Please stop saying we are a bad road team

Losing to Minny and Tampa at home is nothing to cough at. Minny has been said to be one of the toughest places to play in the league and Tampa is almost as good as us at home. With that said I have nothing to say about the Atlanta lost, I think we should have beaten them.

We came out flat and they were able to take advantage (credit to them). We did work our way back to down 24-21 in the 4th. Then a Godfey (or Marshall) slip let them get 'goal to go' where they took 4 downs to score. The punt return and onside kick made the score more lop-sided. In the end, they won and deserved the win.

We are not a bad road team. 3-3 in this league is not bad. Its not great, but its not bad. We are a great home team.

And fwiw, of all our road losses, Minnesota was the one we should have won. Half time lead, and We shut down Peterson. Lost to Gus Ferrotte.

Atlanta is a good team and we had no reason to expect we would beat them in their place.

We could have beaten Minnesota. The fumble did us in, and like in Tampa we were overall "out of it" that day. Moreover, in Tampa Murphy's Law played an integral part in the loss. Atlanta pretty much beat us soundly. The Falcons were motivated, and we weren't.

That game actually woke us up out of a funk, and now we are playing at an optimal level which should bode well for this weekend.

I didnt see where we were called a "bad road team", maybe I missed the posts.

3 road losses, all to playoff teams with a combined 17-2 home record...inexcusable.

Road wins are tough to come by. In the NFL if you can go .500 on the road your doing pretty damn good, and your gona make the playoffs 90% of the time.

biggest complaint about us is that we have lost a couple games on the road.

considering that it has only been three...our only three losses....and that those losses were before we got things clicking, i can live with that.

panthers always have something to prove.

this week panthers have to prove 3 things:

1) they can win an away game against a good team

2) they can win in the snow

3) they deserve the #1 seed and are the best team in the NFC

panthers play best when they have something to prove.

there it is.

      No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.

      It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
