Conor Orr: Titans +5.5

The Eagles’ run protection continues to be in its nascent phases of coming collectively. I just like the Titans’ skill to play sound protection and preserve the ball away from Jalen Hurts. Philadelphia won’t be able to show this protection and intestine them for a record-setting variety of dashing yards like they did per week in the past.

Jimmy Traina: Lions -1.5

The Lions are available on further relaxation after dropping a troublesome one to the Payments on Thanksgiving. Detroit has received three in a row earlier than the loss to Buffalo and are enjoying their greatest soccer throughout the Dan Campbell regime. There is no motive the Lions cannot get again to their profitable methods at residence in opposition to a 4-7 Jaguars crew, particularly with Travis Etienne banged up.

Frank Taddeo: Seattle -4.5

Geno Smith, who leads the NFL in completion share (72.8%), has thrown a number of landing passes in 5 consecutive video games. Los Angeles, who has misplaced 5 consecutive video games in addition to seven of their final eight (1-7 SU), are a crew that has huge damage points on each side of the ball. On the offensive aspect, the membership will probably be with out the providers of quarterback Matthew Stafford (concussion) in addition to wideout Cooper Kupp (ankle) and Allen Robinson (foot). On the defensive aspect, star defensive sort out Aaron Donald (foot) will miss the primary sport of his profession. The Rams, who’re 8-2 SU and 7-3 ATS during the last ten conferences, will probably be hard-pressed to proceed their dominance. The Rams, who rank twenty ninth in scoring, averaging a disappointing 16.2 factors per sport, are 3-9-1 ATS (25%) over their final 13 video games courting again to final season.

Michael Fabiano: Packers -2.5

Inexperienced Bay has been a shaky wager for the wagering world this season, going 2-7 in opposition to the unfold in its final 9 video games. Nonetheless, we all know Aaron Rodgers has owned the Bears in his profession (simply ask him, and he’ll let you know). So, if the Packers have Rodgers underneath middle and Chicago is with out Justin Fields, I am going with Inexperienced Bay minus the factors. They’re undefeated versus the unfold in opposition to the Bears in every of their final seven conferences.

Jennifer Piacenti: Giants +2.5

Are the Giants residence underdogs regardless of having a greater report than the Commanders? Yep. I’ll take the factors. The Commanders ought to have the ability to use their floor sport successfully vs. the Giants’ run protection, however Daniel Jones is proving he’s a greater than succesful QB. And, in fact, Saquon Barkley will probably be closely concerned vs. the Commanders. Washington averages solely 19.4 factors per sport, whereas the Giants common 20.5. The Giants are averaging 5.1 yards per play, whereas the Commanders are averaging 4.9. Sure, the Washington Protection is just a little higher, however their offense is way from overwhelming. Please give me the Giants plus the factors at residence in a divisional sport the place each groups have playoff hopes at stake. The Giants are 2-0 ATS as residence underdogs this 12 months.

Matt Ehalt: Steelers +1.5

The Falcons stink. The Steelers aren’t that good, however they’re higher than the Falcons. Getting factors here’s a freebie. Pittsburgh just isn’t going to lose to Marcus Mariota and the Falcons. The Falcons aren’t going to run the ball 45 occasions and beat the Steelers. Pittsburgh has receiving weapons that it will probably use to torch Atlanta’s secondary, and Kenny Pickett could make performs together with his legs. The Steelers get their fifth win Sunday in A-City.

Matt De Lima: Seahawks -4.5

Working underneath the belief that Matthew Stafford won’t play, this line looks like a no brainer. Even with Stafford, the Rams had been enjoying terribly. Now they may very well be with out Stafford, Aaron Donald and Cooper Kupp. Yikes. Often, it is the earlier 12 months’s dropping Tremendous Bowl crew that falls off. Apparently, the Rams did not get that memo. The Seahawks take this one handily, even because the street favourite.

Craig Ellenport: Texans +7.5

That is proper, I am driving with the worst crew within the NFL this week, and here is why: 1) The Browns have misplaced 4 straight street video games, and that is their third street sport within the final 4 weeks. 2) Cleveland has averaged simply 21 factors within the final three weeks; the offense will enhance now that Deshaun Watson is enjoying, but it surely’s simple to count on that Watson will probably be just a little rusty in his first sport again. 3) It is also simple to suppose the Browns are distracted this week, because of the media circus masking Watson’s return. 4) After what went down in Houston final 12 months, you have to consider there will probably be some Texans gamers further motivated to spoil Watson’s return. Cleveland is the higher crew, however all these elements make 7.5 factors a line the Browns will not cowl.

Kyle Wood: Steelers +1.5

I like what Pittsburgh has finished since its bye week. The protection is rounding into kind, rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett is turning into more and more snug within the offense, and the Steelers have wins in opposition to the Saints and Colts underneath their belt and a hard-fought loss to the Bengals to indicate for it. In the meantime, the Falcons are trending within the fallacious route, with one win of their final 4 video games. The Steelers have one of many higher run defenses within the NFL to counter Arthur Smith’s floor assault, they usually have been apt at creating turnovers, a problem that has plagued Atlanta and will swing a sport with such a good unfold.

Bill Enright: Giants +2.5

It is abundantly clear which of those two groups has been enjoying higher the previous couple of weeks. The Commanders are driving a three-game profitable streak, whereas the Giants have misplaced their final two. With each squads battling for a playoff spot, these acquainted foes acknowledge simply how a lot is at stake. Again the house canines and seize the factors with Massive Blue, who’s 2-0 when getting factors at MetLife Stadium.
