This is really Cam Newton’s division to lose.

Carolina tore apart not just the NFC, but their southern division so badly last season that their embarrassing loss in Super Bowl 50 at the hands of the Denver Broncos hurts that much more.

But they’re ready to move on.

They may not be the 15-1 Panthers from a year ago, as losing Josh Norman will have a bigger impact than most might expect it to.

The other teams in their division just don’t seem ready to be on their level just yet, so it only makes sense to let the Panthers run away with this one.

Division Predictions:

Panthers (12-4)
Falcons (8-8)
Bucs (7-9)
Saints (5-11)

Next: NFC West
