The Hornets are one win away from creating a bit of NC sports history.
A win in the next play-in game would mean the Panthers, Hornets and Hurricanes each made the playoffs in the same season.
That has never happened before. NC pro sports are so back.
Local Journalism at its finest.
UPDATE: Rep Brittany Pettersen (D-CO) missed the Hegseth impeachment vote and her team dodged our questions about her whereabouts.
@MarshallZNews learned Pettersen was at a party for an AIPAC-linked Super PAC.

The biggest upgrades the Panthers could make at the deadline are already on the roster, just on the IR.
-Horn, Jackson will improve the defense immensely.
-Ekwonu if he can return, would stabilize LT.
-No team, even the Jets, are giving up young pass rushers at a discount

For those of us holding Josh Downs stock this is a great day on the market
Trade: the Colts are trading wide receiver Josh Downs to the Chiefs, sources tell @rapsheet and me.

Will McDonald, the young Jets pass rusher, would only cost the team around $900k in guaranteed money, just FYI.
The Carolina #Panthers converted $5.3M of Taylor Moton's salary into signing bonus, creating $3.5M of 2026 cap space.
Updated Cap Hits
2026: $17.4M
2027: $30.2M
2028: $8.7M (void)

Pretty wild that there is no official clip of Sean Payton throwing a challenge flag — the game ended hours ago.
Alan Eck’s crew was assigned to the game.
Through 8 weeks, no crew has thrown LESS flags on the away team. No crew had a greater disparity between Home and Away flags (2.7).
Some really interesting no-calls on the visiting team today.

For as close as the refs are calling #DENvCAR some interesting no calls so far.

All time announcer curse by @RossTuckerNFL lol
The Panthers offense can’t function if Bryce reverts back to check downs all game.
Part of his growth this season was putting the ball down the field.

If you were shocked by the breadth of Democratic victories on election night, you are not alone.
I spoke with NC Dem Party chair Anderson Clayton (@abreezeclayton ) about how they flipped the State House and impacted Congressional races across the state

One name you’re going to hear a lot in the post-election coverage in NC is Anderson Clayton, the head of the State’s Democratic Party. She has pushed to get a candidate in every race in the state since 2023. Last night, those efforts helped flip the State House. #ncpol

With now all precincts reporting High Point Mayor Cyril Jefferson is ahead by nearly 7,000 votes
It appears as if this will be another flip in the NC House delegation.
Just a stunning night for NC Dem candidates. @WFMY #ncpolitics

Kansas, Iowa, Texas, and South Carolina will all send a Democrat Senator to Washington. If you’re reading this—-you weren’t alive the last time it happened.
Because it never has.

I've campaigned with a lot of candidates this year, but only Jamie Ager had me out shooting skeet and moving cows around his farm. Western North Carolina - and our whole country - will be better off with him in Congress. Congratulations, Jamie!
