An interview with rookie offensive lineman Taylor Moton (starts at 42:10) spans Call of Duty, what the tailgate is like at Western Michigan, and why the Panthers run game is starting to click. But first, Zack and Josh discuss whether Jonathan Stewart should be benched, whether Cam runs too much, and if the Panthers can ride the #1 defense in the NFL to the Super Bowl.

Zack & Josh are back to discuss the trade of Kelvin Benjamin to Carolina North, talk a little bit about Tampa Bay and Atlanta, but mostly talk about why you certainly have the right to freak out about the trade, but maybe you shouldn't. Where does KB rank on the list of #1 WRs? What can we expect from Devin Funchess? Does Josh trick Zack with the old switcharoo? Listen and find out!

Do the Panthers run the ball up the middle on 1st-and-10 at every opportunity? Should Panthers fans be worried after a tough loss to the Eagles on Thursday Night? Is Jonathan Stewart washed up? What happened on that last drive? Are there reasons for the rushing game issues and can they be fixed? Josh and Zack have all/some of the answers. Or they don't. Just listen.

Josh & Zack describe a wild weekend in Detroit that included a "run" for Josh, a win for the Panthers, and a sickness that Zack brought back with him. The Panthers won the game, but can they learn from the mistakes they made? They discuss what it means to be a bust, what Graham Gano's nickname is, and Worley vs. Seymour. Then it's on to Philly and whether the Panthers caught a break because of Lane Johnson & Fletcher Cox's injury.
