This Sunday, the struggling Panthers offense faces the formidable Broncos defense, with Denver favored by nine points. Carolina is averaging just 15.7 points per game, making it hard to see them finding much success against this tough matchup. Expect a low-scoring affair, particularly for Carolina’s team total.

Panthers Vs Broncos Predictions
One of the league’s worst offenses faces off against one of the best defenses this Sunday afternoon—how will it play out? For me, it’s clear: this is an under game, specifically the Panthers’ team total under 16.5. I wish the number was at 17 for a bit more cushion, but the Broncos have held four out of seven opponents under this mark. Only the Seahawks, Raiders, and Chargers have exceeded 17 points against them, while the Steelers, Buccaneers, Jets, and Saints all fell short, with half of those teams scoring fewer than 10 points.
Carolina’s offense ranks 28th іn scoring, averaging just 15.7 points per game. Their highest output was іn Week 3 against the Raiders, when they scored 36 points іn their only win. Aside from that, they’ve been under 17 points іn four оf their seven games. The Panthers also rank 29th іn yards per game, averaging under 290 yards, while Denver ranks third іn yards allowed.
With the possibility of star cornerback Patrick Surtain returning from injury, Denver’s elite defense gets even stronger. Given this matchup, it’s hard to see the Panthers finding much success in Week 8. Their inconsistent offense is likely to stay under three scores, which should secure us a win.
Give me the Panthers’ team total under 16.5 at plus money!
