Carolina Panthers at New Orleans Saints odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Carolina Panthers at New Orleans Saints odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Carolina Panthers (6-10) finish their season against the New Orleans Saints (7-9) in the Caesars Superdome Sunday at 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Panthers vs. Saints odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The 2022 season was not kind to the Panthers and Saints. Both came in with postseason aspirations — or at the very least finishing better than .500 — but they find themselves out of the playoff picture when they take the field Sunday.

The NFC South rivals faced off in Week 3 with the Panthers, as 9.5-point home underdogs, upsetting the Saints 22-14. QB Baker Mayfield (now with the Rams) and RB Christian McCaffrey (now with 49ers) started for Carolina, while QB Jameis Winston (season-ending injury) and WR Michael Thomas (on injured reserve) started for New Orleans. They won’t be involved Sunday, so little can be taken from that 1st game to analyze this one.

Both teams are eliminated and will end with losing records. The Panthers controlled their destiny entering Week 17 but lost as 3.5-point road underdogs to Tampa Bay 30-24. The Saints surprisingly upset a Jalen Hurt-less Eagles 20-10 last week — New Orleans was a 5.5-point road dog.

Panthers at Saints picks and predictions

Prediction

Saints 17, Panthers 16

Moneyline

Despite their record, the Saints are pretty good against the pass. They are 3rd in passing yards allowed per game (193.9) and 4th in opponent yards per pass (6.0).

The run game is a different story. After the Panthers put up 320 rushing yards against the Lions in Week 16, they could harass a New Orleans team that’s 23rd in yards per rush (4.5). The moneyline odds should be AVOIDED but you may consider a rushing prop.

Against the spread

The Saints are 1-5 against the spread in their past 6 games when their defense holds opponents to 90 rushing yards or less in their previous game.

On top of that, the Panthers have covered in 7 of their last 8 games after hitting more than 350 total yards in their last game.

BET PANTHERS +3.5 (-115).

Over/Under

Both teams lean toward the Under. The Panthers hit the Under is 5 of their last 7 games after an ATS loss.

For the Saints, the Under is 5-0 in their last 5 games and they’ve posted 4 straight Unders following an ATS win.

LEAN UNDER 41.5 (-109).

Carolina Panthers at New Orleans Saints odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Sunday’s Carolina Panthers at New Orleans Saints Week 17 odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Carolina Panthers (5-10) visit the New Orleans Saints (7-8) Sunday for a Week 17 tilt at Caesars Superdome. Kickoff is scheduled for 4:25 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Panthers vs. Saints odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

The Panthers have been horrible lately, hitting rock bottom in a 32-6 home loss against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week. The Panthers are 0-5 straight up and 0-5 against the spread in the past five games since a stunning 34-10 upset win at Arizona in Week 10.

Head coach Matt Rhule announced earlier this week that QB Sam Darnold will start, benching fan favorite QB Cam Newton.

The Saints were dropped 20-3 at home against the Miami Dolphins Monday night. Third-string QB Ian Book started, making is NFL debut, as starting QB Taysom Hill and backup Trevor Siemian were unavailable. Hill has since been activated from the COVID-19 list, so the book is closed on the Notre Dame rookie quarterback for now.

Panthers at Saints odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Saints 20, Panthers 12

Money line

The Saints (-300) will cost you three times your potential return, but that’s risky business, even against the struggling Panthers.

PASS and look to the spread instead.

Against the spread

The SAINTS -6.5 (-110) are a better play laying the points. Carolina gives Darnold a start to see what he can do, and it likely won’t be much against a strong New Orleans defense.

The Saints have yielded just 22 offensive points across the past three outings. This play doesn’t come without risk, however, as the offense has managed just 12 total points in the previous two games.

Over/Under

The UNDER 37.5 (-108) is the play even though this line is super low. The Under has connected in five straight games for the Saints. The Under also hit in the first meeting between these NFC South rivals in Week 2, a 26-7 win by Carolina which seems like a lifetime ago.

Underdog corner: 3 best NFL picks and predictions for Week 2

Assessing the NFL betting odds and lines for Week 2, with three predictions and picks for the best underdog bets to make.

NFL point-spread underdogs certainly had their day in Week 1 and a record one at that, covering in 12 of 16 games with an amazing nine outright winners. We took full advantage here in underdog corner as all three of our selections (the Philadelphia Eagles, Houston Texans and Miami Dolphins, who were all getting 3.5 points) notched straight-up wins, including two by double digits.

