The Carolina Panthers have endured a significant amount of injuries to not have yet played a meaningful football game as both sides of the football (offense and defense) have suffered losses but none more significant than the offensive line.
Despite losing three potential starters at right tackle, left tackle and left guard, coach Ron Rivera keeps shuffling players around working to find a full time solution – albeit hopefully briefly – until Matt Kalil (LT), Amini Silatolu (LG) and Daryl Williams (RT) can return.
These absences have undoubtedly had an effect on how the media is portraying the Panthers this season but the team has shown little fault during preseason play.
