Buffalo is coming off a home loss against New England. That was their first loss of the season. L.A. is 2-2 after a big comeback win on the road against Philly. The Rams have had a difficult schedule. They have played three road games. The Bills have had a much easier schedule. They have played their last three games at home and they have not played a team that currently has a winning record. Two of the Bills wins have come against 0-4 teams. Buffalo’s new 3-4 defense has been an issue. They are ranked 25th in points allowed per game and 27th in passing yards allowed. Look for the Rams offense to have success moving the football. Take the Rams.  

The Ravens will not have their starting QB Lamar Jackson in their lineup. Veteran Tyler Huntley will get the start. Huntley has had some good moments during his career, but he has a 7-9 record as a starter. The Falcons have had the best offense in the league over the last two weeks and they have the No. 1 rush defense. Take Atlanta.

Detroit is off to a 2-2 start but they have not looked good this season. They are coming off a road loss against Carolina. The Cards are 1-3 after losing their last three games. Arizona’s starting QB Jacoby Brissett does not have a good winning percentage as a starting QB. The 33-year-old veteran has a 21-48 record as a starter. Detroit has struggled defensively this season, but so have the Cards. Look for Detroit to get past Arizona. Take Detroit.

Seattle bounced back with a home win against the Chargers after losing their only game of the season on the road against Washington the previous week. San Francisco is 4-0 after a home win against Denver. The 49ers have a number of injuries to key players and they lead the league in missed games due to injuries this season. This is a tough spot for the 49ers. They are playing one of the best teams in the league on the road and they are missing a number of key players. Take Seattle.

The Packers are off to a 2-2 start. They are coming off a big road win against the Bucs last week. Chicago will not have their starting quarterback Caleb Williams in their lineup. This is a big home game for Green Bay. A win over their rival would put them one game above 500 and in a tie with Chicago in the standings. The Packers should have momentum coming off that win against Tampa Bay. Take Green Bay.

New York has won their last two games despite not having starting QB Jaxon Dart in their lineup. Both of those wins came at home against weak teams. New York lost their only road game this season by 22 points against the Rams. Washington upset Seattle at home two weeks ago and they are expected to have QB Jayden Daniels back in their lineup. Take Washington.

Miami has played better the last two weeks. They almost covered the spread two weeks ago at home against Kansas City and they were able to cover the number on the road last week against Minny. Cincy was off to a 2-0 start, but they are coming off two straight losses against the Steelers and Jags. Miami did not have a sack in their first three games. They were able to sack Minny’s QB Kyler Murray four times last week. The Dolphins are allowing just 3.6 yards per rush. Offense has been an issue for Miami. If they can find a way to score points, they should be competitive at home against an inconsistent Bengals team. Take Miami. 

Both teams are 0-4. The Titans were competitive in two road losses against the Giants and Ravens the last two weeks. Surprisingly, Tennessee has been better defensively than Houston. The Titans have struggled offensively. If they can find a way to improve offensively they should be able to keep this game close. Take Tennessee.

It has been a tough start for Tampa Bay. Rookie Jalon Daniels will make his second start for the Bucs. Dallas has been very good offensively again this season, but they are struggling defensively. Tampa Bay will probably try to control the football on the ground in this game. The Bucs have the 10th ranked rushing offense. They are averaging 4.4 yards per carry. Dallas’ 27th ranked rushing defense is allowing 4.8 yards per rush. If Tampa Bay can have success running the football and if Tampa Bay’s head coach Todd Bowles can find a way to slow down Dallas’ offense, the Bucs should be able to keep this game close. Take Tampa Bay. 

This is a big game for both teams. Both are 1-2 heading into this game. The Falcons are coming off a win against the Packers. That was QB Michael Penix’s first start of the season. Penix completed 72% of his passes and he had a 101.4 QB rating. New Orleans is coming off a loss in their first home game of the season against the Raiders. Atlanta has the No. 1 ranked rushing defense. They are allowing just 47.7 yards per game. Falcons running back Bijan Robinson is averaging 5.3 yards per carry. He rushed for 194 yards in that win against the Packers. Atlanta should be able to move the football against the Saints 27th ranked defense. Take Atlanta. 

