I’m on the Panthers here. Bottom line is it’s just the better price with the home team between a pair of teams with nothing but pride to play for here, and while a loss is better for Florida’s draft lottery prospects, it’s still about the fact that the Panthers have been a massive disappointment this season and I’m sure they’d like to give their fans a proper send off before trying again next season. Give me Florida here.
