Seems like #Falcons are incapable of playing close games in a win or loss.

ATL beats Carolina 40-20. ATL sweeps #Panthers this season.

#Panthers tally a late TD, but #Falcons are going to win this one.

Matt Schaub in to take the kneel downs.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Brian Hill rushes for 3-yard score. #Falcons add extra point & lead Carolina 40-13.#Falcons have a season-high 157 rushing yards on 30 attempts today.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Two #Falcons offensive lineman down field blocking on that run to the 3-yard line.

ATL threatening to reach 40 points today.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Can the Falcons play Carolina again?
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Koo makes a 50-yard attempt. Extends lead to 23 with 11:40 left.

ATL 33, Car 10.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

#Falcons have 104 rushing yards through three quarters today.

That's their second-highest total in a game this season.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Kazee is having a day. Two INTs & a forced fumble today.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

#Falcons pass rush has come alive. That's four sacks today.

Vic Beasley has two forced fumbles.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Zaccheus had a strong preseason. Earned his way onto the Falcons roster and you just saw why.
— Tom Pollin (@tjpollin) December 8, 2019

Koo cashes in his own fumble recovery with a 29-yard FG.

ATL in firm control. #Falcons 30, #Panthers 10.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Damontae Kazee forces a fumble on kickoff return. He already has an INT as well.

And ATL kicker Younghoe Koo recovers the fumble. It's mayhem here at the Benz
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Olamide Zaccheaus! Ryan finds him for a deep pass.

Zaccheaus made a strong adjustment to the ball in man-to-man coverage & broke a tackle for a 93-yard TD.

ATL 27, Car 9.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

#Falcons force punt. ATL has a chance to put #Panthers away early again with another TD on this drive.

ATL will start at own 9-yard line.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Oluokun is going to be a solid linebacker for a long time for the Falcons.
— Tom Pollin (@tjpollin) December 8, 2019

Devonta Freeman rushes for a 13-yard touchdown. He's having a nice day.

That's his first rushing touchdown of the season, and the #Falcons take full advantage of the #Panthers fumble.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Julio Jones is getting featured early in the second half.

He's over 1,000 yards for the season. Sixth straight year he's done that. #Falcons
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Vic Beasley sighting! Sack & forced fumble. #Falcons recover.

Offense needs to take advantage. They start this drive at Car 46.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Nice ceremony for Roddy White, but he had a pretty long speech.

Thought they might kick off the second half with the podium still on the field. #Falcons
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

#Falcons tried to save its final timeout & run a play quickly with 17 seconds left. But time nearly ran out & ATL carries that last timeout into halftime.

Maybe could've had a couple more plays into the end zone. Regardless, Koo makes FG to end half.

ATL 13, Car 10. Halftime.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

#Falcons announce Desmond Trufant has a forearm injury. His return is questionable.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Carolina's best drive of the first half comes in the two-minute drill. Allen drives the Panthers 87 yards for TD.

10-10. 1:05 left in 2nd Q.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Not bad coverage at all from Isaiah Oliver, but Allen drops a beautiful pass right into the hands of DJ Moore.

Carolina to Atlanta 38-yard line. Two-minute warning.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Matt Ryan just overthrows an open Julio Jones on second down. Would have been a TD.#Falcons fail to convert third-and-3 & now they will punt. They do nothing with the INT.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

#Falcons now have nine INTs this season. Five of them have been from Kyle Allen. https://t.co/UoVRopUdUt
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Deflection & big bounce goes Atlanta's way. Damontae Kazee with the INT.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Kendall Sheffield just had a wonderful opportunity for an interception. May have even been a pick-six had he caught it. #Falcons get a sack on the next play to force a punt.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Jones is on pace for 26 fewer targets this season than 2018. But he can still provide a big play at any moment. https://t.co/6vm74T11At

— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Freeman has 14 touches on the first three drives. Julio Jones has zero targets. #Falcons have called 13 running plays. Matt Ryan has 12 dropbacks -- 11 pass attempts, 1 sack.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Devonte Freeman running hard for the Falcons today.
— Tom Pollin (@tjpollin) December 8, 2019

Devonta Freeman running hard today. Good to see. #Falcons need to keep feeding him.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Panthers hit a FG in opening moments of 2nd Q. Game tied 3-3.

Initial thoughts on Scott Turner's playcalling -- he's definitely trying to get other parts of the Carolina offense involved besides Christian McCaffrey.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

#Falcons overcome 11-yard loss on a sack to drive into FG range. Koo hits 37-yard field goal.

ATL 3, Car 0. 2:47 left in 1st Q.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

#Falcons really trying to establish the ground game early in this one.

Why not? #Panthers are 29th in run defense. A productive running game should also help pass protection later in this game.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Matt Ryan just became the 10th player in NFL history with 50,000 yards. #Falcons
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Great first series for #Falcons defense. Three Carolina runs & only 4 yards.

Not much imagination from Scott Turner on his first possession as a playcaller.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

#Falcons execute on special teams perfectly but Christian Blake, who downed the ball at the 1, stepped out of bounds beforehand.

By rule, that's a touchback. Huge difference with Panthers starting at own 20 instead of 1.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

Matt Ryan & Calvin Ridley connect for 18-yard gain on first drive, but outside of that, Ryan not sharp on first possession.

Don't blame him after the hits he's taken the last couple weeks. ATL to punt.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) December 8, 2019

#Falcons have won the toss & will receive.
