Carolina Panthers vs. Jacksonville Jaguars

If big cats are your thing, you’d be overly excited about a prospective matchup between the Carolina Panthers and Jacksonville Jaguars.

What’s the difference between a jaguar and a panther, you ask?

Well, panthers are generic terms for large cats. So, technically, the Jaguars are Panthers, if we’re looking at the literal definition.

This pretty much gives Carolina the edge, doesn’t it. But if you’re not convinced, the all-time series between these two big-cat teams is 3-3.
