3 best player prop bets for Carolina Panthers at Saints in Week 17

The best player prop bets available from WynnBET as the Carolina Panthers look to end a poor run of form at the New Orleans Saints in Week 17.

It’s going to be interesting to see how the Carolina Panthers respond after yet another turbulent week when they take on the New Orleans Saints at the Caesars Superdome. The team is currently 6.0-point underdogs for the clash according to the latest odds from WynnBET, with head coach Matt Rhule’s methods have come under increasing scrutiny this week as a result of a scathing article from The Athletic’s Joe Person.

The Panthers need to show some fight, at the very least. They are on a terrible run after their eye-catching 3-0 start, staring another high-end draft pick in the face during what could be a dramatic offseason period for the organization.

New Orleans is not out of playoff contention just yet. But the Panthers could sweep their NFC South rivals with a win and ending Sean Payton’s postseason hopes is another thing that should keep this roster motivated.

With this in mind, here are the three best player prop bets available for those looking to make a wager on the game.

Prop Bet No. 1

Carolina Panthers defense

• Hold Taysom Hill under 1.5 passing TDs (-290)

Getting Taysom Hill back under center represents a complication for the Carolina Panthers. Although the dual-threat quarterback wouldn’t be considered a good pocket passer by any stretch, his ability to create yards on the ground alongside Alvin Kamara in the backfield is something Phil Snow’s defense should take extremely seriously.

The Panthers are significantly depleted in their secondary, with Stephon Gilmore the latest to be ruled out for the contest. New Orleans might see this as an opportunity to utilize the passing game more despite Hill’s inconsistency, so it’s a challenge Carolina has to be ready for.

Based on what we’ve seen from the Saints offense of late, betting Hill to throw under 1.5 passing touchdowns at -290 (bet $290 to win $100) is a realistic bet to make.
