Why is Carilina favored by only 3 points here?
Before the game in Seattle I would've said that they hadn't played a tough team yet (Saints, Texans, Bucs, Jaguars).
Now? I'm not really sure; I guess a lot of people still have some weird faith in the eagles or something. People who use systems that rely on point differentials will find little difference between the two teams, so that might be another.
EDIT: I guess because, at a glance, Carolina appears as a run-first offense with a good pass defense. Statistically, Cam Newton is a below average QB. Though he's better than Bradford, so again, I'm confused too.
