Talk about good fortunes.
Bryce Young and the Panthers backed into the playoffs, stole the NFC South crown and now get the reward of hosting Matthew Stafford and the 12-5 Rams in Charlotte in the Wild Card Round.
Los Angeles arrives as a 10-point favorite after a 37-20 win over Arizona to close the season, while Carolina staggers in at 8-9, despite already beating the Rams 31-28 here in Week 13.

What our Post expert thinks about Rams vs. Panthers
The Rams bring the league’s most productive offense, piling up 518 points with four different players scoring at least six touchdowns.
Carolina’s Week 13 upset required 164 rushing yards, three forced turnovers and near-perfect efficiency from Bryce Young. The Panthers averaged just 18.3 points per game over the season, which makes surviving Stafford, Adams, Nacua and Kyren Williams again a real tightrope.
