Carolina Panthers NFL Week 4 Betting Lines
The Carolina Panthers fell to 0-3 SU and 0-2-1 versus the NFL odds at the online sportsbook in Week 3 after coming up short against the Seattle Seahawks in their second road game of the 2023-24 NFL betting season. Frank Reich’s troops were frisky for a half, but much like the season opener in Atlanta, the Panthers ran out of steam in the second half and allowed their opponent to pull away for the win and cover at the online sportsbook. Something will have to give in this week’s showdown with the also winless Minnesota Vikings who certainly possess the offensive reinforcements to take advantage of a Panthers defense that was taken to task by the first passing attack it faced with a pulse last week. The wagering market isn’t bullish on Carolina getting into the win column in Week 4 because of it.

Carolina Panthers Week 4 Matchup
On Sunday, October 1, 2023, the Carolina Panthers will host the Minnesota Vikings from Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, NC. Kickoff time is set for 1 p.m. ET with television coverage on FOX. The lookahead betting lines for this NFC tilt opened with the Panthers taking back 2.5-points and the total lined 44.5. The NFL betting market has faded the Panthers with reckless abandon the first three weeks of the regular season. That once again looks to be the case per early week wagering reports with Carolina only taking in 20 percent of the bets and 41 percent of the money for this Week 4 tilt against the win-starved Vikings. Carolina has been competitive in its home digs where it’s split its last ten matchups and gone a moneymaking 5-4-1 against the NFL odds with the under cashing in six times. It’s been even better when catching points in front of the hometown faithful having produced 5-2 SU and 5-1-1 ATS marks dating back to last season after pushing against the Saints in its home opener back in Week 2. Though the under cashed at a 5-2 clip with an average of 40.3 points scored in those contests, total bettors have ransacked the over forcing linemakers to push the number to beat up to 46. The recent total trend between these teams has been of the higher scoring variety with the over cashing at a 5-1 clip in the last six meetings dating back to 2013. Having said that, the Panthers offense only exceeded their team total once to date and that was with Andy Dalton holding the reins. It’s possible Bryce Young returns to the huddle this week so make it a point to check injury reports leading up to kick-off to confirm as to whether it’s the “Red Rocket” or rookie navigating the attack.
Carolina Panthers Week 3 Recap
The Panthers took a step closer towards cashing under tickets for season win total bettors in Week 3 after dropping a 37-27 decision to the Seattle Seahawks. The 10 point margin of victory saw them fail to cover the closing 4.5-point NFL odds dropping them to 0-3 SU and 0-2-1 ATS for the season. While the offense was much more potent with the veteran under center this past Sunday, the end result proved to be one in the same. The loss proved to be a tough one for the online sportsbook after the Panthers only garnered 32 percent of the bets and 47 percent of the money leading up to kick-off. Linemakers also took a beating on the total after the 64 combined points shattered the 43-point closing total forcing payouts to the 80+ percent of the money that banked on a high scorer playing out in the Pacific Northwest. It’s been a wretched start to the season for the Panthers who rank amongst the bottom third of the league in the most pertinent of stat categories on both sides of the ball. The end result came as quite the disappointment after taking a 13-12 lead into the break. Following the intermission, Seattle was able to proclaim its dominance both on the ground by unleashing Kenneth Walker III and Smith through the air with Carolina’s depleted secondary having no answer for D.K. Metcalf who torched Ejiro Evero’s defense for 112 yards on six receptions. There isn’t much to build on in Carolina right now.
