ATLANTA: This won't be easy

Going into Atlanta against a team that hates us and we hate them. 

 

Some think Atlanta is going to cruise into the off-season and give a half hearted performance. 

 

Atlanta is not going to roll over for us.  They have a few more weapons then the last time we played them and it is in their house.  We are playing for the #2 and possibly the #1 seed.   I think they are going to be as motivated as ever to put us in a wildcard position.

 

I will say that I don't see a let down from our defense, seems they haven't forgotten 2012 trip to Atlanta. The defense is playing lights out and our offense is a bit banged up.  Smitty is out and Hixon is going to have to step up and make the plays Smitty does.

 

Make no mistake the Dirty Birds are going to be motivated.   We are in the playoffs, lets keep the #2 slot and KICK THEIR ASS.

 

Get er done Carolina.

 

Go Panthers

Going to Atlanta for the last game, after they lose a heart breaker on Monday night, with the division in the line when they can play spoiler? Easy this will not be!

They are going to give us everything they have because their season is over after Sunday. They will want us to remember it...

Yeah, there's no doubt that this isn't going to be a pushover game, but then again, there aren't many, if any, in the NFL. It is a game that I think we can win. Although, some may differ with my opinion, but I think that without Steve Smith, it will be a little harder. Atlanta's defense can scheme against us, totatly different now. They may play man press on our WR's and blitz Cam all day. We will have to be able to adapt during the game, like any other game, and take what the defense gives us. I want the NFC South Title! Bring it home Panthers...

After week 3, we have been slamming the hell out of bad teams all year, just like any good team should do.

Yes Atlanta is a division rival and yes Atlanta should not be taken lightly, just like any team in the NFL.

However, this is not the Panthers we are accustomed to from years past.

This team is not the team we are used to seeing, that drops a big turd when needing the wins or big plays the most.

My mantra all year. atl. is not a very good team. We are a very good team. We win 24-10.

IF, they can protect matty, they may put up a fight. Otherwise, they dink and dunk their way to a loss. The ONLY way we lose this game is if we lay an egg. That ain't gonna happen.

Confident? YES! So fuggin' what. Their defense is still a mess.

      Also hit the over.  Banking on Man City running up the score and Leeds getting a lucky strike.

      Tailed you.  Also Free Play, which is why the risk shows $0.00. Let me look at hoops and get back to you.  Always fade Hubert, haha.

      Hard to say right now, but good thinking.  I look at this as the info we need for free agency.  Looks like we are going to free up about $10m so far; watch to see if any contracts (Moehrig, Horn, Brown, etc) are reworked the first week of March.  Then after free agency, we will have a pretty good idea. Right now, to be fair to your question because I am sure you are aware of its timing: In free agency, I see us adding an OT of some sort and drafting one at some point.  It all depends on how they view Ickey, Nijman, and maybe BC.  That OT could be Nijman.  I do not see the future OT--just a stop gap. I see the Panthers signing a free-agent center.  I think the market is strong.  I see Fortner from the Saints as a prime candidate and his salary is estimated at $6m by Spotrac.  the Saints are $42m over the cap, so I doubt they are able to re-sign many of their own.  He will be 28.  I also expect them to re-sign Corbett (depth) at a vet min ($1.5m) deal. I also see free agency as a strong area to get a free safety who can play and is under age 30.  Hawkins, Cook, and Bryant are all around age 27-28, play at a high level, and should be had for about $15m per. EDGE: Arnold Ebiketie is a good value because he gets pressure at a high percentage.  He had 2 sacks and Atlanta just drafted 2 pass rushers last year.   He has a 70+ PFF rating and will (Spotrac) demand about $9m.  While he is not the answer, he is a great third down option with Princely and he would allow for Jones, Scourton, and Princely to develop.
