Three weeks ago the Panthers were cruising towards a Wild Card berth. Now, Ron Rivera’s job is in jeopardy after three consecutive defeats.  Ron Rivera has more than a playoff berth at stake between now and the end of the regular season. The Panthers head coach may also be working to keep his job for

With Carolina’s season already teetering, the injury to Greg Olsen could be the final dagger. Coming into Week 13, the playoff hopes for the Carolina Panthers were already dwindling. They had lost three straight games to fall completely out of the playoff picture. With the New Orleans Saints running away with the NFC South, the

Cam Newton might be having his best statistical season yet, but the Carolina Panthers have lost three straight and are currently out of the playoff picture. Nobody has ever questioned Cam Newton’s ability to get it done on the football field. He won a national championship at Auburn, as well as a Heisman Trophy, and

After a big win against the Bucs, the 6-2 Carolina Panthers are looking like a legitimate Super Bowl contender. This is the Carolina Panthers team we’ve been waiting to see since they made their run to the Super Bowl back in 2015. Ever since that season, in which they lost in Super Bowl 50 to

After professing as much during the preseason, the Carolina Panthers are using Christian McCaffrey as a workhorse back. Christian McCaffrey was as advertised as a versatile weapon for the Carolina Panthers during his rookie season in 2017, with 80 receptions and usage as a return man. That also meant he got just 117 carries, while

The Panthers haven’t struggled to score points this season, but Cam Newton is going to welcome multiple weapons back against the Giants this Sunday. On one hand, the Panthers bye came at the worst time for a team that was coming off a big win against the Bengals. On the other hand, this team really

Many Panthers fans thought Greg Olsen’s season was open when he limped off the field Week 1. He may actually return to the team in record time. When Greg Olsen is at his best, he’s one of the best pass-catching tight ends in football. Unfortunately for the Panthers, that hasn’t been the case very often

The Panthers aren’t going to rush out to sign Colin Kaepernick anytime soon, but the signing of Eric Reid makes it a possible move for Carolina. Signing Eric Reid proved that the Carolina Panthers are willing to look past a player’s politics if they believe he can help them on the field. If Carolina is

The Panthers blocked out the noise and signed the best safety on the market. Eric Reid will be a massive boost for Ron Rivera’s defense. If not for his political beliefs there’s no question that Eric Reid would have been on an NFL roster Week 1. The rest of the league’s loss is now going

The Panthers have one of the most progressive owners in the NFL and a big hole at safety. Could Carolina be the team to finally sign Eric Reid? Da’Norris Searcy is set to be the latest Panthers starter to land on injured reserve. That leaves the organization with a really interesting decision on their hands. General

Greg Olsen’s absence leaves the Panthers in need of a weapon to torment defenses down the middle. D.J. Moore is the perfect guy to step in for Ron Rivera. When the Panthers selected D.J. Moore in the first round of April’s NFL draft fans immediately expected him to be a big part of the offense.

 Dallas travels to Carolina in one of Week 1’s most intriguing matchups. Cam Newton will have the Panthers ready to fly high against the Cowboys. Week 1 isn’t full of marquee matchups in the NFL, but the Cowboys-Panthers game is one of the best of the weekend. Both teams will want to get off to

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton has high expectations for this season. Cam Newton is one of the most physically gifted quarterbacks in the NFL, perhaps ever. But his physical abilities haven’t translated in the passing game on a consistent basis in his tenure with the Panthers. The Panthers this offseason went out and hired Norv Turner

Protecting Cam Newton is a big priority for the Panthers. Unfortunately for Ron Rivera, his team has a lot of question marks at tackle. The Carolina Panthers offensive line has been a revolving door during the preseason. It certainly represents Ron Rivera’s biggest concern heading into his season opener against the Cowboys, as the team

Every time the Panthers suffer an injury on the offensive line, Taylor Moton gets assigned to a new position. That’s not good for the second-year pro. The Carolina Panthers have suffered an incredible rash of injuries to offensive lineman during the preseason. Daryl Williams, Amini Silatolu and Matt Kalil have all gone down to injuries.

Panthers fans shouldn’t draw too many lasting conclusions from the preseason opener, but there were valuable lessons to learn against the Bills. Ron Rivera is absolutely right. The most important thing about preseason games is escaping them without serious injury. The Panthers appeared to do that last night, but that wasn’t the only lesson from

Amini Silatolu isn’t a Pro Bowl-caliber offensive lineman, but his injury puts the Panthers in a very difficult spot to start the 2018 season. Cam Newton gets a lot of the headlines for the Carolina Panthers offense, but the unit’s success is predicated on running the football. That’s going to be pretty difficult for the

Daryl Williams was quietly one of the best right tackles in football last season. Unfortunately, the Carolina Panthers might not have him at all in 2018. Some fans roll their eyes when NFL head coaches say their first preseason priority is entering the regular season with a healthy roster. Unfortunately for Panthers fans, the team

Christian McCaffrey should get more work this year, but could he end up leading the NFL in touches? Due in good part to Cam Newton, the Carolina Panthers had a top-five rushing attack in the NFL last year. Otherwise Christian McCaffrey and Jonathan Stewart both averaged less than four yards per carry, and C.J. Anderson

Norv Turner’s plan to eliminate Cam Newton’s bad games sounds great in theory, but the Panthers can’t afford to rein their quarterback in too much. When he’s on top of his game, Cam Newton is one of the most dynamic quarterbacks in football. There’s a reason he was able to win the MVP Award back

For a team with Super Bowl aspirations, the Carolina Panthers have a ton of questions heading into 2018.  The Carolina Panthers enter the 2018 season with big-time expectations. Simply contending for a playoff spot isn’t good enough for this team. The expectation in Carolina is for Ron Rivera’s team to be a legitimate Super Bowl
