The Panthers and Falcons have released their inactive lists for today’s 1 p.m. kickoff, and both teams will be without important players in this vital division match-up.
The Panthers hope their patchwork offensive line will be good enough to protect quarterback Cam Newton this afternoon. They should be helped a bit by the Falcons being without several key defensive starters.
The Falcons will depend on running back Tevin Coleman to carry the load today with Freeman being out of action. The Panthers will hope to shut down the Falcons’ No.
