Thursday Night Trail Mix Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles at Carolina Panthers (-3.5)

Thursday, Oct 12th 8:25 PM at Bank of America Stadium

Two 4-1 teams and both coming off big time wins. Carolina beating New England and Detroit on the road back-to-back weeks; when I left them for dead and Eagles only loss coming at the hands of the best team in the league, the only undefeated team in the league, the Kansas City Chiefs. Cam Newton and the Carson Wentz are playing as well as anybody right now and many power rankings show it. For many this is a match-up of who is the best team in the NFC. My money is on the Eagles but you never know. If it turns out this game is a shoot out the Eagles are the team to go with but if it ends up being a lower scoring slobber knocker Carolina and the likes of Luke Kuechly, Thomas Davis and “Old Man” Julius Peppers will be the reason for that.

DFS “Punt Play”

TE Ed Dickson– “The price the is right and there is no Olsen. The TE is a big piece in the Carolina offense and Dickson looks the part.”

Start

QB – Cam Newton – “Superman is back”
RB – LeGarrette Blount – “HC Pederson has finally figured it out to hand it off”
WR – Kelvin Benjamin – “Questionable CB play for the Eagles”
TE – Zach Ertz – “Ertz is an inline TE, slot and outside receiver”
K – Jake Elliot – “He makes 61 yarders”
DST – Carolina Panthers– “They got sacks and LBs ”
