Basically we're expected to win 8 games or more, but finish 3rd in division behind Saints and Falcons, miss the playoffs.  

Panthers over/under win total

Odds provided by FanDuel Sportsbook – last updated May 14 at 11:18 p.m. ET; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list.

  • 7.5 wins: (Over: -122 | Under: +100)

The Panthers added Young to the offense, which is seen as an obvious upgrade. Even if Dalton were to start, serving as a bridge before Young is deemed ready, it should be viewed as an upgrade over the previous QBs Baker Mayfield, then Sam Darnold.

In addition, the team leaned upon RB D’Onta Foreman, who ended up in Chitown. However, Sanders is an obvious upgrade and proven talent in this league. In addition, while Moore was the obvious No. 1 last season, the team added veteran talent with Chark and Thielen, joining up-and-comers WR Terrace Marshall Jr., Laviska Shenault Jr. and Shi Smith. The team brought back WR/KR Damiere Byrd for veteran stability, too.

The defense should also be better, especially in the back end, with Bell joining DBs Jeremy Chinn and Donte’ Jackson. CB Jaycee Horn also looked like a budding superstar before suffering a broken wrist in December. This is a defense on the rise.

With obvious upgrades across the board at key positions, it’s not hard to believe this team will be at least 1 game better in the standings, if not more. As such, OVER 7.5 WINS (-122) is a great play.

Panthers Super Bowl odds

  • +6000 (bet $100 to win $6,000)

OK, let’s pump the brakes a bit. While I believe the Panthers could easily challenge for a Wild Card spot, and perhaps a division title, this isn’t a roster constructed to challenge for a championship just yet.

In fact, the Panthers are tied with the Chicago Bears, Los Angeles Rams, Pittsburgh Steelers and Washington Commanders at +6000, and that’s the 4th-longest odds to hoist the Lombardi Trophy.

I believe the Panthers are going to struggle to get above .500, although it’s certainly possible. But this isn’t a team in the same stratosphere as the Kansas City Chiefs (+600), favorites to repeat as Super Bowl champs, or the defending NFC champ Philadelphia Eagles (+850), who have the 2nd-shortest odds.

At +6000, Carolina has an implied probability of winning the Super Bowl of 1.64% or 60/1 fractional odds.

The Arizona Cardinals and Houston Texans have the longest odds at +18000.

I would AVOID tying up money on a futures play on Carolina to win the Super Bowl, at least this season. If Young pans out, and the team jells together nicely, perhaps 2024 is when the organization will make move up to contender status.

Will the Panthers make the playoffs?

  • Yes +168 | No -210

This is a tremendous value play, and perhaps the best futures option on the board involving the Panthers.

The NFC South is wide open, and the Panthers should be able to contend for a division title, which would obviously net them a playoff spot. It’s not out of the realm of possibility for a Wild Card spot to be in play, too.

Carolina’s schedule gets a little hairy around the holidays, including 3 consecutive road games in Tennessee, Tampa and New Orleans from Weeks 12 through 14. We’ll know where this team is after that stretch.

I think the best path to a playoff spot is winning this division, and a 9-8 or 10-7 record might be able to get that done. I think the Panthers are certainly capable of such.

Odds to win NFC South Division

  • Saints +125 (bet $100 to win $125)
  • Falcons (bet $100 to win $260)
  • Panthers +350 (bet $100 to win $350)
  • Buccaneers (bet $100 to win $550)

The Panthers made a lot of nice upgrades across the board, from the skill positions on offense, to the defensive coordinator, defensive line and the coaching staff, as a whole. This is a team on the rise.

The NFC South was won with a losing record last season, as Tampa Bay get to raise a division title banner despite going just 8-9. Everyone else was 7-10, as it was that close. Carolina and Tampa Bay were each 4-2 inside the division, and if the Panthers can duplicate those numbers, the rest of the schedule could net them at least 5 or 6 more wins.

The Saints added QB Derek Carr, and the Falcons added an important piece by grabbing RB Bijan Robinson in the draft, while the Bucs have a new signal caller in former Panthers QB Mayfield. Everyone made upgrades, but Carolina might have made the best, and most dramatic additions. This is a retooled team which is a great value, giving bettors a chance to multiply their initial wager by 3 1/2 times. Go for it!

 

Panthers odds to win NFC

  • +3000 (bet $100 to win $3,000)

I like the Panthers to potentially win the NFC South Division, or maybe even make the playoffs as a Wild Card. However, I am not about to waste lettuce picking Carolina over the likes of the Eagles (+330), San Francisco 49ers (+350), Dallas Cowboys (+600) or even the Detroit Lions (+1000) to represent the NFC in Super Bowl 57 in Las Vegas.

This team isn’t that far away from competing for a championship if owner David Tepper and general manager Scott Fitterer didn’t miss on Young. However, you should AVOID tying up good money on the Panthers to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl.

Makes sense. We have no idea how Young will look until the season begins. 

I would put my money on ATL this year.

 

Note: I want to be wrong and it's us who wins the division.

Ditto on atl.  I think their offense is going to be an issue.  
 

I think however we can win seven with dalton.

WTF - Dalton is not even going to start Game 1.  If he does, then we chose the wrong QB.

This is not NFCS of 2022.  Atlanta, Saints and Buc did not stand still, huge changes in the division.

7.5 sounds like a reasonable guess.  New HC, DC, Wr1,Wr2,RB, TE, injured OL, rookie OC, rookie QB, rookie WR#?, injured CB new base D scheme.....a LOT of moving parts.  It seems unlikely that we'll hit the ground running week 1 (on the road against a division rival).   

If we do, look out.

I would've probably put our O/U at 8.5 and considered the Saints the division favorite. Carr is the best QB in the division by a considerable margin until proven otherwise. I don't get the Falcons hype but I wasn't high on Ridder as a prospect either. The Bucs are tanking. I just hope they whiff in their efforts to land Maye or Williams.

This fanbase hasn't been the same since the Keep Pounding era.

 

What happened to you guys do you have no self confidence in your team anymore?

 

The division is for the taking and you guys on here crowning Atlanta before the season even starts.smh

This upcoming season is a total unknown. The defense is transitioning to a 3-4, we have a rookie QB, and CMC and DJ are gone. 7 or 8 wins sounds reasonable. If we come out and win 11 or 12 games with the current roster and rookie QB, then I would expect a multiple SB mega-dynasty with unstoppable Young. I'm expecting 7 or 8 wins.

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
