Last week I was wrong about not looking to play Jalen Coker in fantasy football. It felt like the hype had gone a bit out of control after his huge 33.8 point performance in Week 1.
Through two weeks, both Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young and running back Chuba Hubbard have become must-starts in fantasy football. For Hubbard, it really isn't a surprise.
What a difference just one week can make. After giving up 59 points against Chicago, the Carolina Panthers looked like a completely different team in Sunday's 34-3 win over the Atlanta Falcons.
The Carolina Panthers have to be feeling good about how Week 2 went down. The team went to Atlanta and easily dispatched the Falcons once again. Bryce Young always decides to play his best football against the Falcons, and that remained the case in Week 2.
The Carolina Panthers entered the 2026 season feeling good about their running back position. Chuba Hubbard returned, and Jonathon Brooks was healthy for the first time.
A few trades have rearranged the NFL's backup quarterback ranks, but the dust has mostly settled. From a mix of recent first-round disappointments, aging vets, and young project types, here is how the league's QB2 ranks look for the 2026 season.
The Carolina Panthers picked up a huge win in Week 2 over the Atlanta Falcons. Several players contributed to the win, and there weren’t many poor performances worth mentioning.
Jonathan Brooks just can’t break free of injury issues. The running back from Texas was drafted 46th overall in 2024 by the Carolina Panthers, making him the highest-drafted ball carrier that year.
Bryce Young is quickly putting together the kind of start Carolina Panthers fans have been waiting to see. Through the first two games of the 2026 season, Young has been one of the most productive quarterbacks in the NFL.
The Carolina Panthers had the type of game in Week 2 that all fans love to see. The outcome was never really in question, and the Panthers dominated in all three phases.
Devin Lloyd didn’t just have a great game Sunday. He turned in a performance that is already being talked about as one of the greatest defensive games in Carolina Panthers history.
After a 34-3 win, it's a little harder to find players whose stock is falling. I'm sure the Panthers are perfectly fine with having that problem. Carolina looked nothing like the team we watched give up 59 points against Chicago a week ago.
NFL stars can't play forever, and retirement is coming sooner than later for some of the league's top players. These 25 players could call it quits following the 2026 season.
The Carolina Panthers are riding high right now after throttling the Atlanta Falcons in Week 2. This was exactly what the Panthers needed after an embarrassing showing in Week 1.
The NFL is a physically unforgiving sport, so it is easy to dismiss a player who does not produce big numbers through the first three years of their career.
Two games into the regular season, the Carolina Panthers have two stellar offensive performances. Carolina bounces back after a frustrating Week 1 loss to Chicago, and wins their first game of the season against the division rival Atlanta Falcons.
The Carolina Panthers offense has found some success through two weeks in the passing game but the run game is still leaving meat on the bone, and Jonathon Brooks’ injury won’t help things.
Young played well over his first two starts of the 2026 season after the Panthers elected to not sign him to a contract extension ahead of the campaign.
The Carolina Panthers‘ defense was the story for a bad reason in Week 1. The unit was thrashed for over 500 yards and 59 points by the Chicago Bears. However, the unit was the story for a good reason in Week 2.
In Week 1, the NFC South was the only division in the league in which all four teams failed to come up with a win. In fact, the Carolina Panthers (59), Tampa Bay Buccaneers (33), New Orleans Saints (31), and Atlanta Falcons (20) surrendered a combined 143 points last Sunday.
For the second straight week, the Panthers announced they have elevated S Isaiah Simmons and LB Jeremiah Moon to their active roster. Simmons, 27, was a two-year starter at Clemson and won the Butkus Award as college football’s best linebacker in 2019.
Numerous members of the NFL community believe that first-year Browns HC Todd Monken could bench Watson in favor of Sanders either during or after Cleveland's Week 2 game at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this coming Sunday.
Cooper Rush went 12-for-22 passing with 143 yards, a touchdown, two interceptions and a league-worst 2.6 adjusted QBR in Atlanta's 20-13 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sept. 13.
