Carolina Panthers versus Dallas Cowboys Final Betting Prediction

The line opened at Dallas -5 and is now Cowboys -4 ½, which tells us which way the public and pros are going. Make no mistake, Dallas is a good football team. 

But the Boys face a defense that could stifle Ezekiel Elliott and Dak Prescott. Carolina doesn’t let any team score a lot of points against them.

Almost as important is the fact Sam Darnold is playing smart football. The former Jets is completing 68% of his passes. He’s thrown for 888 yards and 3 TDs to a single pick. Sam has also rushed for 3 TDs.

Carolina’s biggest issue was at cornerback. But the Panthers solved that problem by trading for former Jaguar C.J. Henderson last week. 

All signs point to a Carolina Panther cover. If you want to take a bigger risk, back the Panthers on the moneyline.  

NFL Week 4 Pick: Carolina Panthers +4 ½
