      Betting Recap - Week 12
      Joe Williams

      Overall Notes



      The largest underdogs to win straight up

      49ers (+5.5, ML +195) at Rams, 23-20
      Falcons (+3.5, ML +155) vs. Raiders, 43-6
      Titans (+3, ML +125) at Colts, 45-26
      Washington (+2.5, ML +125) at Cowboys (Thu.), 41-16

      The largest favorites to cover

      Saints (-17) at Broncos, 31-3
      Packers (-8) vs. Bears, 41-25
      Dolphins (-7.5) at Jets, 20-3
      Bills (-4) vs. Chargers, 27-17

      The Biggest Disappointment of the Week

      The Kansas City Chiefs-Tampa Bay Buccaneers game was a bummer if you bet the favorite. The Chiefs (-3.5) fired out to a 17-0 lead after 15 minutes, as QB Patrick Mahomes and WR Tyreke Hill combined for over 200 yards -- in the first quarter. Things settled down a bit in the second quarter, as the Buccaneers scored the only touchdown in the quarter to slice the K.C. lead to 20-7 at the break.

      In the third quarter, the Chiefs flipped the script, and the Chiefs were leading 27-10. The Chiefs were looking unstoppable, and Mahomes and the pass offense was flirting with 500 before the end of the game. However, the Bucs certainly gave the Chiefs a scare late, showing absolutely no quit.

      In the final 15 minutes, the Buccaneers outscored the Chiefs 14-0, and the Chiefs ended up with a 27-24 win, and the Bucs ended up picking up the backdoor cover. The way this one started out, that never looked possible.

      The Biggest Disappointment of the Week - Part II

      The game between the Carolina Panthers-Minnesota Vikings was a bummer on both sides. If you had Carolina on the moneyline (+125), it was a tough pill to swallow. If you had Under (50), it was equally disappointing.

      The Panthers picked up a pair fumble recoveries and touchdowns, both by CB Jeremy Chinn, as the Panthers took a 21-10 lead into the final quarter. Under bettors still looked to be in good shape, however.

      The two teams exchanged field goals, but the score was 24-13 with just under six minutes to go before the Vikings struck for a touchdown and two-point conversion to cut the lead to 24-21 with 5:31 left in regulation. PK Joey Slye booted a field goal from 21 yards out to push their lead to six with 1:51 to play.

      Under bettors were still OK, as were Panthers ML bettors, until QB Kirk Cousins led the team down the field and hit WR Chad Beebe for a 10-yard touchdown with :46 left, giving the Vikings a lead. Carolina ML bettors still had a shot, but a field goal at the horn went well wide to the left.

      Total Recall

      The lowest total on the board for the Sunday slate was the New Orleans Saints-Denver Broncos (36.5), and that total was reminiscent of the 1980's and 1990's when we would routinely see totals in the 30's. Now, it's an extreme rarity.

      The Broncos had their top three quarterbacks on the Reserve/COVID-19 list, so they recalled WR Kendall Hinton from the practice squad. The converted wide receiver played quarterback at Wake Forest, and he was summoned to make his first NFL start. It ended how you would imagine. He completed just one of his nine pass attempts, and was brutal. But it was an extremely unfair situation for him to be put into.

      The Saints moved to 2-0 with QB Taysom Hill under center, as he ran for two more touchdowns to win it 31-3, covering a 17-point number on the road, too.

      The highest total on Sunday was the Chiefs-Buccaneers game (56.5), but the over was never really threatened, as it took late heroics by the Bucs just to get it to a total of 51 points.

      In the one primetime game, the Chicago Bears-Green Bay Packers (44), the game easily went over, and the Pack nearly took care of it all by themselves. We still have Monday's Seattle Seahawks-Philadelphia Eagles (49) game, and Tuesday's Baltimore Ravens-Pittsburgh Steelers (41.5) still left to be played this week, both in primetime.

      So far this season the under is 22-14 (61.1%) across 36 primetime games. In 2019, the 'under' went 31-17-1 (64.6%) during primetime games.

