The Carolina Panthers are a professional American football team representing the Carolinas. The Panthers are members of the Southern division of the National Football Conference in the National Football League. The team plays their games at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina, which also serves as the team headquarters. The Panthers are one of the few teams in the NFL to own their stadium, legally registered as Panthers Stadium, LLC; the team itself is legally registered as Panthers Football, LLC and is worth approximately USD 1 billion according to Forbes. The Panthers uniforms consist of black, white, and blue jerseys, and white and silver pants, and have barely changed throughout their existence. The team maintains heated rivalries with all of their fellow NFC South teams, in particular the Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, in addition to out-of-division rivalries with the Arizona Cardinals and Dallas Cowboys. The Carolina Panthers began play in 1995 and had success in their first several years, finishing 7-9 in 1995 and 12-4 in 1996. Despite their early success, the Panthers would not have another winning season until 2003, when the team won the NFC and made it to Super Bowl XXXVIII, losing 32–29 to the New England Patriots. In their short history the Panthers have made the playoffs four times, reaching the NFC Championship Game in three of them. They have won three division titles, one in the NFC West and two in the NFC South. The team's most recent playoff appearance was in 2008, when the Panthers finished 12-4 before losing to the Arizona Cardinals in the divisional round. Since then the team has failed to record a winning season, with their 2012 season ending with a 7-9 record, a one-game improvement over their 6-10 finish in 2011. LESS
