If there's a 24 hour rule on waiting to post about our next game then I apologize, but I've been waiting for this game since week one. All we heard was how good they were, how they were so much better that the Panthers and were going to dethrone us and about how great "Matty Ice" was playing...

I've got some breaking news... the Falcons are who we all thought they were.. and Matty Ice is now Matty Slush.

As far as the Falcons, I'll repeat what I said multiple times in all the threads early in the season. 

Wait til December.  Things change, and they have. 

The Falcons can be dangerous, but they are very in consistent. 

I expect a big effort from them since we're still undefeated.

I would not want to be the Falcons offense coming into Carolina next week after the performance that the Carolina defense put up this week.

Rivera is going to have the defense foaming at the mouth.

I would be really surprised if the Falcons score more than 13 (with their only 7 coming off a late game trash time TD).

I am going to be at the game yelling my butt off. I hate the Falcons most of any team. Bar none. The players don't like Atlanta either. Should be a physical game. We need to win at home and keep the homefield advantage. As long as the cardinals keep winning we can't afford any missteps and we can't let up at all.

I feel like this is the team that I've been waiting for; a team that can beat you in a grinding defensive battle if thats what you want to do or shoot it out with you 41-38.... should be a great NFC Title game if its us and Arizona. One for the ages. And between Delhomme's scalping on that Saturday night so many years back; and last year us whoopign them in Charlotte... it seems destied to be those two teams.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
