 You got a big game this weekend because you know, we still got a chance to make the playoffs What can we do differently to keep Barry ground and that Carolina difference of getting all over Matt Ryan this time? I expect to see two teams come on slug it out I think the team that loses we can start stop talking about the playoffs We we've been in the hunt for the last three weeks If one of these teams can put it together one might make a chase or at least a run towards the playoffs Because they're still in the hunt believe it or not Arthur Smith has said it. This is massive. Gotta have it. That's the end Cam Newton's back in town and yet nobody seems real happy. You know the story first overall pick of this organization 10 years ago Newton gonna make a quick throw to the perimeter. They're gonna try and free more they did and He will break the midfield line get knocked out about shiving another first down Play with a little bit of tempo here now camera running a no-huddle operation Yep Newton thinks about the run will keep it has five has 10 and has a first down Panthers on their opening drive and carolina threatening in the red zone You got to be careful with newton and his ability to run the football We've already seen it once on a quarterback draw And newton gonna keep it left side 10 five and cam Newton peros into the end zone for the score And the panthers charge to the lead on their opening drive Here is matt ryan 12 times He's had a passer rating of 100 or more against the panthers ryan a play fake on second 11 Wanted to take the pump now will fire deep gauge the catch in stride A diving grab across midfield and then sliding to the panther 42 and a half Is russell gauge ahead of cj hinderson ryan under duress flips it gauge makes a diving catch ryan to the falcons trying to answer gauge sharp and hers to the right matt looks right gonna throw that's caught gauge First down inside the 15 their first intent and carolina's 11 Here's ryan hands to patterson left side he'll score standing Oh my goodness We're now tied at seven here in charlotte Here we go second quarter atlanta needs to To stiffen up here on third and long Here's newton. He's gonna throw quick shot intercepted Michael walker and he's got road in front of him walker will score 15 10 5 A pick six of cam newton and atlanta leads walker drops right into the slant area And right in the throwing lane for cam newton cam never found him 66 yards on the intercepted return by michael walker My goodness here's ryan and the gun on the near hash falcons go right to left in period two Panthers bring everybody they get their hands on ryan gonna flip it to davis Mike's got room 45 40 first down 35 down to the carolina 32 Really good call there by daver going in arthur smith ryan works under center Got a hand to patterson. Oh, cordero bends it around Thompson left in his wake and cordero patterson steps out of bounds inside the 20 at the 17 Youngway coup who is 16 of 18 on the air is longest is 50 We'll try a 32 yard field goal and the kick is up and it is punched right through So newton taking a break over there for matt rule and this was thought we might see a possession or two of uh The second-year quarterback who played for rule of temple snapped the walker here comes atlanta with the pressure He's gonna fail and throw and aj terrell is gonna pick it. How about that second turnover of the half on carolina 17 7 atlanta by 10 at the break stay tuned. Who's taking snap number one for the panthers here after this kick pj walker or camp newt. I would think cam newton would take the snap Quick count newton takes the snap pressure coming throws caught and that is tommy tremble the tight end And he will spin to the atlanta 39 for a first down before luke makes the tackle newton takes the snap He's gonna keep it got away from grady jarrett turns up field first down inside the 20 to the 17 11-yard run quarterback run for cam newton Newton first in 10 off atlanta 17. Here's chuba to the left side 10 five touchdown carolina with chuba hubbard Oh very energy producing drive for carolina and newton Led that drive with a couple of big runs and they punch it in 11 21 to play quarter three here at bank of america stadium Here's ryan from the gun again spins it to pence. Oh, what a tough catch in traffic between two panthers at the 39 For the atlanta first down Ryan from under center play fake to patterson again Move right back to the right. Lee's smith the catch middle of the field He'll have a first down inside the carolina 40 to the 38 yard line 38 yard drive for coup in earlier today from 32 kick is away from youngway coup And it is good All right, so here's cam newton and the panthers And newton got it to hubbard and fumbled in and then jarrett recovers second turnover for cam newton today And the falcons have recovered with grady jarrett third turnover the day for the panthers atlanta gets it in plus territory Yeah, short field opportunity right here Carolina bring it everybody they can get their hands on ryan gonna step up throw caught first down That's kyle pence at the 38 yard line at carolina under a minute to go into third eye formation Here's ryan hands to patterson behind key smith and atlanta just running at the panthers now ryan hands no playmate gonna throw it wide open hayden hers touchdown atlanta on the right side Such a good call got a run set in the game. You've been running the ball down their throat Arthur smith shows hard play fake to mike davis and slips hayden hers down in the right flat nobody around And ryan puts it on him for a touchdown and atlanta makes it a 12 point game There you go. We'll flip into the field final 15 is next from charlotte And don't let him buy time now i expected lana to heat him up have doula checking out of the backfield here goes newton wow Holy cow dante fowler hit cam newton head on Good yes, and there's a straight quarterback sweep to the left side and nobody put a hand on number six Here's the snap newton drops back and fowler socks him And many folks Are headed to the exits in charlotte and carolina surrenders the ball at its own 48 now to the thousands There's ryan play fake pressure coming that gonna look slip into davis caught 40 and a first down inside the 37 to the 36 Well now you get young way coup on the field To to change the dynamic of this game making a 15 point game 48 yard field goal drive for coup Snap spot kicked by coup is away, and it is good So here comes pj. Walker back in the game. He's gonna be you know, he's gonna be willing to sling it down The field that cam has been inaccurate. I guess would be the best way to say it for the most part today So pj. Walker in the game he fumbled the ball And he'll get hit in the backfield. He lost two maybe three on the play crowd boos and quite frankly they got a right to Carolina's getting to get an opportunity to try to stop the run because it's coming. Yeah the first intent at the 44 And quadri allison put it on the ground I talked about it remember the last drive number one priority is ball security You cannot put the ball on the ground Arthur smith is over there just can't do it And he's gonna show the emotion But he wants to go over and walk and knock his put his head up against the wall Just beat his head on the wall just take care of the football Panthers recover and they're 49 yard line. How about that? So here is pj. Walker again out there Trailing by 15 points Straight drop. I'm gonna cut it loose. Anderson again Catches it at the 20 on a sliding ground Atlanta maybe needs to turn up the volume just to touch here defensively Walker throws. This is abdulla on the right side inside the 10 first and go Gotta get points Here's walker throwing right side and anderson caught it pj. Walker throws his first touchdown of the year and lana's now got to get a couple of first downs arch To salt this thing away This cannot find a way to win a game easy Now you got to fight your rear end off to get out of here Kyle pits Four catches today in motion to the right Here's ryan play fake to davis gonna throw this just pits wide open turns the corner first down at lana inside the 45 Down to the carolina 41 yard line boy goes the number one pick Give arthur smith a ton of credit here He goes ahead and puts the ball in his veteran quarterback's hands and he gets his number Number one graphic on the move Nobody home for carolina 23 yards to the carolina 42 in the first down. What a call by arthur smith The ball game is over Another nice road win for arthur smith falcons who had lost to tampa by 13 last sunday We'll go to six and seven the final here in charlotte Is it lana 29 in carolina 21?
