Carolina Panthers vs New York Jets | Week 7 Game Preview

Carolina Panthers vs New York Jets | Week 7 Game Preview

The New York Jets are back on an American football field, still looking for their first win. Apparently, they thought playing on a soccer pitch meant they were only allowed to kick the ball into the net. They welcome the Carolina Panthers, winners in three of their last four, to get back to the 500 mark. The Panthers upset the Cowboys for one of Dave Canales’s biggest wins as the headband for the Panthers. Can Carolina keep pounding to a 4 and3 mark? Can they keep pounding out 30point games on offense? Can Rico Dowel pound out three straight 200 plus yard scrimmage games? Bryce looked cool last week, but Rico was as suave as it gets again. 183 on the ground. His followup to a 200yd rush game the week before. Look at this. D still on his feet. What an afternoon for Rico D. Led the Panthers in receiving yards last week, too. 56 plus a paint job in one of the best revenge game performances in NFL history. Right back to Rico D. Boy, he is running angry today. The Jets defense he tries to keep it rolling against was not the problem in their loss to Denver. The front he faces comes in with confidence after holding JK Dobbins, who had been on a tear to just 40 yardds, only 2.9 yards per carry. Couldn’t juke his way more than just a yard from the line of scrimmage. Then there’s Bryce Young though, looking to build off his best game of 2025 in their win over Dallas. Swaggers in off a season high three TD outing. Season high 114 rate. Season high eight yds per attempt. Young little slip. Watch his right shoulder. Teach that to every young quarterback around the country. Just turn that outside shoulder. Dip and slide. Reset your feet. The New York secondary Bryce gets this week had not really played the pass well in 2025. but in London held Bo Knicks to 174 under six yards per attempt. Incomplete. Ingram was open, but that gets batted down at the line of scrimmage by Sherwood. Green’s defense not at fault versus Denver. Gave him two points on a safety. Held the Broncos to 13 points, five for 15 on third down. Only allowed two red zone trips. The Jets, they’re winning that battle. Pinning the Broncos back on the three yd line. coming with the allout blitz, forcing that hold and taking the lead. Now, that was the first time New York’s opponent hasn’t left with at least 27 points. And now, here comes a Carolina offense that’s been good for 27 plus in three of their last four against Matthew Wright. He delivers. What a game. What a win for the Panthers. Jets secondary only let one Denver pass catcher go for more than 40 yards. Tight end Evan Ingram with 42. S Gardner did most of the work to keep Courtland Sutton to just 17 yards. Dael was the only Panthers pass catcher with more than 40 yards, but six guys hauled in catches of 15 plus. And T-Mac caught two of Young’s TDs. Under pressure, steps away, fires, scores, touchdown. Another one for Tennora McMillan. Young with another game where he only took one sack, too. That’s the fourth time in six games that’s been the case. Jets pass rush, only one sack of Knicks on 30 pass attempts, only have eight for the year. So, still need to bag up QBs better. But what they really need to get better at is having their own quarterback avoid QB hunters. 17 pass attempts, nine complete passes, nine sacks taken. Not since 1998 has anyone ever seen nine completions against nine sacks taken in one game. Fields tries to avoid the rush and cannot. If you’re listening to this and you didn’t play quarterback last week, you threw for more net yards than Justin Fields did last week. Even if you did, you probably didn’t finish your game with minus 10 net passing yards. Panthers secondary looking at a dude who averaged 2.6 yards per attempt, threw for 45 yards, lost 55 yards and sacks on the 17 tries. So Justin Fields shouldn’t have bothered even trying to throw. The results would have been better. Fields throwing again. There’s a first target of Wilson, but he can’t bring it in. Gang Green’s fan base singing to Eminem after last week. They feel like they’ve had it up to here. Watched their offense kick three field goals. Mad enough to scream, but sad enough to tear. Never cracked the 20 yd line. Two for 15 on third down, nine points. That’s rock bottom, they hope. Second down throw. There’s Wilson. Fumble. There’s a flag down. Are they going to rule out it a catch and a fumble or an incomplete pass? The Carolina defense they take on this week didn’t sack Dak Prescott once. No team has fewer sacks this season. So maybe there’s hope. They gave up three touchdowns to Prescott. No picks. A 120 plus rate allowed. Drop wants something deep downfield. And right on Q. It’s Pickkins getting away from Mike Jackson into the open field. Pickkins down near the 20 yd line. Panthers defense has given up 24 plus points in five of six games now too. Hunter Lipkkey the fullback with a touchdown. The first reception for a touchdown in his NFL career. 168 yds and a touchdown allowed to George Pickkins last week. Garrett Wilson up next comes in icy just 13 yardds. Rare not to highlight even one pass catcher from a game. And if you’ve paid attention, we just ask that a guy come up with 40 yards to get a little extra attention. Josh Reynolds led them with 25 along the ground. Bree Hall 2.7 per try versus Denver 59 yards. Panthers defense did show up versus the run, holding Javvante Williams to 29 yardds, just 2.2 yards per carry. And he’d looked really good the previous four games before they got him. This front for Carolina is trying to push this Dallas offensive line. Every week, someone new walks into the game preview bar and wonders if the bartender serving up the previews is real. I can assure you I am as real as the Easter Bunny or Santa Claus. So, don’t worry. Just wanting to be translucent as possible. You mean transparent, right? This will be the ninth time the Panthers and Jets have squabbled. Carolina has won the last three in a row and took the first in 1995. Entering week seven against the New York Jets, the Panthers had succeeded in earning the league’s respect, but had yet to earn a victory. Hey, how about that first victory, huh? Give me one. Ready to begin. Carolina struggled early and it appeared that victory number one would have to wait another week. Now the Panther defense has to make a big play here to keep things close. But with seconds remaining in the first half, the game and the season turned around. Shovel pass intercepted. Mills with the interception. He could go. He’s at the 15 10 5. Mills has a touchdown. With their gutty 26-5 triumph over the New York Jets, the Panthers objective was no longer respectability. It was victories. down. Down.
