Panthers vs Saints: NFL Week 9 Recap – Week 10 Preview

The Super Bowl Champion New Orleans Saints came into Week 9 fresh off an impressive 20-10 smothering of the Steelers after an embarrassing Week 7 straight up loss to the Browns (30-17). The Panthers lost 20-10 to the St. Louis Rams in Week 8 NFL action and were sinking like a sunset.

Carolina, with one win on the 2010 NFL season, were playing for next year at 1-6 during a lost season. The Saints were 5-2 and one game back of the NFC South Division leading Atlanta Falcons.

Public and sharp money alike was all over the Saints at the Sportsbook.com betting theatre. Money line betting was 74% on the Saints as well as 79% against the spread while the game total was backed with 76% on the OVER bet.

Drew Brews leads Super Bowl Champs past Panthers – Final Score: 34-3

The aforementioned loss to the Browns seems to have served as a wake up call for the Saints and QB Drew Bress as they appeared to be stumbling along with a Super Bowl size hangover. The game result was in question until the 2:28 mark of the first quarter when the Saints got out to a 7-3 lead and never looked back.

Spread bettors at Bodog.com were celebrating once New Orleans took a commanding 20-3 lead halfway through the 3rd period as the toothless Panthers seemed to roll over in defeat.

When Jabari Gree scored an interception return TD to push the score to 27-3 the Panthers were reaching for third string QB Tony Pike. The Saints -300 money line backers were adding up their winnings at that point in the game.

With Carolina QB Pike replacing an ineffective Jimmy Clausen who was replacing an injured Matt Moore punters on the game total at Bodog.com were confident the 41 point total was going to stay UNDER. Once the Saints pulled Brees, half way through the 4th quarter in favor of sophomore QB Chase Daniel, the 34-3 win by New Orleans was all but in the books.

New Orleans (6-3) is a half game back of the division leading Atlanta Falcons who sit with a 6-2 record.
