Thinking About Betting On The NFL This Weekend?
You might want to think again. Or at least have some extra info. Weโve got teams who already locked up a one seed, teams that are looking for better seeding, and other teams that will be golfing next week. So, what does it mean to bet this weekend?
Well, for โstarters,โ some teams are resting players, so letโs run through those first.
Key Players Resting
๐ The Ravens are resting Lamar Jackson, OBJ, and Zay Flowers
๐ The Browns are taking no chances. Elite Joe Flacco will get a day off today
๐ The Niners are giving Brock Purdy and CMC a rest in their game against LA Rams. The Rams are also giving the Matthew Stafford. The Rams are also resting Kyren Williams and Cooper Kupp
๐Patrick Mahomes will be resting for the Chiefs
๐ The Raiders are also sitting Josh Jacobs, as heโs not fully healthy
๐ DeVonta Smith and Darius Slay are also scratches for the Eagles tonight.
Key Matchups This Weekend
Pittsburgh Steelers @ Baltimore Ravens
๐บ๏ธ Saturday, 4:30 pm ET on ESPN
๐ฐ๏ธ The Steelers are favored at -3 and the O/U is 34.5
๐ The Steelers can lock up an AFC wild-card spot with a win in Baltimore. As you already know, The Ravens are sitting some starters and I would love to see the Steelers miss the playoffs because who wants to see a terrible offense continue to play in January? Not me !
Houston Texans @ Indianapolis Colts
๐บ๏ธ Gametime is Saturday, 8:15 pm ET on ESPN
๐ฐ๏ธ The Texans are favored by 1.5 points and the O/U is 47.5
๐ Depending on what happens in this game and the Jags/Titans game, the winner of this game could take the AFC South
Jacksonville Jaguars @ Tennessee Titans
๐บ๏ธ Gametime is 1 pm ET on CBS on Sunday
๐ฐ๏ธ The Jags are favored by 3.5 points and the O/U is 41.5
๐ The Jags should win this game but thereโs still a question of whether or not Trevor Lawrence is fully healthy for tomorrow. The Jags can take the AFC South with a win.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Carolina Panthers
๐บ๏ธ Gametime is 1 pm ET on FOX on Sunday
๐ฐ๏ธ The Bucs are favored by 4.5 points and the O/U is 36.5
๐ The Bucs are 8-8 and need a win to lock up the NFC South. The Panthers already locked up the #1 pick for the Bears by having the worst record in the league. Will Carolina try to ball out today? My magic 8-ball says unlikely.
Atlanta Falcons @ New Orleans Saints
๐บ๏ธ Gametime is 1 pm ET on CBS
๐ฐ๏ธ The Saints are favored by 3 points and the O/U is 42.5
๐ If the Panthers upset the Bucs, the winner of this game will take the AFC title. God, I hate this division
Minnesota Vikings @ Detroit Lions
๐บ๏ธ Gametime is Sunday at 1 pm on FOX
๐ฐ๏ธ The Lions are favored by 3.5 points and the O/U is 46.5
๐ The Vikings NEED a win to keep their playoff hopes alive. The Packers could get in over the Vikings if Green Bay beats the Bears in the 4:25 pm game.
NFC East
Weโre just bunching the NFC East into one group. The Eagles play the Giants at 4:25 pm ET and the Cowboys play the Commanders at the same time. If the Cowboys win, they secure the NFC East. If the Cowboys lose and the Eagles win, the Eagles will get the NFC East division title.
Buffalo Bills @ Miami Dolphins
๐บ๏ธ Gametime is Sunday, 8:15 ET on NBC
๐ฐ๏ธ The Bills are favored by 2.5 points and the O/U is 48.5
๐ The winner of this game will win the AFC East. Could you draw up a final regular season game any better? Unlikely!
Itโs a quick one today. Enjoy the games today and tomorrow and hopefully your team doesnโt miss the playoffs ๐
