CHARLOTTE, N. Cheap Air Max 270 Black .C. -- The Carolina Panthers talked throughout the offseason about avoiding a Super Bowl hangover.It might be time to get the aspirin.The Panthers suffered a colossal meltdown on Sunday, blowing a 14-point lead in the fourth quarter and losing 20-17 to the Kansas City Chiefs.It was a game that the defending NFC champion Panthers (3-6) likely would have closed out a year ago. But now they are in danger of joining a long list of teams with lackluster results the year after losing in the Super Bowl.The last time a Super Bowl losing team returned to the championship game was the 1993 Buffalo Bills. Carolina had won two in a row coming into the weekend, but that momentum is gone now.We had the game pretty much won and we obviously made some critical errors there, tight end Greg Olsen said.Kelvin Benjamins fumble at the Carolina 34-yard line with 20 seconds left was the biggest error. The miscue set up Cairo Santoss winning field goal as time expired.You cant even describe it, Benjamin said. Its tough. Its a tough loss.But Olsen said Benjamins fumble isnt what cost the Panthers the game.There were several other mistakes:-The Panthers wasted a 20-play drive in the third quarter when Cam Newton took a pair of sacks , moving Carolina out of field-goal range and prevent the team from possibly making it a three-possession game.-On the next possession, Newton threw a ball up for grabs while being pressured, resulting in an easy interception for Eric Berry, who returned it 42 yards for a touchdown. Newton said he was trying to give my guy an opportunity, but there were three Chiefs defenders in the area.-And then there were the next two drives that resulted in just two first downs and two punts.We have to find ways as an offense to muster more points, Newton said.Said Olsen: You cant be up 17-3 at the half and have the ball for it felt like the whole quarter and have the ball at the 20 and not even attempt a field goal. Thats why we lost the game -- things like that.Carolina outplayed Kansas City for the better part of three quarters.The Panthers outgained the Chiefs 342 to 256. They held the ball for 11 minutes longer. Their defense didnt allow a touchdown and limited Alex Smith to 178 yards passing.But it didnt matter.Its a matter of protecting the ball late in the game, Panthers coach Ron Rivera said of the teams two fourth-quarter turnovers. You cant do that. If you do that you dont give yourselves a chance to win.In the locker room after the game, the Panthers tried to take solace in the fact that division foes Atlanta and New Orleans both lost on Sunday. But the Panthers are still three games behind the Falcons and two behind the Saints and Buccaneers with seven games left.We have put our backs completely and utterly up against the wall now, Rivera said. There is no room for error.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL Air Max 2019 Release .C. -- Charlotte Bobcats coach Steve Clifford said after all of these years in the NBA hes still amazed at some of the things LeBron James does.

Both will be unrestricted free agents this summer. http://www.airmax720wholesale.com/air-max-720-womens.html . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season.The Winnipeg Goldeyes just keep on winning. Wednesday night in Amarillo, Tex., the Goldeyes got two great starts from Matt Rusch and Alex Capaul and swept a doubleheader from the Amarillo Sox, 2-1 in the opener and 5-0 in the nightcap. With the twin-bill sweep, the Goldeyes are now 6-0 on the season and counting last years 6-0 sweep in the American Association playoffs have won a dozen straight ball games. In Game 2 on Wednesday night, the Goldeyes recorded their second shutout of the season as Capaul worked five complete innings, allowing only four hits. He was picked up by Brendan Lafferty in the sixth and Wes Alsup in the seventh, both relievers pitched hitless and scoreless innings. The Goldeyes scored two in the first and one each in the fourth, fifth and seventh. Red-hot Ryan Scoma drove in the winning run with a two-run double in the first. Leonard Davis went two-for-four with two runs scored and an RBI that came on a leadoff solo home run in the fifth. Josh Mazzola went two-for-four with a run scored. Officially, Scoma was one-for-one with a run scored and two driven in. Scoma is now hitting .600. “The guys got the hits in timely situations to win the first one and they kept it going in Game 2,” Goldeyes pitching coach Jamie Vermilyea told Paul Edmonds on the TSN 1290 post-game show. “We closed them out in the first game and then we came out hot and kept our foot on the gas in Game 2.” Vermilyea was impressed with the teams performance, but he was particularly pleased with the efforts of Scoma and his pitchers. “Ryan Scoma is a great, two-out, two-strike hitter,” Vermilyea said. “He waits to get his pitch and he hits it. That simple. “Before the game I was thinking, &lsquuo;It would be great if we could get three or four innings from Alex (Capaul), but he kept his pitch-count down and threw strikes. Air Max 720 Sale. Then how about Wes Alsup in the ninth? Wow! He was throwing it up there at 95-97 miles per hour. He has rookie status. Were glad to have him.” Capaul (1-0) got the win while Amarillos Joe Newby (1-1) suffered the loss. There was no save. Meanwhile, in the scheduled seven-inning Game 1, the Goldeyes got a tremendous start from Matt Rusch and scored their two runs on an RBI single in the sixth from Nick Liles and an RBI single in the eighth from Fehlandt Lentini. Then, they topped it off with another scoreless final inning from closer Patrick Keating. Amarillo scored its only run in the first as K.C. Serna tripled and then scored an unearned run on an error by Goldeyes catcher Luis Alen. Sox starter Jason Johnson held the Goldeyes scoreless through five innings, but in the sixth Nate Samson singled, went to second on a sacrifice by Amos Ramon and scored on a single by Liles. Then, in the eighth, Samson walked, went to second on a sacrifice by Ramon and scored on a single by Lentini. Meanwhile, Rusch pitched seven complete innings allowing one unearned run on just three hits and picked up his second win of the season. Keating came on and picked up his second save of the year. He gave up two hits, but eventually struck out the side. Liles went three-for-four and drove in a run, while Lentini went two-for-four with an RBI. The Goldeyes immediately jumped on the bus and started heading north. Theyll open a four-game series in Lincoln against the Saltdogs on Thursday night.
