00:01Yeah, that was what are you going to do with the goal line out here the tailback?
00:11Algiers seeking the end zone and a bowling balls in for the touchdown
00:20Robinson has to Algier has won
00:23this is a fired up football team knowing that they could have had a win last week in Berlin
00:32and let that game get away they're taking today's game so far
00:37the physicality this rushing attack B. John Robinson Tyler G. the entire offensive line
00:43the push that they're getting on the right hand side and got one man to beat
00:47and cheers have a run through the tackle at the end of Derrick Brown
01:06Atlanta's run game has been lethal today Algier had a couple last week in Europe.
01:13He's got one stateside today Atlanta by 14.
01:17He's got one of the best players and parties don't stop till eight.
01:23Sometimes the best beginnings start with a click pulling for a Falcons team that really felt like
01:28they should have won against the Colts last week.
01:31They went back to a few other games Patriots to talk to Raheem Morris said well we're close
01:35we've been there versus some of the best teams.
01:38Still pretty young teams got to figure out a way of finishing some of these games.
01:41Etienne on the return and he is knocked down by Harrison at the 32 as we check
01:47in with Kurt Menefee to see what's coming up on the Verizon halftime report.
01:54All right thanks guys with this week 11 slate we're turning up the heat.
01:58Coming up on the Verizon halftime highlights around the league as the playoff chase starts
02:02to boil over including the heavyweight fight in Buffalo between the Bills and the Bucks.
02:06We'll see you at the half.
02:07Of interest to both of these teams the Bills and Bucks.
02:13Tampa Bay at the top of the NFC South by a game and a half against Carolina.
02:189 for 11 for Bryce Young 84 yards gonna have to throw it here you'd imagine.
02:24Three timeouts minute 35.
02:27Young down the middle McMillan great catch into space.
02:31Tenorola McMillan the rookie out of Arizona long strides to the 30-yard line.
02:38Just talking to the break this is exactly what the Carolina Pandas offense needed.
02:42Some sparks some sort of big big play down the field you see the play action.
02:47Sucks up everyone the second level there's that window.
02:51McMillan does the rest so good getting yards after the catch.
02:55Talking to the defensive staff here in Atlanta.
02:58Said you know he's warranted the respect there's many times we match up AJ Terrell on him.
03:02Because he's accomplished enough as a rookie.
03:06It's a 39-yard catch.
03:09So fluid in the open field McMillan first down Carolina.
03:14They'll feed Hubbard this time.
03:16And Chuba Hubbard smashes across the 25.
03:19Till you want that element to is Bryce Young.
03:23Tells the team to huddle they're gonna take their time.
03:24And try to double up here before halftime.
03:27But the ankle injury you can tell it Bryce Young is walking very gingerly on it.
03:32And you go back to the previous match between these two teams had a rushing touchdown on that one.
03:36Utilized his legs a number of times to scramble and create plays.
03:39This is that area of the field too where Bryce becomes dangerous in that way.
03:42I wonder what the injury how effective he can be around the football and taking off.
03:49We haven't seen much of it since then.
03:52Flip it out to Hubbard.
03:54The catch and run Chuba Hubbard tightroping inside the 20.
03:58Ushered out by Jesse Bates.
04:00The safety for Atlanta.
04:01It's a gain of seven.
04:03You've got Tedron McMillan at the bottom of your screen.
04:05He's gonna run off AJ Terrell.
04:07This is all about inviting the pressure and the rush upfield and
04:10allowing Chuba Hubbard to be open in space.
04:12And Rico Donald shows up and has those big two weeks with Chuba Hubbard out.
04:22He took over the lion's share of the carries.
04:24But now Hubbard on this big drive for Carolina before the end of the half.
04:28And the Panthers remember do see the ball first after halftime.
04:34Hubbard again right down the middle directly into Bates.
04:38That was a bullseye of a hit and a timeout called by Carolina.
04:42They'll have two left.
04:4437 seconds to go first half and now these messages from State Farm.
04:50Having insurance isn't the same as having State Farm.
04:53It's like needing the protection of this guard.
04:57For getting that guard.
05:00Where do we even get this guy?
05:02Kevin Barnes v Franklin Elementary.
05:04Okay, stop, stop.
05:06Guys, actually the city ordinance do have to stop.
05:09You think I have a shot to make the team?
05:10No.
05:11Respect the best.
05:12Respect the best.
05:13So don't settle for just any insurance.
05:15When they're at State Farm.
05:16Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there.
05:2137 seconds to go for Bryce Young and the Panthers in the first half.
05:24But two timeouts.
05:25So your entire playbook is still in here.
05:26I mean, you can still run the football.
05:28And Beal, you realize that second timeout.
05:33A few times you can catch defense is still running a little pass coverage here with the light box.
05:36Hey, single, single, single, single, single.
05:40It's going low here.
05:41Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
05:42Young for Hubbard and a drop.
05:52Nearly on the pinball.
05:53Billy Bowman had a chance to get his mitts on it.
05:57The Falcons still trying to return the favor from their earlier matchup.
06:02Pick six in that one.
06:04That's Shaw Smith Wade.
06:05That was a shorter field in front of him from 11 yards away.
