Welcome to this weeks edition of the Bloody Hour Panther fans. I'm actually going to launch this weeks edition a little early since we haven't had any fresh posts since Friday. My apologies for that CSR members, I've had a kid int he hospital for a couple days but he's doing well, back home and just in time for Panther football! That's right 1-11 and I'm still ready to watch some Panther football.

We've got the Dirty Birds coming to town and that trumps anything else in my world (except a kid in the hospital of course). So we know there is going to be some hitting for 4 quarters no matter the score. Having just got home I'm going to have to resort to linking up other game previews and then lets talk predictions.

From Panthers.com here are some things to watch:

"We're underdogs, but at the end of the day, records don't really matter," Carolina quarterback

Jimmy Clausen said. "The only thing that matters is what's inside this building."

Here's some beat writers copying our Blogger Q&A format.

From The Falcoholic here's 4 critical match-ups for the game. Here's another one that might interest you in which they explore what exactly the Falcons might fear about the Panthers. That's a big 'might'.

So now we come to our predictions. Last weeks winner was Figgi4Life who guessed a Seahawks 35-20 victory, fairly close to the 31-17 outcome.

So let's hear your Falcons vs. Panthers game predictions Panther fans even as ugly as it might be...

ENJOY WITH ABSOLUT RESPONSIBILITY®
