Both teams were supposed to be in completely different spots according to the previews and analysis before the start of the season, and no one would have believed that the Panthers would be ahead of the Falcons in the division a couple of months ago.

Then again, the teams must prove that they're good in the gridiron and not in the paper. Thus far, the Falcons have been abysmal and the Panthers have been a somewhat pleasant surprise through the first seven weeks.

Carolina Panthers vs Atlanta Falcons: Storylines

Teddy Bridgewater has been just fine for the Carolina Panthers thus far this season, completing 169 of 234 passes for 1,930 yards, 8 touchdowns, and 5 picks, and their offense is going to get a major boost with the return of Christian McCaffrey.

Their star running back has been on the shelf for several weeks now and he'll look to help the Panthers get another win vs. their divisional rivals after already beating them 23-16 on the road in Week 5.

Matt Ryan struggled the whole afternoon in that matchup, completing just 21 of his 37 passes for 226 yards and one pick with no touchdowns, although Todd Gurley did rush for 121 yards and one score.

The Falcons are sitting at a 1-6 record and are likely already planning ahead of the NFL Draft, while the Panthers are 3-4 and still have their playoff hopes alive, even after dropping back-to-back games.
