Week 14: at Cleveland Browns (12/9)

This will only be the sixth time these two franchises have meet and the Panthers have a firm lead winning four of the first five meetings. However, this Browns team doesn’t look the doormat of the NFL like they have in previous seasons. At this point the Browns will likely have Baker Mayfield under center and with the New Orleans Saints visiting next week it could be a trap game. While the potential for an upset is there, you have to trust the talent the Panthers have and that should secure them a win.

Prediction: Win (9-4)

Week 15: vs. New Orleans Saints (12/17)

The final three games of the season will be tough for the Carolina Panthers and could be a clear indication where they stand in the NFC. The final three games are against all NFC South opponents with two matchups against the New Orleans Saints. The first one will be on Monday Night Football as the Saints visit Bank of America Stadium. The Carolina Panthers have won two of the last three against the Saints at home and this should be a win for them.

Prediction: Win (10-4)
