All you had to do was beat a 3-10 team ONCE

I wonder how many people thought we'd have 2-3 wins this year at the beginning of the season and are now bitching because they aren't winning every game?  The team is young.  They are growing.  We still have some holes to fill, but it's a decent team.  They have the number of wins and loses they deserve 

I thought we would be a 6-11 team (probably will end up being 1 win off).

My problem isn't necessarily losing games like this (especially division games on the road). It's more that we look completely unprepared in like 90% of the games we have played this year...

This is the correct take - but its easy/fun to get caught up in the success of this season. We all thought we were at least one year away from competing and if someone told us at the beginning of the season we'd be competing for the division title, very few of us would have believed it.

They had multiple sacks after going up ten; and multiple fourth down attempts.

the panthers did nothing different than they normally do. They just didn’t get any turnovers today. Exchange for exchange that’s the panthers: they can score about 14-17 points, and will give up about that much against equal competition.

Panthers offense isn’t good enough to win a game on its own because of the qb. 

Mostly agree with you. My problem is the 15+ play drives we gave up on D the first 3 Q of the game (which isn't good). Then 4th Q decide to just run cover 3 drop and give up every open 10 yards pass possible on the game tying drive...

Most annoying part of this game is we were up 10 then went prevent offense and defense...

A head or heads should roll because of this negligence and incompetence. It’s inexcusable with what we’ve got on the line.

Nothing else needs to be said. You have two weeks to prepare for the 3-10 Saints after getting bullied the first go around. You don't deserve sh*t if you can't even beat em once. This team is simply not ready for the big lights, and I don't think we ever will be unless we get another Cam. 

Didn't even think about that...2 weeks to get ready for a team you already played and we still couldn't get a 200 yard passing game from bryce atleast? 

Its insane folks dont see a concern in this.

They had a good drive. Panthers started the game with one. Offenses get paid too.

by the end of the game they were exhausted which happens when your offense can’t sustain drives at the end of the game.

This is literally how the panthers won in Atlanta, except they lost their qb and by the end of the game top 2 receivers. We unfortunately did not lose our starting qb, to obviously dire effect.

Sucks we lost, but the saints have been competitive in a fair amount of their losses to teams better than us.

It was over when dipshit went for it on 4th and didn't kick the field goal
