In twenty years whats the worst loss to date?

I saw a topic similar to this discussing the best win to date. Figured why not ask what was your worst loss as a Panthers fan (excluding the Super Bowl loss)?

 

Mine hands down was during the 2004 season when we started 1-7, and we put together a fantastic run only to be deflated in week 15 by Vicks hydroplane dive into the end-zone...

No doubt The loss to Arz in the playoffs.

That window got slammed shut right on our necks. We just recently recovered

I want you to smack yourself in the face and think about what you said. Then come back and give the correct answer.

the Arizona game is more recent, it was just terrible all the way around, it got bad then got worse, then got worse than that...turnover after turnover after jake passing attempt...

The Super Bowl sucked, but at least we looked like a team in that game, had a shot and the kick off killed us, but at least we had a team play a good game, not the epic meltdown in the Arizona game...

the loss to Seattle in 2005 sucked too, limped into that game and got blownout after smitty's magical season

In terms of a single game, it's SB 38. But we were back in the NFCCG in 2005 and if not for a slew of injuries who knows what happens?

In terms of an era, it is most definitely the Arizona loss. A loss like that had been brewing all season with Jake having some poor performances, but for that game to play out the way it did, the reset button should have been pushed right then and there.

Instead, Hurney doubled down and tried to hang on to that flawed team for years, resulting in lame duck seasons and cap hell that we still have yet to fully get out from under.

Super Bowl 38 was awful, but 2008 against Arizona ended our most successful era to that point, and in stunning, unexpected fashion.

well, as the win, I'll go with worse loss for me (that I attended live) and that would have to be probably the SF playoff game. I expected to see a better game that night, and man, when it all came down to it, I'm still pissed about that game.

(I remember the AZ playoff game too, but well, the SF one felt worse to me)

Good reasons, but with the amount of times 38 gets shown on NFL Network it beats out 2008 for me. At least I don't have to re-open the wound as often vs Arizona.

    • So how about the Mondays after we lose? Because those Mondays after the Jags, Pats, and Bills games better have been run suicides until your legs fall off...
    • Saints trade WR Shaheed to Seahawks Seahawks get: WR Rashid Shaheed Saints get: 2026 fourth-round pick, 2026 fifth-round pick Seahawks' grade: A- Saints' grade: B+ One of the NFL's hottest passing teams just got better. The Seahawks currently rank third in EPA per dropback (0.25) and first in success rate on dropbacks (53%). And now they are adding Shaheed in a move that makes sense both on the field and in terms of where the Seahawks are as a franchise. Shaheed, 27, is averaging 1.8 yards per route run this season. But I think that sells him short because that number is down a bit from his career average entering this year (2.0) and he's been playing a role that includes running fewer vertical routes (34%) compared to last year (44%). Shaheed also has consistently posted above-average open scores in ESPN's receiver score metrics, including a 63 this season that ranks 28th among wide receivers. As a complement to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, I expect Shaheed will run downfield more often and be a bigger threat in that role than rookie Tory Horton was. When Cooper Kupp returns, he and Shaheed will make for a nice pair of secondary threats behind one of the best receivers in the league in Smith-Njigba. This is the time to strike for the Seahawks. FPI gives Seattle an 84% chance to make the playoffs and a 5% shot at winning the Super Bowl. This addition helps boost their chances without mortgaging their future the way the Colts did in the Sauce Gardner trade. Shaheed is a pending free agent but given the leverage of the moment for the Seahawks and their need I think they ought to be plenty willing to pay the cost. Shaheed is young enough to where if Seattle doesn't retain him he should sign a free agent contract that would yield Seattle a compensatory pick -- if the Seahawks don't nullify that pick with signings of their own. Because the Seahawks currently have $79 million in cap space next year, per OverTheCap, getting that compensatory pick is not guaranteed. The Saints are not rolling in cap space the way the Seahawks are -- and thus would land a compensatory pick for Shaheed -- but they got more draft capital this way than they otherwise would have. Considering New Orleans' 1-8 record, this should have been an easy decision.
