Honestly, the Panthers. Can see why you’d also take the Falcons though. Usually every time we play either team it goes down to the wire.

Yeah but I feel like this year we match up better with the Panthers. Matt Ryan has Jones, Sanu, Freeman, and Coleman. Where as Cam just has Funchess and Mccaffrey. Panthers when their OL is playing good is dangerous.

Falcons. Panthers usually have a game where they run all over us and didn't do that either time. I'd be worried about a defensive score from Keuchly flipping the game

Yea you know the Panthers will quit trying to protect him and they'll turn Cam loose on the ground in the playoffs. That could be a nightmare.

The Falcons have Rich McKay as Chairman of the Competition Committee.

The committee decides the ref's "points of emphasis" for each game.

When you play the Falcons, you have a Falcon emloyee who can substitute a ref at the last minute.

Beating a team three times in one season is tough

Tough question. Falcons are the more talented team, but they have also shown all season ways to play undisciplined football and lose to teams they shouldn't. Bipolar as frick.

Remember when the Jaguars were 14-2 and only losses all reg season were to Titans? Then they lost in the playoffs to... the Titans?

The Scamthers are a joke, no idea how they have the same record as us, we'd walk all over them if we played them in the dome again in the postseason. Those games never seemed close this season.

Panthers for the hat trick we’ve beaten them on the road with kelvin benjamin-albeit injured for most of game and beat them at home without him we seem to have the run-stop blueprint of beating them. The falcons would be an unknown in an arch rival rubber match with postseason on the line

When healthy we are one of the most compete teams with a deadly rushing attack. At full strength give me any team in the league. But I would love for the saints to be the team that knocks Atlanta out of the playoffs.

just FYI... Saints Head Coach Sean Payton is also a member of that same committee
