The Carolina Panthers will be involved in a fun game.

The Carolina Panthers should have a lot of fun this Sunday. Facing an Atlanta Falcons team that is hungry coming off a heartbreaking loss to the Eagles, it should be a game full of offense. With the Falcons possessing several weapons on offense and missing several weapons on defense, that juxtaposition will provide an interesting subplot. This is the type of game that can allow the Carolina Panthers to make a statement early in the season (if they win) while also allowing the Falcons to do the same if they are victorious.

Without further ado, we take a look at three key matchups for the Panthers against the Falcons.
