The Carolina Panthers host Green Bay in the second of three straight home games…

A year ago the Carolina Panthers had just five wins entering Week 15, but have already surpassed their previous total by four this season. It hasn’t been enough to secure a divisional title or even a playoff berth to this point but the Panthers are preparing for life after the regular season.

In order to do so they must continue winning as a large group of teams are piling up comparable records in addition to their divisional rival Falcons and Saints. Currently leading the division, New Orleans owns any tie breaker over Carolina by virtue of their previous two wins.

Green Bay now stands in Carolina’s way, looking to extend their own eight year stretch of playoff appearances. If successful on Sunday, Aaron Rodgers and the Packers will emerge as serious contenders over the final few weeks of the year.
