NFL picks Week 13: Panthers vs. Chiefs

Experts weigh in on who will win the Week 13 showdown between the Panthers and Chiefs.

Eric Hartline-US PRESSWIRE

A pair of struggling teams will square off this Sunday as the Carolina Panthers travel to Arrowhead Stadium to take on the Kansas City Chiefs, and experts seem to be siding with the road team.

Despite being 3-8, the Panthers are 2-2 in their last four games after a 30-22 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday. Cam Newton threw for 306 yards and accounted for four total touchdowns in the win. Newton is completing 58% of his passes, throws for 228 yards per game, and runs for 41 more.

At 1-10 and with eight straight losses, the Chiefs have the worst record in the NFL. A second win has yet to come despite the Chiefs boasting the league's fourth-best run game. Led by Jamaal Charles's 4.8 yards per carry, Kansas City runs for 146 yards per game.

It looks like a majority of experts think the Chiefs’ streak will continue. The large staff of pickers at ESPN currently have the Panthers winning by a 5-4 count, and the Accuscore prediction sides with Carolina as well.

Predictions at CBS Sports are more decidedly in favor of the Panthers, as six of eight experts side with Carolina, while three of four pickers at Yahoo! Sports have chosen Carolina as well.
