Coach Talk

Billsrback
Well Billsrback, the good news is that we won this matchup by 46.48 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even stronger than this... as a matter of fact, our team's scoring average through Week 7 stood at 561.3. So while we're happy to have gotten this victory, let's get back up to where we know we can be!
Bad Boy
Our starting QB threw two interceptions and just a single touchdown? I guess we're presented with a fork in the road here: Were the Panthers truly that great defending the pass, or did Matt Ryan seem rattled back there in the pocket? This judgment is yours to cast... Bad Boy, as you deploy your lineup in Week 9 and beyond!
