-For the second time this season, QB Michael Penix Jr. is likely to be in the injury column. Drake London could join him, as both have knee injuries. Morris had no immediate news on their injuries.
The Falcons have not started 0-3 in NFC South play in a decade (2015). That was also the last time the Falcons were shutout by the Panthers in a game (38-0, Dec. 13, 2015) prior to Week 3 of this season.

-Falcons reporter Tori McElhaney points out that the Falcons are the first team in the Super Bowl era to have 18 or more defensive sacks in a 3-game span, but lose all those games. Like they say, make it make sense!
-When you are a struggling QB and want to make an impression, playing the Falcons could make you look very good. Just ask Panthers QB Bryce Young, who went 31/45, racked up a franchise record 448 pass yards and 3 TDs.

-If the Falcons lose to the Saints next week, they will share the NFC South basement with them at 3-8. With tough competition headed their way later this season, the Dirty Birds being the new cellar dwellers in the conference becomes a distinct possibility.
The Falcons’ win/loss record is bad regardless of where they play. They are 2 of 5 AT HOME IN MBS (so much for home field advantage) and 1 of 5 on the road. The Week 10 Berlin game with the Colts is considered an away game for the Falcons.
-Penix Jr., before leaving the game due to injury, was 175 in passing yards and 13/16. Bijan Robinson got 104 rushing yards from 23 carries and 2 touchdowns. Drake London (Baller of the Game) got 119 receiving yards from 7 receptions.
-The Falcons DID convert 3rd down today, 4 of 11 attempts. Better than nothing, which they got against the Colts last week.
-On the bright side, HOW ‘BOUT THEM DAWGS!