Detroit is 2-1 this season, but they have not played well. Both of their wins were close games at home against average teams and they did not play well in a road loss against the Bills. Carolina has been inconsistent this season. They are coming off a road loss in Cleveland. Both teams have very good offensive teams and both have struggled defensively. Look for the Lions to get on track against a Panthers team that struggles defensively. Take Detroit.

Both teams are coming off road losses. The Rams played well in a loss in Denver, while Philly struggled in their loss against The Bears. Both teams are dealing with injuries to key players. Philly will not have wide receivers Devante Smith and Hollywood Brown in their lineup and tight end Dallas Goedert will not be available. The Eagles are ranked 25th in points scored per game. Injuries to key receivers will add to their offensive problems. Take the Rams.

Both teams are off to poor starts. The Packers were handled easily in their last game at home against Atlanta, while the Bucs are 0-3 this season and they will not have their starting QB Baker Mayfield in their lineup. Tampa Bay will turn to undrafted QB Jalon Daniels. The Packers have had a few extra days to prepare for this game and Daniels was not good enough to be drafted. Take Green Bay.

Both teams are 1-2 after wins last week. Marcus Mariota will make his second straight start for the Commanders. The Colts are much healthier than Washington heading into this game. Indy has had a tough schedule. They are a much better team offensively than Washington, especially with Mariota getting the start. Take Indy.

Both teams are coming off big home wins. The Steelers Aaron Rogers is coming off a good game at home against Cincy. Cleveland is coming off a home win against Carolina. Rogers was 19 of 34 for 292 yards with three touchdown passes and one interception in that win. Pittsburgh is ranked 11th in points allowed per game. Cleveland scored just 21 points last week against a Panthers defense that is ranked 26th in points allowed per game. Look for the Browns to struggle offensively. Take Pittsburgh.

The Rams have had a tough schedule. They played in Australia in their first game of the season, played at home last week on the west coast and now they have to travel to Denver to meet a good Broncos team. Denver is 1-1 after a big home win against the Jags last week. Denver defeated a good Jags team last week and they are playing at home. Take Denver.

Arizona is 1-1 after a home loss against Seattle. Their win came in week one on the road against the Chargers. Arizona has covered in three of the last four games between these teams. The 49ers are dealing with a number of injuries to key players. Wide receiver Mike Evans is questionable and wide receiver Damarcus Robinson will not play. Defensive linemen Nick Bosa, Romello Height and James Thompson Jr. will also be sidelined. Look for the Cards to keep this game close. Take Arizona.

The Browns should have momentum coming off a road win against Tampa Bay last week. Take Cleveland.

Cincy has played good football in their first two games. They are a small road favourite against a Steelers team that is 1-1 after a road loss against New England last week. This is a rivalry game and the Steelers are 4-2 in the last six meetings. Take Pittsburgh.

Atlanta will have Michael Penix Jr. as their starting QB for this game. The Falcons will face a Packers team that is 1-1 after a comeback win on the road against the Jets last week. Green Bay is 1-1, but they did not look good in either game. The Packers have struggled defensively since Micah Parsons was injured last season and they are ranked 25th in points allowed per game this season. Michael Penix Jr. played in nine games last season. He completes 60.1 percent of his passes. Penix should be an upgrade over last week’s starting QB Copper Rush. Take Atlanta.

The Giants are coming off a big win at home in John Harbaugh’s first game as head coach. The Rams lost their opening game against the 49ers in Australia. The good news for the Rams is that they have had a few extra days to prepare for this game. New York has a number of injuries to key defensive players and L.A. will not be happy with that loss in their opener. Take the Rams.

Indy is coming off a blowout home loss against Baltimore last week. They are a big road underdog in this game against a Chiefs team that played well in a division win against the Broncos at home in their first game of the season. Kansas City has a number of injuries to key players. Look for a letdown from the Chiefs coming off that win against Denver. Take Indy.  

