The Carolina Panthers and Denver Broncos will meet in Super Bowl 50 on February 7 at Levi Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif. Leading up to the biggest game of the year, we will be dissecting the contest from as many different angles as possible. Let’s break down the 10 worst starters set to appear in Super Bowl 50.

10. OT Ryan Harris

Harris has been decent this season, but he's occasionally struggled protecting his quarterback. If he allows the Panthers' defensive ends to get pressure on Manning on February 7, the Broncos will head home empty-handed.

9. WR Corey Brown

Having Corey Brown on this list isn't an indictment of his play, but a compliment to the Panthers' roster. Just last week he took a 86-yard touchdown to the house and has performed admirably down the stretch. He only makes this list because of the talent of the other Panthers starters.

8. NT Sylvester Williams

Williams has been the Broncos' starter at nose tackle, but he's yet to record a stat in the 2016 playoffs. With the Panthers' run-heavy offense, Williams will need to show up for Super Bowl 50 or it could mean a long flight back home to Denver.

7. DE Jared Allen

Allen was brought in earlier this season when Charles Johnson went down with an injury. Through his first couple games with the Panthers he was solid, but he's really struggled down the stretch and is now battling a broken foot.

6. FS Darian Stewart

Stewart had an interception against the Patriots, but overall he's been nothing more than average. Look for Cam Newton to exploit the middle of the field with Greg Olsen as a result.

5. RT Mike Remmers

The Panthers' offensive line has been amazing in 2015, but Remmers has been the one guy to struggle mightily at times. He's a tremendous run blocker, but he's had issues getting out to speed rushers which could be an issue with a matchup against Von Miller lurking.

4. WR Jordan Norwood

Norwood has taken the role as the Broncos' slot receiver from veteran Andre Caldwell. Despite moving into the starting lineup, he's had little to no impact on the team's success.

3. CB Robert McClain

McClain was a late-season addition to the Panthers' secondary, and he's been picked on by opposing quarterbacks ever since. If he can't step up his play in the Super Bowl, it's quite possible that Peyton Manning will have a big day.

2. RT Michael Schofield

Schofield got destroyed last week by Jamie Collins. Earlier in the season, he was a big reason why Khalil Mack ended up with five sacks against the Broncos as he continuously struggles with speed rushers.

1. CB Cortland Finnegan

The Panthers suffered through many secondary injuries late in the season which led to the signing of the previously retired Finnegan. Since arriving in Charlotte, he's been burned over and over again by other teams' wide receivers. This led to defensive coordinator Sean McDermott changing up his gameplan last week against the Cardinals to bring more pressure.
