Heightened emotions in an NFC South division matchup between the Panthers and Falcons boiled over following a Roman Harper penalty late in the third quarter.

This was just the beginning. On the next play all hell broke loose. Harry Douglas and Josh Norman were wrestling when Devin Hester dove into the fight with his helmet and was assessed with a penalty of his own.

Things got out of hand from there. Both sides were pushing and shoving, with announcers saying there were some kicks in the pile.

It even got a writer for the Atlanta Falcons all riled up.
