CHARLOTTE – The Panthers' locker room stood silent in the moments after Sunday's game came to a close, with nearly 40 percent of the players inside it experiencing something for the first time.
It's not something they want to experience again anytime soon.
"It's very disappointing," center Ryan Kalil said. "We take a lot of pride in winning at home. Good football teams win at home, and we didn't do a good job today.
"We let it slip from us."
The Panthers led 10-0 early and appeared on their way to a 13th consecutive victory in regular season home games, but then they stopped doing many of the things that led to the streak in the first place.