      Looking Ahead to Week 13

      New Orleans Saints at Atlanta Falcons (Sunday, 1 p.m. ET)


      The Saints and Falcons square off for the second time in three weeks. New Orleans picked up a 24-9 win in Week 11 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in NOLA, covering a 3.5-point number as the 'under' (49.5) was never in doubt. Hill made his first start in place of the injured QB Drew Brees (ribs) in that one, and he proved all of the doubters wrong. The Saints are on a eight-game winning streak, and they have covered four in a row with four straight 'under' results. For the Falcons, they routed the Raiders 43-6 on Sunday, and they're 3-1 SU/ATS over the past four, with just that loss to the Falcons in the L column. The 'under' is 4-1 across the past five for ATL, too.

      As far as trends, the Saints are 4-1 ATS in the past five trips to Atlanta, and 5-1 ATS in the past six meetings overall. The 'under' is 4-0 in the past four in this series, and 8-3 in the past 11 meetings overall.

      Indianapolis Colts at Houston Texans (Sunday, 1 p.m. ET)

      The Colts were shellacked at home by the Titans, 45-26, as the 'over' (51.5) easily connected. Meanwhile, the Texans registered a 41-25 win in the early game on Thanksgiving, covering a three-point number on the road as the 'over' (52.5) cashed.

      Houston has won back-to-back games for the first time this season, and they have covered a season-high three in a row after a 1-6 ATS start to the season. Indy has won each of its past two road trips, a 34-17 win in Tennessee on Nov. 12, and a 41-21 win at Detroit on Nov. 1 in Week 8. The 'over' is 3-0 in the past three for Indy, and 6-1 across the past seven for the Colts.

      Los Angeles Rams at Arizona Cardinals (Sunday, 4:05 p.m. ET)

      The Rams are looking to bounce back after a disappointing 23-20 loss at home to the 49ers in Week 12. The 'under' (44.5) held on for L.A. The 'under' (50.5) also cashed in a disappointing 20-17 loss for the Cardinals in New England, so both teams should enter this one in a rather foul mood.

      L.A. is 9-1 ATS across the past 10 games following a non-cover, and 6-1-1 ATS in the past eight following a straight-up loss. They're also 11-5 ATS in the past 16 on the road. For Arizona, they're 5-1-1 ATS in the past seven as an underdog, while going 3-1-1 ATS in the past five inside the division. However, they have failed to cover the past four, and they're 2-5-1 ATS in the past eight following a straight-up loss.

      In this series, the road team is 8-2-1 ATS in the past 11 meetings, and the favorite is 6-0-1 ATS in the past seven. The Rams have also covered five straight trips to Arizona, and they're 5-0-1 ATS in the past six meetings in the series. The 'under' is 11-5 in the past 16 meetings in Arizona.

      Denver Broncos at Kansas City Chiefs (Sunday, 8:20 p.m. ET)

      The Broncos will hit the road for Sunday Night Football after hitting rock-bottom on Sunday. It was a rough situation for the Broncos to be in, forcing to start a practice-squad receiver at quarterback after losing their top three signal callers. They're expected to have at least one quarterback ready for next week, although it's uncertain who.

      The Chiefs will have Mahomes, and that's why they're at two-touchdown favorite to open. The Chiefs are 4-1-1 ATS in the past six against losing teams, and 9-2-1 ATS in the past 12 at home. They're also 14-5-1 ATS in the past 20 overall, although, as mentioned above, they just missing a cover in Tampa last week. In this series, the Broncos are 1-9 ATS in the past 10 meetings, and the 'over' is 3-1-1 in the past five battles at Arrowhead in this series.

        NFL odds Week 13: Opening Lines, Sharp Money & Line Movement
        Patrick Everson

        The Rams' Aaron Donald and the Cardinals' Kyler Murray will get reacquainted in a Week 13 matchup that has both teams needing a win. The SuperBook opened Los Angeles a 2.5-point road favorite.

        NFL Week 12 still has two matchups left, on Monday night and Tuesday night, but NFL Week 13 odds stop for no one and are already getting some action. Among the noteworthy matchups: an AFC clash between the Cleveland Browns and Tennessee Titans, and an NFC West battle pitting the Los Angeles Rams against the Arizona Cardinals.

