Pick

I’m sticking with Milwaukee in this one. Not a game I’m rushing to bet, but the Panthers are the better team and should be eager to shake off their terrible loss to Green Bay in their last game. Detroit’s done a lot of their best work at home, but the defense can be an issue for the Titans on the road and I just see Milwaukee progressively pulling away over the course of the second half. Give me the Panthers laying the points here.
