Best Bet

Panthers +10.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

Most of the money has come for the Rams to score an easy win, but we’re banking on the Panthers to keep it close with the help of playing at home.

The Panthers are 5-3 at home, and the Rams are 5-4 on the road, which adds to our confidence, but the biggest betting guide is their previous meeting. The Panthers won 31-28 at Bank of America Stadium, so already owning a win over the Rams is excellent form.

We don’t think the Panthers are 10.5 points worse than the Rams at their best, and although Matthew Stafford is an MVP candidate, Carolina’s defence might stand up to the test.

Same Game Multi

Panthers +10.5, Matthew Stafford Under 262.5 Passing Yards, Puka Nacau Under 88.5 Receiving Yards, Under 46.5 Points @ $9.50

Bet Now

Our NFL predictions expect a low-scoring game, which could be decided in the fourth quarter. Therefore, we have Stafford and Puka Nacau struggling to produce big numbers.

Stafford’s line is 262.5 passing yards, which is a high number. He should sit around 240, in a game that could become more of a defensive struggle. He could struggle to link up with Puka Nacau, who gets most of his yards on one or two big passing plays.

Under 46.5 is included in our Rams vs. Panthers same game multi. Our final score prediction 23-20.

Best Value Bet

Chuba Hubbard @ $26.00

Bet Now

The odds for Chuba Hubbard to score the game’s first touchdown are too good to pass up.

The Panthers running back hasn’t been used as much recently, but he could add to his one touchdown this season in a surprise move.

He was their first choice RB to start the year, and playoff games often throw in surprises, and Hubbard being used close to the line could be what Carolina needs to produce the upset.
