Carolina Panthers @ Philadelphia Eagles (-3.5)
The Carolina Panthers will do things like need a 63-yard field goal to the lowly New York Giants. The next game, they lost to the Washington Redskins. This is the team’s third straight game against the Cam Newton-led Panthers.
The Eagles are coming off 10 days rest. They won big against their rivals on Thursday Night Football. This division is extremely tight between the Eagles, Cowboys and Redskins. The Eagles can’t really afford to lose this game.
That’s just slightly too many points. Sure, it’s a home game for the Eagles, but this Panthers team is alright.
Philadelphia 27, Carolina 24
Minnesota Vikings (-3) @ New York Jets
The Minnesota Vikings could be on the list of most disappointing teams in the league. Experts penned them in as the winners of the NFC North. They brought back a majority of their team, but they added Kirk Cousins at quarterback and Dalvin Cook returns from injury. It has never clicked.
Meanwhile, who knows what you are getting out of the New York Jets. They are on a two game winning streak, both coming at home. This is another home game, but this Vikings team has to shut the door on someone eventually.
Also, the Jets lost Quincey Enunwa for three weeks. He played really well with Sam Darnold. Losing him will not help, even if Terrelle Pryor plays well.
