CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- A steady rain fueled by Tropical Storm Nicole made for some messy conditions in Thursday night's tilt between the Atlanta Falcons and Carolina Panthers.
The Panthers came through with a 25-15 victory, 11 days after the Falcons beat the Panthers in a wild 37-34 overtime game at Atlanta.
Carolina Panthers
Don't laugh, but the Carolina Panthers remain relevant in the NFC South. As bad as they've been, the division has been nearly as bad and is winnable for a team that is 3-7 after Thursday night's victory over the Falcons.
