Will the New Orleans Saints Lose Against The Panthers?
Is this the week? Do the New Orleans Saints lose against the hapless Carolina Panthers?
The Saints remain undefeated while Carolina seems to be getting their act together, having won three of their last four. Two of those games were against the lowly Washington Redskins and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but last week's win was on the road against the defending NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals. Carolina stands to go .500 if they are to beat New Orleans.
And that is not entirely out of the equation.
New Orleans opened as a -14 home favorite. They moved down to -13 at Sportsbetting.com. New Orleans was getting just under 70 percent of the backing from sports bettors in this game.
But here is where things get worrisome for the Saints.
Carolina has won 7 of the last 10 in this series including 6 of the last 7. They were only blown out once (in 2007) by the Saints whereas the other two losses were within 3 points.
New Orleans is currently in the midst of both an 0-7 home slump SU and an 0-8 home losing streak ATS against the Panthers.
The Saints are also 3-10 ATS in its last 13 games when favored by more than 8-points.
