NFL Best Bet Season Record: 58-62-0

WE WILL GET ABOVE .500. WE WILL WIN OUR BEST BETS.

Denver Broncos(ML) @ Houston Texans

DK +102

FD +114

This is painful for me. Truly. The Houston Texans are not a good team and it is entirely because of their horrible offensive line. That horrible offensive line is now going up against Zach Allen, Nik Bonitto, and Jonathon Cooper. The Broncos are a good quarterback away from being a contender, but even now the Texans defense has been buoyed by the horrible Titans and battered Buccaneers and Ravens. This game is screaming Denver, and I hate it.

San Francisco 49ers @ New York Giants(ML)

DK +120

FD +118

The 49ers are too hobbled to be favorites. Even if we ignore the offensive injuries, the lack of Bosa and Warner on defense is devastating. They can no longer rush the passer and the middle of the field is open. Even without Nabers and Skattebo, Tyrone Tracy, Wandale Robinson, and Theo Johnson should be enough to get the Giants the win.

Indianapolis Colts(-3.5) @ Pittsburgh Steelers

DK -108

FD -105

The Steelers are out of safeties against a team with Tyler Warren and Jonathan Taylor. Easy Colts best bet.

Carolina Panthers @ Green Bay Packers OVER 43.5

DK -110

FD -115

With Bryce Young back, I think the Panthers should be able to score at least 17 points. That leaves the Packers to score 30+ and they should be able to do that fairly easily. Love the over here.

Minnesota Vikings @ Detroit Lions(-9.5)

DK -105

FD -105

Yeah. Detroit is coming off a bye and the secondary is healthy. The Vikings are a mix of injured and QB needy. Detroit also covers. It's what they do. Love the Lions here.

Los Angeles Chargers(-9.5) @ Tennessee Titans

DK -115

FD -118

The Chargers should absolutely crush Tennessee. It should be ugly. That's all I have to say for this analysis.

Atlanta Falcons @ New England Patriots(-4.5)

DK -112

FD -110

The Falcons are too inconsistent to wager on in any capacity. They've lost all of their games played in the elements. They have lost games to the M.A.S.H unit 49ers and the Dolphins. They've been shut out by the Panthers. They have nothing worth staking on besides Bijan Robinson being good.

The Patriots just have to keep playing as they have been. The defense has been timely and the offense proved it can score plenty against great defenses. Love the Pats here.

Chicago Bears @ Cincinnati Bengals OVER 51.5

DK -110

FD -110

The Bengals defense is terrible and the Bears don't have any corners. This is a recipe for a bad team shootout and I'm here for it. The only thing that can prevent this bad team shootout from happening in my opinion is a Caleb Williams disaster class. Love the over here.

Jacksonville Jaguars(-3.0) @ Las Vegas Raiders

DK +100

FD -115

Plug your nose and bet it. For as bad as the Jags have looked at times this season, they are still in a different class entirely than the Raiders' level of bad. The Jags have the roster talent to cover this game comfortably.

New Orleans Saints @ Los Angeles Rams(-14.0)

DK -115

FD -105

The Rams will cover. Set it and forget it. That's what they do.

Kansas City Chiefs @ Buffalo Bills(ML)

DK +110

FD +112

I will be moved by the Chiefs if they can beat the Bills with zero reffing controversy. Their only win of consequence was against Detroit and the refs made up a penalty and then lied about the penalty after the game. The same game where somehow the Chiefs didn't commit a single penalty. Wins against the Giants, hospital Ravens, and hapless Raiders and Commanders don't move me. I am capable of being moved if they go into Buffalo and win decisively. But I need to see it.

Buffalo also needs to prove they are still the cream of the crop. They won a thriller on the first Sunday of the season, comfortably beat all the bad teams on their schedule, lost a one score game to the Pats and lost a weird one to the Falcons. Even with that I am more moved because I've seen Buffalo and Josh Allen perform in the clutch without needing the officials to somehow, someway, give them the edge. For that alone, I am taking the Buffalo Moneyline.

Seattle Seahawks(-3.0) @ Washington Commanders

DK -105

FD -105

The Seahawks are better in all 3 phases of the game than the Commanders. They have a better offense, defense, and special teams by DVOA. They have better QB play this season. They also are 10-1 on the road since Mike MacDonald took over with the lone loss being at the Detroit Lions last season. They are just the better team and I think the better team will take it. Love the Seahawks here.
