The Carolina Panthers will take on the Patriots.

The Carolina Panthers will face off against doing the Patriots in the third preseason game for both teams. Going into the home of the defending Super Bowl champions is no easy task. However, Carolina has shown to be a resilient bunch, so if anyone is up for the challenge it’s them. After what was a tough loss last week, the Panthers need to rebound and have a great game. This is the game where everyone truly sees the progress of the team. Hopefully, they have progressed well.

.Brady and Cam Newton will be seeing their first action of the preseason in this one. It will be a battle of two great quarterbacks, and although it is preseason, you can bet this will have an atmosphere of a regular season game. This is a great measuring stick for a team that wants to get back to the playoffs. A win here would do wonders for morale, and give Carolina the momentum it needs heading into their fourth and final game.

Without further ado, I take a look at some key things to watch for in Thursday’s game.
