The Carolina Panthers are an American professional gridiron football team in Charlotte, North Carolina. They are members of the National Football League (NFL) thereby partaking in National Football Conference (NFC). The club got its franchise in 1995. During the team’s existence, they have chalked some successes such as winning the conference championship in 2003 and 2015.
The performance of the Panthers in 2021 was not poor but they surely did face some obstacles. The first three matches of the team were great as they emerged victoriously. All too soon their joy was cut short as they lost their following four matches. In week 16, they suffered a loss to Tampa Bay Buccaneers which caused the Panthers to exit the playoff contention.
