Falcons vs. Panthers Score: Julio Jones and an amazing defense effort lead Atlanta to a road hassle

by Seth Grace October 31, 2020 Sports

The Falcons, led by Matt Ryan, Julio Jones and a defender who scored just three points in the second half, beat the Panthers 25-17 on Thursday night. Ryan hurried 281 yards for a touchdown. Jones caught seven passes for 137 yards for the Falcons, who have won two of their last three games since starting 0-5.

Atlanta scored four of their five first-half runs. Yangho Ku scored three goals in the first half, while Ryan scored his 10th career touchdown run on his 13th friend Scamper. Ryan’s score came shortly after the Falcons stoned Panthers quarterback Teddy Bridgewater tried to run on the fourth and a game. Carolina received a touchdown from receiver Curtis Samuel in the first two halves. Her 12-yard run gave the Panthers a 7-3 lead, while her 29-yard score (out of a flick flicker) gave Carolina a 14-6 lead in two minutes in the second quarter. The Falcons took a 16-14 half-time lead with consecutive scoring drives.

Early in the second half, Foesade Olukun and Grady Jarrett joined Mike Davis in the fourth and a back yarder with Steff Panther running back. With the stop, Coo’s fourth field goal was a 30-yard effort that extended Atlanta’s lead to five points. Atlanta was preparing to recapture the ball when the Panthers ran a pair of fake pants featuring a winner, Jeremy Chin, who took a straight pinch and flew 28 yards to the Falcons’ 40-yard line. The Panthers gambled in a 39-yard field goal by Joey Stitch.

Atlanta responded with an 11-play, 75-yard drive that was stopped by Todd Gurley’s eighth touchdown run of the season. Atlanta had an eight-point lead after missing a coup attempt. The two teams traded the pants before the Panthers took their left hand at 2:58 on their respective five-yard line. Facing third and 18, Bridgewater joined DJ Moore for a 42-yard touchdown as the Panthers put the ball on the Balkans’ 24-yard line. But after a great completion, three plays, Bridgewater, which missed three plays after suffering a neck / head injury early in the fourth quarter, were stopped by Bledie Vareh-Wilson, the Falcons’ second win of the season.

A closer look at what happened Thursday night.

Why the Falcons won

Atlanta got a great performance from Ryan and Jones. The pair was also complemented by a runner-up attack who achieved 131 yards and two touchdowns on 361 carriers. Kenu Neil, led by Dion Jones, Isaiah Oliver and Dante Feller Ferr Jr., came up with a number of important stops allowing the bottom 17 points of the rescue season. Atlanta won despite the absence of receiver Calvin Ridley, who left the game with an ankle injury during the second quarter.

Why the Panthers lost

Carolina’s inability to make changes in two separate quarters and a play. And when they managed to switch to the bottom of the fourth (the big run of symbols fourth and 9 on the Panthers’ fake pants), the Panthers were placed on a field goal. The Panthers, despite their success on the field, tried only 22 running plays, including only 13 attempts to get Mike Davis back. The Panthers, who were just 2-of-10 at number three, had the ball in less than 24 minutes.

Turn

The Panthers set up Samuel’s second touchdown after cornerback Don Jackson’s interception that extended Carolina’s lead to 14-6. Ryan, however, responded with a box, and put the Falcons ahead on four consecutive scoring drives. In contrast, Atlanta survived with two major fourth-down stops during that time.

Game of Thrones

There were a lot of nominees, but Foesad Olukun’s fourth and Bridge Water’s second-quarter stop and takes a cake. The stop helped the Falcons take a two-point lead at half-time.
