Both teams come in off wins in their Week One matches. For Buffalo, it was an ugly nine-point win at home against AFC East rival the New York Jets. The Bills would win by virtue of New York miscues more than by their own volition. The Jets offense is a black hole and Buffalo still could not win the clash by a convincing margin. Carolina comes in off a quick and dominant win at the San Francisco 49ers. Cam Newton would appear to be back on top of his game as he torched the Niners in a 23-3 pummeling. Carolina’s defense seemed to be back in peak form against the maligned NFC West football team.

Buffalo Bills at Carolina Panthers Week 2 Prediction
Buffalo may seem to have value given the fact they were spotting lumber a week ago. However, if the price seems deceptively good it usually is. The early numbers in this market were designed to cultivate action on the underdog and much of the betting public has followed suit. The scenario creates a great fade opportunity at home with the Panthers. We will go the other way and not bite the hook cast out. Carolina is known for a robust home field advantage and they have entered this season with a chip on its shoulder. In 2016, Carolina failed to make it to the playoffs after it had made a Super Bowl appearance in the year prior. However, Josh Norman would leave town and Cam Newton would get injured. The rest is history. Now, Carolina comes back into the fold looking to get back to the post-season. The Panthers will make an example out of the Bills to showcase to the rest of league and country, the Cats are back. Laying chalk can be a risky proposition but in this case swallowing the points is certainly worth it.
