What are five of the most important Carolina Panthers storylines to keep an eye on this season?
The 2021 season will bring back some normalcy after a crazy 2020, and the Carolina Panthers are hoping they return to the playoffs after missing the postseason in four of the last five years.
Head coach Matt Rhule, entering his second year in Carolina, will now have a full offseason under his belt and should have a lot more of his system implemented.
The Panthers sort of got a pass last season in a year that was looked at as the first of rebuilding following the retirement of Luke Kuechly and release of Cam Newton, but the trade for quarterback Sam Darnold and big additions on offense and defense has gotten fans hungry for a winning season sooner than later.
