=11.0ptAtlanta is coming into this contest having won back-to-back games over New Orleans and Tampa Bay. At 3-2, things are looking up for the Falcons, who had lost 2 of their first 3 games. In their most recent game against the Bucs, Kirk Cousins went off for 500+ passing yards and 4 touchdowns. Darnell Mooney caught 2 of those touchdown passes and finished with 105 yards while Drake London put up 154 yards on 12 receptions. The 36-30 overtime win was one of the best wins in recent memory for the Falcons. However, in the last 2 wins, Bijan Robinson has been quiet and gone for just an average of 75.5 total yards. They will need more production out of him going forward. For the Panthers, things have not gone well since the 1st game under Andy Dalton. After defeating the Raiders 36-22 in Dalton’s 1st game taking over for Bryce Young, they have lost to Cincinnati and Chicago. Dalton is completing under 65% of his passes and has thrown just 2 touchdowns to his 2 interceptions. Chuba Hubbard has been their bright spot over the last 2 games. He is averaging over 100 yards on the ground and has scored in each game.
