GREEN BAY — The Carolina Panthers will face the Green Bay Packers on Thursday night after both teams are coming off losses.
Carolina is looking to bounce back on the road after a 43-13 home loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Green Bay is coming off a 20-17 loss at Detroit in which the Packers were penalized seven times in the second half, leading to postgame critiques of the officiating.
