We have our first split of significance this season.
The prognosticators' collective picks this week sound a little bit like a final score, but not one that the Panthers want any part of: Baltimore 23, Carolina 17.
The two solo analysts in the panel both picked the Panthers, but the Ravens pulled away thanks to a pretty surprising six of seven analysts at SB Nation backing Baltimore. For what it's worth, the "wisdom of the crowd" worked for each of the Panthers' first four games but hasn't for the last two, with the group incorrectly picking Carolina to beat Washington and lose to Philadelphia. The Panthers hope that losing streak continues this week.

FILE - In this Sept. 28, 2014, file photo, Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Steve Smith (89) pulls in a touchdown pass under pressure form Carolina Panthers cornerback Melvin White (23) during the first half of an NFL football game in Baltimore. Fate simply wasn't ready to give the New Orleans Saints a break from long-time nemesis Steve Smith. The former Carolina Panthers receiver not only left the NFC South Division, but went to another conference when he chose to join the Baltimore Ravens in free agency last offseason. The Ravens and Saints meet just once every four years, and one such meeting happens to be on Monday night, Nov. 24, 2014, when New Orleans (4-6) needs a victory to stem a two-game skid and maximize its chances to win its divisional race.
