Giants Spotlight
New York continues their miserable season as they have lost 3 of their last 4 games where they are averaging 18 points per game. They are just 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games, while the under has hit in 9 of their last 13 games. They are sporting an offense at home that ranks 31st in points scored, 30th in rushing, and 30th in yards per play. Their defense hasn’t been too much better where they rank 30th in points allowed, 29th in rushing, and 26 in yards per play.
Panthers Spotlight
Carolina has been reeling themselves, losing 3 straight. Their once stout defense is giving up 30 points per game during that span. Carolina at least has an offense to lean on where their road offense ranks 10th in points per game, 8th in passing yards, and 13th in rushing yards. The offense has been good, but they’ve been plagued by turnovers where they have a -5 turnover differential in their last 3 games.
Final Say
When these two squads get together, the over has been money where it has hit in 6 of their last 8 meetings and 5 of their last 6 meetings in New York. Carolina’s defense is reeling, so New York could have a decent offensive outing. Meanwhile, Carolina has had one of the better offenses on the road, which shouldn’t have too much of a problem moving the ball against New York’s subpar defense. These guys have combined to average 49 points per game in their last 10 meetings, and 58 points per game in their last 3 meetings. Over the low total is the lean here.
Pick: Over 42.5 Total Points
