While the LA Rams sit atop the NFC, tied with the Chicago Bears at 9-3 after their loss to the Carolina Panthers.

NFL Week 13 betting guide: predictions

ATS picks: Get ATS predictions from our five staff writers on every game of the week.

NFL Week 13 best bets: Our staff has two picks from the Texans vs. Colts game. Find those plus two more bets for Sunday.

Upset picks: Myles Garrett is wreaking havoc on defence, and Avery Perri thinks he can lead the Browns to another upset win. He also has a prediction on one Thanksgiving Day game.

Thanksgiving prop bets: Sometimes you just have to play the hits. Jordan Horrobin is expecting Patrick Mahomes, Ja’Marr Chase, and Mark Andrews to feast on Thanksgiving.

Packers vs. Lions SGP: Overs are 4-1 in the last five games played between these teams at Ford Field. That trend should continue, with Jahmyr Gibbs providing some fireworks.

Chiefs vs. Cowboys SGP: Dallas’ defence has looked much better since its bye week, and Perri expects it to keep this game close. Prop bets on Mahomes and CeeDee Lamb round out this +310 wager.

Bengals vs. Ravens SGP: Joe Burrow is back under centre for the first time since Week 2. Can he keep Cincinnati’s season alive?

Week 13 prop bets: This week’s prop picks include a selection on a rookie quarterback, a tight end and a running back with an excellent matchup.

TD picks: Jaxon Smith-Njigba is getting MVP buzz during his historic season. Find out why Perri thinks the wide receiver is finding the end zone on Sunday.

Bills vs. Steelers picks: Josh Allen and the Bills are 2-3 on the road and face the AFC North-leading Steelers in Week 13. See why Spencer Closs thinks the QB will have a big game.

Broncos vs. Commanders SNF picks: The Broncos are coming off a bye week, and Perri expects a big game from the offence. He has a pick on the total and wide receiver Courtland Sutton.

Broncos vs. Commanders SNF parlay: Terry McLaurin is back for Washington, but there’s a receiver on Denver’s side that has Steven Psihogios’ attention in this +340 SGP.

Giants vs. Patriots MNF picks: Jaxson Dart returns for the Giants as they look to fit the role of feisty underdogs once again in what could be a low-scoring battle.

NFL Week 13 betting notes

  • Let’s talk playoff probabilities. According to The Athletic, a loss for Kansas City would drop its playoff probability south of 50%. Elsewhere, Detroit’s divisional chances will swing to 53% with a win, and 11% with a loss.
  • Since 2004, Detroit (-2.5) is 4-1 SU as a favourite and 0-15 SU as an underdog on Thanksgiving.
  • The Bengals almost certainly need to win out to make the postseason. Burrow threw for nine touchdowns in two games against the Ravens last year. But Cincinnati lost both games by a combined four points.

-> Don’t miss out — bet on NFL Week 13 here!

  • On the weekend, the Steelers host a Bills team with ugly home/away splits. Buffalo is 5-1 at Highmark Stadium (scoring 32.5 PPG) and 2-3 on the road (scoring 23.2 PPG).
  • Pittsburgh has struggled to start and has gone an incredible 61 straight games scoring seven or fewer first-quarter points, per Warren Sharp.
  • Garrett is barreling toward the single-season sack record. The Browns EDGE has 18 sacks on the season and 10 in his last four games.

Biggest spreads: Vikings vs. Seahawks (-11.5); Rams (-11) vs. Panthers; Raiders vs. Chargers (-9.5)

Highest totals: Chiefs vs. Cowboys (52); Bengals vs. Ravens (51.5); Packers vs. Lions (48.5)

NFL Week 13 Beat the Spread staff predictions: ATS picks for the 16-game slate

NFL Week 13 ATS picks

Every team is in action this week, with three American Thanksgiving games kicking off the festivities on Thursday

The Week 13 narrative: All three Thanksgiving matchups have huge playoff implications and feature spreads inside a touchdown. It should be a good time. After that, bettors have a Friday standalone game before a loaded Sunday slate.

