Indianapolis Colts @ Atlanta Colts

1pm EST – Mercedes-Benz Stadium
Colts at Falcons
In the upcoming matchup, the Colts, boasting a resurgence led by Carson Wentz, set foot in Atlanta to take on the Falcons. The Colts have been on a tear lately, displaying an impressive offensive display. However, the Falcons, with Taylor Heinicke stepping in at quarterback, present an underdog challenge. Heinicke’s unpredictability might just be what the Falcons need to spark an upset. Lean towards the Falcons covering the spread (+2.5) or even the possibility of the game eclipsing the expected total points (O/U 44.5).

Seattle Seahawks @ Tennessee Titans

1pm EST – Nissan Stadium
Due to injuries, there is uncertainty surrounding the Titans’ quarterback situation going into this game. While the Titans grapple with quarterback issues, they face a Seahawks squad led by Geno Smith, known for his flashes of brilliance. Despite the uncertainties, the Titans, with their resilience and knack for overcoming odds, might just pull off a win. The Titans covering the spread (+3.5) or the potential for the game to surpass the projected total points (O/U 41.5) are the top bets with the online sportsbooks.

Detroit Lions @ Minnesota Vikings

1pm EST – U.S Bank Stadium
The Lions, often underrated despite their record, possess a resilient squad with a hint of unpredictability. They face off against the Vikings, a team that occasionally struggles to find consistency. The Lions, fueled by the potential for upsets, might just cover the spread (+3) against the Vikings, showcasing an offense that could exceed the predicted total points over 47.5 total points.

Washington Commanders @ New York Jets

1pm EST – MetLife Stadium
Both the Commanders and the Jets face pivotal moments, grappling with their respective struggles. The Commanders, under Ron Rivera’s guidance, have an opportunity to capitalize on the Jets’ vulnerabilities. Analysts anticipate a defensive showdown, potentially resulting in the Commanders covering the spread (+3) and the likelihood of a lower-scoring game under 37 points.

Green Bay Packers @ Carolina Panthers

1pm EST – Bank Of America Stadium

Green Bay, a formidable force in the NFC, squares off against the Panthers, a team oscillating between flashes of brilliance and inconsistency. The Packers, backed by a potent offense, might overshadow the Panthers’ efforts. Expectations lean towards the game’s total score surpassing the predicted line of 37.5 points or the Packers covering the spread -4 at Bovada.

Cleveland Browns @ Houston Texans

1pm EST – NRG Stadium
The Browns, fortified by a resilient defense, encounter the Texans, whose offensive performance remains unpredictable. With Joe Flacco at the helm, the Browns might secure control defensively, leading to a potential lower-scoring affair under 40 points and the Browns covering the spread (-3).

Jacksonville Jaguars @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers

4:05pm EST – Raymond James Stadium
The availability of Jaguars’ quarterback Trevor Lawrence dictates the game’s potential trajectory. If Lawrence takes the field, a compelling matchup against the Buccaneers might ensue. Predicting a high-scoring affair, exceeding the expected total 43 points , or the Buccaneers covering the spread (-1).

Arizona Cardinals @ Chicago Bears

4:25pm EST – Soldier Field
Cardinals at Bears
The Cardinals, seeking a rebound, face the Bears in a clash of strengths and weaknesses. Kyler Murray’s dynamic play against Chicago’s defense makes this an intriguing matchup. Anticipate a closely contested game that is set to exceed the predicted 43 total points or the Cardinals covering the spread (+4).

Dallas Cowboys @ Dever Broncos

4:25pm EST – Hard Rock Stadium

Dallas meets Miami in an offensive showdown. The Cowboys, led by Dak Prescott, have a powerful passing game that could exploit Miami’s defense. However, Miami’s strong passing offense, even without Tyreek Hill, poses a threat to Dallas. Expect an explosive game where Miami’s big plays might keep the match closer than expected against Dallas’ defensive strength.

New England Patriots at Denver Broncos

8:15pm EST – Empower Field at Mile High

The Patriots enter Mile High Stadium to face the Broncos, highlighting a game where Denver’s defense and New England’s inconsistent second-half performances clash. Bailey Zappe’s Patriots show flashes of brilliance in the first half but struggle to maintain momentum. If they exploit Denver’s defense, which tends to yield points in the latter halves, they could challenge Denver’s favored spread.

Russell Wilson’s presence for the Broncos brings experience, but New England’s staunch defense poses a significant obstacle. If the Patriots disrupt Denver’s offensive rhythm and capitalize on their second-half vulnerabilities, they might cover the spread.
