There are always some weird storylines to watch throughout an NFL season. It's one of the most unpredictable sports on earth, where everything could change in the blink of an eye. This year promises to be no different, and the Carolina Panthers will not be exempt.
The Panthers have higher expectations on their shoulders this season. Nobody is expecting them to mount a Super Bowl bid in the second year under head coach Dave Canales. However, fans are anticipating a more competitive product that could potentially enter the wild card picture if everything goes according to plan.
