Falcons vs Panthers Predictions and Picks
Atlanta is tied for 20th in passing yards, fourth in rushing yards, tied for 21st in total points scored, and second in points against. The Falcons were all about rushing the ball last week, and that will continue this week. The Panthers rushing defense ranks below average, allowing 5.7 yards per carry. They also do not put much pressure on the quarterback, which should give Michael Penix Jr. enough time to finish drives in the end zone.
Carolina is ranked 13th in passing yards, 27th in rushing yards, 29th in points scored, and tied for 23rd in points conceded. The Panthers will want to get their offense going early against the Falcons, but Young will need to be more effective with his passes and limit turnovers. Furthermore, the Falcons are excellent at rushing the quarterback, and Young will need to be prepared to make quick choices. Carolina will also try to avoid falling behind early and develop rhythm on both sides of the ball.
Best Bet: Falcons Spread
The Falcons will want to control time of possession and finish strong rushing drives in the end zone. The Panthers' offense will aim to carry momentum from the finish of the previous game into this one, and they must play clean football. However, Atlanta's defense will force turnovers and should dictate the pace of the game.
