NFL preview: Eagles-Panthers among the best Week 7 games
TIM TAI / Staff PhotographerThe only thing to say about the rest of the Week 7 schedule is that it has to be more competitive than that Thursday night debacle. Here's a look:
Carolina (3-2) at Eagles (3-3), 1 p.m. (Fox29)
The Panthers' two losses were on the road. Panthers quarterback Cam Newton isn't throwing the ball downfield as much under first-year offensive coordinator Norv Turner, but he isn't throwing picks or taking as many sacks, either. Entering this season, Newton was sacked an average of 37 times per year. He's been dropped eight times in five games. A defeat would give the Eagles more losses than they had all of last season, and it's not even Halloween. Line: Eagles by 4.5.
