Panthers Loss to Falcons Marks End of Perfect Season

If any two thoughts could perfectly frame the first 15 games of the Atlanta Falcons’ 2015 season, those twin observations might do it.
Suitably informed, the former Alabama great jumped as if shot from a trampoline to grab the ball, then wheel and race the final 18 yards to the end zone.
Carolina (14-1) got the ball with 90 seconds left and no timeouts remaining.
The Carolina Panthers’ pursuit of a ideal National Football League season ended on Sunday (Monday in Manila) with a stunning 20-13 loss to the Falcons in Atlanta.
The pressure is off. Sunday the Carolina Panthers lost their first game since November 28, 2014, what a ride.
The whole Atlanta team, including owner Arthur Blank, were doing the “dab” dance to mock Newton and the Panthers following the win and Schofield said he had no regrets about doing it in front of Carolina defensive end Charles Johnson. The Panthers came into the game 14-0, and Newton is the front-runner for the NFL’s Most Valuable Player Award based not just on his passing and running, but also on his leadership.
Newton, the Panthers’ MVP candidate, threw for 142 yards and was held without a touchdown pass for only the second time this season.
Eric Decker’s 6-yard touchdown catch from Ryan Fitzpatrick on the first drive of overtime – after New England chose to kick off – lifted the Jets to a 26-20 victory Sunday that put NY in position to make the playoffs. He also led a key fourth-quarter drive that produced a field goal from Shayne Graham.
The 13 points were the fewest scored by the Panthers in a game all season.
They went on to score six points again in the final quarter of the game too.
Carolina Panthers head coach Ron Rivera watches his team play offense against the Atlanta Falcons du … “We gave ourselves a shot”.
The Falcons (8-7) spoiled the Panthers’ undefeated record only two weeks after being humbled in a 38-0 loss at Carolina.
“We didn’t handle the business in the stadium today, so we’re left to look around at other stadiums”, coach Mike Tomlin said after Pittsburgh’s three-game winning streak was halted.
The 1972 Miami Dolphins are the only team to record a ideal championship season-going 14-0 in the regular season before winning three playoff games that included a Super Bowl triumph. But he played through it all and completed 23 of 30 passes for 309 yards and a touchdown. Instead, in a play that Ryan has delivered numerous times to pull out late wins, he connected with Julio Jones on a 70-yard touchdown midway through the second half that was equal parts skill, luck and experience.
Carolina needed a win or tie or an Arizona loss or tie against Green Bay to clinch home-field advantage for the NFC playoffs.
One week after battling New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr physically and verbally, Carolina Pro Bowl cornerback Josh Norman struggled to keep up with Jones.
Marc Mariani, return specialist, Chicago Bears: The Havre native caught two passes for 32 yards in the Bears’ 26-21 win over the Bucs.

On the game’s biggest play, Kuechly and safety Kurt Coleman had Atlanta’s Julio Jones on a long prayer tossed up by Atlanta quarterback Matt Ryan.
