Panthers go from three point favorite to 2.5 point underdog versus Cardinals

Before Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton was placed on the injury report the Panthers were three point favorites. Once his status became questionable the line was removed as Vegas decided it needed a final ruling before reopening bets on this game. Once the announcement was made that Newton would not play the line took a different direction, now favoring the Arizona Cardinals by 2.5 points. I think taking the Panthers plus 2.5 is a solid play as the pundits are overlooking a number of things. From TopBet:

First, the Panthers are mainly 0-2 in 2019 because the offense has not been very good under Cam Newton.