The Raiders are coming off a home win last week against Miami, while the Chargers were upset at home as a 9.5 favourite by the Cards. Last week’s game was the first game that the Chargers had Mike McDaniels as their offensive coordinator. The Chargers have won the last four games between these teams and McDaniels and starting QB Justin Herbert should be able to have success against a Raiders team that was ranked 25th in points allowed last season. Take the Chargers.    

The Browns were blown out last week by a good Jacksonville team. QB DeShaun Watson saw his first action since he injured his Achilles tendon in January 2025. Watson had decent stats last week. He was 16 of 22 for 205 yards and one touchdown pass. Cleveland’s new head coach Todd Monken had success as the offensive coordinator in Baltimore for the previous three seasons. He should be able to have a game plan that will keep this game close. Take Cleveland.

Both teams are coming off close wins last week. Buffalo struggled defensively against an average Houston offense. They allowed 124 yards rushing and 398 total yards in that game. Buffalo has switched to a 3-4 defense this season. That can make them vulnerable against the run. Detroit’s star running back Jahmyr Gibbs rushed for 156 yards against the Saints last week. He should be able to have success running the football against Buffalo’s 3-4 defense. Take Detroit.

The Chargers have been inconsistent over the last few years. Take Arizona. 

Washington should be a better team this season with QB Jayden Daniels back in their line up. This should be a close game. Take Washington. 

New York had three first round picks in this years draft. They should be a better team this season.  Take the Jets.   

The Bills have a much better offensive team. Take Buffalo. 

Take the 49ers. 

The Pats should be ready for this game coming off that Super Bowl loss against Seattle. Take New England. 

Two very good defensive teams match up in this game. Both teams were long odds to make the Super Bowl at the beginning of the season. Seattle was +6,000 to win the big game, while New England was + 8,000 - +10,000. This game should be decided by the defenses and whether or not New England can protect QB Drake Maye. Seattle’s star defensive safety Nick Emmanwori injured his ankle in practice. His injury could be an issue for Seattle. He is expected to play, but he will probably not be 100%. New England’s offensive line has been an issue recently, but they have had two weeks to prepare for this game. The Seahawks will not have second string running back Zach Charbonnet in their lineup. That could be a problem for Seattle. Charbonnet was an important part of Seattle’s offense this season. New England’s head coach Mike Vrabel and offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels have a lot of big game and Super Bowl experience. That should give them an advantage over Seattle. Take New England.

These teams split their two games this season. The Rams head to Seattle as a small road underdog. Their No. 1 offense is led by veteran Matt Stafford. Stafford has more playoff experience than Seattle’s QB Sam Darnold. All three of Seattle’s offensive tackles have missed practice this week. Sam Darnold has been limited in practice with an oblique injury and Seattle’s back up running back Zach Charbonnet will not play. The Rams are an experienced team that has the advantage at the QB position and with their head coach. Take the Rams.

The Rams and Bears are both coming off close wins in their first playoff games. The Rams are the more experienced team and QB Matt Stafford is having a great season. Chicago’s defense leads the league in turnovers, but they are not a great defensive team. The Bears rely on defensive turnovers, but the Rams turned the football over just 15 times all season. L.A. should be able to move the football against the Bears defense. Take the Rams.

Both teams are coming off great defensive performances. Houston was lucky that they were playing against a below average Steelers team last week. Texans QB C. J. Stroud turned the football over numerous times. New England’s starting QB Drake Maye has been outstanding this season. The Pats have a very good defense. They are ranked fourth in points allowed per game and 8th in yards allowed per contest. The Pats have the edge at QB and they are playing at home. Take New England. 

Seattle defeated the 49ers a few weeks ago. That gave them a first round bye and home field advantage throughout the playoffs. Despite missing numerous players from their lineup, the 49ers were able to defeat the Eagles on the road last week. George Kittle was added to the 49ers injury list after he tore his Achilles tendon last week. The 49ers may have gotten away with numerous injuries to key players up until this point, but the loss of Kittle and the fact that they are playing a very good team that has a great defense should be a problem for the 49ers. Take Seattle.

