Good Afternoon!

Carolina came off a bye and a road win, were at home and favored, and got smoked 43-13 by Tampa. Howard's advice is to put all of that out of your mind. Mark is not taking a side at all, landing on the over 46.5 at Lambeau, with both of these defenses sitting near the bottom of the league at stopping the run. Kickoff is 8:15 PM ET on Prime Video.

Here's what you need to know today.

NFL FIRST TD PICK
Tetairoa McMillan (CAR)
First TD Scorer (+1350)
We've already got our top anytime TD scorers locked and loaded, so you can use those guys in this spot as well, but when it comes to 1st TD scorer picks, why not have some fun? This isn't even a crazy longshot, as the Panthers passing attack has been far better than what we saw on Sunday against the Bucs. With how well the Packers passing game can put the pressure on, Bryce Young is going to have to keep up, and that means his #1 target.

NFL SPREAD PICK
Carolina Panthers
+3.5
Put everything you saw from the Panthers last week and put it out of your mind. Their offensive line is getting healthier and I expect them to push back way more on the Packers than they did against the Bucs. Also, the Panthers are currently on a 13-game ATS winning streak off a SU loss dating back to 2024, so we're going to lean into that on a Thursday night.

Mark's full TNF breakdown is above with the showdown playbook and the anytime TD board beside it, and the Week 8 sleepers and matchups chart are there for anyone already building toward Sunday. Kickoff is 8:15 PM ET from Lambeau on Prime Video, the total sits at 46.5 and Mark is on the over, with both defenses among the worst in the league at stopping the run. Both exclusives back Carolina anyway: Mark wants Tetairoa McMillan to open the scoring at +1350, and Howard is taking the points off the back of a 13-game ATS run following a straight-up loss. Good luck tonight.
