  "account": "The Carolina Panthers suffered a 21-18 loss to the Cleveland Browns in Week 3, falling short of their opportunity to lead the division. Despite this defeat, the team managed to showcase a few positive performances. Pro Football Focus compiled the best and worst Pro Football Focus grades from the Panthers' Week 3 game against the Browns.\n\nOn offense, offensive linemen Damien Lewis, Brycen Tremayne, Mitchell Evans, Tommy Tremble, and quarterback Bryce Young had the best grades, with Lewis's pass and run blocking grades being the highest on the team. Running back AJ Dillon, running back Tommy Tremble, and tight end Mitchell Evans contributed with receptions, as did quarterback Bryce Young, who led the NFL in passing yards heading into the final game.\n\nOn the defensive side, linebacker Tyrel Dodson, defensive tackle Derrick Brown, defensive tackle Lee Hunter, outside linebacker Trevis Gipson, and cornerback Akayleb Evans had the best grades, with Dodson recording six tackles and three stops in his debut. However, safety Tre von Moehrig, safety Zakee Wheatley, safety Lathan Ransom, outside linebacker Princely Umanmielen, and cornerback Mike Jackson struggled, with Moehrig having the lowest grade and Ransom missing tackles.",
