Andy Dalton is an experienced back up quarterback who will probably have some success against the Seahawks this Sunday, as QB Bryce Young is doubtful this Sunday with an ankle issue. Seattle played an impressive game against the Lions last week, but can they replicate that effort two weeks in a row is the question. Their defense has holes as the Rams were able to put up points against them at home and they have serious injuries to deal with. Seattle are 5-12 ATS at home in the last two seasons so the Panthers have a chance to cover and win the game as they will be desperate not to go 0-3. With Dalton at the helm, the team will have some confidence going into this game as he has shown he is a reliable replacement, and Carolina beat Seattle last year in Seattle 30-24. Seattle off a road win are 1-6 ATS in the last three seasons.

Carolina are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games played in week 3. Seattle are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games. Seattle are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games at home. Seattle are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games against an opponent in the NFC conference. Seattle as a home favorite of 3.5 to 7 points is 1-7 ATS in the last three seasons.

Best bet: take the points with Carolina.
