  • Based on preseason odds, the Carolina Panthers are +750 to make the postseason in 2024-25.
  • Carolina is a positive regression candidate this year after going 2-6 in one-score games in 2023.
  • Will Dave Canales turn around the offense and lead Carolina to the playoffs?

Based on NFL odds and Panthers playoff odds, the Carolina Panthers are predicted to miss the postseason this year.ย 

Carolina, who finished with the worst record in the NFL last year, is +750 to make the playoffs in 2024. That implies a probability of 11.8%.ย 

New head coach Dave Canalesโ€™ team is comparably -1200 to miss the postseason for an implied probability of 92.3%.

Prediction: Will the Carolina Panthers Make the Playoffs?ย 

I predict the Panthers will miss the postseason in 2024.ย 

Although the roster is improved, Carolina is projected to close an underdog in every game this season.ย 

Granted, theyโ€™re simultaneously a positive regression candidate as Carolina finished 2-6 in one-score games last year.ย 

If you expect drastic improvement from Carolina, I prefer taking Carolina to win the division at +1200.ย

When Was the Last Time the Carolina Panthers Won the Super Bowl?ย 

Despite appearing in two Super Bowls, the Panthers are one of 12 teams to have never won the Super Bowl.ย 

Their most recent appearance came in 2016, a loss to the Denver Broncos. Previously, Carolina fell in the 2003 Super Bowl to the Patriots.ย
