What: NFL Week 2
Who: Carolina Panthers vs. Los Angeles Chargers
When: Sunday, Sept. 15, 2024
Where: Bank of America Stadium
Time: 1 p.m. ET
TV: CBS
Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers make the cross-country flight to Carolina for a Sunday afternoon matchup with the underdog Panthers. The game is scheduled to start at 1 p.m. ET with TV coverage on CBS and streaming on-demand.
The Chargers arrive in Carolina as 5-point road favorites after jumping out to a 1-0 start with a Week 1 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. J.K. Dobbins led a revamped Chargers rushing attack with his 10 carries for 135 yards and a touchdown, highlighted by a 12-yard scoring run in the fourth quarter that stretched the Chargers lead to 16-7 with 14:55 to play. Los Angeles leaned on smart, solid play in the debut of coach Jim Harbaugh, which should also be the team blueprint to go into Carolina and improve to 2-0.
Carolina fans saw more of the same in Week 1 from a team that went 2-15 last season with then-rookie quarterback Bryce Young working through early growing pains. Those pains continued into Week 1 of Young’s second season with a 47-10 loss to the New Orleans Saints. Young, last year’s No. 1 overall draft pick completed 13 of 30 for 161 yards and two INTs.
The Panthers and quarterback Bryce Young had a Week 1 that looked a lot like last season, even with new coach Dave Canales, losing 47-10 to NFC South foe the New Orleans Saints.
The Chargers also opened their season against a division rival, except Jim Harbaugh helped guide his squad to a 22-10 victory to start the season.
The NFL has come a long way since the times when players brushed off concussions and stayed in the game or returned too soon.
No more using smelling salts on the bench and getting back in the huddle. No more rubbing dirt on injuries. No more trying to “suck it up” and playing through a potentially serious problem.
The reaction to Tua Tagovailoa’s latest concussion shows how the league, its current and former players, fans and the media have evolved.
Tagovailoa sustained his fourth diagnosed concussion in five years in Miami’s 31-10 loss to Buffalo on Thursday. It was another frightening moment for a quarterback who has a history of head injuries.
Immediately, the concern centered on Tagovailoa’s long-term health. Nobody was wondering when he will play again. Rather, most folks watching were debating whether Tagovailoa should ever lace up his cleats and step on the field again.
“If I’m him, at this point, I’m seriously considering retiring from football,” Hall of Fame tight end Tony Gonzalez said on Amazon Prime Video’s broadcast after the game. “If that was my son, I would be like, ‘It might be time.’ This stuff is not what you want to play around with.”
Former Bengals and Rams tackle Andrew Whitworth pointed to the difference between concussions and other injuries.
“There’s so many injuries we can have surgeries for, there’s so many things we can fix,” Whitworth said. “But a head trauma and getting knocked out on the field? There’s really not much you can ever do about that. You can’t go to a doctor and say, ‘Hey, fix my brain and the damage I’ve done to it.’”
More education about brain injuries has led to strict guidelines that help protect players, sometimes from themselves.
The league and the NFL Players Associations instituted concussion protocols in 2011 when Colt McCoy took a helmet-to-helmet hit in a game and returned without being tested for a concussion.
The protocols have been expanded a few times since. There are independent certified athletic trainers, or ATC spotters, watching in a booth and monitoring the players on the field to have someone removed from the game if they see an impact to the head. Team trainers, coaches or physicians, teammates, game officials or sideline unaffiliated neurotrauma consultants also can initiate the protocol.
All players who undergo any concussion evaluation on game day must have a follow-up evaluation conducted the next day by a member of the medical staff. Players have to pass various testing to get cleared to play again.
The Carolina Panthers are firmly on the back foot just one week into the 2024 season. Dave Canales' first game as head coach was a complete catastrophe, conceding 47 points and putting together a disjointed offensive performance en route to an embarrassing loss that sapped any optimism about this team's chances for good measure.
Canales is confident this won't become the norm as the campaign progresses. He'll be looking for an immediate response when the Los Angeles Chargers come to town for Carolina's home opener. Anything less won't be well received by the fans in attendance.
Winning changes everything. It always has and always will. Jim Harbuagh's done that everywhere he's been and plans to continue this trend with the Chargers. The Panthers must be ready for a battle during a game that could be won or lost in the trenches.
