Panthers at Falcons

Kickoff: 1 p.m. Sunday, Mercedes-Benz Stadium

TV: Fox 5

Records: Panthers 5-5; Falcons 3-6

Line: Falcons -3.5

Outlook: The Falcons have lost four straight games, and their 30-0 loss to Carolina is one of the most puzzling results in the league this season. Though, the Panthers’ 17-7 loss to the New Orleans Saints last week ranks on that list too.

Follow along with the AJC’s D. Orlando Ledbetter and Rod Beard.
