Former Carolina Panthers running back Jonathan Stewart sent out a tweet over the weekend expressing his belief in the 2022 team. Stewart tweeted, "just had an overwhelming feeling that the panthers are going to shock the world this year!!!! #KeepPounding". Can the Panthers shock the NFL world in 2022? Julian Council explains why he doesn't think it's all that crazy of an idea.

If the Panthers are in fact going to "shock the world" they'll first need to take care of business in the NFC South. Where do the Panthers stack up in the division? Is a 4-2 division record the floor? Has Carolina finally surpassed New Orleans? Have the Panthers closed the gap on Tampa Bay?

Plus, what will define a successful season in 2022 for the Panthers? Is it playoffs or bust? Julian explains why he thinks the playoff drought needs to end to look fondly back on the 2022 season.