Check out our staff’s NFL Week 13 ATS picks for predictions on every game.

NFL Week 13 ATS picks

NorthStar Bets’ Avery Perri, Jordan Horrobin, Spencer Closs, Chris Toman and Steven Psihogios offer up their NFL Week 13 ATS picks for all 15 games.

NFL odds as of 10 a.m. ET on Thursday, Nov. 27, 2025.

Thanksgiving slate

Packers vs. Lions (Thursday, Nov. 27: 1:00 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Detroit -2.5
Closs says: Green Bay’s offence can be inconsistent, but its defence remains elite week-to-week. It ranks second in total yards against while allowing the fourth fewest points per game (18.2). The Packers are coming off a dominant 23-6 win over the Vikings and are 3-1-1 on the road this season. Plus, Green Bay has a 27-13 win over the Lions in Week 1. That was some time ago, but it still shows the Packers can keep Detroit’s offence in check.

Staff picks: Perri (DET) | Horrobin (DET) | Closs (GB) | Toman (DET) | Psihogios (DET)

Chiefs vs. Cowboys (Thursday, Nov. 27: 4:30 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Kansas City -3
Perri says: Dallas’ defence has looked much better after getting a slew of reinforcements (headlined by Quinnen Williams and DeMarvion Overshown) following its Week 9 bye. All of a sudden, that unit is complementary to a Cowboys offence ranking top five in yards/game, points/game and EPA per play. I’ll back Dallas against a KC team which is 1-4 on the road.

Staff picks: Perri (DAL) | Horrobin (DAL) | Closs (KC) | Toman (DAL) | Psihogios (DAL)

-> Bet on the Thanksgiving Day tripleheader!

Bengals vs. Ravens (Thursday, Nov. 27: 8:20 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Baltimore -6.5
Perri says: Joe Burrow is back, and Lamar Jackson doesn’t appear to be at 100%. That’s the basis for this wager. The Bengals have covered this mark in four of their last five games with Joe Flacco under centre, and I like their chances of winning outright with Burrow. Cincy’s QB1 threw for nine TDs in two games against the Bengals (both losses, but by a combined four points).

Staff picks: Perri (CIN) | Horrobin (BAL) | Closs (CIN) | Toman (BAL) | Psihogios (CIN)

NFL ATS picks: Friday’s game

Bears vs. Eagles (Friday, Nov. 28: 3 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Philadelphia -7
Horrobin says: After blowing a 21-point lead to a division rival last week, Philadelphia needs to make a statement at home. The Eagles and Bears are both division leaders with 8-3 records, but Philly has a notable advantage in terms of point differential (+30 vs. -3). Philly beat the Lions and Rams by this margin at home this year, and I think more highly of those teams than of the Bears.

Staff picks: Perri (PHI) | Horrobin (PHI) | Closs (PHI) | Toman (CHI) | Psihogios (PHI)

The early Sunday slate

Jaguars vs. Titans (Sunday, Nov. 30: 1 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bet line: Jaguars -6.5
Perri says:
Jacksonville has failed to cover this number in all five of its road games, losing to the Jake Browning-led Bengals in Week 2 and the Davis Mills-led Texans in Week 10. The Jags also barely scraped by the Raiders and Cardinals, needing overtime in both of those games. Tennessee is an awful team, but it has covered this number in both games since its Week 10 bye. I’ll ride with the home divisional dog here.

Staff picks: Perri (TEN) | Horrobin (TEN) | Closs (TEN) | Toman (JAX) | Psihogios (TEN)

Falcons vs. Jets (Sunday, Nov. 30: 1 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Atlanta -2.5
Horrobin says: Atlanta beat up on a bad team on the road last week in Kirk Cousins’ return as a starter. I say the Dirty Birds run it back. The Jets are on a four-game ATS win streak, mind you, but they are 2-9 SU with the fifth-worst point differential in the NFL (-72). Even without Drake London again, the Falcons should cover this modest spread — as they have in each of their four wins this season.

