Week 2 NFL picks for Chargers vs. Panthers

Before tuning into Sunday's Panthers vs. Chargers game, you need to see the NFL picks from SportsLine's advanced computer model. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up well over $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 2 of the 2024 NFL season on an incredible 184-130 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season. It is also on a 38-22 roll on top-rated NFL betting picks since Week 7 of 2022.

For Panthers vs. Chargers, the model is backing L.A. to cover the spread. Harbaugh likes to implement a run-heavy offense, and that paid off in Week 1 as J.K. Dobbins led the way with 135 rushing yards and a touchdown. L.A. rushed for 176 yards overall, which could spell trouble for a Carolina defense that allowed 180 rushing yards in Week 1.

The Chargers new head coach is also 39-24-2 ATS in his NFL coaching career and was 9-4 ATS coaching a California team on the East Coast when he was with the 49ers. Meanwhile, the Panthers only covered the spread four times in 2023 and have already failed to cover last week in their loss to the Saints. You may be able to stream the game here.
