Falcons vs. Panthers 

Neither of these teams are playing well right now.  The Panthers were just blown away on Monday Night Football 45-21 by the Philadelphia Eagles, and although the Falcons defeated the Buccaneers on the road last week 27-17, they had lost five straight before that win.

I think the Panthers will play better this week, primarily because they can’t play much worse.  But the Falcons will use last weeks victory as a confidence booster and I think that will propel them to a close division win on the road.        NFL Picks
