Carbs vs protines

Hi I am new to MFP. I have used another weight tracker before. MFP allows more carbs and less protine than the other tracker . I though protein is better for you than carbs when trying to lose weight. I seem to go over on my protein every day on MFP by about 12 to 14 grams. I am under or at the amount of calories that I should have for the day. I guess what I am trying to ask is if 14 grams of protein will hinder my weight loss? There is a 9 gram differance between the two trackers on how much protein I should eat per day.
MFP allows 53 more grams of carbs than the other tracker. Really don't understand why.

    No I don't think the additional protein will hinder you in anyway..what I recommend is finding a diet that works for you...honestly I don't pay as much attention to the macros as I do to the calories...I have enjoyed some success with this method...
