are bad. The Atlanta Falcons (-3) are ... weird. Both teams are coming off of losses on Sunday — The Panthers fresh off a throttling by the Bengals, and the Falcons reeling from a game they gave away against the Chargers.
These two bad-weird teams will meet for Thursday Night Football — the Falcons' first primetime affair of the season — where DraftKings Sportsbook has Atlanta as 2.5-point favorites in the opening odds.
This is just the second time the Falcons have entered a contest as favorites all year.
