In an NFC South matchup, the Carolina Panthers beat the Atlanta Falcons 25-15 to take their record to three wins.
For this Thursday evening duel, Carolina imposed itself in the meeting by making several defensive plays which set the tone for this match.
A game in the rain that breathed defense, the Panthers’ ground game disappointed the Atlanta defense which was without star cornerback AJ Terrell with a muscle injury. In the last four meetings, the formation of Georgia was undefeated against Carolina.
While the ground attack of the Panthers is running at full speed against a defense that lacks regularity, it is ultimately the aerial game that benefits from the blunders of the Atlanta defense. Lavishka Shenault Jr takes advantage of Walker’s 41-yard pass to score the game’s first touchdown.
