Schedule Under the NFL’s new scheduling formula put in place for this season, the Panthers would play two games each season against their
NFC South division rivals. A schedule rotation would see them play the
NFC North in full in 2002 and every three seasons subsequently, and the
AFC North in 2002 and every four seasons subsequently. As the Panthers had the worst record in the NFL in 2001, they would also play
the Arizona Cardinals, who had the worst 2001 record amongst teams in the reconstituted
NFC West, and
the Dallas Cowboys, who had the worst 2001 record amongst teams in the
NFC East.