        The SuperBook's John Murray provided insights on NFL Week 13 opening lines and early line movement, sharp money and public betting.

        Teams on bye: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Carolina Panthers

        Cowboys at Ravens Odds
        Opening line
        OFF, Over/Under OFF

        Why the line moved
        This game was supposed to be the Week 13 Thursday nighter, but the Ravens-Steelers Week 12 game – originally set for Thanksgiving night – won't be played until Tuesday, due to Baltimore's COVID issues. So Week 13 will have two Monday games, the Cowboys-Ravens at 5 p.m. ET, followed by the regularly scheduled Bills-49ers contest.

        Ravens QB Lamar Jackson's Week 13 status is uncertain due to his positive COVID test, so The SuperBook is not posting this game until there's more clarity.


        Lions at Bears Odds
        Opening line
        Bears -3, Over/Under TBA

        Why the line moved
        The Lions tumbled to Houston 41-25 at home on Thanksgiving and on Saturday fired coach Matt Patricia. On Sunday night, the Bears got thumped at Green Bay 41-25. The SuperBook opened Lions-Bears at Chicago -3 and quickly scooted to -3.5 early Sunday evening. Per standard operating procedure, the game then came off the board once the Bears-Packers Sunday night meeting began, and the line will go back up Monday morning.


        Bengals at Dolphins Odds
        Opening line
        Dolphins -11.5, Over/Under 43

        Why the line moved
        Miami had no issues with the still-winless New York Jets, winning 20-3 on the road Sunday, while Cincinnati was respectable, minus Joe Burrow, in a 19-17 home loss to the New York Giants. Still, the Dolphins are not the Giants, and as such, The SuperBook opened Miami -11.5. There was no line movement through Sunday night.


        Colts at Texans Odds
        Opening line
        Texans +2.5, Over/Under 55

        Why the line moved
        Indianapolis took a beating at the hands of Tennessee in Week 12, losing 45-26 at home Sunday. Meanwhile, Houston is coming off a mini-bye after bouncing host Detroit 41-25 on Thanksgiving.

        "We opened Colts -2.5 and are still there," Murray said Sunday night. "The Colts' defense got torched in the first half today. We're going to keep a close eye on the Colts' injury report. They were missing some key guys on defense today, and it showed."


        Jaguars at Vikings Odds
        Opening line
        Vikings -9.5, Over/Under 51

        Why the line moved
        Minnesota's offense had turnovers on consecutive plays Sunday, and both were returned for touchdowns, yet the Vikings still managed a 28-27 victory over visiting Carolina, winning on a last-minute touchdown. Jacksonville kept it interesting as a touchdown underdog to Cleveland, losing 27-25 at home. The SuperBook opened the Vikes -9.5, and there was no line movement Sunday night.


        Washington at Steelers Odds
        Opening line
        Steelers -10, Over/Under TBA

        Why the line moved
        Pittsburgh still has Week 12 work to do, and in fact can't do that work until Tuesday in the multi-delayed matchup against Baltimore. Washington will be much more rested, coming off a stunning 41-16 road wipeout of Dallas on Thanksgiving. The SuperBook opened the Steelers -10, and there was no line movement Sunday night.


        Raiders at Jets Odds
        Opening line
        Jets +8.5, Over/Under 46.5

        Why the line moved
        Las Vegas laid a fat Week 12 egg in Atlanta, getting boat raced 43-6, but winless New York (0-11 SU) could be the cure. The hapless Jets fell to Miami 20-3. However, it appears early bettors were much less impressed by the Raiders' awful showing, as this line is already down a point to -7.5 Sunday night.


        Saints at Falcons Odds
        Opening line
        Falcons +3, Over/Under 47.5

        Why the line moved
        New Orleans is 2-0 in the Taysom Hill era, with at least another two games to go before Drew Brees (ribs) can get back under center. The Saints coasted to a 31-3 road victory over the quarterback-less Broncos, while Atlanta pounded visiting Las Vegas 43-6. New Orleans opened -3 at The SuperBook, and the only movement Sunday night was a price adjustment to Saints -3 (-120).


