Around SBN: Cal RB Jahvid Best Seriously Injured, Carted Off Field

Atlanta Falcons vs. Carolina Panthers Open Thread

610x_medium

via cache.daylife.com

Welcome to the latest chapter in a recent yet burgeoning rivalry, pitting our beloved Atlanta Falcons against the hated disliked somewhat less-than-loved Carolina Panthers. This is a big game in the division, with the Falcons propping up their playoff hopes with a win and the Panthers setting themselves up for the division crown if they pull it off.

Let's cheer on the Georgia Dome's finest after the jump!

Star-divide

Who? Atlanta Falcons vs. Carolina Panthers, 4:15 p.m. ET

Where? Georgia Dome, Atlanta, Georgia

Weather? Awesome with a chance of even better.

Fun Fact? The Falcons and Panthers have traded some big victories over the years. As tlozwarlock noted, the Falcons crushed the Panthers 30-0 and 41-0 in 2002. On the other side other coin, the Panthers beat the Falcons 44-11 in 2006 and 24-9 earlier this year.

Injuries? There's an incredibly long list of questionables here, so I'll hit the lowlights. OT Sam Baker is out, WR Laurent Robinson is out, Jason Elam is questionable (but very likely to play), DT Grady Jackson, RB Jerious Norwood, WR Roddy White and TE Ben Hartsock are all questionable. Thanks for being the bearer of bad news, Official Site!

The Panthers have four probables. They're looking very healthy against the Falcons, which isn't great news.

Odds? Atlanta over Denver 1.0, O/U 42.5

Foe? You all know and possibly love Jaxon, who capably caps out Carolina coverage over at Cat Scratch Reader. Be sure to check out what he and his readers are saying during the game. 

GO FALCONS! Let's make sure these cats don't land on their feet!

Love alliteration much, Dave?

Our blessed birds are going to have to be on their A game today. Here’s hoping Ryan’s icy cool, White survives the first half, Turner’s on fire, and Jackson, Lofton, Coleman, and Foxworth snatch some balls out of the air. And a big “go get ’em” to John Abraham and the rest of the DL.

Hopefully

We’ll see Roddy out there today.

by Dave the Falconer on Nov 23, 2008 2:36 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

We better.

He’s our best bet for long pass plays, unless they let Norwood out of his cage…but then again he’s questionable too.

HD and Finneran are good for those inside passes, the ones that help us get into 3rd and Short situations. Jenkins over the middle maybe. But White is a deep threat, our key receiver.

Oh Fudge

Why always inactive?

I’m also beginning to think that Laurent Robinson is never going to crack the rotation. He appears too injury prone, which is a shame given his talent.

If he stays injured all the time

the Falcons will send Fudge packing.

Man

Jets 27, Titans 6 with 11 minutes left. Who’d have thunk it? For our sake, it’s nice to see that anything can happen. It scares me that we’re actually favored by a point today (which doesn’t make any sense IMO). Last time we were favored to win… well, you know what happened. Go Falcons!

Times like these

I’m grateful for our coaching staff.

The Cleveland Browns are doing to Jerome Harrison what Petrino did to Jerious Norwood last year. Their most talented and explosive running back is barely playing behind Jamal Lewis, who has managed 50 yards today and just fumbled the ball away to Houston. Well done, idiots.

Wasn't our game supposed to be nationally televised?

Thought I heard that it was, and then I saw this coverage map indicating it’s only in a small area.

more Falcons fans could see this game. Giants are from a much bigger TV market, wouldn’t be surprised if that was a major factor.

The NFL

It’s business. If I wasn’t so jaded I’d probably be more outraged by this, but you could sell me for $5 as a little green elephant. The bottom line is more important than the fans.

In a few years...

I’m hoping it’ll be other fans getting jilted by us. With Ryan leading the charge, our TV “worth” will certainly rise, as it did with He Who Must Not Be Named. The only difference will hopefully be consistency and straight up talent instead of flash-in-the-pan theatrics.

The only reason I can see

for moving the start time, then, was to give the league more options for choosing the late game today. Seventy thousand people having to go home in the cold and dark stinks, though I did kind of like being able to sleep until noon today.

The late kickoff helped me find a nice spot to watch the game in after my latest bowling tourney. FYI, I’m watching the game with the enemy. My tourney partner’s a Panther fan. We may no longer be partners after today.

Quick fantasy question for Dave

How much do you expect Roddy White to play today? Should I sit him in favor of Donald Driver?

If Mike Shanahan were a hotdog, would you eat him? I know I would. Hell, I'd eat him twice.

He'll play

I may regret this, but start White. He’s still the man!

my favorite McCarver quote

“We had our friends at Stats, Inc. check and see whether more multi-run innings came with a lead off homer or a lead off walk. You would think that a lead off walk would lead to more big innings than a lead off home run. Not true. A lead off home run, this year, has lead to more multi-run innings than lead off walks. It’s against conventional thinking.”

When I look at tonight’s eric battalion between the Giants and Redskins, I want to pay close introspection to the running backs. I think the running backs could be the divisive imminent of tonight’s game. You look at the Giants. They have Brandon Jacobs. They have Ahmad Bradshaw. One’s got power. The other one’s got speed and effusiveness. Together, those two make a heckuva pontoon in the backfeel. Bradshaw is so fast! He don’t drink no decapitated coffee in the morning! You can’t stop him, you can only hope to contemplate him!
