Any given Sunday is a cliche for a reason in the National Football League. Look no further than Thursday night’s blowout by the Las Vegas Raiders versus the Los Angeles Chargers as evidence of what can happen when one team is not ready to play.
The Atlanta Falcons have much to prove this Sunday when they travel to face the 1-12 Carolina Panthers. While a 42-point loss is unlikely, the Falcons could find themselves on the losing end of this game if they aren’t prepared.
Carolina’s game plan will be fairly simple.