06:08But Bowman's a man.
06:10But no one's touching him if he picks that one up.
06:13This is that situation where you got to think that Tedrow and McMillan is going to be targeted.
06:22He's at the bottom of the formation.
06:24Closest to the formation right there.
06:30He's got Terrell over top of him.
06:32Young.
06:33End zone.
06:34Incomplete.
06:35He wanted McMillan.
06:37It's dead.
06:38It's fourth down.
06:40Tight window, but they all are down in the red zone.
06:44Had an opportunity, just couldn't quite get it up.
06:50Xavier Watts, the rookie out of Notre Dame, too, barreling down.
06:54He's been such a good player as he gets a hand on it.
06:57For the Falcons, Remorse said, you know, if you put on him and Jesse Bates,
07:01Bates is one of the best safeties in the league.
07:03Because if you didn't know, you wouldn't think Watts is a rookie.
07:06Looks like a veteran out there.
07:12Couple of interceptions his first four weeks in the NFL as Fitzgerald from 29 knocks it through.
07:18And Carolina's within 11.
07:21Falcons have two timeouts.
07:22We'll see if they try when we come back.
07:23The bad boys are gonna be in the field.
07:26My moderate to severe Crohn's symptoms kept me out of the picture.
07:30Now.
07:30I've seen a whole lot in the way of deep shots from this offense, despite the arm of
07:36of Michael Penix Junior and how
07:39effective it was in the deep shot
07:41category in college see what they
07:46do with twenty five seconds part
07:48of it will be decided by this
07:51return that Gerald kicks it away
07:53and on the return they drawn
07:56Brooks to the twenty nine nineteen
08:00seconds to go first half you're
08:02up eleven and coming up on the
08:04Verizon halftime we'll have some
08:06first half highlights from here
08:08bears Vikings as well a big one in
08:10the NFC North Kurt Howie Michael and
08:14Charles coming up with two time
08:17outs plenty of time to attack the
08:19middle of the field and try to get
08:20a chunkier what do you like I like
08:28Drake London that kind of work your
08:31way into some sort of in cut deep
08:33dig or just let's just hand the
08:35pull off and go in half time it's
08:36Robinson and down he goes at the
08:38thirty one and that'll be all so
08:42well that was disappointing we're
08:46gonna get a timeout here
08:49timeout by the Falcons their second so
08:55you run it to call timeout I I don't
08:57get it I don't I mean again that's
09:01scenario that were there where you'd
09:02like to try to take a shot see what
09:05happens you don't get so what not the
09:08rest of the half but they thought the
09:11run play would pop the way they've
09:12been running the football so far this
09:13first half
09:20all right see what they do on second
09:22down and we got a whistle before
09:25second down timeout Carolina Carolina's
09:28gonna use the timeout
09:30okay talked about that cat and mouse
09:33game between these two staffs very
09:36familiar with one another as
09:37divisional opponents but also going
09:38back to their coaching trees and time
09:42spent with one another
09:43the canalis calls a timeout I did not
09:47expect both teams to have called a
09:49timeout within the last twenty
09:50seconds of the first time gotta say
09:52they don't roll over Jason so you
09:53might as well use them if you got them
09:55right but you can't trade them in for a
09:57teddy bear or something right if you
09:59have extras they're not like tickets at
10:01the arcade
10:01I just hope this next place very
10:03exciting you and a couple million
10:08people watching it's a run they got
10:12the jersey Robinson's not down he
10:14breaks a tackle gets to the outside
10:17and breaks it down and that is how
10:21the first half exciting it was it's
10:24worth the wait
10:24interesting twenty one ten your
10:30halftime score it's time to get
10:32more stats with Geico Atlanta pads
10:35the run game a little bit they're
10:36short of a hundred for the first
10:38half a couple of long drives each
10:40way over seven and a half for both
10:42teams in the first half
10:44and McMillan is in it's a touchdown
10:55Carolina into a phone booth it's
10:58Robinson and he breaks two tackles oh
11:02my what a rugged run that was
11:06that was today's game flow presented
11:10by Progressive Atlanta puts up a
11:14run game and you feel like Atlanta
11:18at three and six this is what they
11:20wanted to be two backs that are
11:22tough strong runners Brady they're
11:25in that pocket of what this offense
11:27does best I think there's been times
11:29where they've showcased that this
11:30season just not often enough but
11:32there's no doubt this is their
11:33capability that this is what they're
11:35capable of becoming as a team to
11:37the way their defense been able to
11:38get pressure on Bryce Young but
11:40also offensively the balance that
11:42we're seeing the rushing attack
11:43also some of the plays the Michael
11:45Penix has been very efficient much
11:47better than what we've seen over
11:48the last four games about
11:49Carolina second half what do you
11:51have to see for this team to try
11:53to get back over 500 they got to
11:55find a way of running the
11:56football you know that's really
11:57been to me what's allowed this
11:59offense to be able to create some
12:01some big plays in the past game off
12:03the play action pass Hubbard on the
12:06return good field position coming
12:08up for Carolina to the thirty three
12:10for Chuba Hubbard and downstairs to
12:12Sarah Kusta coach I know you've
12:17always emphasized stopping the run
12:19game and Atlanta's got it going what
12:21do you feel like you should do it
12:23really starts with tackling we got
12:25guys in the right spots we got to
12:26get Bijan down he's having a great
12:28half we got to settle in and make
