2024 Outlook
Overview
The Carolina Panthers fans are hoping the 2023 season was the bottom and that their beloved panthers start trending up in 2024. New head coach Dave Canales will look to get Bryce Young playing to his potential the way he brought out the best in both Baker Mayfield and Geno Smith in years past. The offense will have plenty of new faces this season.
Passing
Bryce Young had about as bad of rookie season as weve seen from a Qb drafted #1 overall, throwing just 11 touchdowns to his 11 interceptions. This season he has much better weapons at his disposal so he should be able to have a better sophomore season ahead of him.
Rushing
The backfield was a mess last season when they splashed a healthy contrat to then free agent Miles Sanders. Sanders never got his feet under him last year in Carolina and eventually Chubba Hubbard became the lead back. 2nd round running back Johnathan Brooks is expected to be the future of this backfield as long as he can come back from his ACL injury.
Receiving
The pass catchers will look very different this season than they did in 2023. Adam Thelien and Johnathan Mingo are both still in town, but Carolina brought in both Diontae Johnson and Xavier Legette. Johnson looks to get back to his form as an elite wideout that he was just a few short seasons ago. Meanwhile first round rookie Xavier Legette will have big expectations placed on him year one.
Defense
This defense had a few loan bright spots in Dt Derek Brown, De Brian Burns, Lb Frankie Luvu, and Cb Jaycee Horn. Brian Burns is now a member of the New York Giants. Former South Carolina Gamecock Jadeveon Clowney will need to fill the void left by Burns. This defense looks to still be in the bottom half of the league.
Fantasy Impact
Can Dave Canales make lightening strike a third time as a Qb guru? If Bryce Young can play like he did in his time in alabama which made him the number 1 overall pick then this team could have immense fantasy value. In redraft league Johnathan Brooks probably doesnt add much value given he will start the year on the IR. The wideouts could become nice late round adds if Bryce takes a step forward.
