Thursday Night Football pick<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Closs says:<\/strong> Are the 49ers back or did they just play an inconsistent Bears team? I’m not entirely sure but I cannot bet against the Rams right now. They are on a 6-2 run over their last eight games and the offence looks dynamic now that it’s healthy. San Francisco is 2-6 against above-.500 teams and 1-3 in divisional games.
Pick:<\/strong> Rams +2.5<\/p>\n\n\n\nNFL Week 15 ATS picks: The early Sunday slate<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Perri says:<\/strong> This is a massive line, especially for a road team, but New York doesn’t stand a chance here. The Giants have lost eight straight games while averaging 12.3 points per game. Lamar Jackson is having an MVP-type season but the Ravens are 8-5 with a bunch of one-score losses. Coming off a bye, I expect Baltimore to leave no doubt against an awful opponent.
Pick:<\/strong> Ravens -16<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Perri says:<\/strong> It’s too late for the Bengals’ playoff hopes but I think they’ll finish the season strong. Cincinnati has averaged 33.4 points across the last five games with Joe Burrow throwing for 342.6 yards per game. The Titans, meanwhile, are one of the most unremarkable teams in football with a 2-11 ATS record. Don’t overthink this one.
Pick:<\/strong> Bengals -5<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Perri says:<\/strong> One word to describe the Panthers would be frisky. Carolina is 5-1 ATS since Bryce Young re-took the starting job, recently losing to the Chiefs, Eagles and Buccaneers by a combined 12 points. The Panthers haven’t been favoured all season but the Cowboys and Cooper Rush are a tire fire I want no part of.
Pick:<\/strong> Panthers -3<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Horrobin says:<\/strong> Kansas City has the best record in the NFL but is on a seven-game ATS losing streak. I’m still backing the Chiefs, though, given that they’ve covered this number in four of six road games. Cleveland beat Pittsburgh in a blizzard last month, but the Browns are still just 1-4 ATS in their past five games \u2014 with a -55 point differential in that span.
Pick:<\/strong> Chiefs -4<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Closs says:<\/strong> I really like the way Miami is playing right now. Tua Tagovailoa has the team on a 4-1 run, throwing 12 TDs and one interception over those five games. Meanwhile, Houston has been struggling, winning just one of its past seven games by more than three points. Give me the Dolphins on the road as they make a late-season push.
Pick:<\/strong> Dolphins +3<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Horrobin says:<\/strong> Neither of these 3-10 teams deserves to be favoured, and I want no part of laying points with the Jets. Aaron Rodgers\u2019 spiralling squad is 1-9 in its past 10 games, going just 2-8 ATS in that span. The Jaguars are only 3-7 SU in their past 10, but at least they\u2019ve gone 5-1-1 ATS since Week 7.
Pick:<\/strong> Jaguars +3.5<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Horrobin says:<\/strong> Derek Carr likely won’t play for New Orleans, which is bad news for this pick. But the Commanders did allow 34 points to a Cooper Rush-led offence two weeks ago, so I\u2019m not completely out on the Saints\u2019 offensive chances. New Orleans has covered this spread in all four games under interim head coach Darren Rizzi, while Washington has covered it only once in its past six.
Pick:<\/strong> Saints +7.5<\/p>\n\n\n\nNFL 4 p.m. slate<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Perri says:<\/strong> Buffalo has played four road games against respectable opponents (Ravens, Texans, Seahawks, Rams) and lost three of them. Josh Allen is on another planet right now but if there’s one team that can keep pace it’s the Lions. Detroit is averaging a league-best 32.1 PPG and has a +105 point differential at home.
Pick:<\/strong> Lions -2.5<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Closs says:<\/strong> The Colts aren’t pretty to watch at times but they find a way to be competitive. Indianapolis has only lost by more than a touchdown three times against the league’s elite teams (Bills, Lions, Vikings). The Broncos won last week but gave up 497 yards and 32 points to Jameis Winston and the Browns. I may look like a fool in the end but I believe cracks are forming in Denver’s foundation.
Pick:<\/strong> Colts +4<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Toman says:<\/strong> This is a big number for the Cardinals, who enter on a three-game skid and have only won by a TD or more in three of their six wins. That said, they’re the much stronger offensive team (the Patriots are scoring the second-fewest points in the NFL) and are still playing for something. Any playoff hopes begin with wins over the bottom-feeding Patriots and then Panthers in Week 16.
Pick:<\/strong> Cardinals -6<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Perri says:<\/strong> Pittsburgh is a good team but Philadelphia is a cut above. The Eagles are averaging 28.4 points during their nine-game winning streak and have Saquon Barkley putting up MVP numbers. The Steelers’ rush defence has looked suspect lately \u2014 it is 26th in defensive EPA per rush since their Week 9 bye \u2014 and I expect the Eagles’ run game to be the difference.
Pick:<\/strong> Eagles -5<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Closs says:<\/strong> Tampa Bay takes care of business when it should and has won three straight games against the Raiders, Panthers and Giants. But the story has been different against better teams. Before this run, the Bucs lost three straight to the 49ers, Chiefs and Ravens. I would group the Chargers with the second group as the 8-5 squad has covered this spread in every win.
Pick:<\/strong> Chargers -3<\/p>\n\n\n\nSunday and Monday Night NFL ATS picks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Toman says:<\/strong> Green Bay has lost twice since Week 4 and both times were to the NFC-best Lions. The Packers’ other two losses this season were by a combined seven points. They’ve been competitive in every outing, ranking top 10 in the NFL in points for and against per game. This is a tough road matchup versus the surging Seahawks but we’ve avoided the dreaded 3-point spread.
Pick:<\/strong> Packers -2.5<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Horrobin says:<\/strong> Chicago is an awful, awful road team. The Bears are 0-6 as visitors this year, with an 0-5-1 ATS record in those matchups. They haven\u2019t beaten anybody since Week 6 and have scored 20 or fewer points in six of seven games since then. This should turn into a laugher for a Vikings team riding a six-game winning streak.
Pick:<\/strong> Vikings -7<\/p>\n\n\n\n