Staff picks: Perri (ATL) | Horrobin (ATL) | Closs (NYJ) | Toman (NYJ) | Psihogios (NYJ)

Rams vs. Panthers (Sunday, Nov. 30: 1 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Rams -10.5
Perri says: Carolina just lost by 11 to San Francisco with Brock Purdy throwing three interceptions. Los Angeles annihilated that same 49ers team just two weeks earlier. This shouldn’t be much of a contest. The delta between Matthew Stafford and Bryce Young may be as big as the geographic distance between these teams’ stadiums.

Staff picks: Perri (LAR) | Horrobin (LAR) | Closs (LAR) | Toman (CAR) | Psihogios (LAR)

Saints vs. Dolphins (Sunday, Nov. 30: 1 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Dolphins -5.5
Horrobin says: I’m thrilled to fade the lifeless Saints (3-8 ATS) on the road against a rested Dolphins team (6-5 ATS) that’s coming off a bye. New Orleans has only surpassed the 21-point threshold once all season, while Miami is averaging 21.8 PPG since Week 2. Let’s use the Falcons as a yardstick, given that both teams faced Atlanta in the past five weeks: The Saints lost by 14 and the Dolphins won by 24.

Staff picks: Perri (MIA) | Horrobin (MIA) | Closs (MIA) | Toman (MIA) | Psihogios (NO)

Cardinals vs. Buccaneers (Sunday, Nov. 30: 1 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Tampa Bay -3
Closs says: The Bucs have been victims of one of the toughest schedules in the NFL. They have played eight teams currently over .500 and have a 3-5 record. The good news is they’re 3-0 against teams under .500, and that’s what Arizona is. The Cardinals are 3-8 and will be without Kyler Murray and possibly Marvin Harrison Jr. I’m confident backing Tampa at home against any team that isn’t a contender at this point.

Staff picks: Perri (TB) | Horrobin (TB) | Closs (TB) | Toman (TB) | Psihogios (ARI)

49ers vs. Browns (Sunday, Nov. 30: 1 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: 49ers -4.5
Perri says: The Browns won last week, and they have a few things working in their favour this weekend. Cleveland has a slight rest advantage, battling a San Francisco team which had to travel East immediately after playing on Monday Night Football. The other is Myles Garrett, who has an otherworldly 13 sacks in his last four games. I expect his defence to keep this game close.

Staff picks: Perri (CLE) | Horrobin (CLE) | Closs (SF) | Toman (SF) | Psihogios (SF)

Texans vs. Colts (Sunday, Nov. 30: 1 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Indianapolis -4.5
Horrobin says: Houston has been shaky on the road this season, going 1-4 ATS and failing to cover a +4.5 spread in any of its three games as a road dog. Conversely, the Colts are 4-1 ATS at home and have the NFL’s second-best point differential overall (+112). Indy, which ranks in the top 10 in scoring offence and defence, should prove to be the better team in this divisional clash.

Staff picks: Perri (IND) | Horrobin (IND) | Closs (IND) | Toman (HOU) | Psihogios (HOU)

NFL 4 p.m. slate

Vikings vs. Seahawks (Sunday, Nov. 30: 4:05 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Seattle -11.5
Closs says: J.J. McCarthy is questionable, but he hasn’t been good even when healthy. He has six touchdowns this season and 10 interceptions with a 2-4 record as the starter. Seattle, on the other hand, looks legit. Sam Darnold is having a solid year, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba is on pace for 2,000+ receiving yards. This is a large spread, but I feel good taking the Seahawks at home over a Vikings squad full of unanswered questions.

Staff picks: Perri (SEA) | Horrobin (SEA) | Closs (SEA) | Toman (MIN) | Psihogios (MIN)

Bills vs. Steelers (Sunday, Nov. 30: 4:25 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Bills -3.5
Perri says: Mike Tomlin’s seat is heating up, but he’s done well in quieting the noise historically. The Steelers are 13-4 ATS as home underdogs following a loss in his tenure. Buffalo is 2-3 away from Highmark Stadium while averaging 23.2 PPG. That’s nearly 10 points less than at home. On top of that, the Bills are dealing with injuries to both starting tackles.

