New Orleans Saints vs Carolina Panthers Betting Preview

Derek Carr and the New Orleans Saints faceoff against Andy Dalton and the Carolina Panthers. The Saints enter the game as a huge favorite (-305) despite being on the road. New Orleans is currently favored by -7.0 points while the Game Total is currently sitting on 43.5.

Carolina's primary disadvantage has been their defense, which has allowed a monstrous 428 yards per game this year, sliding them into the #1 spot among the league's worst. Much of their struggle has come in trying to shut down the run game, as they've allowed opposing ball-carriers to rush for the #3-most yards per carry: 5.37. That kind of ineffectiveness has also leached over to their pass defense, which has landed them in the #31 spot in terms of yards per target (8.84). Panthers defensive ends are perhaps most responsible for their dismal run defense this year, given that they grade out as the #2-worst unit in the NFL. This presents a decided disadvantage for Carolina given that the Saints ground game has been so good this year, rushing for 3.97 yards per carry (#21-best in the league). When it comes to their offense, the Panthers check in at #25 in football when it comes to total yards per game. Their passing game has compiled 166 yards per game (#28 in football). Their run game has ranked #10 with 4.63 yards per attempt on the ground.

New Orleans's biggest weakness has been their defense, ranking #29 in the league while allowing 398 yards per game. Much of their struggle has come in trying to shut down the run game, as they've allowed opposing ball-carriers to rush for the #2-most yards per carry: 5.53. That's not to give any unnecessary credit to their pass defense, though, which checks in at #9-worst in yards per target (7.94). The Saints defensive tackles have played a big part in their inability to stop the run, ranking #2-worst in the NFL by this measure. This represents a particular disadvantage for New Orleans given that the Panthers have excelled in the run game this year, accumulating 4.63 yards per carry (#10-best in the league). In terms of their offense, the Saints have ranked #27 in the league in total yards per game. They've passed for 170 yards per game (#27 in football). On the ground they've ranked #21 with 3.97 yards per carry.
