The Atlanta Falcons will see a new look Panthers team as former MVP Cam Newton is on Injured Reserve and more than likely will never suit up again for the I-85 rival. This game has a lot of interesting matchups to watch as it will be strength on strength.
The Panthers passing defense is among the best in the NFL and the Falcons boast one of the best passing attacks in the league as well. Without tight end, Austin Hooper will be a big test for Atlanta and their playmakers. Can they do enough in his absence to put points on the board in Charlotte?
