Sportsbook Review’s veteran capper Swinging Johnson has a pair of bookie busting bets in his Week 4 NFL picks that are going to fatten your wallet and make your bookmaker beg for mercy. Let’s see what he’s got!

1:00 PM ET Panthers at Patriots (-9)

The Patriots have moved from eight to nine-point favorites in this one and we can see why. The long and short is that if you can’t score, you can’t win. The Panthers have had trouble putting points on the board through the first three weeks of the season, averaging just 15 PPG with injuries to boot. These Cats will be walking into the lion’s den when they stare across the field at one of the most prolific offenses in the league led by arguably the greatest quarterback in history.

Although New England has struggled defensively, they will undoubtedly get better as the season progresses as this unit was ranked tops in the league last season in points allowed. Carolina simply doesn’t have the horses to keep pace with the high-octane blitzkrieg coming their way on Sunday. Include the home chalk in your NFL picks in Week 4.

1:00 PM ET Rams (+6 ½) at Cowboys

If there is one major upset this Sunday it could likely come in this game as the Rams are simply getting too many points by the NFL odds makers and could easily win this game outright. LA is putting up a ton of points and lead the league in that category averaging almost 36 points per game. We don’t believe their defense is nearly as porous as they looked last week in their 41-39 win over San Francisco, considering they held the Colts to just nine points in the opening game of the season. Los Angeles’s defensive unit is somewhere between those two performances but their offense is truly the real deal.

Meanwhile, Dallas is in the middle of the pack averaging a click over 21 points per game and are working on a short week after their Monday night victory over Arizona. Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett is 0-5 ATS on the Sunday following a Monday night game as in this situation. The Rams however, have had 10 days to prepare after their Thursday night shootout with the 49’ers and will be ready to take on the Boys. Back the road dog here on your NFL picks.
