For those wanting to see the Atlanta Falcons win a game convincingly, Sunday’s 38-20 road victory over the Carolina Panthers was a pretty good start. While the Panthers offense was tough to slow down early, the Falcons held them to three points in the second half with a few clutch interceptions.

Dalton, on a second-and-8 from the Atlanta 32-yard line, was picked off by cornerback A.J. Terrell in an attempt to find tight end Ian Thomas. The Falcons proceeded to piece together a nine-play, 84-yard scoring drive—capped off by a 2-yard touchdown from Allgeier—to take a 35-20 lead with just under six minutes remaining.

Where the Panthers go from here is above our paygrade, and the job of general manager Dan Morgan and head coach Dave Canales. Make no mistake - they have been dealt a losing hand,
