8* Sure Shot
(NFL) Carolina vs. Los Angeles,
Point Spread: -3.00 | -107.00 Carolina (Away)
Result: Push
Taking the PANTHERS here. I can't tell you how many times we have cashed the Rams as dogs over the last couple years. I can tell you about just as many times we faded a Panthers team to a win. Things are different for Carolina as they look far removed from a Super Bowl team of last year. I have to say though, something tells me that Cam Newton gets some calls this afternoon. He has been getting drilled and nary a flag. Now, I am not some pussifacation of the game guy. I think QBs should take their licks. And I also think that if they removed Cam from that Denver game, the same people complaining would have lost their minds. A starting QB removed with a minute to go driving for a GW score. Come on. Again, that being said here I think after meeting Goodall, he will get a benefit of a call or 2. Enough of my QB safety rant. The Rams. A picture of 8-8 or 7-9 every year, every team under Jeff Fisher. Guy will soon have the most losses of ANY NFL HC! Let's face the truth here. This Rams offense is brutal. They draft a QB and let him sit while they don't amass any wins. Carolina has a decent rush defense and Gurley hasn't impressed this season. Tough laying points with a fave that looks to be having a down year. But I feel there is too much pride here for them to slip up again on the road. 8* Sure Shot CAROLINA PANTHERS
