What Todd Bowles Said About the Carolina Panthers

Concerns with the Panthers' offense, if any

"I think you got to stop the run game. The quarterback does a heck of a job in the pocket, he's very elusive. He's been sacked a lot but he's gotten away from way more. I think he's been sacked 40-something times, but he's gotten away about 60-something times, so that's going to be a problem within itself. When he has time to throw, he's very accurate. He can throw the football. We think they're dangerous. This is a division rivalry - the records are out the window."

Facing an interim coach

"I mean, you can't revamp your team in a week. Chris (Tabor) is a great coach. He's been a great special teams coach. He's going to be a great head coach. You can't revamp your team in a week, so you concentrate on the scheme. I'm sure they'll tweak some things but we got to worry about the things we can correct ourselves and go out and play them and see what happens."

Facing a 1-win team

"We don't care if a team is 12-0. We worry about us. If we can correct the things we need to correct, we'll be fine. It doesn't matter what the other team's doing."
