Carolina Panthers vs Tamp Bucs
Things that stick out:
1. Division Game dog getting points at home. Why? Cam Newton. Thats the first name out of anyones mouth when you mention this game. The Panthers were a covering machine last year. Books adjust and understand this. If you ask ten friends who will win of course Cam Newton's Panthers. Panthes were terrible on D last year. They drafted 5 of 7 picks on defense and spec teams. Takes longer for D to jell than O. 1 missed coverage on D equal TD. At the end of the year last year Cam threw for 200 5 of the last 6 games. Year full of tape. Yeah might be some regression.Both teams were terrible on defense. Ranking 24 or below in almost all defensive categories.
My brain says shootout with two lack luster defenses trying to figure it out. Over 46.5 is the safe play now.
If I could get Bucs at +3, I would jump on it now. Its juiced at most places I look. ML worth a look as well. Wrong team could be favored. Bucs won 4 games Carolina 6 games. Lot of inflated lines Cam Newton was unknown
Tell me something besides Cam Newton.
