Prediction:

24-23 [Failcons]

What you want to see:

• Bryce Young pass for over 250 at 65% clip and no TOs

What you dont want to see:

• Injuries
• Poor run defense
• Bad oline play

I just want to win an overtime game against them for once. Now would be a good time. 

Imagine Reich winning his first game as a panthers coach in overtime, against the falcons, in Atlanta. 

It would be a great contrast to Reich, losing his first game as Panthers QB, in overtime, against the falcons, in Atlanta.

We win on a FG game winning drive led by Bryce Young.

I want to finish the game feeling better about the team. Win or lose.

20-13 Panthers.

Bryce is sacked 3 times, passes for 300+ yards

Ridder is sacked 4 times. ATL runs the ball well between the 20's, but has trouble in the red zone.

I think we'll have a tough time stopping their run attack so Bryce will need to get it done through the air in the 2nd half.  

I believe he can. 

Panthers 27

Falcons 24

Panthers 20-14. Defense frustrates Ridder.

[Castavar]

Can't make a prediction until we know whether Burns is playing or not.

[CRA]

Atlanta in a ugly relatively low scoring one.  I'd give it to whoever was home.  That happens to be Atl.

Does the swami see the Falcons building a 21-0 lead with about 5:00 to go in the third quarter before things unravel for them?

The devil in me likes it!

Fail-Cons - 32

Panthers - 16

Our defense is going to be putrid. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think I am. We don't have the depth to run for 60 minutes and the Falcons offense should be pretty good. Ironically, all they are missing is a QB.

Our defense? Will frustrate someone? Other than Panthers fans? 

People are going to be shocked out how unprepared we really are.

24-20 Failcons- hoping for the best but expecting to loose. Will be there in person to start the Bryce Dynasty. Would love to be wrong and start his legacy right. Bijan rushes for North of 120 yards.

[WestPanthers]

Lower down your expectation and will easy your Sunday afternoon, folks. 

With the Rookie QB, new coaching staff on both side, BB in questions and the slow start history by Frank Reich, unfortunately I believe home team Falcons will take the game 1.

Falcons - 27

Panthers -13