        Browns at Titans Odds
        Opening line
        Titans -4, Over/Under 53

        Why the line moved
        Tennessee waltzed over host Indianapolis 45-26 in Week 12, while Cleveland hung on for a 27-25 road win over Jacksonville. The Titans are atop the AFC South at 8-3, and the Browns (8-3) occupy the top wild-card slot.

        "We opened this one Titans -4 and are still there," Murray said Sunday evening. "Incredible performance by the Titans today. I think the public will be pretty heavily on them here."


        Giants at Seahawks Odds
        Opening line
        Seahawks -9, Over/Under TBA

        Why the line moved
        Seattle still has Week 12 work to do, traveling to face Philadelphia in the Monday nighter, while New York squeaked by host Cincinnati 19-17 Sunday. The SuperBook opened the Seahawks -9, and there was no movement through Sunday night.


        Rams at Cardinals Odds
        Opening line
        Cardinals +2.5, Over/Under 49

        Why the line moved
        Los Angeles rallied from a 17-3 deficit against visiting San Francisco on Sunday, but ultimately lost 23-20 on a final-seconds field goal. Arizona went to New England as a short favorite and left with a 20-17 loss, also on a final-seconds field goal.

        "We opened Rams -2.5 and are still there," Murray said. "The Rams will be a fairly public side, but I expect to see bets come in both ways here. The Cardinals really gave that game away today to New England. Both teams need this game to keep pace in the playoff race."


        Eagles at Packers Odds
        Opening line
        Packers -7, Over/Under TBA

        Why the line moved
        Green Bay rolled over Chicago 41-25 in the Week 12 Sunday nighter, while Philly is set to host Seattle in the Monday nighter. Eagles-Packers opened Green Bay -7 at The SuperBook and had no movement before coming off the board once the Packers kicked off against the Bears.

        "There could be significant line movement either way, depending on how those games play out," Murray said, alluding to the Week 12 Sunday and Monday night games. "Having said that, we will need the Eagles."


        Patriots at Chargers Odds
        Opening line
        Pick, Over/Under 48.5

        Why the line moved
        New England nabbed a last-second 20-17 home win over Houston in Week 12, while Los Angeles fell 27-17 on the road against Buffalo. The line moved shortly after going up Sunday, from pick 'em to Chargers -1.


        Broncos at Chiefs Odds
        Opening line
        Chiefs -14, Over/Under 49

        Why the line moved
        Kansas City led Tampa Bay 17-0 in the first quarter and 27-10 midway through the third quarter, then hung on for a 27-24 road win in Week 12. Due to COVID protocols, Denver had no actual quarterbacks available, elevating practice-squad wideout Kendall Hinton, and it showed in a 31-3 home loss to New Orleans.

        Presumably, the Broncos will have starting QB Drew Lock back on the field in Week 13, though it might not matter much against the defending Super Bowl champion. The Chiefs opened -14 at The SuperBook and actually ticked down a notch to -13.5 Sunday night.


        Bills at 49ers Odds
        Opening line
        49ers +3, Over/Under 47.5

        Why the line moved
        San Francisco notched a surprising 23-20 road victory over the Los Angeles Rams, winning on a last-second field goal. Buffalo prepped for the Week 13 Monday nighter with a 27-17 home win over the L.A. Chargers.

        "We opened Bills -3 and are now at Bills -3 (even)," Murray said, before taking note of the new COVID regulation in Santa Clara County, Calif., that could keep this game from being played on the Niners' home field. "This game will be action at our book regardless of where the game takes place. The 49ers are getting healthy and are probably better than people think right now, but the public will be all over the Bills here."

          Yeah, we know the Steelers have a game to play before facing Washington. But there are more potential negatives than positives that will influence the Week 13 odds, so we're grabbing all the points we can with the WFT.

          The post-Thanksgiving NFL landscape is a very challenging one for football bettors.

