New York Jets vs. Carolina Panthers Betting Preview
Jets’ Quick Start, Tough Finish
The New York Jets got off to a quick start in the Hall of Fame Game but were unable to keep the lead; they lost 21-16 to the Browns. Isreal Abanikanda got a bunch of carries early in the game and scampered into the end zone for New York. The Jets used him to get opportunities, with Breece Hall, Michael Carter, and Zonovan Knights all sitting the game.
Zach Wilson and Tim Boyle shared quarterback opportunities, but their NLF MVP odds are not strong. Wilson played the first quarter and was fine. He will get some more chances in this game. The big news for the Jets is the addition of Aaron Rodgers to the roster. The 39-year-old brings excitement to the team and an opportunity to compete in the tough AFC East.
The New York Jets players get four preseason games, with the Hall of Fame game being a bonus. Following this one, they will host Tampa Bay and play on the road at the New York Giants. The regular season NFL schedule for the Jets on Monday Night Football. The Jets will host the divisional favorite Buffalo Bills on September 11th and hope to get an advantage in the NFL playoff bracket.
Unveiling the Panther’s Blueprint
Looking at the recent NFL team stats, the Carolina Panthers certainly have a new look. Carolina Panthers games will be fun after they took Bryce Young as the first overall pick in the draft and will plan to use him.
There was talk about Young playing in this game, but it’s uncertain of his status. Their second pick was Jonathan Mingo, who Young will want to use to get the ball downfield. Mingo played his College Football at Ole Miss.
The experience with Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold, P.J. Walker, and Jacob Eason all getting chances a season ago did not go well. Looking at the NFL player stats, the team ended with 16 touchdowns and 13 interceptions. Gone is top receiver DJ Moore as well. Backing up the rookie Young will be Andy Dalton, Jake Luton, and Matt Corral. Look for them to get chances in this one.
Primetime Spectacle
In came Miles Sanders and Adam Thielen. Sanders should get the running back duty in front of Chuba Hubbard, while Thielen will go along with DJ Chark and Terrance Marshall. Laviska Shenault, Shi Smith, and Damiere Byrd are guys that will get chances in this one.
The Panthers have games at the Giants and home against the Lions left in preseason play before starting the season with back-to-back divisional games. The first is in Atlanta against the Falcons, while the second is Monday Night Football at home against the Saints.
New York Jets vs. Carolina Panthers Betting Picks
Look for a fun one of the NFL Matchups. Anytime you get professional athletes together, it’s going to be interesting to see how it plays out.
In the end, though, the Jets’ progression this offseason is a little accelerated as opposed to the Panthers. Look for the Jets to be able to move the ball better than they did in Week 1.
- The Jets are underdogs, but that’s who we are picking. Barring any late additions to the NFL injury report, the best bet is to take the New York Jets +3.5 over the Carolina Panthers in this one.
