In the 293rd episode of The Bow Tie Chronicles podcast, host D. Orlando Ledbetter discusses the Falcons 19-13 loss to the Carolina Panthers, who rushed for 203 yards and sacked Matt Ryan three times and hit him nine times.

Tight end Kyle Pitts and wide receiver Tajae Sharpe stop by to discuss the game and how not having wide receiver Calvin Ridley played a role in the defeat. The Falcons dropped to 3-4 on the season and wasted a chance to move over the .500 mark for the first time since the 2017 season.
