Panthers-Lions Betting Analysis

Panthers quarterback Cam Newton looks like his old self, having passed for 316 yards and three touchdowns while running for 44 yards and another score in Carolina's 33-30 road victory over New England.

The Panthers (3-1) managed to collect two wins while scoring a combined 45 points in their first three games.

There have been distractions off the field following that win against New England as Newton came under fire for an insensitive comment made to a female reporter.

"It's funny to hear a female talk about routes like ... it's funny."

He lost an endorsement deal with Dannon Oikos Yogurt as a result and we will have to see how any of this impacts Newton negatively.

Meanwhile, Detroit starting quarterback Matthew Stafford is off to a strong start as well, throwing seven touchdown passes and just one interception and helping guide his team to a 3-1 record.

Detroit (3-1) is a half-yard shy of being the only undefeated team in the NFC.

Turnovers have been a major factor in Detroit's quick start. It leads the league with a plus-9 in that category. The Lions' 11 takeaways are tied for the league lead.

Both teams are tied for fourth in fewest points allowed at 17.5 per game.  The total for this game was coming in at 42.5, one of the lowest numbers this week.
