Teams that the Panthers have lost to are a combined 11-1

[Doc Holiday]

So for some good news, the teams we lost to so far are a combined 11-1 among them are the only two 4-0 teams in the NFL right now in the Vikings and Broncos.   And the leagues best offense in Atlanta.

bad news is we are 1-3, good news is we were probably 3 combined plays(missed kick-Denver, kick return and KB block in the back-Vikings) from beating the two best teams in the league right now.

We aren't a bad team, but we are also a team that does have some issues. Some answers are easier then others but I yhink it's safe to say schedule wise the worst is behind us now. It's time to right the ship guys!

no excuse we should have won every game so far , we been playing like poo and our secoundary is so damn trash 

[KillaCamNewton]

doesnt make me feel any better. we played a guy making his first start and the vikings are basically throwing their JV team out there. and the falcons are bitches

This is a worthwhile point to be made.

How far you take it though I guess depends on if you are a glass half full or a glass half empty kind of person.

Irregardless of the records of the teams we lost to, our defense has been absolutely gashed 4 weeks in a row, and we haven't played against an elite QB yet.

Add in the OL woes, and a sidelined Jonathan Stewart on top of a concussed Cam Newton, and there is certainly plenty to be concerned about.

i'd feel a bit better about this stat if the panthers had been competitive in the last 6 or so quarters.  we are getting done to us what we did to others last year.  that blows.  

[PhillyB]

this team really needs to collectively take a poo in tampa bay's mouth for four quarters and get their confidence back

Tough year but its no excuse. We are not taking care of business at the moment.

Gashed? Hardley, we were a top 5 defense in total yards till last week, and if not for special teams and offense spotting the other team points we would have been top 10 in points as well.  Atlanta is our only bad game on defense, offense and ST's have been the biggest issue till Atlanta.  

Not saying we don't have issues, just keeping it real.

We'll stomp the Vikings if we see them in the playoffs

The Vikings in their house in January, no thank you. Better hope they start tripping up a lot.

Falcons got road games against Denver and Seahawks the next two weeks. Our best chance to help things get even for us before the bye.

The mindset of hanging our hat on things like statistical rankings in the face of tough losses has netted us exactly zero back to back winning seasons as a franchise.

Gotta change the rationale at some point.

At this juncture, our franchise should be where they can beat teams with winning records. To be looking more like "same old Panthers" is disappointing to say the least.

C'mon Doc, no cherry picking.  We have all been far too guilty of that in season's past.  We're not sure yet if Atlanta is an anomaly or the new expectation...

I agree that it's not the worst 1-3 ever, but even an optimist had to see how poorly we played in gigantic stretches this season.  Until that gets fixed, there's no way we can put a positive spin on things.

I don't mind us losing as long as the guys are playing hard.  Right now, I'm not seeing that effort across the board.  It just seems like portions of the team are content to collect pay checks.  Or that magically they will be in the Super Bowl again.  This is fairly alarming as a fan.
