Panthers open 2.5-point underdogs vs. Falcons for Week 5 matchup

According to the latest odds at BetMGM, the Panthers are 2.5-point underdogs for Sunday’s game against the Falcons.

These Panthers can’t seem to get any respect from the gambling community. So far this season, the odds have been against them in every single game. Even after two straight upset wins, that’s the case again this week. According to the latest odds at BetMGM, the Panthers are 2.5-point underdogs for Sunday’s game against the Falcons.

Atlanta comes into Week 5 in a tailspin. They are 0-4 on the season and there’s open speculation that coach Dan Quinn could be fired soon. Only the Cowboys have allowed more points per game this season and the team is riddled by injuries on both sides of the ball. Their entire secondary is decimated and both Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley were clearly not 100% in their Monday night loss to the Packers.

Then again, they have had their way with Carolina of late. The Falcons have won five in a row and eight of the last nine matchups between these teams.
