Well tonight we have the Fins at the Panthers.
so far we know that Ronnie Brown is out.
Stewart Doubtful
Both teams are 4-5 ATS
Miami on the road is 2-3 ATS
Panthers at home are 1-3 ATS
This year Miami is averaging 24.2 Points a game and the D has given up 25.2 points a game.In the last 3 games have averaged 24.0 a game while giving up 25 a game.
Panthers are averaging 19.6 a game and giving up 23.9 on D
The last 3 games they are averaging 27.3 and giving up 23.3
In the Panthers last 5 games (ATL, NO, ARI, BUF, TB) the total has been less then 42 ONE time.
Miami last 5 games (TB, NE, NYJ, NO, NYJ) NO game has been under 42
So we know both teams like to run. No suprise.
I think Miami will still be able to move the ball with Williams, and Pat Whites version of the wildcat.
Henne will do his dink and dunk thing
Carolina's run game is operating very well. DeAngelo has the ability to break one from anywhere and I think Steve Smith is starting to heat up.
I know both D's are good, but the numbers dont lie. They give up some points.
With both teams itching to stop the run we could see a few big plays coming out of the passing game here.
I think we can throw out Panthers Home PPG average since the last 3 games are the best games they have played with only 1 being at home (28-19 win over Atlanta)
Miami on the road averages 16.8 points.
Last 2 road games they put up 17 at NE and hung 30 on the Jets (2 special teams TD's)
This Miami team doesnt play very well on the road hence the 1-3 record.
I think Carolina is awkae now, and yes the O line injury will hurt but I think they will adjust with roll outs, short passes and screens to that side to slow the pass rush down.
In the end I think with the way miami plays on the road + Panthers D + Panthers run game will be too much for Miami to handle.
For some reason I like the OVER in this game
I know everyone is on the under.
So far I have played:
Panthers -2.5 (Hook)
Good Luck All.
