Even with the refs help, the Panthers were only able to win 27-23 against the road-weary Cardinals. Coupled with the 49ers loss in New England, West Coast teams are now 0-11 playing games on the East Coast.
As far as the game went, the Cardinals played a great first half and a great first possession in the second half, but it went downhill and downhill fast after that. After going down 17-3, the Panthers scored about two minutes later and then again about 30 seconds after that (thanks to Warner's lone interception). It was in classic Cardinals fashion as they snatched defeat from the jaws of victory and couldn't stop the Panthers on their final possession, culminating by allowing Carolina to convert a 3rd and 11 with a freaking draw play. Next up is the Rams in St. Louis, a road game the Cardinals are actually capable of winning. Whether they do it remains to be seen, but as Lloyd Christmas said "So, you're telling me there's a chance."
