The Atlanta Falcons head north to Charlotte to take on the Panthers for the second time in three weeks.
On the road, the Falcons are a short three-point favorite. This is a bit of a surprising line, as Atlanta beat Carolina on a technicality at home. So being at home, the Panthers should be able to finish off Atlanta this time around.
When the two teams played on October 30, Carolina nearly had the game won twice, but due to a player taking off their helmet too early, penalties gave Atlanta extra life to win the game.

Atlanta Flacons vs. Carolina Panthers Best Picks
With how these Thursday Night games have been going this year, the gut instinct is always to grab the under, but smart bets need a whole lot more than gut instinct.
The way these teams play, no edge can be gleaned. Carolina are 4 - 5 at over/under, and Atlanta are 5 - 4. However, looking at each team's point totals throughout the season, Atlanta average 24, and Carolina have less than twenty.
Also, the last time these two teams played, the score was 34 - 34 at the end of regulation. Expecting a slower-paced game in this one, and PJ Tucker not to throw for 400+ yards - if he even plays. The under is the smart play here.
Under 44 Points (-110)
Atlanta Falcons vs. Carolina Panthers Prediction
This game could easily go either way; the smart money would be on Carolina, judging by how things went the last time these two teams went at it. However, the Panthers looked absolutely horrid last week, and the game PJ Walker had in Atlanta may have been a miracle.
As a result, bettors should go with the team that has been consistent all season long, and that's Atlanta.
Atlanta have a record of 4 - 5, but more impressive is their 6 - 3 record at the spread. Good teams win, but great teams cover.
Atlanta -3 (-110)
