The Dallas Cowboys take on the Carolina Panthers December 15th, 2024 at Bank of America Stadium at 1:00 pm
The Dallas Cowboys will take on the Carolina Panthers at Bank of America Stadium on December 15th, 2024. The Cowboys, sitting at 5-8, have faced significant challenges, particularly with the absence of Dak Prescott, who is out for the season. This places increased pressure on their rushing attack led by Rico Dowdle, who has been effective with 731 yards on the ground. CeeDee Lamb’s questionable status further complicates their offensive dynamics. On the defensive side, the Cowboys face issues with key players like DeMarcus Lawrence and Zack Martin on injured reserve, impacting their ability to contain opponents. The Panthers, with a 3-10 record, have their own hurdles, notably with Bryce Young under center. Young has shown flashes of potential but has struggled with consistency, tallying 7 touchdowns against 7 interceptions. The Panthers’ running game relies heavily on Chuba Hubbard, who has been productive with 1,011 rushing yards and 8 touchdowns. However, the loss of Miles Sanders to injury limits their backfield depth. Defensively, the Panthers are missing key contributors like Derrick Brown, which could expose gaps against the Cowboys’ offense. Given both teams’ defensive inefficiencies and the Cowboys’ offensive struggles without Prescott, the game is expected to be a low-scoring affair. The Cowboys’ edge in offensive efficiency over the Panthers, combined with Carolina’s defensive vulnerabilities, suggests a slight advantage for Dallas despite their injury woes. However, the absence of key playmakers on both sides is likely to suppress scoring opportunities.