12:29sure we gang tackle everybody's got
12:31to get there to bring them down
12:32slow that part down so we can kind
12:34of balance this thing out
12:35offensively just some funky
12:36possessions you know we had a
12:38penalty back this way up the first
12:40drive was great we made some hate
12:41right there at the end of the half
12:42so we got to settle in get our run
12:44game going and make sure we slow
12:45them back all right thank you Sarah
12:47moments ago with Dave canalis the
12:49head coach of the Carolina Panthers
12:51see Bryce Young just full in
12:54completion so far he'll spin out of
12:56the play action and throw it wide
12:57for Dowdle catch and run and
12:59Dowdle is ushered out by Jalen
13:02Walker to gain a four Carolina
13:06offense just seven points against
13:08New Orleans last week the defense
13:10was good enough at Lambeau for the
13:11sixteen thirteen victory but we
13:13haven't seen big numbers recently
13:15no and really big plays that you
13:17should come along with that and
13:18right there they're trying to
13:19little play action shot downfield
13:21to McMillan wasn't there wisely
13:23Young checks it down they've got
13:25to start doing something to
13:26threaten the back end of this
13:28Falcons defense good play fake got
13:36it away it's Coker and Coker who
13:39was a motion man directly into
13:42Terrell he stays standing he
13:45delivers a hit at the end of this
13:47offense however just short of the
13:49first down your markers two plays in
13:51a row now
13:53Carolina Panthers trying to protect
13:55Bryce Young a bit some with
13:56protection but also moving outside
13:59the pocket in the ankle injury from
14:01the first half you wonder how
14:02healthy is how mobile he is
14:04they go under center here it's third
14:09and one they're two for six today
14:11on third down straight ahead
14:14Dowdle collapses forward and he
14:16does have the first down he and
14:18Harrison were jousting there and
14:20Dowdle wins by a yard just stop
14:25and think you know maybe I should
14:27have played linebacker on a play
14:28like that Brady no never never a
14:32time but Ronnie Harrison who's
14:34converted safety from his college
14:36days now playing with a lot of
14:38defenses look at that linebacker
14:40position someone called and then
14:42they're on a big nickel transformed
14:46more of an in the box player which
14:48he always excelled at as a safety
14:50ballgame in the ballgame and
14:52motion there he's been sort of
14:54gadget play guy play action
14:56Dowdle with a nice pickup of the
14:58blitz and Young gets it away for
15:01Coker it's a first down man Rico
15:04Dowdle made that happen data
15:07with a great pickup it's a
15:08downfield shot we've been asking
15:10for and I really think the
15:12Panthers need Jimmy Horn can
15:14went that direction to this
15:15thing's designed for Coker we're
15:19going to cross the field on
15:21Natron Brooks Brooks Brooks's
15:23first start Mike Hughes out the
15:27Alfred out second year player of
15:29Southern Miss it's picked on game
15:32number 19 for him that first
15:35start as you see tremble in the
15:37backfield along with Dowdle on a
15:39first down from the 36 clean
15:43pocket for young another deep
15:45shot down the left side he drops
15:48it in for Lee get brilliant throw
15:53from Bryce young and what a
15:59response by the Panthers to come
16:01out on their opening drive started
16:04the game this way starting the
16:06half this way we're going to get
16:08to a Tron Brooks Brooks he gets
16:13third touchdown reception of the
16:15season for the Panthers would love
16:17to get him going along with
16:19McMillan you mentioned the deep
16:22shots right deep balls 20 plus in
16:25the air the Panthers were bottom
16:27five in the league coming into this
16:29week we didn't see much of it in
16:30the first half they're going for two
16:32here trying to get a three point
16:39game they'll chase the points early
16:41in the third quarter young his head
16:53and drop by Pierce relentless edge
16:58rushers Walker and Pierce but Bryce
17:02young with a clean pocket and an
17:06exceptional throw for league at the
17:08Panthers are back in it quickly
17:16finds the end zone in under three
17:18minutes we get the touchdown from
17:20Bryce young but they went down field
17:21on the drive Brady they did and they
17:23found the matchup they were looking
17:24for nature on Brooks really is who
17:27they picked on the big plate of
17:28Coker in the touchdown pass that we
17:29get and it's in part because you
17:31know Falcons are concerned about
17:33Tedrow and McMillan and so they're
17:34matching AJ to roll up against them
17:36but James Pierce is able to get the
17:39sack on Bryce young the style of the
17:41two point conversion see those two
17:43edge rushers growing together in this
17:46defense it's a scary combination
17:48for quarterbacks
17:50this kickoff a little bit short
17:53Brooks picks it up and Brooks loses
17:56the football it's down on the ground
17:58let's see Carolina had the first
18:02crack at it they will unpack the
18:07pile it is Panther football
18:12Carolina and who man me Ellen come away
18:22with the football what a momentum swing
18:30and you feel for Brooks bad sequence of
18:33plays had a hard time getting the kickoff
18:36initially just carrying it too loose look
18:39how far the ball is away from his body
18:41tries to suck it there but it was Bam
18:45Martin Scott who ripped it away the
18:48rookie out of South Carolina the
18:49undrafted free agent who has been a
18:51special teams maven for Carolina special
18:57teams the past couple of weeks for the
19:00Falcons
19:02the fumble and recovery by Carolina has
19:04been confirmed please set the game
19:06clock to twelve zero one twelve zero one
