The Falcons are still alive in the 2024 postseason race, but it’s going to be an uphill climb after they fell 30-24 in overtime to the Commanders. With the Bucs thumping the Panthers 48-14, Tampa Bay now leads the division and are -1300 favorites to take home the divisional crown, per FanDuel Sportsbook.
Atlanta sits as +800 underdogs to win the NFC South.
With their loss to the Commanders, the Falcons are now 8-8 and no longer control their destiny in the division. If they hope to crack the playoffs, they must take care of business against the Panthers next week and pray the Saints can sink the Buccaneers.
