The Carolina Panthers and Atlanta Falcons do battle in Thursday Night Football week 10 NFL action at Bank of America Stadium. The Atlanta Falcons look to get back to a .500 record. The Carolina Panthers need a win after losing 5 of their last 6 games.

The Falcons are 3-1-1 ATS in their last 5 road games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 Thursday games. The Panthers are 8-21-1 ATS in their last 30 home games and 5-18 ATS in their last 23 games overall. The under is 4-1 in Falcons last 5 games on grass. The under is 5-2 in Panthers last 7 vs. NFC. The Falcons are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 meetings in Carolina and 10-4 ATS in their last 14 meetings. The underdog is 5-0 ATS in their last 5 meetings.
The Atlanta Falcons are probably the better team here with a more trustworthy offense that’s actually 10th in scoring, but they’re still a below average club overall that I’m not thrilled to lay points with on the road in a short week. The Carolina Panthers are still competing and playing hard, and that includes taking the Falcons to overtime on a road a couple of weeks ago. An outright Panthers’ victory would surprise nobody. I wouldn’t touch this game, but if forced to pick, I’m grabbing my free field goal and covering my eyes.
