Betting the Panthers: Week 8

Each week, I'll give a handful of prop bets or parlays pertaining to that week's Carolina Panthers game. I've already made my picks for the side and total for Carolina vs. Houston, which you can view below.

Spread & Over/Under Predictions for Panthers vs. Texans

Here are this week's prop bets and parlays (odds via FanDuel):

Anytime TD scorer: DJ Chark +380

The last two times DJ Chark played the Texans, he produced 10 receptions for 232 yards and two touchdowns. I know he hasn't seen them since 2021, but it's time for him to really come alive and be a big part of this passing game. Adam Thielen will draw a lot of attention, so there should be opportunities for Chark.

Bryce Young passing yards: Over 217.5

I understand why this number is low but in order for Carolina to win or have a chance of winning, they're going to have to sling it around a little bit. Plus, I'm sure the Panthers would like to make a statement in this game showing that they indeed picked the right quarterback for them and this system. Coming out of the bye week, I think this is Young's best showing yet.

Miles Sanders rushing yards: Under 34.5

Sanders will be back after missing the Miami game two weeks ago with a shoulder injury. However, Reich did state that this will be a run game by committee and they are really happy with how Chuba Hubbard has ran the ball this season. I expect Hubbard to get the hot hand and actually finish the game with more carries and yards. 34 yards for Sanders seems like a tall task at the moment.
