17-0 Falcons and this is getting nasty quickly...

The Falcons just took a 17-0 lead with 13:20 left in the second quarter. What a whipping they have put on Carolina so far!

Atlanta has scored on each of its 3 possessions -- 2 TDs, 1 FG -- with their offensive trio of stars (Matt Ryan, Roddy White and Michael Turner) totally outplaying Carolina's defense.

Then, on offense, Carolina has yet to make a single first down. No first downs and already down by 17??? Unless Carolina does something spectacular quickly, this is looking like it's going to be a very long day for them. Atlanta outgained Carolina 162-0 -- yes, 162-0 -- in the first quarter.

I don't think it is time to jump off the bandwagon quite yet but our defense has looked pretty bad the last three games. Playing 8 yards off the receivers does not seem to be working too much for the Panthers so far.

Delhomme is the Panther's weakest link....and if the play calling continues to restricted to his limited ability, then you can kiss this team's playoff hopes good-by. Delhomme lacks leadership moxie, and wilts under pressure...and that's the truth of the matter.

Hey coach, a mind is a terrible thing to waste, and being stuck on stupid is a real pity.