19:08first and ten for Carolina man me Ellen
19:11didn't have to do much for that that
19:12big sported out right there in front of
19:14them early Christmas gift I mean we're
19:18only what 40 shopping days you're
19:23probably starting to play Christmas
19:24music one of those guys before
19:25Thanksgiving I don't know what your
19:27read on me is but that's a 180 tell
19:30the audience I'm wrong first down
19:33Carolina tremble in motion it's young
19:40rolling to the right throwing to the
19:41right and he goes for Lee get who
19:43actually wasn't touched down initially
19:45and he tried to turn it back up field
19:47so Xavier Lee get a couple of targets
19:49in a row there's a theme now to
19:51Kobe Bryant is in a cornerback number
19:5337 for Natron Brooks and they're
19:57going to pick on whoever's opposite
19:58of AJ Terrell and that's life in the
20:00NFL you've got a lockdown point on one
20:02side you're going to see a lot of
20:03action on the other side they stand
20:06up to the task and if not Raheem
20:07Morrison's staff I want to start
20:08thinking about getting some safety
20:10safety help on that side motion
20:16from Lee get it's a toss and it's
20:19Dowdle there's a flag coming in
20:21Dowdle ends up with about a yard
20:23but this looks like it's going to
20:24come back holding offense number
20:2718 10 yard penalty replace second
20:30down it's Coker the receiver on the
20:32outside but he was working on the
20:36edge you know the defense is trying
20:38to protect the edge and it's Arnold
20:45at the Katie it's a tough block for
20:47Coker to make it's a it's a tall
20:48task for a wide receiver on a guy
20:49who's we're gonna label as a
20:50linebacker he's really a defensive
20:51end in today's game now six two
20:53two two fifty against six three two
20:56thirteen Coker's no slouch but there's
20:58some size differential there so
21:00second and fifteen for Carolina
21:06now you're just trying to get half
21:07back put yourself in a decent third
21:09down position also helping to add
21:11yards to a potential field goal
21:13trial they have McMillan and Lee get
21:16on the same side along with Coker up
21:19top out of empty Bryce Young climbing
21:28the pocket on that ankle he drops
21:30it off over the middle and has a
21:31wide open Lee get who just grazes
21:34free for the first down and more
21:41and if you're a Falcons fan this is
21:43flashes of what you saw in Berlin
21:44last week giving up on third and
21:46long but take a look at Bryce
21:48in his pocket he's got that right
21:49ankle taped up gets outside he's
21:52just gonna flicks the ball to the
21:53get nifty little play Bryce Young's
21:57really made an act of that throughout
21:58the course of his his career as a
21:59quarterback you said point guard
22:01earlier and that's another look at
22:03somebody who's kind of like a
22:05basketball distributor Carolina off the
22:11turnover trying to take the lead
22:13doubt a little hesitation and he slammed
22:16down at the 13 second down for
22:18Carolina coming up and it's a huge
22:20game pivotal game for the Panthers
22:21at five and five Tampa Bay's in a
22:24real fight with Buffalo right now
22:26there's a chance maybe to pick up a
22:27game to close to within a half game
22:30in the NFC South for Carolina
22:32there's so many divisional games left
22:33for both these teams the rest of the
22:34way in the NFC South and right back
22:39there Dowdle puts his hand in the
22:40ground and they'll take three and
22:43four yards to set up third and
22:45manageable get a clean sweep though
22:47of the Falcons that would go a long
22:49way help the Panthers climb up and
22:51try to win this division they had the
22:54knockout punch on Atlanta last year
22:56final week of the regular season to
22:58push Atlanta to a seven straight
23:00losing season at eight and nine
23:03Falcons still have some hope here
23:05that likely have to win today third
23:08and four Carolina
23:11to the top of the screen Terrell backs
23:22off young throws this way he's got it
23:25for the tight end Jatavion Sanders
23:27who stacked up and short of the line
23:30to gain and now a decision for Dave
23:32Canales as you got Jatavion Sanders
23:35working against Kobe Bryant we talked
23:36about that substitution potential
23:38push-off here though watch the top of
23:40this yep hard to tell as he leaves the
23:43screen but usually two hands
23:45extending the arm will draw OPI very
23:48fortunate it wasn't the case Jatavion
23:51Sanders
23:54Kobe Bryant who said a couple of years
23:56ago he grew up hating tackling has
23:58gotten so much better at that at
24:01Kansas and now in his first action
24:03here it's fourth and one down on the
24:06tailback
24:10Bryce Young on the roll he pumps he
24:14leans and he's dragged down
24:16Cade and Ellis before Young could get
24:19there Ellis holds the line what a tackle
24:23what a stop all the misdirection
24:28everything before that play Ellis read it
24:30perfectly against the young before he
24:32could get to the sticks backwards with the
24:34football
24:40every who would who knew the way look at
24:42him respects the run still gets to the
24:44outside
24:45able to tackle young before even sticks
24:47but you wonder Jason if that ankle was
24:49healthy doesn't make it there in time
24:51yeah that is that margin he's playing with
24:56right now against his defense as
24:58Robinson gets hit after no gain Merrick is
25:01there by the way Caden Ellis the former
25:03locker mate of our new colleague through
25:06breeze did not know in his New Orleans
25:08Saints days yeah Caden told us this
25:09week he said I was the locker mate of
25:10Drew Brees because I got COVID early
25:13I'd say put me next to Drew Brees because
25:16they figured I was the one guy who
25:17couldn't give it
