New Year’s resolutions for each NFL team

As the ball drops and we enter a new year, let’s take a look at the resolutions for each NFL team.

Carolina Panthers

The Carolina Panthers finished the 2018 season with a record of 7-9. It was a year of injuries and growing pains, nothing close to an expected trend. But then 2019 arrived, and so did injuries and more…pains. Head coach Ron Rivera got the midseason pink slip, and the team sunk into NFC South obscurity rather quickly. Other than the brilliance of Christian McCaffrey, it was a year to forget.

2020 Resolution: Hold your proverbial horses there, Panthers. The situation in Carolina can get a lot worse, a lot more quickly, if the team is entirely dissolved. So, don’t do that, gang. Keep Cam Newton. Make him happy by bringing in a coach with a good offensive system and coordinator—which is all the rage, currently. Work with his uncanny talents, complemented by McCaffrey’s uncanny abilities. The idea of rebuilding should take place into the decade, not right after Ryan Seacrest signs off.
