The Carolina Panthers head down I-85 South on Sunday to face the NFC South rival Atlanta Falcons. Shaq Thompson has made progress throughout the week that suggests that he'll return on Sunday but there's another injury to the defense heading into Sunday's matchup.

The Friday Mailbag returns for another week including questions about whether the Panthers will look to add a new QB at the trade deadline, bring back former QB Cam Newton, and if Matt Rhule is suited to be an NFL head coach for the long haul.
