Panthers Breakdown: Carolina won for the third time in its last four games last Sunday, scoring a 34-21 road win against the 
Arizona Cardinals. The Panthers looked like a blast from their recent past in the victory as they controlled the clock with a punishing ground game and their defense capitalized on opponent errors to put the offense in good field position. Carolina running backs DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart combined for 245 rush yards and two touchdowns while the defense forced six turnovers (five Kurt Warner interceptions).
The surprising result improved the Panthers record to 3-4 and brought them within a game of the second place Falcons in the NFC South.
Saints Breakdown: New Orleans continued to roll in week eight as they took out division rival Atlanta 35-27 at the Superdome on Monday night. The Saints dynamic offense piled up 23 first downs and 437 total yards, despite turning the ball over four times. Quarterback Drew Brees had another great outing, completing 25-of-33 passes for 308 yards and two touchdowns. New Orleans opportunistic defense was also on display again, as the unit picked off Matt Ryan three times and returned one errant pass for a second quarter touchdown. However, they did show some chinks in the armor as the Falcons racked up 442 yards, 161 of which came on the ground (6.7 yards per carry).
NFL Picks Betting Trend: Carolina is 8-2 against the spread and 7-3 straight up in their last 10 games at New Orleans.
