This is an 8* ART OF THE GAME on the Carolina Panthers.
We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.
This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant ATS statistics and common sense:
At note that Minnesota is just 2-4 ATS in its last six after holding its previous opponent to ten points or less, while Carolina is 4-2 ATS in its last six off a loss against a division rival (fell 31-21 at New Orleans last Sunday) and 9-3 ATS in its last 12 as an underdog (including 4-1 ATS this year.)
The bottom line: Minnesota is a fantastic team, but this is its third straight road game. The Vikes are poised for a letdown here in our opinion. The Panthers are sitting at 8-4, but can ill afford to fall another game back of division leader New Orleans, so look for the home side to put the foot on the gas from start to finish. While we obviously wouldn't be shocked by an outright upset, we will in the end recommend grabbing as many points as you can. Play on the PANTHERS.
