Carolina Panthers 9.5-point dogs at Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 2

The Carolina Panthers enter Week 2 as underdogs vs Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The new-look Tampa Bay Buccaneers (0-1) host a new version of the Carolina Panthers (0-1) for their Week 2 home opener in Raymond James Stadium Sunday at 1 p.m. ET. Below, we take a look at the early Week 2 betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.

Tompa Bay stumbled out the gate—losing 34-23 at the New Orleans Saints in Week 1—with Tom Brady’s two interceptions and abysmal 34.5 QBR. The Panthers dropped a back-and-forth game to the Las Vegas Raiders 34-30, despite 134 all-purpose yards and two TDs from newly minted RB Christian McCaffery.