Staff picks: Perri (PIT) | Horrobin (PIT) | Closs (BUF) | Toman (BUF) | Psihogios (BUF)

Raiders vs. Chargers (Sunday, Nov. 30: 4:25 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Los Angeles -9.5
Closs says: The Raiders are on a five-game losing streak and have failed to cover this spread in six of nine losses this season. That includes losing by 11 at home to the Chargers in Week 2. L.A. could also be getting a shot in the arm with the return of rookie running back Omarion Hampton. He would give the Chargers another option in the backfield to complement Kimani Vidal. Las Vegas is 1-4 on the road and 0-3 in divisional games this season.

Staff picks: Perri (LAC) | Horrobin (LAC) | Closs (LAC) | Toman (LAC) | Psihogios (LV)

Sunday and Monday Night NFL Week 13 ATS picks

Broncos vs. Commanders (Sunday, Nov. 30: 8:20 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Denver -6
Closs says: The Broncos are 9-2 but have failed to cover this spread in five of their past six wins. In fact, five of those wins came by three points or fewer. The offence is right around average and often can’t score enough to cover these lofty spreads. The defence is legit, so I’ll back the Broncos to win, but I think Marcus Mariota can do just enough to keep Washington competitive at home.

Staff picks: Perri (WSH) | Horrobin (DEN) | Closs (WSH) | Toman (DEN) | Psihogios (DEN)

Giants vs. Patriots (Monday, Dec. 1: 8:15 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: New England -7
Horrobin says: The Giants haven’t won since Oct. 9, but they have fashioned a three-game ATS win streak with a trio of one-score losses. Jameis Winston gives New York a layer of exciting unpredictability that should always keep a backdoor cover in play. The Patriots are 1-3 ATS in their past four games and will be missing a pair of starting offensive linemen, which is concerning against the Giants’ vaunted pass rush.

Staff picks: Perri (NE) | Horrobin (NYG) | Closs (NE) | Toman (NYG) | Psihogios (NYG)

NFL ATS picks: Week 12 + season records: Closs: 7-5-2 (85-88-5) | Psihogios: 6-6-2 (87-86-5) | Toman: 7-5-2 (83-90-5) | Perri: 6-6-2 (84-89-5) | Horrobin: 9-3-2 (83-90-5)

NFL Week 13 staff best bets: Back Dolphins to keep up winning ways, Nico Collins to shine

NFL Week 13 best bets

The Miami Dolphins look to win their third straight game when they battle the downtrodden New Orleans Saints on Sunday.

The Week 13 narrative: The Dolphins are doing their best to keep up in the AFC East. They have a good shot to get a step closer to .500 against the 2-9 Saints. Elsewhere, we have two picks from the Houston Texans vs. the Indianapolis Colts game.

Check out our NFL Week 13 staff best bets for our favourite picks this weekend.

-> Join NorthStar Bets to start betting on the NFL

NFL Week 13 best bets

These NFL Week 13 best bets were provided by NorthStar Bets writers Jordan Horrobin and Spencer Closs.

Dolphins -6 (-110): I’m still annoyed that Tyler Shough’s Saints won a 17-7 rock fight in Carolina three weeks ago. They had no business doing that.

But I won’t let it deter me from fading New Orleans (3-8-0 ATS) on the road again, this time against a rested Dolphins team (6-5-0 ATS) that is capable of scoring points.

From Week 2 onward, Miami has averaged 21.8 points, scoring 30+ points in two of its past four games. New Orleans has only surpassed the 21-point threshold once all season.

The Saints just lost by two TDs in Atlanta last week, while the Dolphins were resting at home.

Keep in mind that that’s the same Falcons team that Miami beat by 24 points in Atlanta last month.

