Week 12: Carolina Panthers (7-3) @ Miami Dolphins (5-5)

[Jr.]

The Panthers streak continues after their impressive/controversial win over New England. They enter a new area of being expected to win, rather than a surprise. It'll be interesting to see how they handle expectations.

Miami is still dealing with the Incognito mess, but they put that aside last week and beat San Diego. I don't know much about the Dolphins as I've only seen one of their games this year, the OT safety game vs. Cincy.

This will be a telling game for Carolina. Will they maintain their focus and take care of business in a game they are expected to win? Or will there be a hangover effect coming off of a short week after winning the most important game in Charlotte since 2008?

I'm taking Carolina, but I think it's a close game. Carolina 24 Miami 17

I'm not feeling so good about this one, but hopefully my Dolphins can surprise me, build on the win from last week.

I'm so conflicted.

I want to say Miami in this game, but that hurts the Jets, so I'll go Carolina, but it will be close. Thinking 27-24, maybe OT involved.

'Bout time Mike Wallace made a Deep play, Munerlynn was smoked.

7-3 Miami.

Dumb challenge. That was clearly a catch.

[Feared]

Bad challenge from Rivera, Wallace clearly had before knees on the ground before he lost control of that ball.

Yep. He caught the ball, took two steps and then both knees AND one of his elbows hit the ground before the ball popped out.

EDIT- Refs got it right.
