Carolina had a lead in the game and it was tied in the fourth. Carolina had more first downs, more passing yards, more rushing, yards. What gave Atl the W was a rookie quarterback, playing his first NFL game ever in a hostile crowd turning the ball over.

Exactly! Atlanta only managed 221 yards AT HOME against the Carolina defense that we ran up 341 yards against on their home field. Atlanta gave up 281 yards to the Panthers offense while Carolina could only muster 239 against us with a third of that coming on their last possession with the Saints in a time burning "prevent defense".

Our offense has proven it can move the ball. It's just they keep faltering in the redzone.

If they can come away with TD's more often than FG's, we will be tough to beat.
