Weeks 9-13

35. 124. Final. 17. 87

Carolina makes just its fourth appearance at Arrowhead Stadium as the Panthers and Kansas City Chiefs clash for only the seventh time period. When last these clubs met, Andy Reid’s team went into Charlotte in 2016 and handed the Panthers a 20-17 setback. It’s safe to say that this is a daunting task for a rebuilding team.

20. 87. Final. 28. 48

The last time the Panthers hosted the Buccaneers, it was Week 2 on a Thursday night. Carolina’s quarterback was Cam Newton. But who knew then that it would be his last game with the franchise? It also added up to a 20-14 setback. This time around, Carolina will be facing veteran signal-caller Tom Brady and the results will be similar.

23. 50. 24. 87. Final

The Lions make their first appearance in Charlotte since 2014 and look to repeat the success they had against the Panthers 2 years ago when they knocked them off at Detroit. Can Matt Patricia’s defense contain Carolina running back Christian McCaffrey, arguably the most versatile player in the league at his position these days?

60. Final. 24. 87. 30

The Panthers head to the Twin Cities for the first time since 2014 as these teams meet for the third time in five seasons. It’s been a series mostly dominated by Minnesota, who owns an 8-6 lifetime advantage dating back to 1996. And these days, the Vikings have the better football team. But look for Carolina to hang tough.

The Panthers have their bye week in Week 13.
