Prediction: Giants 13 Panthers 24

Week Five is going to be a very tough game for the Giants to win. The Panthers have stacked up just about every position and look like a serious contender in the NFC.

With that being said the Panthers will walk away with a victory over the Giants in this Week 5 matchup.

After a strong performance by DJ Moore and Torrey Smith the Panthers offense will show the Giants and the rest of the NFL just how good they are at the Giants expense.

Unfortunately, Landon Collins, Janoris Jenkins and the rest of the Giants secondary won’t do enough to keep the Panthers out of the end zone.

On the offensive Eli Manning will continue to go down at the hands of the Panthers D-Line and the Giants won’t be able to get much done.

The Panthers and Giants have a riveting history despite not being division rivals. They have a history in the playoffs and tempers flared in their most recent game against each other.

This game will be no different. The Giants just do not have the firepower to keep up with the Panther who are a very good home team.

Hopefully I’m wrong, but Week 5 is going to be a very tough matchup for the Giants in Carolina.

Next. Meanwhile at Jets camp.... dark

We will just have to see how it goes.
