Atlanta Falcons Odds to Win Super Bowl LIV

In the midst of a lost season, the Atlanta Falcons at least had something to celebrate last week when they went on the road and knocked off the New Orleans Saints. Atlanta still only has two victories on the season but will aim to put together a modest winning streak for the first time this year when they face off against the Carolina Panthers in Week 11. Atlanta is on the road again and will be the underdog in this matchup, but if the defense steps up again the Falcons could make this one competitive.

Week 11 Preview

These two teams are NFC South foes and thus are very familiar with each other. The Falcons will roll out Matt Ryan at quarterback like they have against Carolina for the past several years, but it will be a new face on the other side. Cam Newton is on injured reserve with a foot injury so the Panthers have turned to youngster Kyle Allen to lead the way at quarterback.

Allen has done really well considering he was an undrafted free agent, as the Panthers have remained in the playoff hunt without their star signal-caller. Allen has thrown for 1,598 yards with 10 touchdowns and five interceptions on the season. Carolina has done a nice job of keeping the pressure off him as it has a dynamic running back in Christian McCaffrey as well as a solid defense.

The Falcons will need to contain McCaffrey, and that could be a tough task considering how much they have struggled on defense this season. Even though Allen has found success at times, Atlanta would love to make him win this game with his arm.

The Panthers defense has been up and down this season and will get a tough test against Ryan and the explosive Falcons offense. Ryan has thrown for 2,352 yards with 17 touchdowns and nine interceptions. Per usual, Julio Jones is his main target. Jones has 53 catches for 791 yards and four scores this season and could be in for a big day against a Panthers team that likes to play a lot of zone coverage.

The Falcons could be without running back Devonta Freeman due to injury, although he hasn’t been very effective this season anyway.

Week 10 Recap

The Falcons were double-digit underdogs last time out against the Saints but came away with a shocking 26-9 victory. The Atlanta defense has been among the worst in the NFL this year but was fantastic against high-powered New Orleans, holding it to only 310 yards of total offense.

Saints quarterback Drew Brees was just 32-of-45 for 287 yards without a touchdown and star running back Alvin Kamara carried the ball four times for only 24 yards. It was wild to see the Falcons defense play so well after weeks of struggles, and they hope to have found the right combination moving forward.

The Falcons scored 13 points in the fourth quarter of the contest to pull away. Ryan finished 20-of-35 passing for 182 yards and two touchdowns as Atlanta finally lived up to expectations after a year full of disappointment.

At 2-7, the playoffs are out of reach for Atlanta, but this team is trying to get back on track to save coach Dan Quinn’s job and to keep the core together. This next game against the Panthers is not an easy one, as it is on the road against a quality foe. However, the Falcons have always had talent and severely underperformed in the first half of the year.

Atlanta is likely to keep this one close and it could come down to the wire. The Panthers need the victory to keep pace in the playoff hunt but the Falcons would love to play spoiler and pick up another win.
