The tightness in this rivalry is nothing new, and when they play in Pittsburgh, it’s very rarely a blowout for Baltimore: the Steelers have won or covered a three-point spread in 27 of 32 matchups in Pittsburgh since 1996. With that in mind, we’ll buy up the very generous Steelers spread we’re getting from sports betting sites to make it just a little bit safer.
Best Bet: Pittsburgh Steelers Alternative +3.5 Point Spread (-120)

The Saints have recorded an INT in eight of 10 games and their 12 picks on the year rank fourth in the NFL. Jameis Winston is coming off a three-pick performance prior to Cleveland’s Week 10 bye and he has thrown a pick in four of his last six games with 20+ pass attempts. NFL betting sites did us a favor with his odds too.
Best Bet: Jameis Winston Over 0.5 Interceptions (-145)

The Chicago Bears have looked awful since coming out of their bye, and they just fired their offensive coordinator. But would that have even mattered? The Bears haven’t beaten the Pack since 2018, and they’ve lost those 10 straight games by an average of 12.7 points. Let’s not overthink this one.
Best Bet: Green Bay Packers Alternative -3.5 Point Spread (-135)

The Colts are only averaging 20.8 points per game this season, but that somehow still puts the Jets’ 17.7 points a contest to shame. Six of Indy’s last nine games have gone under 45 total points, and same goes for seven of the Jets’ last nine. The under is also 3-1 when the Jets are at home, and 4-1 when the Colts are on the road.
Best Bet: Alternative Game Total Points Under 45.5 (-148)

This could very well be the largest spread of the year, but the Lions have been so good, we did actually consider it for a moment. Instead, we’ll go with the Lions to put up a big number on this porous Jags defense. They’ve gone for 30+ in four of their last six, including two straight at home.
Best Bet: Detroit Lions Over 30.5 Points (-125)

The Patriots have been taking advantage of an easy run in their schedule recently. That ends this week with the Rams coming to town in dire need of a win to stay in the NFC West hunt. Nonetheless, we’ll buy this spread down to something a little more safe.
Best Bet: Los Angeles Rams Alternative -3.0 Point Spread (-155)

The Miami Dolphins are finally healthy on offense, and they’re going up against the third-worst scoring defense (27.8 per game) in the NFL at home. Last year they scored 27+ in six of nine home games and the Raiders have allowed 27+ in four of their last five.
Best Bet: Miami Dolphins Over 27.5 Points (+110)

There’s been a lot of Sam Darnold revisionism recently, but we’re not hopping off the bandwagon just yet. This Titans defense is better than people think, but the offense is so bad, the Vikings should be able to cover any spread under a TD with relative ease.
Best Bet: Minnesota Vikings -6.0 Point Spread
