BEST BET: Bengals Moneyline (+130)
Really? Cleveland is favored? Is this just because of the Betty White Hot In Cleveland karma?
I know Cincy is on the road, but the Bengals still have an outside shot to earn the top seed in the AFC. The Browns are eliminated from the postseason.
This is a truly odd opening line that we should pounce on immediately.
Pittsburgh Steelers @ Baltimore Ravens Early Lines
- Moneyline: Steelers (+175), Ravens (-210)

- Over/Under Points Total: Over 39.5 (-110), Under 39.5 (-110)
- Implied Score: Patriots 22.5, Dolphins 17
BET PICK: Patriots Cover -5.5 @ Dolphins (-110)
New England’s tussle with the Buffalo Bills for the AFC East crown will come down to the final weekend, and while the Dolphins eked out a victory over New England in Week 1, don’t expect a repeat.
Mac Jones‘ Pats are 6-1 on the road, and a tandem run game of Damien Harris and Rhamondre Stevenson should help New England control the tempo.
Dallas Cowboys @ Philadelphia Eagles Early Lines
- Moneyline: TBD
- Spread: Cowboys -2.5 (-110), Eagles +2.5 (-110)
- Over/Under Points Total: Over 41 (-110), Under 41 (-110)
- Implied Score: Cowboys 21.75, Eagles 19.25

- Spread: Seahawks +6.5 (-110), Cardinals -6.5 (-110)
- Over/Under Points Total: Over 48 (-110), Under 48 (-110)
- Implied Score: Cardinals 27.25, Seahawks 20.75
San Francisco 49ers @ Los Angeles Rams Early Lines
- Moneyline: 49ers (+205), Rams (-250)
- Spread: 49ers +5.5 (-110), Rams -5.5 (-110)
- Over/Under Points Total: Over 44.5 (-110), Under 44.5 (-110)
- Implied Score: Rams 25, 49ers 19.5

- Over/Under Points Total: Over 48.5 (-110), Under 48.5 (-110)
- Implied Score: Chargers 25.75, Raiders 22.75
BEST BET: Chargers @ Raiders OVER 48.5 (-110)
One of the heavy favorites to be flexed into either one leg of the Saturday doubleheader or Sunday Night Football due to its “win and in" status, this AFC West clash will be one of Week 18’s featured matchups.
Allegiant Stadium isn’t too much of a homefield advantage for the Raiders, and if TE Darren Waller (COVID-19) returns from the sidelines, the Raiders should have a more robust playmaking corps to complement Hunter Renfrow and Josh Jacobs.
The Chargers’ offense, meanwhile, kept rolling in Week on the arm of Justin Herbert and legs of Austin Ekeler.
