Oh man, ESPN thinks we are nothing compared to all the other teams in the league, we could go 15-1 and they probably still think we'll lose the divisional playoff games in the same year... We get no respect whatsoever from the critics, but its ok because most of them are washed up and old football players or guys who always wanted to be football players and could not because they sucked....

One person does not equal ESPN.

this may shock you but when you have someone on your most watched show come out and talk he speaks for your company, plus ESPN wants the Falcons to win the division and that's why they got are rooting against us, what could be a better story for them then the Falcons winning the division this season.

My point is that there will be some analyst on ESPN that pick us, and some that will pick the Saints. And fwiw, I understand the pick. We are 3-4 on the road and coming off of a tough loss. The Saints have only lost once at home. Its natural that some will pick them. I think we will win, but its not a sure thing.

I seriously doubt the network really cares who wins, but they probably think the Falcons are a more interesting story with all the problems they have had over the last couple of years.

I actually like Trent Dilfer as an analyst and the man knows his NFL but I can't see the Saints winnning this game.

Their lockers are packed up and ready to go and the only thing they will care about is getting Brees the passing record. I think because of that they won't use Pierre Thomas like they should. Teams that have nothing to play for in the last week of the season rarely show up to play and I am not sure why this game would be any different. They are thinking about that family trip to the Caribean they are taking first thing Monday morning and I don't blame them. As long as the Panthers are ready for an air attack (and I am sure they will be) this game should not be an issue.

in the dome, on a fast track, with a struggling secondary and banged up defensive line, against a QB going for a huge record and a team with absolutely nothing to play for......

yeah, we're going down.

The Saints are more banged up than we are. If we come out like we did against the Giants and get an early lead, the Saints will likely give up since they don't have anything to play for anyway.

      Jadeveon Clowney upset about being released

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Before the draft, Panthers G.M. Dan Morgan was vague when asked about the future of edge rusher Jadeveon Clowney. After the draft, a report emerged that the Panthers engaged in pre-draft conversations about possibly trading Clowney. It was no shock, then, when the Panthers moved on from Clowney, on Thursday. In eleven NFL seasons, Clowney (the first overall pick in 2014) has played for the Texans, Seahawks, Titans, Browns, Ravens, and Panthers. He fully intends to keep going. “I’m definitely gonna play well,” Clowney told Joseph Person of TheAthletic.com. “You can mark my word on that. I don’t care where I end up playing at, I’m gonna play extremely well.” Clowney seemed to disagree with the Panthers’ decision to part ways. “I think I played well for Carolina [last] year, considering the circumstances that . . . unfolded for me,” Clowney said. “I played with a bunch of guys that was hurt this past year. And I ended up playing extremely well for them. So it is what it is. I can play the game. I can play football. There are 31 other teams. I just hope another team gives me that opportunity so I can prove myself again. I feel like I can do that.” “I got a sense then they wanted me out of the building,” Clowney said. “I was just like, ‘Y’all could’ve told me this back when I was coming in here during the offseason.’ I kind of had a sense, though. I’ve been around the game long enough to know, so I was OK.”

      Didn’t they sign an edge from the Vikings who’s a multi year starter?
