3. Panthers Offensive Line
The Panthers’ offensive line will have their hands full in this game against an extremely strong front seven in Tampa Bay. The offensive line is still a work in progress for Carolina but they will have to get it together fast in preparation.
Matt Paradis will have to step up in his second season with the Panthers. They made a trade for Russell Okung to play left tackle with Taylor Moton at the other guard position.
John Miller and Dennis Daley are at the guards with Michael Schofield as a swing player off the bench. There will be a lot to handle for this offensive line against Tampa Bay.
Carolina is a team that likes to run the football and play fast. Both of these game plans require the offensive line to be in tact, healthy, and productive. This is a confidence game for a group that could use some.
