Carolina Panthers 2015 Schedule and Opponents

The 2015 NFL Schedule is going to be released later in the offseason, but the matchups for the Carolina Panthers are already set as their 2014 regular season comes to a close. For the second straight season, the Panthers will be entering the 2015 season as NFC South division champions, having won their division for the second time with Cam Newton on Sunday afternoon.

That doesn’t make things any easier next season though, as the Panthers almost won the NFC South by default this season and doing so has set them up with  a hard schedule next season.

Here’s a look at who the NFC South Champion Carolina Panthers will be playing next season when the 2015 season kicks off.

Winning the NFC South means that the Panthers will play the first place finishers in the NFC North and NFC West — which this season happen to be the Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks. To make matters harder, the Panthers will be on the road next season against the Seahawks, but this team is a playoff team regardless of their record and all it takes is a ticket to the show to become the centerstage star.
