Panthers at Commanders picks and predictions
Prediction
The Commanders (-500) will cost you 5 times your potential return, and that’s a little too much risk for not nearly enough reward. Washington should be able to get the job done against the lowly Panthers (+375), but even as part of a multi-leg parlay, including the Commanders sucks all of the value out of your ticket.
PASS .
The
COMMANDERS -9.5 (
-110 ) are laying a big number, and with their defense, it isn’t a sure thing. However, the Panthers +9.5 (-110) have a pretty shabby defense, too, and QB
Jayden Daniels should find plenty of open spaces. Carolina is just 1-5 ATS this season, including 3 consecutive non-covers with losses by 10 or more points. And, Carolina has lost by 10 or more points in 5 of 6 outings this season.
OVER 51.5 (
-110 ) might be the best play on the board. While the Over was 0-3 in games with a closing total of 50 or more points in the 1st 5 weeks, we saw the Over go 2-0 in 2 such games in Week 6. The Over has cashed in 4 straight games, while going 5-1 this season, for Carolina. The Panthers have allowed 34 or more points in 3 in a row, and 4 of 6 outings. For the Commanders, the Over has hit in 4 in a row, too, while going 5-1 in the 6 games this season. The Commanders have allowed 30 or more points 3 times, while going for 34 or more points in 3 of the past 4 outings on offense.
