Why the Panthers will win the Super Bowl: Cam Newton stops being inconsistent and plays at an MVP level. The running game continues rack up yardage and Devin Funchess/Greg Olsen carry rack up the receiving yardage. The Panthers defense doesn't give up the big play often and they are fundamentally sound.

Why they won't win the Super Bowl: Cam Newton continues to be inaccurate and the running game all of a sudden stops working. The defense gets caught napping and they are on the field more often than they are supposed to be.
