Week 3 NFL Pick: Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Carolina Panthers
Stan Simmons of BetOnline.com is all over the Carolina and Cam Newton with his Week 3 NFL pick.
“In a game between a pair of rookie quarterbacks, take Newton to put on a better show at home against Gabbert and the Jaguars, although the running games may be the bigger story. The team that establishes that part of their offense will come away with the win, and the duo of Williams and Stewart haven’t gotten going on the ground due to Newton, so expect the Panthers to be more balanced. Look for the Panthers to cover the spread this weekend.”
