New Orleans Saints at Carolina Panthers +7 (8:15pm ET)

 

The Carolina Panthers host the New Orleans Saints tonight in a must win spot for the Panthers. Sitting at (6-7), the Panthers need to win to have a chance at the Wild Card, sitting behind the Seahawks at (8-6) and the Vikings at (7-6-1). This is the first head to head match up of the season between the two divisional opponents and they will square off again in week 17.

The Panthers have been lead by RB Christian McCaffery, who has 926 rushes on 176 carries and 7 TDs, is keeping the Panthers playoff hopes alive. Cam Newton will need a strong outing at home if they want to keep up with the high powered offense of the Saints. Drew Brees is having another MVP like season, with  31 TDs and only 4 INTs, totaling 3483 yards. Players such as Kamara, Thomas & Ingram have also of course contributed to the Saint’s offense success.

BETTING THE THURSDAY NIGHT GAME

Vegas has set the line right at 7 points for the Saints, meaning they are expected to win by 7 points on the road. The over/under in the game is currently at 50 points (scored by both teams). Let’s take a look at some of the previous trends coming into this one.

Saints-

  • 2-5 ATS in their last 7 Monday games.
  • 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road games
  • 20-6 ATS in their last 26 road games

 

Panthers-

  • 8-3 ATS in their last 11 home games.
  • 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as a home underdog.
  • 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games overall..

ATS stands for against the spread.

WHO TO PICK?

Panther desperately need a win and lucked out that they are the home team in this spot, or I would not give them a shot. The Panthers have been hot on offense and these two teams know each other well. I like the Panthers to cover this spread and the Saints still to win this game outright. It will be close but the Saints will prevail in the end. I lean over in this game, so if you are looking to play a total, go with the over. Pick-Panthers +7
