Carolina Panthers Schedule 2021
Preseason (1 - 2)
Week-1: Sun, Aug 15 @ Indianapolis L
Eason efficient, Ehlinger shines late as Colts beat Panther
Ehlinger, a sixth-round pick out of Texas, began his NFL debut with an interception. But he regrouped and drove the Colts to a tying touchdown capped by his 2-point conversion run. Carolina's Joey Slye converted field goals from 29, 28 and 41 yards.
Week-2: Sat, Aug 21: vs Baltimore L
Ravens tie NFL record with 19th straight preseason win, 20-3
Tyler Huntley threw for 187 yards for the Ravens, who equaled the mark set by Vince Lombardi's Green Bay Packers, who had a 19-game winning streak in exhibitions from 1959 to 1962. Sam Darnold had his first action at quarterback for Carolina, but left after one seven-play series.
Week-3: Fri, Aug 27: vs Pittsburgh W
Darnold throws 2 TDs, Panthers smother Steelers backups 34-9
Darnold, who has seen most of his action in joint practices rather than games this preseason, spent much of the first quarter under duress despite playing against a defense resting all of its starters. Steelers QB Dwayne Haskins started and struggled, completing just 9 of 16 passes for 108 yards with one interception and one late touchdown
Regular Season (2 - 0)
Week-1: Sun, Sep 12 vs New York Jets W
Darnold, defense lead Panthers past Jets 19-14 in opener.
Darnold maintained his even-keeled persona after throwing for 279 yards and a touchdown and running for another score. Sam Darnold, acquired from the Jets for three draft picks this past offseason. Six different players were in sacks for the Panthers. New York Jets Zach Wilson kept battling, though and finished 20 of 37 for 258 yards with two touchdown passes to Cory Davis in his first career start.
Week-2: Sun, Sep 19 vs New Orleans W
Darnold throws 2 TDs, Panthers D dominates Saints 26-7
With an effective running game led by Christian McCaffrey, a reliable set of wide receivers that includes D.J. Moore and defense that is playing lights-out, Darnold is off to a 2-0 start as Carolina's starting quarterback. Carolina's defense held Alvin Kamara to 5 yards on eight carries as the Saints struggled with five of the team's offensive coaches out because of COVID-19 protocols.

Are 2-0 Carolina Panthers a playoff team? DE Brian Burns thinks so: 'Yeah. Facts.'
If Panthers history is any indication, 2-0 means good things for this squad. This is the eighth time the Panthers have been here, and six of their previous seven 2-0 starts resulted in a trip to the playoffs, with 2002 being the lone exception. The 2015 and 2003 teams made it to the Super Bowl, and the 1996 team reached the NFC title game.

Texans done in by inability to run ball in loss to Panthers
Carolina's top-ranked defense sacked Mills four times and held him to 168 yards passing. Mills was pressed into action after Tyrod Taylor suffered a hamstring injury last Sunday and was placed on injured reserve. Mills threw for a touchdown and avoided big mistakes after he threw an interception in the second half of Sunday's loss at Cleveland. But the Texans (1-2) finished with just 42 yards on the ground, and that forced Mills into tough down-and-distance situations as Houston punted six times.

Carolina Panthers News
My take from new Panthers CB Stephon Gilmore after his press conference today: 1. He will bring a calming impact and leadership on a young secondary that can't help but help: 2. There are no guarantees he will be ready by Week 7 for the Giants but he will work hard to make that happen; 3. He really wanted to play at Carolina, saying he probably would have signed here had he been released; 4. He wants to prove his worth to get an extension, whether here or somewhere else.
To say Panthers cornerback Donte Jackson was happy about the trade with New England for Pro Bowl corner Stephon Gilmore would be an understatement. "That's pretty dope, man,'' Jackson said. He added it let the defense know management is confident they can win now.
Panthers GM Scott Fitterer, who is a neighbor of cornerback Stephon Gilmore in the Charlotte area, when I asked if he had any neighbors who could play left tackle with Cam Erving in doubt for the Eagles with a neck injury. "Maybe during Halloween I'll go knock on the doors and ask,'' he said with a laugh. "Unfortunately, I haven't found one, yet.''
To summarize the last few hours for the Panthers: X They traded for Pro Bowl CB Stephon Gilmore, who will be eligible to play Week 7. X They saw running back Christian McCaffrey return to practice and he moved well during the media portion of practice. Officially, he was limited. X They may not have their leading tackler, LB Shaq Thompson (foot), or LT, Cameron Erving (neck), on Sunday. Both were not at practice.

Panthers center Matt Paradis on the frustration shown by wide receiver Robby Anderson late on Sunday. "Hey, I was not aware. I didn't notice or hear anything about it until today. We want to win. Everyone on this team, we want to win. We want to play well. When it comes down to it, we have to execute our jobs. I don't even know what was said. But I know Robby. That dude wants to win, and I trust him.''
Panthers coach Matt Rhule says quarterback Sam Darnold, who has thrown five interceptions in the past two games, just needs to play within the system. "Sam needs to take what's given him. If we do that we'll get back on track quickly.''
One reason Robby Anderson could have been upset/frustrated during his sideline fit on Sunday. He had 2 catches on 7 targets for the game, and now has 12 catches on 29 targets for the season. That's a 41.4 percent catch rate. A year ago, his catch rate was 68.5 percent with 95 catches on 136 targets. And he was supposed to be Sam Darnold's favorite target.
The Panthers (3-2) gave one away in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Eagles. They lost because they couldn't protect quarterback Sam Darnold, who was pressured on 18 of his 42 dropbacks (43%),the highest pressure percentage this season. Darnold didn't respond well, either, throwing three interceptions.
