Atlanta is a favorable matchup

Player for player, we match up very well against them.

 

They have zero pass rush, and we have a mediocre line, I would not expect much pressure from Osi or Kroy.

 

They have an awful o-line, and their top tackle will not be assigned to Charles Johnson, who is playing like a top five DE the last five weeks.

 

Their best weapon is Julio Jones, he will be shadowed all game by Josh Norman, who has worked wonders against top receivers.

 

Their running game is not special, and Kuechly + Star should pretty much eliminate it all together, think, 2.1 ypc.

 

The Falcons are 1-9 against mobile qbs the last two seasons, they do not have anyone who can spy on a mobile qb, and they cannot create enough separation on the edges to contain them, which means Cam should go nuts.

 

They are straight awful against teams who are run first and have a physical defense, I can't think of the last physical team they have beat.

 

All in all, it would be tough to lose this game, if White goes nuts on the other side it could be tough sledding, but either way, I think we win in style.

 

Panthers - 24

Falcons - 13

If we can capitalize in the red zone we will win.  If we do our usual :

 

1st down:  Run for no gain or lob to KB in which he drops or the ball is overthrown

 

2nd down: KB lob if it wasn't on first down or Stretch run to the outside

 

3rd down:  Olsen drag on PA, Or spread no back looking for KB corner route or  Avant square in.

 

4th down: Gano.

 

We won't win kicking FG.  Atlanta has 2 many weapons to shut out.  However our ball control and running game should keep the ball out of their hands.

This game is going to come down to the offense. They need to be very careful with Hester on special teams. I'm not convinced that they can contain Atlanta's offense all 4 quarters. Cam is going to have to get touchdowns. Field goals won't cut it this time around. Look what happened the last game we played them. 24-20 Panthers. As usual it's going to come down to stopping them from scoring a touchdown on the last drive.

While most points you made are mostly true, both of their lines have played better of late, like ours have.

I think the Panthers are a better team, and should win by about 10, but our special teams scare me, as well as Byron.

    • It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ    
    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
