NFL Underdog Pick: Week 10
November 9th 2007

Atlanta Falcons (+4) at Carolina Panthers

DeAngelo Hall will not lose his cool this week and the Atlanta Falcons will prevail.  The Panthers did beat the Falcons in week 3 but the Panthers lost Jake Delhomme for the season and are still struggling to fill his shoes.  David Carr is actually ruled out for Week 10 and Matt Moore might get the start this week for the Panthers.  If this is the case, the Falcons defensive game plan has become very simple, just key on DeShaun Foster who had burned them for 2 td's in week 3.  I am very comfortable taking the 4 points and the Falcons this week. Joey Harrington had his best game of the year against the Panthers in week 3 throwing for 361 yards and 2 touchdowns.  Carolina is winless at home this year and are also 1-8 against the spread in their last 9 games on grass.
