The Carolina Panthers entered the Week 14 matchup at 4-8 fresh off of a bye week. The Denver Broncos were also 4-8 following a hard-fought divisional loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Neither team was in the playoff race but it still figured to be a competitive game. It ended up being a more high-scoring contest than most people expected. The final score was 32-27 with the Broncos getting the win in Charlotte. This was another tough, close loss for the Panthers. The silver lining is that Carolina will likely move up further in draft position after suffering its ninth defeat.
