Bank of America Stadium hosted the first game of the Panthers in the 2022 NFL season against the Browns. Unfortunately, the home team was defeated by a 26-24 score, but Baker Mayfield is not worried about it.

“Everybody made this out to be the Super Bowl, but despite what everybody is going to make this, there are 16 more games,” said Baker Mayfield through the team’s website. “The Super Bowl is not until February, and this is the beginning of September.

“It’s just a matter of how you handle it, how you learn from Week 1 to Week 2. It can be your biggest jump of the year, and you can learn from those mistakes; the great teams and franchises learn from that, they improve, and they continue to push forward, realizing it’s a long season ahead.”
