(By Darin Gantt, [email protected]) CHARLOTTE -- All the Carolina Panthers can do at this point is spoil things for the Atlanta Falcons, and it sounds like something that's been discussed around their meeting rooms.p/Both coach John Fox and quarterback Jimmy Clausen referred Wednesday to Minnesota's 24-14 win over playoff-bound Philadelphia Tuesday night, a clear sign they're using it as some shred of motivation for this week's finale at the Georgia Dome.

Maybe/ Here is why:

Clausen and Fox have nothing to lose.

Panthers had 10 days to prepare. Atlanta has 6.

Falcons had an emotional game vs. a division rival. Panthers a trap before playoffs.

Falcons will try to avoid injuries

Falcons have wrapped up playoff berth; Panthers playing for their professional lives and coach.

Panthers have nothing to lose.

Roddy White will be a challenge for our DB's again and I'd expect to get a heavy does of Turner. The real thing is to see how well our OL does against Abraham this time, they will need to limit turnovers to give any hope.

Looks like we are going to need a perfect completion percentage by Edwards again to have a chance.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tbe · Posted

      Sure, that is possible. That’s what, an extra 55 yards a game on average and 7 more TDs? What if he’s just 15th?  I imagine they would extend him in that situation due to the belief that he’ll keep trending up. maybe a 3 year contract to prove he can be top 10? Sounds like a Tepper plan.
