The Carolina Panthers lost a close game against the New Orleans Saints, who are unfortunately one of the best teams in the NFL. That means we should all turn from chapter ten “Embarrassing losses at home” in our season guide books back to chapter nine “Close losses on the road against good teams.” You may recall we read from this chapter just a few weeks ago after the team lost a one possession game in the final minutes to the Green Bay Packers.
In this chapter, we’ll revisit the idea that decent quarterback play—herein provided by Kyle Allen—is insufficient to overcome an inconsistent defense and specific, repeated mistakes—this weeks guest star was Joey Slye.
