Giants vs. Panthers Free Pick
CHARLOTTE, NC (ATS Consultants) – Will the Panthers knock off the visiting Giants on their home turf tonight at 8:20PM ET? Will it be a shootout?

NFL FREE PICK: Take the over. According to latest NFL betting trends, Carolina is 7-0 OVER last 7 after allowing more than 350 total yards in their previous game. The Giants allowed Tampa Bay to throw for 243 yards and put up 34 points (41-34 win). They were also hurt by Eli Manning’s three interceptions but the Giants’ corners and injury issues have hurt them in the first two games. They face a Carolina team that has a great balance. They probably won’t rush for 219 yards as they did last week against the Saints, but Cam Newton can dice up the Giants’ secondary. He threw for 253 yards on 14 completions and led them in rushing with 71 yards. Steve Smith (3 for 104 yds) is still one of the best receivers in the game.
