Just like the Atlanta Falcons, the Carolina Panthers just need to win and they’re in. Last year the Panthers willed their way to the No. 2 seed in the NFC but this year they’ll be limping into the playoffs despite a win earning them the No. 4 seed and a home playoff game. That’s not something that’s as valuable as it may seem, but at the end of the day the Panthers are just a win away from making it back-to-back trips to the postseason.
