Carolina Panthers +6 (-110)
You feel that? The feeling in your stomach when you read that I am recommending you bet on the Carolina Panthers? Ok, good. I felt it too and that’s why I am recommeding it. Look, I can talk about the point spread, the offensive / defensive matchups, even the head coaches. But, I won’t do any of that. According to my power rankings, the line is just about right here. However, I am going with the more old school handicap on this one. This is a divisional game, where the home team is getting almost a full touchdown. Not to mention, the last we saw the Falcons, they had a dramatic come from behind victory against the Bucs in primetime, where Kirk Cousins threw for over 500 yards. The Panthers were getting their heads kicked in by the Bears. Sentiment is all over Atlanta in this one. Exactly why you HAVE to be on the Panthers. This is one of those games where you close your eyes and trust history. The home dog in these games tends to cover.
