Carolina Panthers vs. New Orleans Saints Best Picks
Carolina has shown a bit of a fight lately and are not the pushovers that they were for a decent amount of the regular season. Andy Dalton is under center for the Saints' offense and has thrown three touchdown passes in his last five games. They are not going to get many passing touchdowns here. It feels like the sportsbooks are asking for way too much scoring here from New Orleans to end the season as players are trying to escape this game in good health. All in all, take less than three total touchdowns to be scored by the Saints.
New Orleans Saints Under 2.5 Total Touchdowns (-145)
Carolina Panthers vs. New Orleans Saints Prediction
The New Orleans Saints are the better team in this matchup and should be able to prove that here. When looking at the defensive side of the football in the last three games, Carolina has given up 25.7 points per game while the Saints have allowed an outstanding 12.7 points per game in that stretch. New Orleans is not going to allow themselves to be swept in the season series as Carolina won 22-14 back in Week 3. All in all, lay the field goal and take the New Orleans Saints in this game.
Prediction: New Orleans Saints -3 (-120)
