Carolina at Jacksonville

Carolina has been competitive the past two games after changing coaches and the Panthers have covered the number in both by first defeating Atlanta 9-7 and then losing 33-30 as a 3.5-point underdog against Green Bay on Sunday and the game soared OVER by 23.5 points. Bryce Young threw for a career-high 312 yards and two TDs and the Panthers nearly came back from a 14-point deficit. Carolina outgained the Packers 394-369 and the Panthers are hoping Young's performance will be the start of a turnaround for him and the team. Jacksonville has hit the skids losing four straight following a 30-12 loss at Tampa Bay. The Jaguars have allowed 29.5 points per game during the losing streak. Trevor Lawrence hasn't been close to 100 percent healthy the past few games and last week he threw two interceptions and completed 17 of 29 for 211 yards. Jacksonville is 8-20 ATS its past 28 December games, 7-16 ATS overall following a loss and 4-12 as a home favorite. Carolina is 41-18 OVER as a road underdog of 3.5-10.0 points and the Jaguars are 9-2 OVER after totaling fewer than 90 yards rushing their previous game. Jacksonville is 7-3 OVER its past 10 December games. Take the Panthers and the OVER.