25:18usually like Drew they have more than
25:19one locker yeah so there's some
25:20separation I wonder if he was right
25:21next to him or a few lockers down the
25:23road yeah
25:24second down for Atlanta
25:28Drew's a two locker guy
25:29where you were Tom's a two locker
25:31I was a one locker one locker guy
25:33Kyle Pitts not off targeted today
25:37it'll be third down coming up even
25:39even in college
25:40no no you're two locker guys Tom
25:42no it's different three locker
25:44go
25:45you want to get that reputation before
25:46you get in the league
25:47you want to get that reputation
25:49before you get in the league
25:50you want to get that reputation
25:51before you get in the league
25:52you want to get that reputation
25:53before you get in the league
25:54Dublin you have to ruin that in the
25:55league to you the two locker
25:56time
26:00never fails
26:01put up your name
26:02so they the crew distances
26:04themselves from the people talking
26:09third down for Atlanta
26:16Mooney in motion
26:17tough snap to handle for panics
26:19fading back got it to London
26:20anyway
26:21nice work by Michael panics jr
26:23married on the coverage but it is
26:25first down Falcons
26:26it was all about the placement so
26:28he put this ball in a spot where
26:29Drake London could run to it even
26:31though he was under duress it
26:32wasn't a perfect pocket
26:34the shotgun snap wasn't perfect
26:36either
26:38that is huge for the Falcons who
26:40obviously had a big momentum
26:43change with the Ellis stop on
26:45fourth down now it's getting some
26:46first downs getting some momentum back
26:49and Drake London who has the most
26:53games with a hundred plus guards
26:55and a touchdown in the NFL has the
26:57first half of it here in the third
26:59quarter play action panics turns up
27:01field Michael panics jr on the run showing the wheels and out of bounds after nine and a half
27:12sport and took him to the paint but how about that dimension from panics and this is one of the elements that you heard Raheem Morris talk about during the week they'd like to see Michael panics take off more and make some plays with his legs he's one of the best athletes out there once he gets outside the pocket
27:16early in his career at Indiana he was much more of a dual threat quarterback it wasn't until he transferred to Washington really converted into a lethal pocket passer Robinson so tough to tackle another marker comes flying in this would be the fifth accepted penalty
27:45ten yard penalty we play second down against Atlanta Lindstrom was a question mark to play with the foot injury the captain on this offensive line with his second penalty
27:59let's take another look
28:02you can see that right hand up in the collar of a Sean Robinson who's
28:07in his tenth year Robinson still playing at a really high level
28:12he gets a lot of flack even at age 30 evidently that's right from his teammates
28:17old heads I think they call him unk in the locker room
28:19yeah
28:20are you chronically online son
28:23did we just learn though
28:25second down and eleven
28:27Robinson in motion Algier the tailback
28:31Penix will swing it this way incomplete
28:35he wanted Mooney
28:36and it's third down coverage from Mike Jackson the fifth year man out of Miami
28:43looks like Jackson got just enough in the way of Moody on this pass
28:47to catch it but this is a ball that Moody's got to come down with
28:51plus some of the struggles in this offense
28:55Penix takes a lot of fault maybe too much fault for how things have been going he's hard on himself
29:01he's going to step up out around
29:04late substitution for Carolina Penix only two incompletions all day long
29:10he's 13 of 15
29:13switching a couple of defensive backs and pressure coming
29:16blitz from Carolina Penix just has to spike it into the ground
29:19and let's see if a marker comes in on the hit
29:22Trayvon Merrick was in there
29:24and it is fourth down coming up Penix saw those walls collapse very quickly
29:29he's getting up Gimpy with that left knee and he's been battling through
29:32he's been battling through
29:36now he's down
29:38Penix is trying to get off the field but Mary hit him hard
29:41Penix started to walk off as he detailed Brady
29:47so both quarterbacks have gone down in this game
29:50Penix
29:56injured before fourth down
29:58go back to the week three matchup between these teams talking the staff said you know
30:04Michael had dinged up his knee then
30:05really didn't feel like he was feeling 100% for a couple of weeks after the fact
30:10another one of those causes to talk about
30:13this offense not finding an enough
30:15flow throughout the course of the season and struggling a bit
30:19maybe a little bit of a factor as well
30:26he's got an extensive injury history dating back to his days in college
30:28let's go to see him up walking off the field
30:31he is walking off pretty slowly
30:33he thought Danny long by the way also my old trainer there at the Cleveland Browns
30:36is that right
30:37yeah
30:43Penyon to point to ETN
30:45Carolina hoping for some good field position some movement at the line
30:49it's fourth and eleven so there's no first down available but
30:52you might see five extra yards to work with for Pinyon
30:59neutral zone infraction defense number thirty three
31:02five yard penalty
31:04remains fourth down
31:06Carolina came into today with
31:09only four offside or neutral zone infraction penalties all year
31:13and then they get one on punt return
31:15well Mukwamu is through the roster he's got brought up from the practice squad
31:20physical specimen still trying to kind of find his way onto the field on defense
31:23but
31:25it was core special teams players just
31:27a lot of natural ability
31:33for the Dallas Cowboy
