Dates and locations for every game the Panthers play this year

The NFL has released the Carolina Panthers complete schedule for the 2024 regular season. Just from the predetermined opponents, we knew this wasn’t going to be easy. The start of the season is a mixed bag. Two out of three on the road, but against teams that may not be much better than the Panthers. The middle and toughest stretch of the season actually does the team some favors. They go to Germany in the middle of a stretch of homes games and have a bye immediately afterwards. They...

But now we can attach dates and times to those games.

Take a look at the full 2024 schedule...

Atlanta’s full 2024 slate is here.

We’ve been waiting on the Atlanta Falcons schedule for a while now, and with free agency quiet and the NFL Draft over, it’s the ideal time for the NFL to crash through the plate glass windows of our consciousness again. They’ve done so by releasing the 2024 schedule this evening.

As is custom, the Falcons unveiled one of the league’s better schedule videos to do so.

The team is lined up for four primetime games, and a slate that looks pretty manageable overall. You have four out of the first five games at home...

The NFL schedule release is here, and hosts Kevin Knight and Adnan Ikic are joined by Aaron Freeman (Locked On Falcons) to break down the Falcons’ 2024 gauntlet.

Fellow Falcoholics, welcome to episode 287 of The Falcoholic Live! The NFL schedule release is here, and hosts Kevin Knight and Adnan Ikic are joined by Aaron Freeman (Locked On Falcons) to break down the Atlanta Falcons 2024 gauntlet. Atlanta is rumored to have at least four primetime games after having zero in 2023, and are reportedly facing a particularly brutal start to the year.

Atlanta adds depth to their secondary with their final roster spot.

The Atlanta Falcons now have a full 90 man roster, with their final signing for the moment arriving on Wednesday afternoon. Atlanta has grabbed cornerback Anthony Johnson, adding more depth to the secondary as they gear up for organized team activities and mandatory minicamp in the weeks ahead.

Johnson, 24, spent time with the Saints and Packers on their respective practice squads but did not appear in an NFL regular season game in 2023. An undrafted free agent out of Louisville, Johnson has quality size (6’2”, 205 pounds) and...

Sean Payton will make his return to the Superdome on October 17th.

Earlier today, it was reported by Nick Underhill of New Orleans Football that the New Orleans Saints will host the Denver Broncos on October 17th for Thursday Night Football.

Somehow the NFL took one of the best storylines on this year’s schedule and messed it up by putting it on Thursday Night Football.

Sean Payton, the man who came to New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina and turned the franchise around, ultimately winning its first Super Bowl just four years into his tenure, is making his return to the...

It’s about time.

The Atlanta Falcons have not exactly been primetime darlings in recent years, a function of being neither particularly good nor particularly exciting. The team was scheduled for just one primetime game in 2021 and 2022 and zero in 2023, marking just two contests under the bright lights for Atlanta in the Arthur Smith era. They lost both of them.

Things are different now. The eyes of the NFL are on the Falcons thanks to the Kirk Cousins signing, the high-profile flirtation with hiring Bill Belichick and subsequent hiring of Raheem Morris, and the team’s decision to draft...

Games will be leaked throughout the day.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will find out Wednesday when they will be playing their respective opponents this upcoming season. There will be plenty of leaks throughout the day but in typical NFL fashion nothing is “official” until they release the schedules — or until they start airing their NFL Network schedule release show because, well, that’s what they do.

The Bucs had a successful season in 2023, reaching the Division Round of the NFC Playoffs before being bounced by the Detroit Lions. With that being said we can most likely see an extra...

Is the team currently in the market for another wide receiver?

The New Orleans Saints are still currently looking into the wide receiver market, per report.

Former Chiefs wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling reportedly fielded interest from the team before coming to an agreement with the Buffalo Bills. Both the Saints and Valdes-Scantling had interest in uniting in 2022 before the Kansas City Chiefs added a third year to up the Saints two-year offer.

With the market paper thin at this time of the year, there aren’t many additions the team can make that could move the needle for them. However,...
