Christian McCaffrey’s return to the lineup boosted the Carolina Panthers, and Teddy Bridgewater had his best game of the season.
But when the Panthers were down to their final chance to surprise the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday, Carolina head coach Matt Rhule called for a 67-yard field-goal attempt to win it.
Kicker Joey Slye’s try — which would have been the longest in NFL history — had the length but went wide right in the Chiefs’ 33-31 victory.
it was the Panthers’ fourth loss in a row and the Chiefs’ fourth win in a row.
