NFC Power Rankings: Week 12 Edition

3. Carolina Panthers (7-3) Last week: 3

The Monday night game Carolina played against New England was the best we’ve seen thus far. Unfortunately, like in New Orleans, referees had to intervene and mar the end.

It was a pass interference all day from Kuechly on Gronk. The fact that the Pats didn’t get that call is shocking, but it should have positioned them at the one yard line.

Carolina benefitted from the “pick-up” and will head to Miami to take on the stumbling Dolphins.

“Scam” Newton and boys should leave there with a smile on their faces.