-Horrobin

Texans vs. Colts ATS prediction

Colts -4.5 (-114): Having home-field advantage last week helped the Texans knock off the Bills as underdogs. But now it’s Houston’s turn to hit the road, and that’s a different story entirely.

The Texans are 1-4 ATS on the road this season, failing to cover this spread in all three of their games as road dogs.

The Colts, meanwhile, are 4-1 ATS (5-0 SU) at home this season. And they have the second-best point differential in the NFL (+112).

-> Visit NorthStar Bets for all NFL Week 13 betting markets

Last week, as underdogs in Kansas City, the Colts couldn’t hold onto a two-score lead in the fourth quarter. But returning home to Lucas Oil Stadium should help them stay composed and handle business in a critical AFC South showdown.

Neither C.J. Stroud nor Davis Mills scares me in a matchup against an Indy team that ranks in the top 10 in scoring on both sides of the ball.

-Horrobin

Cardinals vs. Buccaneers pick

Buccaneers -3 (-104): This should be a nice spot for Tampa Bay to bounce back.

The Bucs have lost three straight, but those losses should be taken with a grain of salt.

  • Week 10: 28-23 loss vs. New England
  • Week 11: 44-32 loss @ Buffalo
  • Week 12: 34-7 loss @ L.A. Rams

Those are a few of the top teams in the NFL and legit Super Bowl contenders. The other two losses on Tampa’s record came against the Eagles and Lions.

-> Bet on Cardinals vs. Buccaneers

The Bucs have been the victim of a tough schedule, but are a perfect 3-0 against teams under .500 this season.

That brings me to the 3-8 Cardinals. They rank in the bottom half for scoring on both sides of the ball and have lost three straight. They should struggle on the road in Week 13.

Closs

NFL Week 13 best bets: Player props

Nico Collins over 66.5 receiving yards (-115): Collins is quietly having another strong season with the Texans. He is averaging 5.2 receptions and 69.7 yards per game.

He’s been specifically good lately, going 3-1 against this wager over the last four games while averaging 89.5 yards per contest.

-> Bet on Collins vs. the Colts!

The Colts have been a tough out for any team in 2025, but not because of their secondary.

Indianapolis allows the fifth most passing yards against (245.4) and has given up 100+ yards to WR1s in back-to-back weeks.

  • Drake London in Week 12: six catches, 104 yards.
  • Rashee Rice in Week 12: eight catches, 141 yards.

Collins is cut from the same cloth and should do work against a slacking defence.

NFL Week 12 betting guide

We’re reaching crunch time of the NFL season as the playoff picture begins to unfold.

Week 12 at a glance: Several powerhouses, including the Kansas City Chiefs, Baltimore Ravens and Detroit Lions, are currently on the outside looking in. All three are favoured to pick up wins this week, though, with Kansas City hosting the red-hot Indianapolis Colts.

NFL Week 12 betting guide: predictions

ATS picks: Get ATS predictions from our five staff writers on every game of the week.

NFL Week 12 best bets: Two ATS picks, one over/under bet, and two player props (ft. Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Darnell Mooney) make up this week’s best bets.

Upset picks: The Cleveland Browns are in a sticky QB situation, but they still have Myles Garrett. Avery Perri expects the star EDGE rusher to take over against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Week 12 prop bets: One wide receiver (Justin Jefferson), one running back (Quinshon Judkins), and one tight end (Trey McBride) are the focus of these NFL prop bets.

TD picks: The Philadelphia Eagles’ offence is struggling, but Perri thinks Saquon Barkley can take advantage of a nice matchup to score.

Eagles vs. Cowboys SGP: Look for Jalen Hurts and George Pickens to shine in this +330 SGP for the divisional matchup on Sunday afternoon.

Buccaneers vs. Rams SNF picks: There are some star wide receivers on both sides of this matchup. Jordan Horrobin is fading one while backing another.

Buccaneers vs. Rams SNF parlay: Can Matthew Stafford keep up his MVP-calibre numbers in prime time? Against a Tampa Bay defence that is stronger against the run, our Spencer Closs says yes.

