Gambling911.com resident bookmaker expert Tony Caliente breaks down the all-important Panthers-Falcons Week 17 game to determine if the line on this one is accurate.

Carolina is already in the post season but do have an opportunity to improve their chances while Atlanta is in with a win. Seattle losing at home to Arizona also gets the Falcons into the Playoffs.

The books had done little to encourage more action on the Falcons, though by Sunday morning a few had moved the number to -3.5 (quite a few up to -4 this hour) and that's driven action on Carolina down to 70% from 85% overnight.

The NFL Betting Power Ratings indicate the line should only be Atlanta -1.5 here, maybe -2.
