MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL SELECTION
3-Unit Play. Take 'Over' 46.0 - New England at Carolina (8:40 p.m., Monday, Nov. 18)
1-Unit Play. Take #429 New England (+2.5) over Carolina (8:40 p.m., Monday, Nov. 18)
I know that Carolina's defense is one of the best in football. But do you really think that they are
going to stop Tom Brady - fresh off a bye? I don't. At the same token, I think that Carolina's
offense is due for a bit of a breakout after getting held up in San Francisco last week. And the
Patriots defense has problems, serious, serious problems. So if the Panthers can't get 20 points in
this one I don't know what to tell them. This game will definitely be played in the 20's and this
one is going 'over'. The more I think about this play the more I like it.

2 Unit Play. #128/#430 Take Carolina Panthers -2.5 over New England Patriots (Monday 8:40
pm ESPN) The Panthers are in beast mode at the moment, having won having won 5 straight
games, and 4 of those games have been blowouts. The fan base in Carolina will be sky high for
this game since they do not get many primetime games with a national audience. Carolina is
allowing just 9 points per game in Charlotte and just 249 total yards in their last 7 games. Cam
Newton will have an easier time this week moving the football on offense against a suspect
Patriots defense. New England is just 1-5 ATS in their last 6 road games. Carolina is 5-1 ATS in
their last 6 home games. Take the home chalk on Monday night.
From This Week's PLATINUM SHEET
STATFOX FORECASTER
NEW ENGLAND (429) AT CAROLINA (430)
Latest Line: Carolina -3.0; Total: 47.0
The Patriots come out of a bye week to face the Panthers, the hottest team in the NFL, on Monday night. New England finally got its struggling offense into gear with 610 total yards in a 55-21 drubbing of the Steelers on Nov. 3. Carolina has won five in row (SU and ATS) thanks to its stingy defense, allowing 15 points or less in each of the five victories, including a 10-9 upset win at San Francisco last week. New England could get both RB Shane Vereen (wrist) and top CB Aqib Talib (hip) back on the field for this matchup. The Patriots hold a 3-2 SU advantage, but the Panthers are 4-1 ATS in this all-time series.
