There is nothing that i see to keep me from taking Carolina. They will make it 11 covers out of 15. The undefeated season will remain intact. Their defense has gotten torched lately and I look for them to get that squared away and hold Atl. to a minimum. I can see a 34-10 final.   ---    THE Myth

After last weeks scare vs NYG ,Im thinking Caro comes out hard and heavy and puts this away 35 - 17

Carolina 35 Atl 24

After finally winning last week the Falcons are still alive in the Wild Card hunt at 7-7 and while their chances are slim they’ll be bringing their A game as they attempt to knock off the undefeated 14-0 Carolina Panthers.

From a match-up perspective the Panthers run the ball consistently well but may not play to their average in this game without top back Jonathan Stewart as they face an Atlanta rush defense that’s played well at times. The Falcons allow 4.0 ypr against teams that average 4.3 ypr but were gashed for 144 rushing yards at 4.8 ypr two weeks ago when the Panthers blew out Atlanta 38-0 so it appears that they might not match-up particularly well. If Carolina gets their run game going they will be hard to defend, especially with a pass defense as bad as the Falcons (allowing 6.8 yps against teams that gain 6.3 yps).

The Atlanta offense has been below average this season (generating 5.6 yppl against teams that allow 5.7 yppl) and will have a hard time on the road against one of the top defenses in the league. The Panthers defend both the run and the pass well so unless there is some regression to the mean in this game in the turnover department the Falcons are going to struggle. Carolina leads the league with a +19 turnover differential (+7 in fumbles) while Atlanta has had problems (-6 overall including -5 in net fumbles).  

 Car -6.5 & over 47. bol!!! 

Atlanta's last 10 have been 9 unders and a push. I see nothing in this game (with Carolina's above average defense) that would change this pattern. I hate unders, but I think's that's the bet here. A fairly high number at 47.5. GL.

Im expecting the playbook will involve CAM in running alot today. Missing Stewart hurts but this team is focused n still banging hard.

CAR -8.0

Carolina with a win gets home field throughout playoffs!!!

Atlanta goes back to there losing ways Carolina all day

come on matt ryan...
