After the way the Steelers looked last week, I have to say the Panthers should win and cover this one.  The Panthers defense is great, with or without Hardy, and should give Big Ben a rough day.  Cam Newton is back and that's not good news for the Steelers.  The Panthers have a chance to make a real statement this week and prove to the league that they are a top-notch team.  They can do that with a big win against the Steelers this week.  I obviously can't see this game being incredibly high scoring, but I can see Carolina winning convincingly.  The Steelers will really need Roethlisberger to step up, as he has done before in big games, but it won't be easy this week.  I think that this one just comes down to the better team at home.  If the Panthers can shutdown Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell, or at least prevent them from having big games, they will win convincingly.  For some reason I see Kelvin Benjamin having a really big week.

PANTHERS 27 - STEELERS 17
