Panthers haunted by another missed opportunity at the goal line - Panthers.com

“I didn’t see anything open right away and tried to scramble and make a play and they got me,” Allen said. “I’ll go back and look at it and see where he was and see what they did, but if he was open, I’ve got to find him.”

Even before Wright ran to the flat and turned his head, he said he fully expected to see the ball sailing towards him because of the way the play had been designed.

“I definitely thought I was going to get that ball, but I’ll be the first one to tell you, the quarterback has the hardest job on the field,” Wright said. “It’s hard to see everybody. It’s not his fault he didn’t see me.”

That pressure led to Allen’s scrambling and, ultimately, a 23-yard sack and the end of the game.

Still, just as in Green Bay, a touchdown wouldn’t have guaranteed victory. Trailing 29-21, the Panthers offense would have had to line right back up and do it all over again just to even the score with a two-point conversion – of which Carolina is only 1-of-3 this season. Even then, the game would still have to be won in overtime.

But without the ability to execute in these critical situations, whether they’re for the win or the tie, the Panthers have come up empty-handed time and time again.

“It’s haunted us all year. We’ve just got to be better,” Wright said. “Any time that you have a chance to win a game and you don’t pull it off, that’s always the most heartfelt loss.

“If we got out there and just got our ass kicked, not to say you can deal with it, but it’s like, ‘OK, we got our ass kicked, let’s regroup, let’s bounce back. It’s them close ones that are tough.”
