Carolina on mind

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Gearing up for the Patriots' preseason game against the Panthers tonight, where the weather calls for temperatures in the mid-to-high 70s around kickoff. There is no rain in the forecast.

The Patriots are expected to play their starters for an extensive amount of time, and the team -- 0-2 through its first two preseason games -- will be looking to avoid only its second losing preseason under coach Bill Belichick.

A look at the preseason history under Belichick:

  • 2000 -- 3-2

  • 2001 -- 3-1

  • 2002 -- 3-1

  • 2003 -- 4-0

  • 2004 -- 1-3

  • 2005 -- 2-2

  • 2006 -- 2-2

    We'll have more later tonight after arriving at Bank of America Stadium.
