The Carolina Panthers and the New Orleans Saints open the NFL regular season Sunday at Caesars Superdome. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we look at Panthers vs. Saints odds from BetMGM Sportsbook before making our expert NFL picks and predictions later in the week.
Hope springs eternal in Charlotte, as the Panthers look to put an ugly 2-15 season in the rear-view mirror. Carolina wrapped up the 2023 campaign with a pair of shutout losses, while scoring 10 or fewer points in 4 of the final 5 outings.
Carolina moved back into the 1st round of the 2024 NFL Draft to nab South Carolina WR Xavier Legette to help QB Bryce Young . And, the Panthers added WR Diontae Johnson from the Pittsburgh Steelers, as the team looks to inject a little excitement into new coach Dave Canales’ offense.
The Saints posted a 9-8 record last season, but just missed out on the postseason. New Orleans finished up strong with 4 wins in the final 5 regular-season games, while going 4-1 against the spread (ATS) to finish things out.
Carolina was a dismal 0-9 on the road last season, while going 1-11 against NFC teams, and 1-5 inside the division.
New Orleans went a respectable 5-3 at home in 2023, while posting a 4-8 mark against the NFC, and 3-3 inside the division.