Houston has won their last nine games. The Steelers are 4-1 in their last five games. Arron Rogers and head coach Mike Tomlin have a lot of experience in big games and they are playing at home. Take Pittsburgh.  

The 49ers are coming off a big loss against Seattle. If they had won that game they would have had a first round bye. Now they have to go on the road to meet the defending Super Bowl champions. Philly has the fifth ranked defense. They are allowing just 19.1 points per game. In their last three games before their game against Washington last week they allowed an average of 10 points per game. San Francisco has played most of their recent games against weak teams. Injuries have been an issue for the 49ers for most of this season. They have been able to win games against weak teams despite having a number of  injuries to key players. It may be a different story against a good team. Take Philly.

The Rams lost the regular season game between these teams in Carolina. The Panthers finished the season one game below 500 and they were 1-3 in their last four games. L.A. has the best offense in the league. Carolina struggles offensively. They are ranked 27th in points scored and yards gained per game. L.A.’s head coach Sean McVay is one of the best coaches in the league. He will have learned a lot about the Panthers from their first matchup. McVay should have a good game plan. Take the Rams. 

Dallas has a chance to finish 500. They will play a Giants team that finally won a game last week. The Cowboys Dak Prescott may not play the entire game. New York should have momentum coming off that win last week and they are playing at home. Take the Giants.

The Atlanta Falcons and visiting New Orleans Saints are undoubtedly the hottest teams in the NFC South. Unfortunately for the two rivals, their hot streaks will result in lower draft picks for both teams. Aside from that these are two average teams. This should be a close game. Take New Orleans.

The winner of this game will win the division. The Bucs were off to a good start to their season, but they are 1-7 and 0-8 ATS in their last eight games. Carolina is a better team this season, but they are not a great team. They are 8-8 and 5-5 in their last 10 games. Carolina won the first meeting between these teams at home in December. Tampa Bay has a lot of experience in big games and they are playing at home. Take Tampa Bay.    

With wins in their last two games and in three of their last four contests Atlanta will try to play spoiler at home against the Rams. L.A. is coming off a tough one-point loss against the Seahawks. Atlanta’s offense has been better recently. They have scored at least 24 points in four of Kirk Cousins last five starts. Atlanta has the 8th ranked rushing offense. If they can have success running the football, stay away from turnovers and get some production from Cousins throwing the football they should be able to keep this game close at home. Take Atlanta.

Philly has won their last two games against weak teams. They head to Buffalo to meet a Bills team that has won their last four games. Buffalo is 11-4, but they are 7-8 ATS. This is a Buffalo team that has a history of losing big games at crucial times. Take Philly.

Two of the worst teams in the league match up in this game. Both teams have lost their last nine games. Max Crosby will not play for Las Vegas. The Raiders have the 25th ranked defense and they will not have Crosby in their lineup. Take the Giants.

The Jags are coming off a big win in Denver. Indy were embarrassed at home in their last game by the 49ers. Indy will not make the playoffs, but they would like to play spoiler against a division rival. Take Indy.

Despite the fact that the Colts have lost their last four games, they still have a chance to make the playoffs. Indy is coming off a good performance last week at Seattle. This is Philip Rivers second start for the Colts. He completed 66.7% of his passes in his first start. Rivers has had more time to prepare for this game and the Colts are 6-1 at home. Take Indy.

This should be a great game. Both teams are in the playoff hunt. New England had their win streak end last week. They blew a 21-point lead at home against Buffalo. Baltimore bounced back from two straight losses with a big win at Cincy. Miami is a young team that is coming off a bad loss against Buffalo last week at home. They will face an experienced Baltimore team that played well last week in their game in Cincy. Take Baltimore.

Pittsburgh is coming off two big wins against the Ravens and Dolphins. Detroit lost their last game in L.A. against the Rams. Aaron Rogers looked great in their win last week against Miami. The Lions do not look like the same team that made the playoffs last season and Rogers has plenty of experience playing against Detroit. Look for the Steelers to be competitive. Take Pittsburgh.