Panthers vs. 49ers MNF picks: For the first time since the 2022 midseason trade, Christian McCaffrey will face his former team. It probably won’t go very well for the visiting Panthers.

Panthers vs. 49ers SGP: George Kittle is a different beat with Brock Purdy under centre. He factors into this +255 SGP, which also features an over/under pick.

NFL Week 12 betting notes

  • Baltimore’s defence allowed 35.4 PPG in the first five games of the season (1-4 SU). It has allowed 14.8 PPG in the five games since (4-1 SU).
  • Shedeur Sanders will be the 18th QB to make his first career start in the regular season for the Cleveland Browns since 1999. The prior 17 quarterbacks are winless in their debut, per Action Network.

  • The Carolina Panthers are 6-3 ATS as underdogs this year and face a San Francisco 49ers team that is 1-11 ATS following a win since the start of last season.
  • Opposite to San Fran is Detroit. The Lions have won and covered in 13 straight games following a loss. That includes three instances this season where they won by an average of 22.0 points.
  • Matthew Stafford remains the MVP favourite heading into Week 12. He’s thrown a league-best 27 passing TDs to just two interceptions. The Rams are averaging 27.8 PPG during their five-game winning streak.

Biggest spreads: Seahawks (-13.5) vs. Titans; Jets vs. Ravens (-13.5); Giants vs. Lions (-10.5)

NFL Week 12 Beat the Spread staff predictions: ATS predictions for the 14-game slate

NFL Week 12 ATS picks

There are some big spreads on the board during this weekend’s NFL slate.

The Week 12 narrative: The Seattle Seahawks, Detroit Lions and Baltimore Ravens are all favoured by double digits. Our staff has split opinions on how those games will go, but are largely aligned on the Cleveland Browns and San Francisco 49ers.

NFL Week 12 ATS picks

NorthStar Bets’ Avery Perri, Jordan Horrobin, Spencer Closs, Chris Toman and Steven Psihogios offer up their NFL Week 12 ATS picks for all 15 games.

NFL odds as of 10 a.m. ET on Thursday, Nov. 20, 2025.

Thursday Night Football pick

Bills vs. Texans (Thursday, Nov. 20: 8:15 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Buffalo -6
Closs says: Buffalo isn’t the same team on the road. It lost as the away favourite in Week 6 against the Falcons and again in Week 10 against the Dolphins. The Texans have the NFL’s best defence, allowing the fewest yards and points per game. The Bills should struggle to score, making this high spread less attainable. I’ll side with Houston at home.

Staff picks: Perri (BUF) | Horrobin (HOU) | Closs (HOU) | Toman (BUF) | Psihogios (BUF)

NFL ATS picks: The early Sunday slate

Colts vs. Chiefs (Sunday, Nov. 23: 1:00 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Kansas City -3.5
Horrobin says: Coming off a bye, Indianapolis should be able to at least keep this close. Both of the Colts’ losses this season have come in one-score games, and they’re top 10 in EPA on both sides of the ball since Week 5 (according to RBSDM.com). The Chiefs have lost back-to-back games outright as favourites.

Staff picks: Perri (KC) | Horrobin (IND) | Closs (KC) | Toman (IND) | Psihogios (IND)

Vikings vs. Packers (Sunday, Nov. 23: 1 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Green Bay -6.5
Horrobin says: Green Bay lost close in both matchups against Minnesota last season, but that was with Sam Darnold at the helm for the Vikes. Now it’s work-in-progress QB J.J. McCarthy under centre, and he doesn’t scare me one bit. McCarthy has seven interceptions and a 50.8% completion rate over his past four games, and three of those matchups were at home. Green Bay has covered this number in three of five at Lambeau.

Staff picks: Perri (GB) | Horrobin (GB) | Closs (MIN) | Toman (MIN) | Psihogios (MIN)

Patriots vs. Bengals (Sunday, Nov. 23: 1 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: New England -7
Horrobin says: Joe Burrow might play on Sunday, but no matter what, he won’t be suiting up on defence. And that’s where Cincinnati needs help most, as the Bengals rank dead last in points and yards allowed. New England is on an eight-game winning streak and is 6-2 ATS in that span. Drake Maye is the NFL’s passing leader, and the Pats’ defence is top 10 in both scoring and total yardage.

