Panthers: 2018 Away opponents preview

An in-depth look at the non-divisional road game opponents of the Carolina Panthers for the 2018 season…

During the Carolina Panthers impressive 11-5 regular season they won five road games in route to a wild card berth in the playoffs. Historically, throughout the NFL home teams have held an advantage against their opponent as every team yearns to have an advantage over their visitors.

Next year, Carolina will travel to mostly familiar stadiums, avoiding any trips west of the Mississippi River for the first time since the 2014 season. While most trips will be familiar for the core group of Panthers inside the locker room next year, only a few veterans were with the team when they last visited one opponent.

Ryan Kalil, Jonathan Stewart, J.J. Jansen and Captain Munnerlyn were the only current players who made the last trip to Cleveland during the 2010 season. One team with close to the fewest number of games with Carolina, they have only met the Houston Texans less on the field.

These teams will be hosting the Panthers in the fall for five of their eight road games in the coming season.
