Panthers @ Dolphins NFL Week 12 Early Slate 1pm ET

The Carolina Panthers are streaking and have won six in a row as they beat the Patriots in the Queen City, NC last Monday. The Dolphins come in having grabbed a huge "W" last week as they are still in the AFC Wild Card Race at 5-5. The Panthers are 7-3 and just a game behind the NFC South leading Saints if the Panthers can get a "W" in the 305.

The Panthers need to stick to that Recipe of "Balance Attack" in RBs DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart doing what they do. Force the Phins Front to play the run and that should open up that Passing Game as Panthers WR Steve Smith has Caddy's in Brandon LaFell and Ted Ginn Jr.. Can the Panthers sustain long drives and put up 7's on a Phins "D" that has been somewhat solid throughout 2013?

The Dolphins need a Run Game and they need RB Lamar Miller to step up. If the Phins and Tannehill cannot find "Ground and Pound" they will be forced to throw and that is being predictable. Which in essence means that Panthers Front can pin their ears back and get after the QB and that is not what the Phins want to see. Can the Phins get WR Mike Wallace the Star of not "60 Minutes" but $60 Million? Where is WR Brian Hartline as he has also been part of a disappearing act in Phins Nation? Phins ""D led by DE Cameron Wake need to stay disciplined and keep QB Cam in front of them and when he eludes the Pocket run him right to the boundary...it they don't...trouble is lurking. Phins Backers Dannell Ellerbe and Phillip Wheeler will be keys slowing down the Panthers Attack.

Winner: PANTHERS 23-12...Panthers "D" dominates as Cam and the Offense stay on track and do not turn the Pig over
