Which members of the Carolina Panthers turned in disappointing performances during their Week 6 loss at the Chicago Bears?

Sunday’s defeat to the Chicago Bears at Bank of America Stadium proved to be an anti-climax for the Carolina Panthers. They didn’t start the game particularly well and paid the price for errors down the stretch to move them back to a 3-3 record ahead of some stiff challenges in the coming weeks.

Expectations were higher for this game than at any stage of the season so far. The Carolina Panthers failed to meet their objectives due to a flat performance. But it is worth remembering that there was going to be plenty of rough to go along with the smooth during this period of transition.

Matt Rhule wasn’t exactly complimentary regarding just how out of joint his team was in Week 6. Things will need to improve quickly ahead of their NFC South divisional matchup at the New Orleans Saints next weekend, which sees them open as 7.5-point underdogs against a team that harbor some serious ambitions of making a deep postseason run.

This season was all about keeping perspective. Carolina’s three-game winning run was so unexpected that it was bound to increase the level of expectancy within a fanbase that has gone through their fair share of turmoil in recent years. But considering what was expected from them before the campaign, things are on track.

Let’s take a look at four Panthers players who turned in disappointing performances during their Week 6 loss.