          December’s schedule not only brings chilly temperatures and erratic weather but playoff pushes, missing motivation, coaches on the hot seat, a season’s worth of wear and tear, and – special for 2020 – COVID-19 outbreaks.

          There’s so much more to consider when betting the NFL Week 13 odds. But despite all those additional influences, the best NFL betting strategy remains: get the best of the number. That means knowing when to pull the trigger on your wagers.

          These are our best NFL betting tips for the Week 13 lines to bet now, and the lines to bet later.

          Washington Football Team (+10) at Pittsburgh Steelers: Bet Now

          Thanks to Baltimore’s COVID outbreak, Washington catches Pittsburgh on a short Week 13 turnaround. The Steelers, who were supposed to battle the Ravens on Thanksgiving Thursday, play their AFC North rivals Tuesday (fingers crossed) leaving little time to prep for a feisty Football Team out of D.C.

          As of Sunday night – two days away from that Ravens-Steelers game – Washington is catching 10 points on the road in Pittsburgh this Sunday. The Football Team played on Thanksgiving – a huge win at Dallas – and now reaps the benefits of that mini bye against the top team in the AFC.

          There are not many positives that can come out of the Steelers’ Tuesday contest, beyond beating up on a shorthanded Baltimore squad, and that’s not going to be enough to lift this spread any higher. And with a trip to Buffalo in Week 14, Washington gets Pittsburgh in a dreaded sandwich spot: letdown from a wild week and rivalry game and looking ahead to a battle with the Bills.

          Take all the points you can with Washington now (also because this line will come off the board come Tuesday). The WFT has covered in four of its last six and is well-rested in Week 13.

          New England Patriots vs. Los Angeles Chargers (+1): Bet Later

          We’ve seen this from the Patriots already this year. New England skitters along and then posts one big win and everyone jumps on the bandwagon. How else can you explain the Pats moving from as big as +2.5 to +1 for their cross-country trip to L.A. this Sunday? Well, besides the Chargers playing shit football…

          New England ground out an ugly 20-17 home victory over Arizona in Week 12 and that’s helping push this spread close to a pick’em. The Patriots are 1-4 ATS on the road and fell into a similar situation at Houston in Week 11, fresh off a big home win over Baltimore the following game.

          Say what you want about Anthony Lynn – and people are – but he does know Bill Belichick very well from his time in the AFC East with the Jets and Bills. The L.A. passing attack can scorch that fancy new turf at SoFi Stadium and New England gives up 9.2 yards per pass attempt on the road—dead last in the NFL.

          The Chargers have come up short for sports bettors in five straight but if you’re buying the Bolts at home in Week 13, wait it out and see if you can get a pick (or even points) by the time this game kicks off at 4:25 p.m. ET Sunday.

          Cincinnati Bengals at Miami Dolphins (Under 42.5): Bet Now

          The Burrow-less Bengals looked how we thought they would, putting up only 17 points in a home loss to the New York Giants this past weekend. Cincinnati second-stringer Brandon Allen completed 17 of 29 passes for 136 yards, one touchdown and one interception.

          Cincinnati was three for 10 on third downs and picked up only 3.4 yards per play in that game, and now takes on a Dolphins squad that's second-best in third-down defense, allowing foes to convert on less than 34 percent of their third-down snaps. On top of that, Miami is a stop unit rooted in havoc, generating 17 takeaways on the year, including two interceptions in Sunday’s victory over the Jets.

          Offensively, the Fins aren’t fantastic—no matter which QB is under center. Ryan Fitzpatrick has jumped back into the fray in relief of the injured Tua Tagovailoa (thumb) and may need to lace up that beard one more time in Week 13. Miami has managed a combined 33 points the past two games with an offense in the bottom third of DVOA, per Football Outsiders. If you’re bracing for another boring game, bet the Under now as this total has started to tick down from 43 to 42.5 points.

          Cleveland Browns at Tennessee Titans (Under 53): Bet Later

          Derrick Henry ran up one side of the Indianapolis Colts and down the other, helping Tennessee drop 45 points on its divisional rival in Week 12. That ass waxing has inflated this Week 13 total and continues to puff it up with early action on the Over moving the number from 52 to 53 points.

