Chip's 'Stand Alone' Side NFL Winner
(NFL) Carolina vs. Houston,
Point Spread: 9.00 | -115.00 Houston (Home)
Result: Loss
Carolina at Houston 8:15 ET
Texans (+) over Carolina- This is a really tough call and it has taken me most of the day to finally squeeze the trigger and make the call. Houston as we are all aware are down to their third quarterback as Tyrod Taylor who replaced Deshaun Watson has a rib injury and the duties have fallen upon rookie Davis Mills. The 2-0 Panthers have a refreshed Sam Darnold at the helm and he looks and is playing like a different guy from what we saw when he led the Jets. Both offenses are comparable but Carolina's defense has been outstanding ranking No. 1 allowing just 190 total yards per game. Play HOUSTON!
