Atlanta 21-20.

If we lose the division to them, but make the playoffs, NO and ATL will play each other in the first round while we head West to LA. I’ll take our chances there

If Atlanta lose this game and we win against Tampa, we'll be at 5 and travel to NO if they stay at 4. 4 vs 5 and 3 vs 6. If Saints keep winning and Rams lose out, then yeah at 5 we'll play Rams at 4

Atlanta might not want to lose, they have quite a few teams on their heels

I would much rather play the Rams than the Saints.  I do not know how good we actually are.  I do not know how good the Rams actually are.  I do not know how good the Saints actually are.  I am completely convinced however that the Saints are a terrible match-up for us.

I don't want to play them in the dome again cause I expect flat out cheating from the refs, but man I honestly can't imagine losing to them 3 times in one season.

Honestly dont know enough about either team.  If the falcons that showed up Monday night show up Sunday, they will lose and lose bad.  I hope Atlanta wins, but probably wont

Saints didn’t look very good at home against the Jets either...

Yeah the Saints are a nightmare matchup because:

A.) Our d-line, especially KK, can't do poo against their upgraded o-line pass rushing wise. That means Brees has all the time he needs.

B.) We're just too slow in the secondary and they'll spread us out and get the matchups they want which leads to tons of YAC.

C.) We don't have an explosive offense and we're not good trying to play catch up.

D.) We can't bully the Saints defense and sit out there all day eating up the clock. We'll lose the time of possession battle.

The Saints are the last team in the NFL I'd want this Panthers team to face. We can't rough them up, and we can't out finesse them. They're a SB level team.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
