Now all the Panthers have to do is win the rest of their games…

…and have Tampa Bay (8-6) and Green Bay (8-6) lose their next two games, The Vikings (7-7) win their next game, and lose the game after that, The Saints (6-8) win their next game, and lose the game after that, and the Redskins (7-6-1) win one of their next two games…

…and tie the other one…

That would all result in four teams – the Panthers, Packers, Buccaneers and Vikings – being tied at 8-8. Current NFL tie-breaking procedures, which involve eliminating all but the top team in the division first, would then give the playoff edge to the Panthers.

Continued victories in the post-season would then lead the Panthers to Superbowl 51.

Going from an almost undefeated season last year to a losing season this year, a Superbowl win for the Panthers would certainly go down as one of the most historic comeback stories in NFL history!

Superbowl 51, here we come!