Staff picks: Perri (CIN) | Horrobin (NE) | Closs (CIN) | Toman (NE) | Psihogios (NE)

Giants vs. Lions (Sunday, Nov. 23: 1 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Detroit -11
Perri says: Detroit has won and covered 13 straight games following a loss. That includes three instances this year, which it won by an average of 22.0 points. The Lions are also back home, where they’ve been decimating teams. I can’t picture the shorthanded Giants putting up any sort of fight against Dan Campbell’s squad.

Staff picks: Perri (DET) | Horrobin (NYG) | Closs (DET) | Toman (DET) | Psihogios (DET)

-> Bet on the Detroit Lions at NorthStar Bets

Jets vs. Ravens (Sunday, Nov. 23: 1 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Baltimore -13.5
Closs says: The Ravens should be able to run all over the Jets. New York’s defence gives up 130.9 rushing yards per game, while Baltimore has averaged 168 rushing yards in the two games since Lamar Jackson returned. That was also against two of the toughest defences in the NFL (Browns, Vikings). The Ravens should have a lot of possession time in this game while running up the score.

Staff picks: Perri (BAL) | Horrobin (BAL) | Closs (BAL) | Toman (NYJ) | Psihogios (NYJ)

Steelers vs. Bears (Sunday, Nov. 23: 1 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Chicago -3
Horrobin says: Stylistically, I like this matchup for Chicago. The Bears have the second-most rushing yards this season and should be able to pound the rock against the Steelers, whose defence ranks 30th in EPA per rush since Week 5. Chicago is 7-1 SU and 6-2 ATS in its past eight games, while Pittsburgh is 1-3 ATS on the road.

Staff picks: Perri (PIT) | Horrobin (CHI) | Closs (CHI) | Toman (CHI) | Psihogios (PIT)

-> Make Week 12 ATS picks at NorthStar Bets

Serahawks vs. Titans (Sunday, Nov. 23: 1 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Seattle -13.5
Perri says: I won’t put much stock into Seattle’s loss last week. The Seahawks out-gained the Rams by 165 yards and had 15 more minutes of possession but were sunk by Sam Darnold’s four interceptions. Tennessee is nothing like L.A., sitting at 1-9 with the league’s worst point differential (-130). Seattle has the second-best point differential (+101) and should rebound emphatically.

Staff picks: Perri (SEA) | Horrobin (TEN) | Closs (TEN) | Toman (SEA) | Psihogios (SEA)

NFL 4 p.m. slate

Browns vs. Raiders (Sunday, Nov. 23: 4:05 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Raiders -4
Horrobin says: I don’t expect Shedeur Sanders to be great in his first NFL start, but I do expect Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski to make Sanders’ life as easy as possible. The main reason I like Cleveland is its No. 2-ranked total defence, which is easily the best unit for either side. The Raiders are 3-6-1 ATS overall and have only surpassed 20 points in one of their past six games.

Staff picks: Perri (CLE) | Horrobin (CLE) | Closs (CLE) | Toman (CLE) | Psihogios (CLE)

-> Bet on this weekend’s NFL action at NorthStar Bets

Jaguars vs. Cardinals (Sunday, Nov. 23: 4:05 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Jaguars -3
Perri says: Jacoby Brissett has played well for Arizona in Kyler Murray’s absence, posting a 10:3 TD-to-INT ratio while averaging 314 passing yards per game. He’s 3-2 ATS as a starter and should be able to move the ball against Jacksonville’s defence. The Jags just swarmed a depleted Chargers o-line, but they had allowed 100 points in the three games before that.

