(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.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Jeremy Fowler draft intel on the Panthers: “Carolina was high on Proctor. If he somehow slipped to 19, he was a viable option.” “Caleb Lomu was on the Panthers short list too.” “Panthers weren’t totally comfortable with Stowers there at 49.”   https://x.com/panthersontap/status/2049827264972353727?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.

      It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
