The Colts are riding the momentum, having won two in a row and five of their last six. The Cardinals are also riding some momentum, but in the wrong direction, losers of two straight.
Indianapolis is not just fighting for a Wild Card spot, but Sunday’s win moves them one game back of the Titans in the AFC South. After struggling to start the season, the team has turned things around behind the great running of Jonathan Taylor.
Arizona is coming off a tough, tough loss to the (now) two-win Detroit Lions. While the Cardinals are a talented team, they are losing their hold on the NFC West, with both the Rams and 49ers on their tail.
According to our NFL gameday odds, the Cardinals are only favored by 1.5 points. Go with the Colts here for the upset.

While their Week 13 matchup ended 14-10 and Mac Jones threw for only 19 yards, don’t expect that to be the same this time around. I don’t want to be dramatic or anything, but whoever wins this game will most likely win the AFC East.
With major playoff implications on the line, both teams will put their best foot forward. That means both sides will be trying to put as many points as possible on the board.
The Bills keep going back and forth as not only the favorite in the AFC, but they go back and forth in having the best offense in the conference. With Josh Allen under center and all the weapons they have, this offense should be putting up 30 points every week.
Expect this game to be a shootout between Allen and Jones, with both coaches pulling out every trick in the book to outscore the other in our NFL bet of the day.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Carolina Panthers (1:00 p.m. ET)
- Moneyline: Buccaneers (-600) @ Panthers (+425)

The AFC North is the tightest division in the NFL, with both the Ravens and Bengals tied for the lead at 8-6 and the Browns and Steelers right behind them at 7-6 and 7-6-1, respectively.
After being the No. 1 team in the conference at one point, the Bengals fell off and have crawled their way back to the top of the division. The offense is clicking behind Joe Burrow while the defense is holding their own against opponents.
Baltimore has lost three games in a row by a combined 4 points. Absolutely brutal. Even without Lamar Jackson, the Ravens have been competitive, with Tyler Huntley playing well in his place.
The Ravens will make this a competitive game, whether it’s Jackson or Huntley is under center. However, look for the Bengals to win this game by at least a touchdown.
Chicago Bears @ Seattle Seahawks (4:05 p.m. ET)
- Moneyline: Bears (+250) @ Seahawks (-320)
- Spread: Bears +7 (-110) @ Seahawks -7 (-110)
