Packers vs Panthers Prediction

I don’t love the hook on top of a key number, but I’m still siding with the Packers at home. I still have yet to buy into the Panthers, and their effort last week against the Bucs is concerning. The Packers are playing their best ball of the season with wins in three of their last four games, and they beat the Lions last week if their receivers could catch.

I know the Packers can’t run the football and are historically bad, but the Panthers are 32nd in rush defense. If there was ever a game the Packers could have a balanced offense, it’s here. I’m going to side with the Packers by a touchdown on Thursday night.
