(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.

      Would you take a chance on Cam Ward?

      I think where they would be picked if redrafted before both classes have played enough football to really tell.  Baker literally looked like a washout with us after Cleveland gave up on him, then turned world beater with the Rams, got a prove it deal with the Bucs and has looked awesome ever since. Asking where Ward would’ve went had he went in ‘24 is just stupid.  I’m no GM, but I wouldn’t have taken Williams #1 either.  I would’ve taken Joe Milton way higher than he went.  I think Shadeur should’ve been a first round pick this year.  Point being, opinions are like buttholes, everybody has one.  It’s my opinion that Ward has that “something special.”  I get that feeling that he’ll be an even better pro than he was a collegiate QB because of whatever that quality is.  I think he’s gonna surprise a lot of people, especially being such an under appreciated first overall pick.

      Where do we get our T-shirts and hats? Pretty sure this is the first championship ever in professional basketball or football in Charlotte!

      Nice turnaround for Kon.  I’m still a little worried about his ability to create for himself and others, but it was SL.  Come regular season, he will playing a much different role and shots will be there for him.  He showed some reason for hope - and not just him, but the whole squad.  I suppose for the first time ever, we have drafted and acquired enough young talent that we actually not only competed for once, but won the whole thing in summer league.     Kon, Simpson, and Sims made all the difference.  Almost every year prior I felt we always struggled because we usually didn’t have a floor general/real PG to get us into offense.  This was such a breath of fresh air.  And look at us!  We finally are champions!😂
