Chris Halicke (7-6): The Steelers typically do very well against Carolina. However, the circumstances are far different this time around. Most pressing is a reeling run defense that's been gashed by the Falcons and Ravens. Though the Panthers don't present the same type of threat with a mobile quarterback, they are averaging 154.6 rushing yards per game since trading Christian McCaffrey.
