Do you have extreme confidence that the Carolina Panthers will be hoisting the Lombardi Trophy this time next year? Well, before your loved ones admit you into the nearest psychiatric ward, you better get that bet in. - Hot off the presses courtesy of Tipico Sportsbook, the Panthers open the 2022 offseason with the third-longest odds (+6000) to be crowned Super Bowl LVII champions. So, if you really do believe, then you have a chance to make bank. - Carolina’s odds stand only prettier than those of the New York Giants (+8000) as well as the Houston Texans, Detroit Lions, New York Jets and Jacksonville Jaguars—who are all at +10000. Their +6000 also tags them alongside the Chicago Bears and their division rivals in the Atlanta Falcons, and just behind the Minnesota Vikings, Washington Commanders and Pittsburgh Steelers (+5000). - Now, if you want to save your money, we can’t blame you. The Panthers capped off the 2021 campaign with seven straight losses and just two wins over their final 14 games. - Plus, their fairly limited resources for the upcoming spring don’t leave much hope for a quick turnaround. In addition to their middling projected cap space of around $17 million, the team owns just one pick (sixth overall) within the first three rounds of the draft. - But, whatever you decide to do with your money, may the odds be in your favor . . . because they likely won’t be in Carolina’s. - - RelatedPanthers make final moves to complete coaching staffNearly a Panther, Rams QB Matthew Stafford now a Super Bowl champion - - List - - Panthers react to Super Bowl LVI - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Email - - - - - Sign up - - - - - - - - Like this article? - Sign up for the Panthers Wire email newsletter to get our top stories in your inbox every morning - - - - An error has occured - - - Please re-enter your email address. - - - - - - Thanks for signing up! - - - You'll now receive the top Panthers Wire stories each day directly in your inbox.
