Cam Newton – Carolina Panthers QB
- Over 18.5 completions at -125
There is a growing sense of optimism surrounding the Carolina Panthers. That has everything to do with Cam Newton‘s shock return and the way he’s performed over the first two games.
Although it didn’t come with a victory in Week 11 against his former head coach Ron Rivera, Newton performed incredibly well considering his lack of activity in 2021 and the fact he’s still learning Joe Brady’s system.
The former NFL MVP and Heisman Trophy winner has another week of practice to pick things up in the books. Newton also changed the attitude within the locker room and has preached accountability from the moment he returned.
This is going to be another big test for the Panthers. The Miami Dolphins defense is blitz-heavy and has premier playmakers in the secondary to allow this, so Newton will need every ounce of his wits and outstanding ability to make things happen in Week 12.
Finding yards on the ground might be hard to come by against a stout 3-4 front. That makes it even more crucial for Newton to hit his targets in the passing game when opportunities arise.
Not forcing the issue is the big key here.
Take what the defense gives them, be efficient, and take big shots when they appear.
If Newton can do this, Carolina should win. We’re backing Newton to achieve this and achieve more than 18.5 completions at -125 (bet $125 to win 100).
