Here’s who they’re picking for this Week 14 matchup.

The Panthers and Broncos split three picks each at the MMQB.

Five out of seven experts at USA TODAY are picking Carolina this week.

CBS Sports: Broncos

Will Brinson has Denver winning, 21-17.

Pro Football Talk: Panthers

Mike Florio and Michael David Smith both picked the Panthers.

This is a tough game to call given how evenly matched these teams seem to be on paper. However, we think that homefield advantage and the extra week of rest should be enough to put Carolina over the top. Panthers 24, Broncos 21.

Panthers open 3.5-point favorites vs. Broncos for Week 14 game

The Carolina Panthers are back from their bye week and will be hosting the Denver Broncos on Sunday.

The Carolina Panthers are back from their bye week and will be hosting the Denver Broncos on Sunday. At 4-8, neither team is going to be in the playoffs this year, but there’s plenty of professional pride on the line.

The odds for this matchup were late coming out due to some uncertainty about Carolina’s roster with so many players on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Now they’re finally out and the Panthers are favored by 3.5 points according to the latest odds at BetMGM.

That sounds about right from where we’re sitting. Denver has an impressive defense but this is one of the few matchups this year where Carolina has a significant advantage at quarterback and overall their offense is far more potent. That plus home-field advantage and the extra week of rest should be enough to put them over the top.

The Broncos have dominated this series (they’re 5-1 all time against the Panthers) but we’d be surprised if they take this one.
