Tennessee Titans vs. Carolina Panthers: Spread Info, Line and Predictions

The Tennessee Titans head to Charlotte to take on the Carolina Panthers in a game that will feature a whole lot of scoring. 

These teams may be a whole lot better if they could actually stifle any teams from gaining yards. That is more true for the Panthers, who have one of the most prolific offenses thanks to rookie phenom Cam Newton. 

The Titans need this game badly if they are going to stay within spitting distance of the division-leading Texans. 

Let's take a closer look at what should be a high-scoring affair. 

Where: Bank of America Stadium, Charlotte, North Carolina

When: Sunday, November 13, 1:00 p.m. ET

Watch: CBS 

Spread: According to Bodog.eu Carolina Panthers -3.5

The Panthers get the obligatory love for being at home. I give them an added boost as the Titans will struggle with the run and Cam Newton gets off to a masterful day. I like the Panthers by a touchdown. 

Over/Under: According to Bodog.eu 46

I have the game going slightly over this mark, and it may be a whole lot more. This will not be a defensive game by any means. 

Key Injuries

Titans: Chris Hope, S, Out; Ahmard Hall, RB, Questionable; Craig Stevens, TE, Questionable; Colin McCarthy, LB, Questionable

Panthers: Jordan Pugh, S, Doubtful; Darius Butler, CB, Questionable; Omar Gaither, LB, Probable

Fantasy Big Plays

Cam Newton: Start 'em—Cam Newton continues to be a fantasy stud. There is no reason to question him in your lineup against a mediocre defense against QBs in the Titans. 

Chris Johnson: Sit 'em—By now you really should have a solid replacement anyway. We have been saying for weeks that Johnson would break out, and we are still waiting. He showed promise last week, but promise hardly wins fantasy games. 

DeAngelo Williams: Sit 'em—Cam Newton continues to be the offense...all of it. Sit Williams, who will again get half the touches he should. 

Keys to Titans Win: It seems that they just aren't going to stop Cam Newton. The key here is to outpace the Panthers on the scoreboard and they will do that only if their star running back has a full four quarters of dominance. 

Keys to Panthers Win: The Panthers' defense needs to show up against the ground game. They are simply giving up too many yards in rushing. They should make some inroads that way as Johnson continues to struggle. 

Prediction: Panthers 27, Titans 20