Both teams have been a disappointment. The Falcons are 2-2 in their last four games. They are coming off an upset win against the Bucs. Arizona has lost six straight games. The Falcons have lost five games in a row in Arizona. The Cards are at home and they are getting points. Take Arizona.

Make it two straight wins for the Vikings. Minny upended the Cowboys in Dallas last week. They face a Giants team that has lost eight straight games. Minny has played better recently, but this is their fourth road game in their last five games. Take the Giants.

This game is for first place in the division. Both teams are coming off losses against sub-500 teams. Tampa Bay got off to a fast start, but they are 1-5 and 0-6 ATS in their last six games. Carolina has alternated wins and losses over their last eight contests. The Bucs have more experience in big games. Take Tampa Bay.

L.A. is coming off a big win in Kansas City. They are currently in a playoff position. Dallas is coming off a home loss against Minny. The Chargers are coming off two difficult games against Philly and last week in Kansas City. They are on the road for the second straight week against a team that has a very good offense. Look for a letdown from the Chargers Take Dallas. 

Green Bay is a small road underdog after losing in Denver last week. Chicago is coming off a blowout win against the Browns. The Packers defeated the Bears at home two games ago 28-21. Green Bay has the 10the ranked scoring offense. The Bears’ defense has played better recently, but they are ranked 21st in points allowed per game and 24th in yards allowed per contest. If Green Bay can avoid turnovers, they should be able to be competitive. Take Green Bay.  

Philly ended their three-game losing streak with a home win against the Raiders last week. Washington ended their eight-game losing streak with a win in New York against the Giants. Philly is coming off an easy win against a very weak Raiders team. The Eagles seem like a team that is dealing with internal problems. This is the Commanders Super Bowl. They are at home against a division rival that is in the playoff race. Take Washington.

Two of the best teams in the NFL match up in this game. The Rams are coming off a comeback win at home against the Lions. Seattle was able to get past the Colts at home in their last game. Both teams are 11-3 and both are 10-4 ATS. This game should come down to the Rams offense versus the Seahawks defense. Seattle's defense ranks second in the league in opponents' scoring, allowing just 17.3 points per game. This is a tough spot for L.A. They are coming off a big win at home against the Lions and they have to travel on a short week to meet one of the best teams in the league. Take Seattle.

Miami has won their last four games and they are 5-1 in their last six contests. Pittsburgh moved to one game above 500 after a big road win against Baltimore last week. The Dolphins struggled early this season defensively. They have been very good defensively over their last four games, but three of those games were against very weak teams. Although Miami has been winning, they have not thrown for more than 173 yards in each of their last four games. The Steelers Aaron Rogers is coming off one of his best games of the season. Rogers threw for 284 yards in that win against the Ravens. Pittsburgh’s coach Mike Tomlin usually has his team ready for big games and the Steelers are playing at home. Take Pittsburgh.

The Vikings ended their four-game losing streak with a 31-0 win at home against Washington. Dallas had won three straight games before losing their last game in Detroit. It was the Cowboys defense that let them down again in that game. Minny’s J.J. McCarthy completed 69.8 percent of his passes in that win and he threw for three touchdowns. The Cowboys continue to have defensive issues. If McCarthy can stay away from turning the ball over the Vikings should be competitive. Take Minny.  

Detroit has been inconsistent this season. Injuries have been an issue, especially on their offensive line. Despite dealing with injuries the Lions are in the playoff hunt. L.A. is having a great season. They are 10-3 and 9-4 ATS. Detroit has been able to get away with injuries to key players on their offensive line up until this point. It will probably be a different story when they face the L.A.’s third ranked defense in points allowed per game. Take the Rams.

This is an interesting matchup between a Panthers team that is in the playoff hunt and a Saints team that upset the Bucs last week in Tampa Bay. Carolina is coming off a big win against the Rams and they are coming off their bye week. New Orleans will be looking to play spoiler and they are playing at home. All of the pressure will be on Carolina. Take New Orleans.

