TOM STRYKER’S FREE FOOTBALL SELECTION SUNDAY, OCTOBER 13TH
#281 ATLANTA (-6) over Carolina at 4:25 PM EST
Off a pair of straight up division home wins over New Orleans and Tampa Bay and with a few extra days to prepare, Atlanta will travel to Bank of America Stadium and pick up another NFC South dub and cover over Carolina. The Panthers enter this showdown off a pair of SU and ATS losses to the Bengals and Bears and they don’t match up well at all in this division battle.
Considering Atlanta lost at Carolina by the final of 9-7 in the last meeting between these two teams back on December 17th, 2023, there is no way head coach Raheem Morris and his players will take this game lightly. As it stands, when playing with revenge in this series, the Falcons hold a profitable 13-5 SU and ATS tally in the last 18 meetings. Also, as a guest arriving with momentum off two or more straight up wins, Hotlanta holds a solid 11-4 SU and 10-4-1 ATS mark provided their opponent arrives off two or more straight up losses. If the Falcons own a team won/loss percentage of .501 or better, this team trend jumps to a nearly perfect 8-1 SU and 7-1-1 ATS.
In the middle of a horrendous 12-41 SU and 17-35-1 ATS run, Carolina simply can’t be trusted right now. In this situation facing an opponent that arrives off the comforts of a home game, the Panthers fall to a weak 5-23 SU and 6-21-1 ATS including a shocking 0-13 SU and ATS provided they are priced as an underdog of +4 or more. Please note: Those 13 losses came by an average of 16.9 points per game.
These are two teams headed in opposite directions. With a chance to take control of the division, the Falcons will make sure they drop the hammer here. Take Atlanta. Thanks and best of luck, Tom.