31:35as Pinyon boots it away
31:36and it's a pretty good one to the twenty one yard line
31:40fifty two yard punt for Pinyon no return
31:42Bryce Young and the Panthers trying to come back next
31:52and Doug
31:53imagine him in Atlanta beautiful look at this
31:55venue from our
31:57director who celebrated a birthday yesterday
31:59Brian Biederman happy birthday
32:01to Brian happy birthday Brian
32:03so I'm aware of this
32:04I got in late obviously
32:06you missed the cake and the celebration
32:08Carolina
32:09and typically Tedderola McMillan leads a charge here
32:12Leggett big day good news
32:14for the Panthers
32:16and this past game
32:21ETN in motion into the backfield and they will give it to
32:25Dowdle the other tail back in there and Harrison bucks him down
32:28second down coming up but first Carissa with a game break
32:30thank you Jason Bill's bucks back and forth battle in Buffalo Sean Tucker finds the end zone for the second time today this one from six yards out they missed the two point conversion and lead this one by five
32:42Jason
32:45thank you Carissa that is the highest scoring game in the NFL so far in week eleven but
32:52we're right behind here in Atlanta twenty one sixteen maybe a little more offensive than expected
32:57with about twenty minutes to go
32:59low snap
33:01Young for Dowdle he has to reach out to get it and then turn and burn downfield
33:06Dowdle steps out of bounds
33:08it's a first down but man the gas pedal hard to the floor
33:12once he got outside of James Pierce who was
33:15trying to keep contained
33:17a lot of green grass for him
33:20these are sorts of easy completions and plays that Bryce Young's good making
33:26take care of the football working through the progression to find
33:29at times his third and fourth option
33:33Hugo Dowdle looks pretty healthy he was on the injury report
33:37with a quad issue early in the week
33:39Young just has to roll it onto the ground because everybody in Atlanta black was coming
33:44Billy Bowman has lived in the Panthers offensive backfield
33:48he is a player if there's a guy who pops on film it's number thirty three
33:52just has a natural knack for diagnosing screens
33:56play action run plays
33:58find his way to the football
34:00pretty good hands to you at eleven picks in his time
34:03at Oklahoma he had the first turnover for the Falcons defense
34:07this year in week two
34:13second down give it to Hubbard
34:16and he knifes through to the forty six
34:18so third down
34:20and four coming up for Carolina and the Panthers so far
34:23just three for eight on third down today
34:35big moment for Bryce Young who went out early
34:38looked like he was going to miss a series
34:41came jogging out of the tunnel put his helmet back on
34:46and he's got a third down and four staring at him
34:49Hubbard and Etienne together in the backfield
34:54Etienne in orbit around on motion himself this throw to the far side
34:58Mcmillan coming back for it and a Carolina first down it's a gain of nine they had to have four
35:07the timing the connection and really the ball placement by Bryce Young here
35:11it's just
35:13the spot where really AJ Terrell can't get to it
35:16Millen still rookie but
35:19talk about his strengths and his route running
35:22it's more like a veteran
35:24going real big here they bring in Evans and tremble a couple of extra tight ends
35:30play action off of that
35:33Young sets fires
35:35he's got it to Evans who just came in
35:38as an extra tight end down to the twenty yard line
35:42when you bring in three tight ends everyone thinks you're trying to run the football on first down
35:46meanwhile you throw to a guy
35:48least suspecting to get the ball the rookie
35:52out of Notre Dame Mitchell Evans
35:54it's a big target six foot five almost two hundred sixty pounds
36:01we saw him part of that past game in the college football playoff title game last year with a handful of catches
36:07a handful of catches
36:10this dimension for the Panthers
36:13Dowdle this time running right
36:15Dowdle across the twenty yard line and man oh man Damian Lewis a big hit he was down
36:22it is not a fumble Dowdle was down but Damian Lewis just absolutely pulverized an oncoming Falcon
36:31yeah that's every bit of six to three thirty pulling around all the way to the outside
36:36this is tough sledding if you hurt
36:40Neatron Brooks
36:42poor guy
36:43it was loud real time
36:45they're throwing out of their running out on their porn left guards at the guy
36:48life comes at you fast as the kids used to say
36:52he's only got about 150 pounds on him
36:55oh yeah it's
36:56best of luck
37:00bottled up Dowdle so far
37:02Young and that is dropped by Tremble who paid the price Jesse Bates slid in
37:09and it's third down coming up Tremble was living with the drop and then Bates cracked him
37:16Tremble's lucky to get injured this is well after the play was really over
37:20but like that's the need of the cause serious damage
37:26to Tremble out Evans out
37:29three wide up top
37:33Leggett Coker and McMillan
37:35that's the match that the Panthers have been working
37:39especially when one-on-one man to man coverage
37:40slight motion from McMillan
37:44Young down the field
37:46tipped and incomplete
37:48he wanted Leggett but Tremble got the hand up to knock it away
37:52what a play by A.J. Tremble
37:57that's just the elevation
37:59the routes there the ball just has to be right at the back of the end zone it's not even Tremble's guy
38:04working against Bowman
38:05these hops
38:12flicked it away A.J. Terrell
38:18here is Fitzgerald
38:20from 34
38:26it is good
38:30Carolina down to
38:32A.J. Terrell has been following Ted Aroa and McMillan
38:35now he ends up making a play away from that
38:41Santa, Santa, did you get my letters?
