In what should be a very fantasy football-friendly game, this NFC South tilt is a rematch of a Week 5 matchup that will feature a ton of scoring and not much more defense than your local flag football beer league: The Falcons travel to Charlotte on Thursday to take on a young, fledgling Panthers team led by first-year coach Matt Rhule.
Game Analysis
Offensively, this game has all of the workings of a shootout. Let’s start with Atlanta, but, chances are, even if you’re reading this as a casual fan, you know the faces and the names: Matt Ryan, wide receivers Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley, tight end Hayden Hurst, and running back Todd Gurley, playing behind a league-average (ranked 16th by Pro Football Focus) offensive line.
