For your own health, never play against the Carolina Panthers

The Carolina Panthers are not a good team.
They lost Christian McCaffrey and Robbie Anderson.
They’re one of only two teams to have undergone a head coaching change this year.
Yet, somehow, playing them in 2022 is bad news for your future.
The loss was devastating as Cleveland led by two scores with a minute and a half to go in the game.
In Week 2, the New York Giants beat the Panthers 19-16.
You’d think the Rams would be safe because they played Carolina in Week 6 and had a bye Week 7, but the moment Los Angeles returned to the field, even with a well-rested squad, they couldn’t avoid the curse.
Chicago-Atlanta is a game that could go either way.
Sure, Justin Fields has been red hot, but the Falcons seem to be a team that just doesn’t go away.
On the other side, the Bengals absolutely should not lose to Pittsburgh.
The Seahawks play the Panthers in Week 14 and then get their second matchup against San Francisco.
Well, guess who the Lions play immediately after facing Carolina in Week 16.
Thankfully, this game will be in Detroit, but if the curse is indeed real, then it won’t matter.
