Blowout Total NFL 8*
(NFL) Carolina vs. NY Giants,

Result: Loss
#403/404 ASA PLAY ON 8* Under 39 Points – Carolina Panthers vs NY Giants, Friday at 7 PM ET - These 2 offenses each had brutal games last week and we don’t anticipate a big turnaround on that site of the ball this week. Carolina was held scoreless vs the Jets and tallied only 165 total yards on 3.4 YPP. The only time the Panthers crossed midfield was their final 2 possessions of the game and they never pushed inside the Jets 30 yard line. The Jets defensive front put lots of pressure on Carolina’s inexperienced QB’s and we expect the same this week vs the Giants and DC Martindale’s blitz happy defense. The Panther offensive line was shaky, thus the pressure allowed, and head coach Frank Reich plans on rotating a number of players this week to see what they can do. Back up QB Andy Dalton is injured and will not play so Carolina will again rely on very inexperienced QB’s in rookie Bryce Young and 2nd year player Matt Corral (0 career pass attempts). The Giants offense wasn’t much better last week. They scored only 16 points vs a Detroit defense that finished dead last in YPG and YPP allowed last season. NYG had just 216 total yards on 3.9 YPP in the game. They relied heavily on undrafted rookie Tommy DeVito at QB and he’ll probably get decent time again this week. Starting QB Jones did not play and may not again on Friday. If he does, it won’t be for more than a series or two. Both defenses played well last week with the Giants holding a very good Detroit offense to 4.7 YPP while Carolina also kept the Jets under 5.0 YPP. We anticipate a low scoring game on Friday night and Under is our lean.
