New York Jets at Carolina Panthers: 3 best Jets prop bets

The New York Jets visit the Carolina Panthers Sunday of Week 1. The game will kick off at 1 p.m. ET at Bank of America Stadium. Below, we look at the Jets vs. Panthers prop bet odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

Both teams have undergone quite a bit of change this offseason. The Panthers are now led by former Jets QB Sam Darnold, and the Jets are led by rookie QB Zach Wilson.

With superstar RB Christian McCaffrey back in action, the Panthers should have a relatively dynamic offense, one that the rookie will need to keep up with.

Along with Wilson, the Jets added RB Tevin Coleman and WR Corey Davis to help the offense.

Odds provided by Tipico Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports' betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 8:40 a.m. ET.

Jets QB Zach Wilson OVER 1.5 passing TDs (+150)

The Jets drafted Wilson with the second overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. He's the heir to the offensive throne and with qualified receivers, Wilson should have the ability to move the ball.

Davis is capable of helping grab balls in the endzone and provides a middle-of-the-field threat. After his preseason debut, Wilson was given the highest PFF score among the first-round quarterbacks.

At plus-money value, Wilson getting a couple of touchdowns, without an overly competent run game, isn't too far-fetched.

Jets RB Tevin Coleman OVER 29.5 rushing yards (-112)

The Jets are going to have to try to move the ball somehow.

Coleman has as good of a chance to make his presence felt in their run game as any other back. The Jets have Coleman listed as the starter which should give him some edge.

The Panthers had a bottom-half run defense last season and didn't do much to improve it. Coleman should get over 30 yards.

Total Field Goals Made OVER 3.5 (+130)

While Wilson has a good chance to make his debut a memorable one, both Darnold and the rookie may struggle to get in the endzone.

With both defenses not looking in great form, especially with Jets DE Carl Lawson out of the season, this game could be filled with field goals. One per quarter doesn't feel too extreme.

At plus-money value, I'd bet on the Jets and Panthers to be able to move the ball yet not fully convert drives. Carolina and New York combined to average four kicks per game in 2020, and if they all are hit, this prop could be a steal.
