What a season it’s been for the Carolina Panthers, who initially appeared to be headed toward another disappointing finish before asserting themselves as surprise contenders in the NFC South.
The Panthers haven’t been easy to figure out, as they have suffered some strange losses between wins over the Green Bay Packers and Los Angeles Rams, but they entered December with a winning record and a legitimate chance at a division title.
Carolina has done this all without a break in the schedule — until now.
Here’s all you need to know about the Panthers’ upcoming schedule as they try to close a season of progress.
Do the Panthers play today?
The Panthers do not play today, as they are on their bye in Week 14. Week 14 is the latest possible bye week in this NFL season.
