News and notes to kickoff your Carolina Panthers Week 11 game day.

The Carolina Panthers (5-4) remain in playoff contention despite a loss last week but face an Atlanta Falcons (2-7) team coming off their biggest win of the season. Last time out, Carolina fell to NFC North leading Green Bay, while Atlanta dismantled the South division leading Saints with consistent pressure and a relentless defense.

Records typically don’t amount to much when these two teams meet and the same is expected on Sunday. Given their current place in the standings, Carolina cannot afford to overlook any opponent as the Falcons attempt to claw back into contention over this second half of the season.

While Atlanta may already be eliminated from post-season play, they would love nothing more than to derail each of their rivals seasons. Opposite, Carolina needs to notch another home victory with seven games remaining, in order to set up more meaningful games down the stretch.
