Panthers vs Falcons Preview

Both the Panthers and the Falcons finished with disappointing 7-10 records last year and both are looking to overtake the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who are the reigning champions of the NFC South.

The Falcons averaged 21.5 points and 318.6 yards of offense a game last year, while allowing 22.7 points and 362.1 total yards per contest on defense. Atlanta will be led by second-year quarterback Desmond Ridder, who went 2-2 in four starts as a rookie last season. This will be the 24-year-old’s first season as a starter, but he knows the importance of starting off fast, particularly against a divisional opponent.

“Anytime we get a chance to play a division opponent those are obviously big games,” Ridder said. “They mean a lot. So … it’s huge for us to go out there, set the tone, not only for our team as a whole, but when you talk about our division and the way people see us and how we play. When we step out there Sunday, that’s the first time that us as a starters team will be able to go out there and put what we represent on film. I’m excited for that. Excited to go up against a great Carolina team, great defense. It will be exciting.”

On the other side, the Panthers put up 20.4 points and 306.2 yards per contest on the offensive side. Defensively, Carolina allowed 22.0 points and over 350 yards of total offense per game.

Carolina promises to look quite a bit different this year. Frank Reich will kick off his first season as the Panthers head coach, and the team has a new signal-caller in rookie Bryce Young.

“Listen, I don’t want to overstate this; I’ve said this many times. Obviously, we think very highly of him, but this isn’t going to be a cake walk. This is going to be fight and scratch every step of the way to get, he’s got a fight to get better,” Reich said about his rookie QB.

“He’s a really, really, really good player, but he’s got a lot to learn. I have a lot to learn, we have, this is our first year as a staff, a new offense, and we’ve got a lot to learn. So we do that while we’re in business, while we’re rolling along, and that’s what we’re going to do, and we’re excited. He’s our leader on offense, and we have confidence he’s going to grow into the player that we all want him to be.”

The Falcons have won two of the last three matchups in the series, although the Panthers won the most recent meeting between the two squads, 25-15. Atlanta leads the all-time series against Carolina, 35-21.

The broadcast crew slated to call the game are: Play-by-Play: Chris Myers, Color Analysis: Robert Smith, Sideline: Jen Hale.
