Four consecutive losses by the Carolina Panthers led to more uncertainty around the franchise this week. Quarterback Cam Newton‘s health, the future of coach Ron Rivera and what players we are watching (or have watched) play their final snaps in a Panthers uniform are all up in the air.
Despite the slide, Carolina remains in the playoff picture as they currently reside one game out of the wild card but have a difficult schedule ahead to finish the season. Two games remain against divisional leader New Orleans, but a loss this week would seemingly make those games irrelevant.
