NFC South Chaos Week One | Carolina Panthers News

The NFC South is chaos incarnate as all four teams stumbled in Week 1, each falling to their opening opponents. The Buccaneers, despite locking up Baker Mayfield to a new deal, crumbled with turnovers and a porous defense, losing to the Bengals. The Saints nearly pulled off an overtime win against the Lions but collapsed defensively, while Carolina’s offense exploded for 37 points—only to be shredded by the Bears’ offense, which racked up 59. The Falcons, meanwhile, struggled mightily without a reliable QB, as Cooper Rush battled through pain and threw two picks. With no team showing consistent strength, the division’s future hangs in the balance—and every game feels like a must-win survival battle.
