The Carolina Panthers are entering the 2024 NFL season in one of the most challenging places to be for any franchise. They are currently in the middle of a full rebuilding phase, which resulted in the worst record in the entire NFL last season. They are hoping to take the next step forward this year with a new head coach and quarterback Bryce Young entering his second season.
The positive side of the Panther's outlook this year is that they play in one of the weakest divisions and currently have one of the easiest projected schedules in the league. Taking all of this into consideration, here's how their 2024 season could play out.

Carolina Panthers predicted regular season record
Sportskeeda's NFL Playoff Predictor projects that the Carolina Panthers will finish the 2024 season with an improved 5-12 record. This would be three more wins than they had last year, so the tool is expecting them to take a step forward in their rebuilding process.
On the other hand, the simulation has the Panthers finishing in last place in the relatively weak NFC South division again. While winning five games would surely be progress, they still appear to have a long way to go before becoming legitimate playoff contenders, despite being in a somewhat favorable situation with their schedule for this upcoming season.