          Let’s not take anything away from Henry’s performance this past Sunday but the Browns present a pretty stout ground game as well. Cleveland’s two-headed RB monster of Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt is the best rushing combo in the NFL, helping the Browns boast the No. 1 average run yards per game.

          There’s no shortage of home run hitters on both sides but the team that wins will be the team that's able to transform all those gains on the ground into sweet, sweet TOP (time of possession), each hoping to protect a suspect stop unit. On top of that, Cleveland could get pass rusher extraordinaire Myles Garrett back from the COVID list in time for Week 13. If you wonder about the Under, chill the F out and let this tick a little higher before you get down.

            Hot & Not Report - Week 13
            Matt Blunt

            The Thanksgiving holiday has come and gone and it might of took the great run for those highest (fade) and lowest (play on) scoring teams over their past three games, although when fading Kansas City works out on a backdoor touchdown after backing Cleveland loses on giving up a backdoor TD it's got a sick way of feeling worse than 1-1.

            This week it suggests cases should be made for fading the Buffalo Bills (33.7 points per game last three) and backing the Denver Broncos (11.7/game).

            Tough to make any sort of case for Denver until you have a better understanding of their QB situation, but it could become a point of how many points are too many.

            Buffalo's got a Monday Night Football date as small road favorites (Game Played in Arizona) against San Francisco, the defending NFC Champs trying to make a final run at defending their crown.

            A 49ers upset gives them games with Washington and Dallas up next before visiting Arizona on Boxing Day (Dec. 26). Interesting game to spend part of the week breaking down for sure.

            Last week's Thanksgiving thoughts didn't bring out the best results with Detroit's greasy turkey fingers fumbling the ball away numerous times in that 1st half to be the 9th team with a better record on Thanksgiving to lose in recent years. The Steelers had an opportunity in that role before the game got moved, and aside from really getting screwed for the second time this year, moving the game isn't all bad news for the Steelers (or Ravens).

            Both of them get to avoid the “Thanksgiving Curse” with the game being moved, but who knows how all of this affects these teams in the coming weeks and if the Ravens even find their way into a playoff spot when all is said and done.

            At 6-4 SU (pending Wednesday's result), the Ravens and Steelers are still alive in a group of Super Bowl contenders if you want to look back at where Super Bowl participants sat after Thanksgiving week.

            Who's Hot

            Over the past 10 years, 19 of the 20 teams to make the Super Bowl had four losses or fewer after Thanksgiving.


            The shorthanded Ravens are going to have to find a way to be the first to beat Pittsburgh this year on Wednesday to stay in this group of 11 other teams currently.

            Arizona, Tampa Bay, and Las Vegas all coughed up great opportunities to stay in that range this past Sunday, but the lone outlier of the group was that 2011 New York Giants team who were 6-5 SU at this point of the year too.

            You can take this a step further to narrow the field for any future thoughts, with 11 of the 20 teams having two or fewer losses at this point. That leaves three teams with Pittsburgh, Kansas City and New Orleans being the selected three, and all three did start out the 2020 campaign with a win in Week 1 so they are all good here too.

            Other teams that are just outside this range with three losses, but did start the year with a victory are Seattle, Green Bay, Tennessee and Buffalo.

            Where it gets tricky for the Steelers though, is not only do they have all this adversity with the schedule now, but they are the only one of those Top 3 teams that didn't play a postseason game last season and that may be problematic.

            Recommending two of the top three teams currently isn't exactly rocket science though - something I hope former Lions head coach Matt Patricia still remembers – but for those that maybe needed a slight nudge in firing on one of those three organizations, the “are who they are” post-Thanksgiving test certainly matches up with what we've seen on the field from the Steelers, Chiefs, and Saints.

            You do have to wonder if the lack of that second bye week throws a wrinkle into things this year with the potential for a seed further down to ride an early upset all the way through, and all four of those three loss teams lurking just behind were playoff competitors a season ago as well.

