Carolina comes off a bye week after going OVER three of its first four games this season following its 31-21 win over Cincinnati. Christian McCaffrey racked up 184 yards on 28 carries and Cam Newton had a solid outing in completing 15-of-24 for 150 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions. Andy Dalton threw for 352 yards, but he was picked off four times while throwing two TD passes for the Bengals. The Panthers lead the NFL in rushing yards (166.0 per game) giving them a potent dual threat with McCaffrey's running and Newton's passing. New York allows 23.8 points per game and comes off a 33-18 loss to New Orleans with the Saints gaining 170 yards on the ground and Drew Brees went 18-of-32 for 217 yards and Alvin Kamara rushed for 134 yards against the porous Giants defense. Carolina has gone OVER five straight times when following a bye week and the Giants don't bounce back well defensively as they are 17-5 OVER their last 22 games after giving up at least 150 rushing yards their previous game. The Panthers are 8-3 OVER their last 11 games and 8-3 OVER following a win. Play the OVER.
