This might be a tougher game than the Giants think it will on Sunday.  The Giants should be able to control the football with Brandon Jacobs and Ahmad Bradshaw running against a Panthers’ D that is allowing 130.4 yards rushing per game and 4.6 yards per carry.  Eli Manning will have to be careful throwing the ball against the Panthers who already have 19 interceptions this season.  But, if the O-Line gives Manning time to throw the football which won’t be easy as Julius Peppers is a load to block then he should have some success.

The Giants will likely go all out to stop the Panthers’ running game as they are rolling up 148.1 yards rushing and 4.7 yards per carry so far this year.  The Giants must get pressure on Matt Moore when he drops back to pass because he has been getting the ball to Steve Smith which makes the Panthers a very explosive offense.

PREDICTION:  GIANTS 24, PANTHERS 20
