NFL Week 1 Preview, Prediction: Carolina Panthers Vs. New York Giants

Carolina Panthers (0-0) vs. New York Giants (0-0)

When: 1:00 p.m. Sunday, FOX

SB Nation Panthers: Cat Scratch Reader

SB Nation Giants: Big Blue View

Breakdown: If the game comes down to quarterbacks, then you have to favor the Giants here. The Panthers will trot out QB Matt Moore for his first season opener as the starter. He's young and inexperience while the Giants defense is full of veterans. This could be a long day for Moore.

Player to Watch: The Panthers best shot at winning this game may come from the run game so that's why DeAngelo Williams could be a key component here. John Fox prefers veterans so if Williams can get going, the Panthers have a shot.

Line: Giants are seven-point favorites.

Prediction: All Giants, all the time in this one. Their defensive line should be able to handle the Panthers running game leaving the game in Matt Moore's hands, which probably isn't a good thing no matter how well he played last year.
