Why The Panthers Could Cover The Spread

The Panthers snuck in their first win two weeks ago. Then, they fell back to Earth with a thud as a fairly mediocre Indianapolis team destroyed them at Bank of America Stadium.

Young is their quarterback, regardless of how much he struggles. Significantly, he has passed for 1,375 yards, eight touchdowns, and seven interceptions. Young has also rushed 69 times for 229 yards and one score. Meanwhile, Chubbard has rushed 85 times for 328 yards and one touchdown. Adam Thielen has caught 62 passes for 610 yards and four touchdowns. Ultimately, he might have to do more if D.J. Clark cannot suit up, as he has not practiced yet this week.

The defense has so many issues. Unfortunately, it could be worse if they do not have the services of Brian Burns, who is in the concussion protocol. The Panthers might have to make up for his absence. Therefore, look for Frankie Luvu to try to step up. Luvu has 35 solo tackles and 3.5 sacks.

The Panthers will cover the spread if Young can limit his mistakes. Then, they need their defense to stop a rushing attack that might get their best rusher back.

Why The Bears Could Cover The Spread

Justin Fields may play this week. Sadly, he has missed the last three games. But Fields has put in two limited practices this week. Therefore, there is optimism he will return. Fields has passed for 1,201 yards, 11 touchdowns, and six interceptions. Also, he has rushed 47 times for 237 yards and a touchdown. Foreman is their main running back, racking up 66 rushes for 287 yards and two touchdowns over five games. Additionally, they have a strong receiver they hope can do well this week. Moore has 47 receptions for 735 yards and five touchdowns. Meanwhile, Kmet has 41 catches for 374 yards and five touchdowns.

The defense has not been good at all this season. However, there are some bright spots. T.J. Edwards has 56 solo tackles and two sacks. Likewise, Yannick Ngakoue has tallied 10 solo tackles and two sacks. The Bears will need both men to have a great game against a rookie quarterback who has struggled yet can still make big plays with his arms and legs.

The Bears will cover the spread if Fields returns and can dominate with his arms and legs. Then, the defense must show up and stop Carolina's rushing attack.

Final Panthers-Bears Prediction & Pick

These teams are so evenly matched for all the wrong reasons. Thus, it will likely be a close game to the very end. The Bears destroyed the Washington Commanders on Thursday Night Football a few weeks ago. Ultimately, they have the potential to destroy Carolina. But keep an eye on Fields' health and see if he can play. Consequently, that will be a big factor.

Final Panthers-Bears Prediction & Pick: Carolina Panthers: +3.5 (-108)