Certainly, a week to rejoice, but we know it’s not going to be that fruitful every week. We are wagering on the NFL (Not For Long) after all. Below, we assess the odds and matchups and offer up our three best NFL underdog picks and predictions for Week 2.

NFL underdog predictions: Week 2

Odds provided by Tipico Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Wednesday at 6 p.m. ET.

Carolina Panthers +3.5 (-112) vs. New Orleans Saints, Sunday at 1 p.m. ET

The Saints surprised many by notching one of the most shocking wins of Week 1, routing reigning MVP QB Aaron Rodgers and the favored Green Bay Packers 38-3 in a neutral-site game in Jacksonville.

The win, though, came with a cost as three starters — CB Marshon Lattimore, DE Marcus Davenport and C Erik McCoy — went down and will miss time due to injuries.

Also, a mini-COVID-19 outbreak has since struck the organization with six assistant coaches among eight in all testing positive so far. In addition to the inconvenience of practicing and staying in the Dallas area after being displaced by Hurricane Ida, the Saints now will be operating under the league’s enhanced COVID mitigation protocols this week.

The Panthers, meanwhile, have no such distractions playing at home for the second straight week after opening with a 19-14 win over the New York Jets. Carolina also covered in five of its last seven games against the Saints as an underdog, and given all the above, we’ll say that grows to six of eight with an outright PANTHERS (+3.5, +155 ML) win Sunday.

Minnesota Vikings +3.5 (-107) at Arizona Cardinals, Sunday at 4:05 p.m. ET

QB Kyler Murray and the Cards also pulled off a Week 1 stunner, routing the field goal-favorite Tennessee Titans 38-13 on the road.

The Vikings didn’t fare nearly as well in their season opener in Cincinnati, falling 27-24 on the last play of overtime.

We see things evening out, though, Sunday afternoon in the desert as these still look to be two equally-matched teams. Take the VIKINGS (+3.5).

Dallas Cowboys +3.5 (-122) at Los Angeles Chargers, Sunday at 4:25 p.m. ET

This will be the Bolts’ home opener — and their first game at SoFi Stadium with fans; however, given the Chargers’ lack of serious L.A. backing, that only means the sparkling new stadium will mainly be filled with Cowboys fanatics.

On the field, second-year Chargers QB Justin Herbert certainly looks to be the real deal but QB Dak Prescott and the Cowboys should’ve beaten the defending-champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers, losing 31-29 late in the league’s season opener.

Dallas is still getting more than a field goal against a lesser foe, so get down on the COWBOYS (+3.5).

Panthers at Saints game notes

The Chicago Bears cooled off the Panthers last week at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, winning 23-16 to snap Carolina’s three-game win and cover streak. The Panthers’ 16 points marked a season low for offensive production, too.
The Panthers hit the Under for the fourth consecutive week in the loss to the bears, and they’re allowing just 19.0 PPG across the past four after yielding 32.5 PPG in the first two outings.
New Orleans is coming off its bye. Before the rest, they had won a pair of games, including a 30-27 overtime win over the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 5.
The Saints have been the opposite of the Panthers, hitting the Over in each of their five outings this season. New Orleans has scored at least 24 points in every game, and at least 30 points in four contests.
Defense isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when discussing the Saints, but they rank a solid eighth in total yards allowed (337.4) and sixth in rushing yards allowed (100.2) per game.

Panthers at Saints: Odds, prediction, betting lines and picks

Prediction

Saints 31, Panthers 27

Money line (?)

The Saints (-345) are expected to win this game, but it will be a lot closer than most people are thinking. Risking more than three times your potential return in a divisional game is not wise gambling. AVOID.

Against the spread (?)

The PANTHERS +7 (-110) are a strong play in this divisional road game. The road team has cashed in 27 of the previous 38 in this series, and Carolina plays particularly well in the Crescent City. The Panthers are 15-5 ATS in their past 20 trips to the Big Easy, with the underdog hitting in 10 of the past 12 in the series.

Over/Under (?)

The OVER 49.5 (-115) is a sound wager despite Carolina trending to the Under lately. In fact, the Over has cashed in each of the past seven meetings in New Orleans, and six of the previous seven in this series overall. New Orleans is the only team in the NFL to hit the Over in each of its games without any Under results or pushes, and that streak will continue at least one more week.
