Dallas Cowboys vs. Carolina Panthers Prediction
I’m on the over in this one. Dallas continues to have one of the most electric offenses in the entire NFL, but a defense that can take their foot off of the gas at any time and also at times looks like they can’t even stop a nosebleed. I don’t know how many stops the Panthers get, but I’d be blind to not see that the Panthers have been far better at home so far this season. All in all, I have to roll with the over in this one as I’m expecting points once again.
