Carolina Panthers fantasy football outlook for Week 10 at Cardinals

Christian McCaffrey – Carolina Panthers RB

Christian McCaffrey had a nice return to action during an otherwise abysmal offensive performance against the New England Patriots. The All-Pro running back had 18 total touches for 106 total yards leading to a shade under 15 fantasy points.

Unfortunately, Sam Darnold had McCaffrey wide open for a touchdown at one point in the game and didn’t see him. Just another reason why his time with the Carolina Panthers might be done.

Start or Sit in Week 10?

START.

Expect Carolina to lean heavily on McCaffrey during this game to take the pressure off of P.J. Walker.

The Arizona Cardinals have allowed 111 yards per game on the ground. But we know McCaffrey is versatile enough to feast despite the increased attention that’s come his way over the last three seasons.

However, touchdowns may be tough to come by. Arizona has only allowed two scores to opposing running backs all season and their defensive front remains one of the strengths despite J.J. Watt’s recent injury ruling him out for the season.
