What Dennis Allen Said About the Carolina Panthers

Want to know what the opposing head coach says about your Carolina Panthers each week? We got you covered. Here are a few quotes from New Orleans Saints header Dennis Allen on this week's matchup with Carolina.

The challenge in facing Carolina

"They've got a lot new going on in terms of what they're doing offensively and defensively, so that presents a little bit of a challenge because there's not as much tape to watch on these guys to evaluate exactly what they're going to do and how they're going to try to attack us. It'll be much like last week where you got to kind of get into the game and be ready to adjust."

If Carolina's offense look like what Frank Reich ran in Indy

"Yeah, I think there's a lot of it. Certainly, we've gone back and watched what they did in Indianapolis last year and even going back to the last time we played them here in the dome in 2019. You try to evaluate everything you can and make sure you're covering all your bases, but certainly, there will be some things that they'll do differently that we'll have to adjust to."

Preparing for DJ Chark

"I feel like he's an explosive playmaker. He's got some vertical speed down the field that obviously we'll have to contend with, so that presents a challenge. They got a lot of weapons they can utilize offensively and we'll have to account for those guys."

Panthers' rushing attack

"I think they're a good running football team. Last year, toward the end of the year I thought they ran the ball exceptionally well. They started off the season this year and ran the ball against Atlanta. It's a tough challenge for us. I think they do a good job front blocking in the run game and I think these backs are kind of downhill, one-cut runners and you'll have to fit it up right because if you don't fit it up right, they can explode it."