Staff picks: Perri (ARI) | Horrobin (ARI) | Closs (ARI) | Toman (JAX) | Psihogios (JAX)

Falcons vs. Saints (Sunday, Nov. 23: 4:25 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: New Orleans -1.5
Perri says: Atlanta has lost three straight heartbreakers and is now down Michael Penix Jr. (ACL). But I still don’t think that warrants New Orleans being favoured in any capacity. The Saints are 2-8 and have the fourth-worst point differential (-95) in football. The Saints’ defence ranks 26th in pass rush win rate, so Kirk Cousins should have enough time to operate.

Staff picks: Perri (ATL) | Horrobin (ATL) | Closs (NO) | Toman (ATL) | Psihogios (NO)

Eagles vs. Cowboys (Sunday, Nov. 16: 4:25 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Philadelphia -3.5
Horrobin says: The Eagles have been a frustrating watch for much of the season, but they’ve covered in four straight and are 7-3 ATS on the year. They covered this number against the Cowboys earlier in the season and won last year’s matchups by a combined 62 points. Dallas has the type of defence (read: terrible) that might actually kick Philly’s offence into gear.

Staff picks: Perri (DAL) | Horrobin (PHI) | Closs (DAL) | Toman (DAL) | Psihogios (DAL)

-> Bet on Sunday & Monday Night Football

Sunday and Monday Night NFL Week 12 ATS picks

Buccaneers vs. Rams (Sunday, Nov. 23: 8:20 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: Los Angeles -6.5
Closs says: The Rams are serious contenders. They rank top six in scoring on both sides of the ball and are on a five-game win streak. During that time, they’ve held opponents to 13.0 points per game while scoring 29.8. Tampa Bay has lost back-to-back games and doesn’t have the defence to keep pace in this matchup.

Staff picks: Perri (LAR) | Horrobin (LAR) | Closs (LAR) | Toman (LAR) | Psihogios (LAR)

Panthers vs. 49ers (Monday, Nov. 24: 8:15 p.m. ET)

NorthStar Bets line: San Francisco -7
Perri says: It only took 12 weeks, but the 49ers’ offence is finally healthy (sans Brandon Aiyuk, who has yet to debut). Brocky Purdy threw three touchdowns in a 41-22 win over the Cardinals last week, and I expect more fireworks against a Panthers defence ranking 24th in EPA per play.

Staff picks: Perri (SF) | Horrobin (SF) | Closs (SF) | Toman (SF) | Psihogios (SF)

NFL ATS picks: Week 11 + season records: Closs: 3-9-3 (78-83-3) | Psihogios: 7-5-3 (81-80-3) | Toman: 7-5-3 (76-85-3) | Perri: 6-6-3 (77-84-3) | Horrobin: 7-5-3 (74-87-3)

World Series odds and 2026 betting favourites: Dodgers are favoured, Blue Jays sit at +1,500

world series odds

The Los Angeles Dodgers are looking to three-peat in the World Series after beating the Toronto Blue Jays in a thrilling Game 7.

The latest: The Dodgers, returning their entire starting rotation, are favoured to repeat as champions. What might come as a surprise is that the Jays have the third-shortest odds among American League teams behind the New York Yankees and Houston Astros; their odds did not change after signing starting pitcher Dylan Cease to a $210 million contract.

  • Matthew Stafford (+275) is tied atop the MVP odds board after a heroic three-week stretch. The QB has thrown for 13 touchdowns with no interceptions and has a 25-to-2 TD:INT ratio this season.
  • Mahomes is 6-1 in Denver and 11-1 against AFC West teams coming off extended rest. The Broncos are on a seven-game winning streak and own the league’s No. 3 scoring defence.

  • The Green Bay Packers are touchdown favourites this week … but are 0-5 ATS this year when favoured by four-plus points. The Packers are averaging just 10.0 PPG during their two-game losing streak.
  • Williams is heating up, but faces a new task: Beating divisional opponents. The Bears’ signal caller is 1-7 SU in eight starts against the NFC North, losing to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 1.

Highest totals: Cowboys vs. Raiders (50); Bengals vs. Steelers (49); Seahawks vs. Rams (48.5)