            Finding the right price and learning to stomach the weaknesses Seattle, Green Bay, Buffalo, and Tennessee currently have out there may end up being a nice portfolio to have in a month's time.

            The “State Farm Super Bowl” I predicted we would see last year might have been a year too early, and with a Chiefs/Packers win conference parlay currently in the 10/1 range for this year, sticking with that thought would have to be a starting point for me right now.


            Who's Not

            Fading teams on the Money-Line after they played the New York Jets this year is 1-9 SU


            Had another thing lined up and ready to go here but was bitten by the bye weeks again, so I'll save it for next week when two teams will fit the script. So went with a flipped around version of saying that nine of the previous 10 NFL teams to beat the New York Jets have gone on to win their next game as well.

            It was actually on a 9-0 SU run until the Los Angeles Chargers lost in Buffalo last Sunday, yet another thing the Chargers can't seem to do right this year. Literally every other team to beat the Jets has turned it into at least a two-game winning streak now but them. It really is tough to watch.

            Again, this isn't a whole lot of help this week in recommending the Miami Dolphins on the ML (-55) as a double digit home favorite vs. Cincinnati, but the Jets have a really interesting schedule going forward to keep this idea of riding the team that just played them (and likely beat them) for a second straight week.

            N.Y. Jets Schedule

            Week 13 - vs. Las Vegas
            Week 14 - at Seattle
            Week 15 - at L.A. Rams
            Week 16 - vs. Cleveland
            Week 17 - at New England

            Las Vegas is visiting New York this week before hosting Indianapolis next week, a two-week stretch for the Raiders where two victories could put them right back where they want to be in the AFC playoff race. The ML option on the Raiders in that Colts contest will be a reasonable price to consider.

            The next opponent for the Jets would be Seattle, who visits Washington the following week, ending a three-week run where the Seahawks will be heavily favored each time. Not too applicable unless you are laying the price in some sort of ML parlay.

            Who could you follow the rest of the season?

            Week 14 - Raiders vs. Colts
            Week 15 - Seahawks vs. Washington
            Week 16 - L.A. Rams at Seattle
            Week 17 - Cleveland vs. Pittsburgh

            Interestingly enough though, after Seattle visits Washington, they host the Rams the following week, with LA being in that positive post-NYJ role for that game in Week 16. Could it be that Seattle gets to feel the sting from both ends of this NY Jets run in consecutive weeks? You know that Rams/Seahawks game will have playoff implications of some sort.

            Finally, the only other NFL team to still have a game this year after facing the Jets will be Cleveland, who visits the Big Apple in Week 16. The Browns host Pittsburgh in Week 17 in a game that might actually have more meaning than in the past with only one bye offered in each conference, and Cleveland being wherever they may be in the Wildcard standing at the time.

            Definitely some reasonable spots to consider there, and for those that are curious about the ATS record of these post-NYJ games, those teams are 6-4 ATS this number with the Chargers being the fourth defeat.

            Obviously the other three came in a role Miami could find themselves in this week with that big number vs Cincinnati – win the game outright but fail to cover – but if you are looking for any addition to a weekly ML parlay, taking the team that just beat the Jets is a good place to start.

                  Ravens vs. Steelers Week 12 Odds, Preview
                  Matt Blunt

                  A proposed Thursday Night Football game was supposed to be played on Tuesday Night football and after another about-face, the NFL decided to move Pittsburgh and Baltimore to a rare Wednesday afternoon contest.

                  Why play on Wednesday afternoon instead of in the primetime slot? Well, while we believe football is king of television in America, and it is for the most part, the folks at NBC have already booked a “Christmas In Rockefeller Center” tree-lighting special. Score one for Santa Claus!

                  The Baltimore Ravens are in the middle of a virus issue right now and it could end up being the beginning of the end for their 2020 campaign because of it and if you don't think so, then check out the injury report below.

                  This huge rematch with the Pittsburgh Steelers was meant to give the Ravens a last shot at staying in the AFC North race, but with how the next few weeks play out for Baltimore, they might not even get a legitimate last shot at even making the playoffs now.

