Rico Dowdle is the X-FACTOR to beat the Rams

Описание: Rams vs Panthers X-Factor | How Carolina Could Pull the Upset

During the Rams vs Panthers Wild Card discussion on The JV Show, JV and Steve break down the narrow path Carolina would need to follow to pull off a playoff upset, highlighting Rico Dowdle as the Panthers’ X-factor. JV explains that for Carolina to have a chance, the offense must run through Dowdle’s versatility as both a runner and receiver, easing the pressure on an inconsistent Bryce Young and allowing him to play a clean, mistake-free game. The segment revisits Bryce Young’s standout Week 13 performance against the Rams, while emphasizing that replicating that level of efficiency under playoff pressure is a major ask. JV and Steve also discuss Carolina’s defensive contributors, home-field advantage, and why the Panthers’ only realistic path to victory depends on controlling the run game, limiting turnovers, and avoiding a high-scoring shootout against Matthew Stafford and the Rams.