38:44I'm not an elf
38:46Elf? I'm 6'3
38:48you want your family to go to team
38:50took a hard hit, labored off the field
38:52went to the medical tent and we were told that he is questionable to return with a knee injury
38:56however he's sitting on the bench with a towel on his head
38:59had a quick conversation with Kirk Cousins
39:01he's been warming up on the sidelines
39:03appears as though Cousins will be the quarterback entering the game when Atlanta receives possession
39:09Sarah thank you for that
39:11that is tough news for the Falcons who've moved the ball
39:14today as Brooks on the return gets tripped up and slid down
39:20so first down for Atlanta
39:24and here comes Kirk Cousins
39:27game number 167 of his career in the NFL
39:32and a mixed reaction from the locals
39:35we filled in week eight versus Miami
39:38not the result they were hoping for in that one
39:43offense will change
39:44offense will change
39:46a bit with Kirk Cousins in there he's
39:48pretty good to get the ball to his hand quick
39:51staying within the pocket
39:53runs like we saw from Pennix earlier scramble for the first down
39:56most likely more under center
39:59as well
40:01rather than the crystal formation you see so much
40:03with Pennix in there it's a stretch play
40:05it's Algier
40:07so how does Carolina counter Brady?
40:09is it more in the box?
40:10is that the opinion of the Carolina defense?
40:11well you got to stop the run yeah you want to load up the box to stop the run
40:14because you know Cousins is a backup coming in off the bench
40:17a big cold you're probably not taking many reps during the week
40:19look he's a 14 year vet so he's prepared for it but
40:22one of the things off that Achilles he suffered
40:25was his ability to get from under center out to the handoff for an outside zone
40:29you even saw that last play
40:31getting up there in H kind of laboring a bit
40:33hitting the ball just to the running back
40:35so this time they worked out of the pistol after going under center on the first play
40:38it's Algier to the right side this time
40:42and he hits the hole hard for four and a half
40:45it'll be third down and short likely at the end
40:48of quarter number three
40:54so Kirk Cousins
40:56trying to lead the Falcons
40:58to win number four
41:00Bryce Young and the Panthers on the comeback trail
41:02it's a two point game to the fourth
41:32all the days are coming
41:33all the days are coming
41:34all the days are coming
41:35all the days are coming
41:38fantasy movies on Tubi will be free forever
41:41so I'll be a goblin and a stinky dog
41:44forever
41:46forever
41:47oh no
41:49Carolina has only swept Atlanta twice in franchise history
41:53they're trying to come back at over 500
41:55but the Falcons by two
41:57Kirk Cousins in
41:58Michael Penix Jr. out Brady
42:01he's gonna change the dynamic of the offense a bit
42:05this is the experienced bet
42:07he's used the hard count too from time to time
42:09oh they're gonna sneak it
42:10get those legs moving
42:12Kirk Cousins
42:14rapping on the door of 40
42:15has a first down
42:17he's an older quarterback
42:18this used to be a thing
42:19before the whole push push
42:21quarterbacks just used to take it themselves
42:23that's still in the playbook there
42:25you just dated yourself
42:26that's fine
42:28old guys are
42:30saying themselves
42:32why can't you just sneak the ball
42:34he did very successfully
42:36three runs so far with Cousins in the game
42:39first pass
42:42Cousins for Algier out wide and Merrick meets him hard
42:46let's take another look at that hit from Merrick
42:57such a good open field tackler
43:00Algier is tough to bring down
43:02but
43:04we'll wrap up and get him down to the ground
43:06one of the biggest differences you'll see is the downfield passing in
43:08and Pennix has such a strong arm
43:11under his Cousins
43:13and
43:14Zach Robinson feel comfortable
43:16going downfield just coming into the game like this
43:18we got a quarter
43:20to play with
43:21you have the lead
43:23Cousins
43:25short set
43:26got it away
43:27that's Pitts the tight end
43:29right at the stick
43:30it looks like he might be a quarter of a yard short
43:33just a simple slant route
43:40we'll find the timing and the soft spot of the zone coverage as Pitts is
43:44continuing to develop still
43:46as a pass catcher with the variety of routes he can run
43:50but boy is he a specimen you see him on the field before the game
43:53love to throw to a guy with a catch radius like that
43:56Pro Bowl so young right
43:58the ceiling keeps moving up
44:00for Kyle Pitts
44:02ready
44:04push up
44:06they're gonna hand it off instead
44:07and that's going nowhere
44:09Roseboom got in there first
44:13Dijon Robinson rarely
44:16loses yards like that
44:18Carolina holds the line
44:19look at the line of scripts
44:20the initial push too from the defensive front
44:23it's a stymie at best
