Stats don't matter in #Panthers' crushing defeat to Bills, 20-9

There are ugly losses, when superb opportunities are inexplicably squandered against a lesser opponent, and there there?s what happened Sunday at Bank of America Stadium. The Carolina Panthers dominated the Buffalo Bills in yardage, first downs and time of possession for almost the entire game, but lost big where it counted most ? the scoreboard. The Panthers? 14-2 loss to Buffalo could have a season-shattering effect on a team that?s been searching to hit its stride and now heads into a tortuous closing schedule that includes only one team with a losing record.
