Pretty sure this game ends up being meaningless as the Falcons beat the saints

Maybe meaningless on determining the division but I think it's an important game for the team. It's different to win the division outright than back into it.

I am sure this tidbit is embedded somewhere is the Huddle, but Olave (WR Saints) has been ruled out (Blood clot) for this weekend.  Increases the chances Atlanta wins.  That increases the chances we step into the playoffs.

I want to hoist something in February.

When have the falcons ever done anything good for us? If we lose, the Saints definitely beat the falcons

Seems to me that the Bucs have less fight in them now than they had in week 16. The real test is going to be if the Panthers can sustain focus and discipline throughout. With the Bucs being at home, maybe that gives them a little boost of confidence and energy. 

Wouldn’t it be something if for ONCE the Panthers came out and dominated from the opening snap and just took this shook Bucs team to task? 

If the Panthers see-saw form follows, we are in line for the W. Hard to say we have momentum but we do have a pretty clear pattern of following a loss with a win. 

I’m going to say 24-16 Panthers!!

@X-Clown You still glazing him or no?

He’s clearly not playing like the first half of the season (or either of the last two for that matter). You can point to the drop off taking place since he busted his non throwing shoulder in the Rams game. I’m glad it’s benefitting us. 

Again, sorry praising another opposing player that’s not CJ Stroud gets you so bothered that you bring stuff from two months ago

I have no idea what CJ Stroud has to do with anything but I'm glad we can agree it is wonderful that Baker stinks.

Does that mean window closes and they can't play in the playoffs? I'm assuming yes and think that's the right thing for Hunt but just want clarification

CHARLOTTE — The Panthers added depth at cornerback and linebacker heading into the regular season finale.

The team activated cornerback David Long Jr. and linebacker Jacoby Windmon from the practice squad by standard elevation before taking off for Tampa on Friday.

Those moves are a reflection of Robert Rochell (concussion) and Claudin Cherelus (calf/ankle) being ruled out on the final injury report on Thursday.

The team did not activate either guard Robert Hunt or wide receiver David Moore from injured reserve, so they've been downgraded to out on this week's injury report. They can still be activated next week if the Panthers advance to the playoffs
