After first victory, Panthers coach Matt Rhule challenges team to have winless intensity

Less than 24 hours after the Carolina Panthers earned their first victory of the season, coach Matt Rhule had a clear task for the team heading into Week 4.

“I think the key is to try to be the same guy every day, so I challenged them today to have the same intensity about improving that they had last week at 0-2,” Rhule said. “That is the key to being great. It’s come in every week, see what we did well, see we what we did not do well, and improve.”

Carolina (1-2) beat the Saints 22-14 on Sunday largely in part to its defense (two interceptions, a forced fumble and a touchdown), special teams (three made field goals and a blocked field goal) and receiver Laviska Shenault (two catches, 90 yards and a touchdown).
