Not much went right for the Carolina Panthers during an ugly home loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 8. It brought the momentum around head coach Dave Canales' squad crashing back down to earth. It also provided fans with a reality check about how much hard work is ahead before the NFC South club is ready to contend.
The Panthers were without quarterback Bryce Young, which didn't help their cause. Andy Dalton was nothing short of woeful from start to finish, putting Carolina in an early hole they couldn't get out of.
