CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Carolina Panthers entered the season with a seemingly solid offensive line, a rookie quarterback who had won a Heisman, a talented defensive unit and a coach with Super Bowl experience.
Hope was high for a team that was still in the playoff hunt late in the previous season.
This sounds like the 2023 Panthers, who enter Sunday's home game against the Atlanta Falcons (1 p.m. ET, Fox) with an NFL-worst 1-12 record.
But the same can be said of the 2001 Panthers, who went through a similar experience during a 1-15 season under coach George Seifert, when they became the laughingstock of the NFL.