The Chiefs are one game below 500 with just four games left in the season. The good thing for Kansas City is that they are playing one of the teams that is ahead of them in the standings. L.A. is coming off a big win at home against Philly on Monday night. Chargers QB Justin Herbert will play in his second straight game with a broken wrist. Kansas City is at home and this is a must win situation. Take Kansas City.

The Ravens opened as a road favourite against a Bengals team that has a three percent chance of making the playoffs. Baltimore has lost their last two games. One of those losses came against the Bengals at home two games ago. Cincy has played better since Joe Burrow returned to their lineup, but their defense continues to be an issue. Look for the Ravens to settle down on the road. Take Baltimore.

The Bucs are tied for the division lead with a 7-6 record after a home loss against the Saints. Tampa Bay were lucky to win a number of close games early this season. Injuries have been an issue for the Bucs. Wide Receiver Mike Evans has been dealing with injuries for most of this season. He is listed as questionable for this game. This is a divisional game. Atlanta has won five of the past seven meetings.  All of the pressure will be on Tampa Bay. Take Atlanta.

This is a big game for both teams. A loss by either team would make it difficult for that team to make the playoffs. Houston is hot. They have won their last four games and they are 5-1 in their last six contests. The Chiefs are 6-6 after a loss in Dallas on Thanksgiving Day. Kansas City is an experienced team. They are used to being in pressure situations. The Chiefs should be able to find a way to win this game against a Houston team that has struggled offensively. Take Kansas City.

This game is for first place in the division. Both teams are coming off big wins last week. Chicago leads the league in takeaways, but they are ranked 25th in points allowed per game. Green Bay is allowing just 18.8 points per game. The Packers defense should be able to slow down the Bears offense. The Bears have gotten away with poor defensive numbers up until this point. That should catch up with them eventually. Take Green Bay.     

The Dolphins are 5-7 after winning their last three games. They have less than a one percent chance of making the playoffs. New York picked up their third win of the season against Atlanta last week. New York has played better football recently and they are playing at home. Take the Jets.

The Colts have lost three of their last four games. They are coming off a home loss against Houston. The Jags have won three straight games and four of their last five contests. Despite that fact, the Colts are a small road favourite in this game. The Jags have a history of losing important games. Take Indy.

Two of the worst teams in the AFC match up in this game in Cleveland. Neither team has a good offense. The Browns Shadeur Sanders threw for 149 yards against the 49ers last week. Sanders has not proven that he is a capable NFL QB. Take the Titans.

The Giants will have QB Jaxon Dart in their lineup. Dart is a rookie that has not played a lot this season. That could be a problem for the Giants when they match up against the Pats 6th ranked defense. New England has a very good offense that is led by QB Drake Maye. Maye has thrown nine touchdown passes in his last five games. The Pats are scoring an average of 26.5 points per game. They should be able to move the football against the Giants 30th ranked defense. Take New England.

The Broncos are one of the hottest teams in the league. They have won their last eight games. Washington is 3-8. They are a respectable 2-3 at home. Washington’s QB Marcus Mariota has a high completion percentage. The Commanders held Miami to 16 points in their last game in Miami. If Washington’s defense can come up with another good effort Washington should be able to keep this game close at home. Take Washington.

The Jags are 7-4. They are in the playoff hunt. The Titans have won one game this season and they are 0-6 at home.  The Jags will need to win games against inferior teams if they want to contend. Take the Jags.

The 49ers are 3-1 and 3-1 ATS in their last four games. Cleveland won their last game on the road against Las Vegas. The Browns have a good defense, but they struggle offensively. Shedeur Sanders had a low completion percentage in his first start. He completed just 55% of his passes. Look for Sanders to struggle. Take the 49ers.  

Atlanta won their first game with QB at the helm. Cousins was 16 for 23 and he had a 69.6 completion percentage. The Jets had won two straight games before losing their last two contests. The Falcons are a better team with Cousins. Take Atlanta.

The Saints could not follow up with a win last week at home after winning their previous game in Carolina. Miami has won two straight games, but they are not a great football team. Tale New Orleans.
