If you have comments that may help other fantasy owners regarding player performance, please elaborate on what you see in this thread.

 
Panthers go up 3-0 on 38 yd field goal.

2 catches for Smith for 30 yards, one was a beautiful catch against the sideline. Atlanta rush defense looks tough but Delhomme will kill the secondary unless they start getting some pressure on him.

 
Turner not getting much room to run, line not opening any holes. Good hitting by Panthers.

Booker two huge 3rd down catches.

Gonzo SWEET catch called incomplete, being challenged now. (going to ground, got hand underneath ball). Will be first if overturned.

1st and goal Falcons after call is called catch.

Kasay 50 yd FG, 14-13 Falcons.

Not many answers on defense for Atlanta. Carolina helped by running a sweep like play that lost 4 yards to a swarming group of Falcons but besides that, Panthers looked good running straight and passing with no pressure on QB.

 
I just don't like Turner much at all in this offense. :pickle:
Falcons want to run him but line gives him no room. Turner can only bust so many heads. If Ryan keeps this up, Turner will find more room.
Hope you're right but ya gotta think teams are respecting Ryan by now.
what happened to steve smith? sportsline said he got injured on last play and return is doubtful
Maybe they mean Muhsin Muhammed? He got hurt just before the last play of the half.

Last play was a Hail Mary so anything could have happened. Didn't see anything but they cut away from the game fast. Will listen to beginning of 2nd half for anything.Falcons offense is still pretty predictable. Run early in downs and pass later. They could open it up more by allowing Ryan to do more play action on 1st, he's had some nice success doing that.

CBS Rapid Report: Panthers WR Steve Smith was hurt on a Hail Mary at the end of the first half. Trainers are looking at him on the field now while the players head to the locker room for half.
 
Gonzo is playing out of his mind. Amazing catch after catch.
That's not out of his mind, that's how he always plays. We miss him in KC, but the last three years he had really become otherworldly with his ability to catch the ball.
 
I'm really not a homer, and especially so on penalties, but I just don't see the difference between what Louis Murphy did on Monday and what Rosario just did.

The slow mos looked a lot better and once they showed real time speed once more, I agree I don't see a difference. I thought his should have stood so also thought this should but it was close both times per the rules.
