After an impressive Carolina Panthers victory over the Chiacgo Bears to start preseason play, the team faltered at home. Following two intense practices against the Buffalo Bills, the Panthers quarterbacks struggled and the offense failed to generate any momentum as the visiting Bills took preseason game number two.
For the sixth consecutive season, Carolina now matches up against the New England Patriots. Meeting every year in preseason play, except for two when the teams met during the regular season, Carolina is 3-3 against the historic franchise – including victories in both of the games that counted.
A solid test for both teams, the Panthers and Patriots have historically met during the third preseason game where starters see the most amount of action.
