Never happy about a loss.

Are you one of the people that assumed we were going to lose to the Cardinals by 30 as well?

Any given Sunday. A lot of people need to keep that in mind.

Why f*cking Greenbay, man?!

Go to hell NFL schedule makers.

[charlottenian]

It would be great if we got Seattle as the bounce back game.... Nope we get the defending champs with a guy who is making Montana look like a high school qb

You do realize the excitement isn't really for this year, but for the next 10-12 years don't you? Haters goin hate, but Cam is swagtastic!

[PanthersPhan18]

Never happy about a loss.

Same here. I am happy about Cam's play today though.

I'm so pissed off right now I don't know what to do.

To GIVE A GAME AWAY that you had multiple opportunities to put away. To give it away, a week before Green Bay comes to Charlotte.

My anger, I can't shake it. It would be one thing if they played like crap and made a run at the end. But you have drive after drive to go up by 10 or more, and dumb penalties by the "Offensive Line", kept backing you up? Infuriating.

Hopefully Cam also learns from the tape. He waited way too long to try to run on some of those sacks.

I understand that Cam looked great today, but he could easily go out the next few weeks and look like he did in the Preseason. Him playing well is a good headline, but it's not better than 1-0 after a game you should have won.

Had they been blown out, I wouldn't give a crap about the loss. But don't give it away.

We're a young team, you're expectations for this team are Super Bowl or bust.

Amirite.

Leave your fan card at the door bro. I was OUT rooting for my boys till the very end.

[Cape Fear Cat]

Wow...you guys sure know how to suck the life out of a day that, despite the loss, was more fun than any gameday we've had since January 2008. I'm looking at this season as a rebuilding year, all the more so because there was no offseason. Heck, we don't even have all our team on the roster yet (you can bet there'll be some moves on D this week). Yeah, it was a loss. Bt it was also a huge indicator that the Panthers are on the road back to contention. For Game #1, I'll take that, even if it didn't include a win.

What I said is the truth. Nothing else matters but the truth.

Did the Panthers not get down between the 30 and 45 yard line multiple times and stall? Did not every stall happen because of O-line penalties or end with a sack?

They left points on the field. Should have been up by at least 13 at one point.

Arizona would have started pressing had that happened. The outcome may have been different. When it stayed at 7 points, they took their time then hit their stride.

We blew it. I'm pissed.
