After Carolina lost in embarrassing fashion to the Saints last week, it pretty much became a foregone conclusion that the Panthers don’t have a shot at getting a win against the Patriots this week. The odds were long before the loss to the Saints given New England’s impressive track record in Foxboro over Tom Brady’s career. The Patriots, however, haven’t just dominated their opponents this year. Both teams are 2-1 and, while New England did blowout the Saints, they lost their home opener to the Chiefs and barely squeaked out a win over the Texans last week. Carolina are +9 road dogs and New England is 19-1 in covering the spread when it is favored by 9 points or more.
