Something that should cause Falcons sleepless nights..m

NFL schedule makers possibly Carolina fans?  If that's not the case, they must hate the Falcons then.

I know many of us wish we didn't have to wait so long to match up with the Atlanta Falcons this season. While it would be nice to have a chance to gain the upper hand in the division race before the last quarter of the season. In reality, the schedule couldn't be set up any better for us as Panther fans. 

This is something we should bring up to Atlanta fans every chance we get between now and Dec.

Since entering the league in 2011 Cam freaking Newton is 14-2 with 27 TDs 9 ints and 94 passer rating in the month of DECEMBER!!!!!!!!

Feel free to fap while letting that sink in.

those two late season games vs. ATL could very well decide the division.

I fully support the NFL schedule makers in their decision to fill the tail end of the season with divisional matchups.

Keeps the fans interested when the end of the season can decide the division winners (if it comes to those matchups being a deciding factor)

Also some of our walking wounded will be back ......C.J for one. With Allen getting healthy and Delaire getting some seasoning, Ryan should be getting ass planted like the good old days.

Hopefully Allen and Delaire can claim Atlanta's field from Hardy with a big performance.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
