The Denver Broncos will face a different quarterback than expected this weekend against the Panthers

The Denver Broncos take on the Carolina Panthers at Empower Field at Mile High this Sunday (Oct. 27), and when they do, the Panthers quarterback will not be who most expected it to be…

The Carolina Panthers are going back to their former first overall pick in the NFL Draft, Bryce Young, to start at quarterback after veteran Andy Dalton suffered a sprained thumb in a car crash on Tuesday.

Young, who was benched after just two starts in September, has appeared in four games and has no touchdown passes to three interceptions.

Dalton lead the Panthers to their only win of the season over the Raiders in his first start. But since then Dalton and Carolina have lost four in a row. Dalton has thrown for 989 yards and has seven touchdowns and six interceptions.

Regardless of who is playing QB, if the Broncos want to compete this season, they have to beat a really bad Carolina team.