                  That's life in the NFL in 2020 though, as from the Denver Broncos perspective this week, Baltimore's even lucky the NFL moved the game for them. Denver wasn't afforded such courtesy and was made to “take one for the shield” so to speak in playing without a legitimate quarterback on Sunday.

                  So after coughing up the first meeting with four turnovers and still having a pass broken up in the end zone on the final play of the game to win it, can Baltimore get any sort of redemption in the return match with the Steelers, or will Pittsburgh take no quarter with their embattled division rival and cruise to an 11-0 record?

                  Handicapping the Total

                  The first meeting easily went 'over' the closing number of 44, making it the 3rd straight in this rivalry to go 'over' the number. But this is also going to be a very different looking Ravens team we see on the field this time around, and expecting any sort of similar success will be tough.

                  Baltimore would love to protect the ball this time around, as they had no problem moving the ball against the vaunted Steelers defense in that first game, they just couldn't hold on to it long enough to cash in points.

                  The success the Ravens had running the ball (265 rushing yards) can work as a positive for this game, considering we are likely to see Baltimore run the ball plenty to try and shorten the game. Shortening the game is the best chance Baltimore's got in this one, as it's not like their own defense couldn't try to steal this thing either.

                  Allowing 28 points after giving up just 221 total yards in that first game was a sore spot for this Ravens defense, even with seven of those points coming directly from the Steelers defense on the pick-six to open the scoring.

                  I'd expect them to welcome the challenge of trying to carry this team from the outset, but that can only take you so far in terms of trying to win the game.

                  In terms of the total though, the shape this Baltimore roster is in does lend itself to looking low on this total. Baltimore's going to bring a heavy dose of their running game at Pittsburgh again, and if they can continually move the chains that way like they did in the first meeting, the Steelers time of possession here will be slim.

                  That's going to make it tough for Pittsburgh to cover this point spread, or do enough on their end for 'over' bettors.

                  Head-to-Head History

                  Nov. 1, 2020 - Pittsburgh 28 at Baltimore 24, Steelers +4, Over 44
                  Dec. 29, 2019 - Baltimore 28 vs. Pittsburgh 10, Ravens +2, Over 35
                  Oct. 6, 2019 - Baltimore 26 at Pittsburgh 23, Steelers +3.5, Over 44

                  Handicapping the Side

                  You'd have to go all the way back to 10 meetings ago between these two teams to find the last time one of them was catching double digits, as Baltimore won 20-17 outright as an 11-point home underdog back in late December of 2015.

                  Baltimore was the team that owned the turnover battle that day in going +3 in that regard, and they'll probably need to have multiple turnovers again this time around to have a shot at the outright victory.

                  But covering a double digit spread in a rivalry where Baltimore's only lost by double digits three times to Pittsburgh since the start of the 2005 season (34 games) is a much different question no matter who the Ravens end up on the field with.

                  QB Robert Griffin III has plenty of experience in this league, and with his skill set being very similar to starter Lamar Jackson, having him as a backup really allows the Ravens coaching staff to keep the status quo in terms of what plays are readily available to use.

                  Keeping things simple and executing (what you can execute) at a high level are going to be critical to any level of success Baltimore has here, and having RG III back there is a far different circumstance then what Denver dealt with this past week.

                  But that blowout defeat the Broncos suffered because of COVID issues will find some common ground in the marketplace with what is likely to be Steelers love from start to finish for this game.

                  Bettors will remember how easy a win it was laying whatever number with the Saints on Sunday, and think it will be more of the same with Pittsburgh and their lofty number.

                  I'm not so sure that will be the case in a rivalry game of this nature, but with next to nothing for practice time, and question marks on if all the Ravens players even know one another out there are still concerned enough to move on from all this uncertainty and move on to another day.

                  A forced selection on the side would have me siding with all those points and Baltimore, but I do believe the total is still the better way to go, if only because of the chance this game does turn out similar to the Saints/Broncos game where Pittsburgh cruises to a big lead and can just sit on the ball in the 2nd half to let that clock bleed.
