Carolina Panthers Pass D #1? (1 Viewer)

Are they good or is this a mirage? They've played some weak teams recently in TB, Buff and Wash, and the good teams they faced have seemed to do damage on turnovers an maybe not needed to pass. I've got a lot of AZ players and I'm curious to see if this pass D unit is to be feared or not.

A lot of this is because their run defense is bad. They allow about 130 yards per game and 4.5 yards per carry. They have also been losing by enough points that teams don't have to throw much. They have had fewer pass attempts per game against them than any other team. They are allowing 65% completion percentage. They also have the fewest interceptions of any team. Overall yardage allowed can be very misleading.

Another skewed stat due to bad opponents & horrendous Run-D the first 6 weeks causing teams to run more.

Considering Delhomme's 15 turnovers alone, thats alot of short fields. They would have given up alot of passing yards, but the end zone keeps getting in the way.
