The current betting odds have the Falcons listed as a 4 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Falcons have been a really good team all year with one of the best ATS records in the NFL this season. They just got blown out on the road by the Bengals in their last game but that was their 1st real bad game and they will be looking to bounce back here now that they are back at home and in a divisional game. The Panthers have been the complete opposite this season, they have had a terrible start and just traded away 2 of their biggest offensive weapons, but they responded to those trades and their head coach being fired with a huge upset win over the Bucs on the weekend. That game likely took a big effort from them though and now that they are going on the road here in another divisional game after that huge win, this will be a letdown spot for them. The Falcons have been the better team all year and they are going to be hungry to bounce back with a win after the way they played last week. This is a great spot to catch the Panthers in after that huge win as they are going to start feeling the absence of the players they pretty much gave away. The best way to place a bet here is on the Falcons to cover the spread in this game.
