The nightmare in Charlotte is finally over. 

Now, the Carolina Panthers' focus shifts to the 2024 NFL season. 

Heading into Sunday, the Panthers had already secured the worst record in the NFC South. Finishing at 2-15 after the final loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Panthers' reality is set in stone. Let's look at the Panthers' 2024 opponents for year two of the Bryce Young era. 

Carolina Panthers home opponents

The Panthers are slotted to play nine home games next season. 

In addition to home games against division rivals in the Atlanta Falcons, New Orleans Saints and Buccaneers, the Panthers will take on the Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants, Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Chargers, Arizona Cardinals and Cinncinati Bengals. 

The Cardinals finished fourth in the NFC West and the Bengals finished fourth in the AFC North. 

Carolina Panthers road opponents

When the Panthers head out on the road eight times next season, it will include three bouts against divisional rivals. The Panthers will also play the Philadelphia Eagles, Washington Commanders, Denver Broncos, Las Vegas Raiders and the Chicago Bears. 

The Bears finished fourth in the NFC North. 

2023 was a difficult season, but the Panthers will have an opportunity to right the ship in eight months.
