Notebook: Can Panthers spoil Falcons' plans?

(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.

    • Another thread where the Huddle melts down over a Bryce comment.  "Conversations" and "Bryce Young has been signed to a new long-term contract" are still far away from being the gospel.  For a fanbase that has watched two top-3 drafted QBs come here, and us move on, only to see them elevate their play elsewhere, I find it comical. Bryce is flawed but this org is damned if you do and damned if you don't with BY9.  Why would our GM and HC say anything other than supportive about their QB1. Yes, he's extended, but I truly do not think if he goes out and has a repeat of the previous seasons, that he is here beyond 2027. They're giving him every opportunity and surrounding him with a ridiculous amount of assets on both sides of the ball. If he continues to pitch 110 yd/ game and cough up the ball while everyone else is busting their ass, no way Dan keeps him beyond the extension.   
    • Ooof, I was not a Proctor fan. I agree w/ a lot of smarter folks than me that he's more of a guard and think his weight fluctuation is going to be something to navigate. I liked Lomu a lot, but figured there would be more talented guys there at 19. I also wasn't big on bringing in a TE via the draft. If it's not a vet (Njoku) or a trade for Mayer or Kmet, I'd just as soon see what the youngsters have. No need cluttering the room with more of the same.
    • Sam Darnold & Bryce Young are two very different Qbs ..just saying the last 25 years approximately 2/3 of ALL  first round Qb's  in the NFL were or are bust.so for everyone who makes it like a Sam Darnold you have two that don't make it or are a bust
