Where we have them finishing

Why

The Panthers won their Division last season with a below .500 record, but had tremendous upside. Bryce Young showed flashs of being a solid QB and Tet had an amazing rookie season. Loosing Rico adds questions to their run game, as Brooks finally will be getting the role he has been working for for the last two seasons, but that has to call for some concern there.
— Nick, 8-9
This team spent big money in the offseason, but their schedule this season is brutal. Hard to see this team finish above .500 without a Bryce Young breakout season, which I also think is in the cards.
— Nico, 7-10
The Panthers went 8-9, scoring just 18.3 PPG, while Bryce Young had an 87.8 passer rating with 23 TDs and 11 INTs. Tet McMillan had 1,014 yards and 7 TDs, while Jalen Coker is set for a bigger role. The talent is there, and the defense is good enough to compete, but Bryce remains wildly inconsistent. I’d love to be wrong, but 6-11 allows me to be realistic and leave room to be shocked.
— Brooklyn, 6-11