44:25and Roseboom was along with the rest of the linebacking group
44:28have free runners to the backfield
44:30Robinson had no chance
44:32first year Panther Kristen Roseboom
44:38who has had a whale of a season leading this team and tackles
44:41he had nine of them in the first meeting against Atlanta that big
44:45Carolina win
44:46pinion for ETN
44:47they'll get it back next
44:48it's turned back the clock day here in Atlanta Brady
45:00apparently so but it'll be Bryce Young now with the opportunity to try to get his team back in front
45:04a lot of field to go but they started to get the running game going
45:06Dattles got going
45:07Dattles got going
45:08McMillan as well
45:09we'll see if they can introduce some other pieces
45:10into this past game
45:11Carolina from the 16th
45:12Carolina from the 16th
45:16Drung will check
45:18and he will throw
45:20Young this way wide open McMillan again mini hurdle
45:22this way wide open McMillan again mini hurdle
45:26and he's knocked out of bounds by Natron Brooks
45:28boy they are finding Natron Brooks aren't they
45:30yes that's the match if you want if they're not going to trouble AJ Terrell
45:32they're going to go ahead and throw it to Tet
45:34McMillan every single time
45:36it's the second time too they've run this round
45:38and it's the second time too they've run this round
45:39it's just a little bit good
45:40and it's just a little bit better
45:41and it's just a little bit better
45:42from the 16th
45:43Drung will check
45:44and he will throw
45:45Young this way wide open McMillan again mini hurdle
45:51and he's knocked out of bounds by Natron Brooks
45:53boy they are finding Natron Brooks aren't they
45:54yes that's the match if you want
45:55if they're not going to trouble AJ Terrell
45:57they're going to go ahead and throw it to Tet
45:59McMillan every single time
46:01in real time the second time to
46:03they've run this route it's the
46:05in cut that sells it to switch
46:08the hips of Brooks that allows
46:09all that room to throw the
46:10football to on the outside for
46:11the big game over a hundred
46:14yards again for Ted a roll
46:15and McMillan the motion from
46:23the get straight ahead doubt or
46:25running hard it's a gain of four
46:28second down coming up.
46:31Wednesday night college hoops
46:33double header on FS1 starting at
46:35seven Eastern number five
46:37Arizona against solo ball and
46:38UConn off their big win in
46:40Boston against BYU last night
46:42then Alabama Illinois some great
46:44non-conference games early in the
46:47year in college basketball you're
46:49going to love the analysts on the
46:50Arizona UConn game Bill Rafferty
46:51will join us.
46:52Oh I love Raff.
46:54What are you talking about me on
46:56Sunday.
47:01second down Young short set again
47:04and that was into trouble it is
47:06Legette the ball's on the ground
47:07look like an incomplete pass but
47:09they're going to let it play
47:10Harrison down the sideline
47:12Harrison wants to score he's in
47:15let's see
47:17yeah this is I have no idea why that
47:22was play play on
47:22incomplete pass
47:25incomplete pass
47:26yeah it was an incomplete pass I
47:29didn't hear a whistle though did you
47:30no it was very apparent let's take
47:32another look Xavier Legette working on
47:34rather than Natron Brooks and the
47:37ball's just going to feel you know
47:39Legette needs to do a better job of
47:40using his body to shield Brooks from
47:42making the play but
47:43it's either incomplete or he's down
47:49he's down yeah it's definitely not a
47:51touchdown yes it's not if I'm going
47:54the other way for a touchdown I have no
47:55idea what took them so long to figure
47:57that out Dean did chime in and
47:58confirm it's incomplete
48:02thank you Dean looks like he's taking
48:04creatine these days got all jacked up
48:06so you see him on camera
48:08third and seven
48:11for Carolina
48:18Watts coming up to the line for the
48:20safety spot they will bring the
48:22pressure Watts got there Young spins
48:25out of it keeps his feet and down he
48:27goes it's Harrison finishing the deal
48:30after the pressure from Watts
48:32Harrison finishing it Ellis would have
48:39had a shot and they're bringing an all
48:41out pressure Young checked like he knew
48:43what he had I don't know why he's not
48:46getting rid of the football yes it keeps
48:49the clock running but we still got plenty
48:50of time left it's odd he's done that a
48:53couple times now we've seen the pressure
48:54look but he has not been able to execute
48:56the response to that pressure the play he
48:58got hurt on in the first half was one of
49:01those plays as this ball ends up inside the
49:0420 so Sam Martin pins the Falcons back they
49:09lead by two against Bryce Young and the

50:32bishon robinson this is where they found a lot of
50:34success in the first half i'm unable to get some points on
