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.

    • No one way to do it, it does appear that with the bigger draft picks of the last 5 years…..majority haven’t steered clear of young QBs on the roster being their hopeful guy. Especially past their rookie seasons but even some the biggest ones have had it early.   As far as Andy Dalton, the two young guys he has “mentored”…..have had very rough NFL starts.  Which really ask the why the heck is Dalton here.   He doesn’t really check any box.  No young potential.  Can’t step in and win.  And his mentor track record with Fields and now Bryce is bad 
    • I had thought the Panthers might let him play out his contract this year and hope he stays healthy. If not draft a left tackle and move Ekwonu to right tackle. 
    • Frankly, if most teams in the NFL lose their starting QB for a significant amount of time, they're screwed. The fantasy is that one has a future Tony Romo or a Nick Foles that can carry a stacked team. The reality is that you might get roughly 3~5 games out of your backup before it all falls apart. Remember all of Peyton Manning's backups? Utterly terrible. Speaking of backup QB's, Raiders may need one. https://www.nfl.com/news/raiders-qb-aidan-o-connell-suffered-fractured-wrist-in-preseason-finale-expected-to-be-out-6-8-weeks
