Panthers open as 2.5-point underdogs to Giants in Week 2

What are the odds of New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones reeling in another long reception against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday? Well, since it was so painfully bizarre—particularly for the latter team—good luck finding a prop bet on that.

But we can tell you where to find the more conventional numbers.

For those, we look to Tipico Sportsbook—who opened up the 0-1 Panthers as 2.5-point underdogs to the 1-0 Giants ahead of their Week 2 matchup.

Carolina will enter MetLife Stadium on an eight-game losing streak—the longest active mark in the NFL. Their latest defeat came in the season opener, where the visiting Cleveland Browns thwarted a furious comeback effort from quarterback Baker Mayfield and the Panthers in a 26-24 nail-biter.

New York, on the other hand, got the luck of the leg. Whereas the Panthers were downed by the opposing kicker to end the game, the Giants grabbed a victory off a missed 47-yard field goal from the Tennessee Titans’ Randy Bullock as time expired.

This’ll be the second meeting in as many seasons for these two teams, with the Giants having topped the Panthers, 25-3, in their 2021 clash.
