Model called it
The model favored CAR to win, and the call landed.
Carolina comes in here as the clear favorite with a 64% win probability, and the betting market is really backing that up. The Panthers have been sharper on defense lately, which is a big factor in this one, though Atlanta's shown some fight in their last five games that could keep it close. Vegas has them favored by two and a half, so don't expect a runaway here, but the model likes Carolina's chances to get the job done on the road.
