The Carolina Panthers achieved more than anyone expected in their second season under head coach Dave Canales. An NFC South title and playoff return galvanized the entire fan base, but the hard work is just getting started.
Carolina needs to kick on. They need to strengthen problem areas and make sure this is just the start of a prosperous future. And given the salary-cap situation, several contracts warrant closer examination from those in power.
Fans are extremely confident in the front-office power couple of general manager Dan Morgan and cap expert Brandt Tilis.
