The Carolina Panthers have had some issues this season.
After a strong 3-0 start, they’ve struggled. While Joe Brady didn’t make his case for being retained better, the combination of the team trading for Sam Darnold on top of his injury really didn’t aid his performance.
Darnold started off the season hot. He was injured, along with superstar RB Christian McCaffrey. The team with McCaffrey versus without him is night and day, and Carolina was unable to move the ball without their lead back.
That looked poorly on Brady, who is in charge of the offense's performance.
