- The 2001 Carolina Panthers season was the franchise's 7th season in the National Football League (NFL) and the 3rd and final under head coach George Seifert. They tried to improve upon their 7–9 record in 2000, and make it to the playoffs for the second time in franchise history; however, the season was a wreck. Not only were the Panthers unable to improve over their previous season, but they deteriorated even further, dropping to 1–15. The Panthers defeated the Minnesota Vikings in their opening game of the season, and then became the first team in the Super Bowl era to lose fifteen consecutive games afterwards. The Panthers were the only team to have won their opener and lose the remainder of the season until the 2020 Jacksonville Jaguars became the second team to accomplish this feat. The Panthers consequently beat the record for most consecutive losses during a single NFL season that had been shared by the 1976 Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 1980 New Orleans Saints, 1981 Baltimore Colts and 1990 New England Patriots. This record has since been broken by two winless teams: the 2008 Detroit Lions and 2017 Cleveland Browns. The 2001 Panthers also became the seventh team to finish 1–15 . By the end of the season, the Panthers had become so incapacitated that only about 16,000 fans showed up to see them play in their finale against the New England Patriots, who eventually went on to win Super Bowl XXXVI. Coincidentally, the Panthers would face the Patriots two seasons later in Super Bowl XXXVIII. Following their terrible season, head coach George Seifert was fired and replaced by New York Giants defensive coordinator John Fox. Despite having the worst record in the league, the Panthers did not earn a number-one overall draft pick in the 2002 NFL Draft due to the debut season of the expansion Houston Texans. In 2015, the Panthers went 15–1, becoming the first team in NFL history to have both a 1–15 season and a 15–1 season. With the NFL going to a 17-game format in the 2021 season, they are also the only team to accomplish this. (en)
- La stagione 2001 dei Carolina Panthers è stata la 7ª della franchigia nella National Football League, l'ultima con George Seifert come capo-allenatore. Si concluse con un disastroso record di 1-15 in cui la squadra, dopo avere vinto la prima partita, perse tutte le seguenti, battendo il record dei Buccaneers del 1976 per maggior numero di sconfitte consecutive in una stagione regolare. Tale poco lusinghiero primato fu battuto dai Detroit Lions nel 2008. Steve Smith fu scelto nel terzo giro del Draft NFL 2001. (it)
