Panthers, Falcons Lose; Bucs Can Take Two-Game Lead In NFC South

October 26th, 2025

What a fun early afternoon in the NFC South.

The Buccaneers rivals are about to lose by a combined 50-plus points.

Kirk Cousins started for the Falcons (3-4) and entered the fourth quarter against juggernaut Miami (2-6) with 97 yards passing. Atlanta lost 34-10 at home.

Joe had a few good laughs watching Atlanta struggle. In the first half, the Falcons ran up the middle on 3rd-and-10 with no success. And then Cousins threw far short of the sticks on 4th-and-7 late in the game. Cousins was nothing short of awful.

Carolina (4-4) ended its three-game winning streak in style after trailing Buffalo 40-3 after three quarters in Charlotte. The Bills ran it down their throat and Carolina’s passing game with Andy Dalton was impotent.

The Bucs should be able to up their record to 6-2 against the Saints later today. Anything less will have Joe barfing into the night.

    Hey Joe, you ought to know better than to take anything for granted when it comes to Bucs. I don’t gave a rat’s azz if the Saints are 0-7. Plus, factor in those d@@@ed refs.

    Also Chicago & San Fran lose.

    Niners and Bears both lost as well. More opportunity for us to extend a lead in the NFC.

    Good thing special teams and defense are starting strong… oh wait.

    Losiing to Miami will start the fire Rah chants out of the ATL. Of course Rah will use missing Penix and London as excuses. I made a small amount of coin on Miami as 7 points was a big spread for that game. With Miami and the Jets winning, some survivor pools will be decided today or thinned out to whoever took the Colts and New England today.
