The dreadful NFL South will have the most compelling game of the day Sunday afternoon when the 6-8-1 Carolina Panthers travel to the Georgia Dome to take on the 6-9 Atlanta Falcons in a winner take all game for the division title. The Falcons expect to be pretty one-dimensional again on Sunday as Steven Jackson is expected to miss this game and the Falcons will rely on QB Matt Ryan to pass their way to the playoffs. The Panthers were basically left for dead, but they have strung together three straight wins headed into this big game with the Falcons. The Panthers do it with a dominant defense, allowing just 275 yards per game during their current winning run. The underdog is 4-1 ATS in these teams last five meetings and the Panthers are 4-1 against the number in their last five games. We don't LOVE either of these teams moving forward, but believe there is good value here with the road dog and we're going to back Cam Newton and the Panthers. The Sharps say...
3 UNITS - CAROLINA PANTHERS (+3)
