What could be the floor and ceiling for the Carolina Panthers in terms of their record in 2021?

There is a quiet sense of optimism growing around the Carolina Panthers and their chances for potential growth in 2021. The talent has obviously received an upgrade during a busy offseason across the organization, but the task now will be to put this all together on the field when it matters most.

Easier said than done in today’s NFL. A multitude of different teams are all in the same boat with aspirations of playoff football come January, so it’s vital the Panthers get off to a strong start and build something from there.

Taking things one game at a time will be key.

It’s easy to forget just how young and inexperienced this roster is in the grand scheme of things, so getting things done in critical moments as well as remaining competitive should stand Carolina in good stead when competitive action begins.

In truth, things could go either way for the Panthers.

And it’s going to be another rollercoaster ride for everyone associated with the franchise.

Dreaming big is the God-given right of every NFL fan. The Panthers have endured their fair share of misery in recent years, so approaching the upcoming campaign with enthusiasm is a welcome change.

With this in mind, we took a look at what the floor, the ceiling, and the reality regarding the Panthers final 2021 record might be.
