Panthers | D.J. Moore targeted nine times in loss Sun Sep 13, 06:23 PM
Carolina Panthers WR D.J. Moore checked in with four catches and 54 yards on nine targets in Week 1 against the Las Vegas Raiders.
| Footballguys view: Moore wasn't a frequent target for Teddy Bridgewater in a disappointing game for teams that drafted him. If he doesn't put up a better game against the Bucs next week, he might not be an automatic start in Week 3 against the Chargers. |

Panthers | Christian McCaffrey just misses 100 yards Sun Sep 13, 06:14 PM
Carolina Panthers RB Christian McCaffrey rushed 23 times for 96 yards and two touchdowns in Week 1 against the Las Vegas Raiders and he added three grabs for 38 yards on four targets.
| Footballguys view: McCaffrey wasn't heavily involved as a receiver, but his two rushing scores still made for a big day. You'd like to see him get more targets, but McCaffrey looks every bit the player he was last year and worth the #1 pick. |

Panthers | Teddy Bridgewater sharp in Carolina debut Sun Sep 13, 06:10 PM
Carolina Panthers QB Teddy Bridgewater completed 22-of-34 passes for 270 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Week 1 against the Las Vegas Raiders, and he also ran four times for 26 yards.
| Footballguys view: Bridgewater had a chance to lead a stirring comeback but Matt Rhule somehow called a fourth and short play that didn't put the ball in the hands of Christian McCaffrey. McCaffrey getting two rushing scores held down Bridgewater's numbers. Teddy is just a low QB2/Superflex against the Bucs next week. |

Carolina Panthers TE Ian Thomas (toe) suffered a toe injury Monday, Aug. 31. X-rays returned negative and head coach Matt Rhule said Thomas would be back 'soon.'
| Footballguys view: The team has Thomas as their lead tight end, so this is a concerning situation with the regular season opener less than two weeks away. Thomas is on a roster with a ton of pass-catching talent, so Fantasy GMs should consider him more of a low-end TE2 this season. |
