The Philadelphia Eagles face the Carolina Panthers on Thursday, Oct. 12 in Week 6 of the 2017 NFL season. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
Thursday Night Football will treat us to a pretty solid matchup in Week 6. Two teams with 4-1 records will meet in Charlotte as the Carolina Panthers host the Philadelphia Eagles. Both teams have become prominent in the NFC and despite there being a short week of rest, this should be a good game to catch.
Carolina has their star quarterback healthy again as 2015 NFL MVP Cam Newton is throwing the ball around like the player we saw a couple of seasons ago. They’ve also become more dangerous on offense with the addition of running back Christian McCaffrey, their first-round pick out of Stanford.
On defense, they may not be as scary as they once were, but they’re still good enough to slow down any offense no matter how good. And the one they’re facing this week it really good.
Second-year quarterback Carson Wentz has his team firing on all cylinders right now and he’s looking like one of the best young signal-callers in the game. The recent uptick in play from running back LeGarrette Blount has helped balance things out for him, and their defense is strong enough to win them games as well.
A compelling matchup that’s must-see TV. For anyone who can’t get it on television, check out NFL Sunday Ticket for streaming services or Game Pass for replays.
