(25-28-2 towards the unfold in 2022)
TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (-3.5) over Cleveland Browns
The 5-5 Buccaneers appear to have discovered one thing. They’ve gained two straight, and are coming off the bye to tackle a 3-7 Browns workforce that’s misplaced two in a row. This decide is so simple as Tampa Bay’s top-five protection conserving Jacoby Brissett in verify, with Tom Brady doing simply sufficient towards a Browns protection that enables 27 factors per sport. I’ll take the Bucs to cowl in Cleveland and maintain onto the highest spot in a nasty NFC South.
LOS ANGELES CHARGERS (-3) over Arizona Cardinals
If the playoffs started right now, each the 5-5 Chargers and 4-7 Cardinals could be on the skin trying in. LA’s possibilities of moving into the event are extra sensible although, and I count on Justin Herbert to have a day for himself in what needs to be a shootout in Arizona. Kyler Murray is anticipated to return from a hamstring damage and play on this one, however the Cardinals are 1-5 at residence this season. LA snaps a two-game shedding skid and wins by a landing.
SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS (-8.5) over New Orleans Saints
The smartest thing to occur to San Francisco was Jimmy Garoppolo taking on for an injured Trey Lance. The 6-4 ‘Niners have won three straight, and currently hold the No. 3 seed in the NFC playoff picture. It could be a long day for Andy Dalton and the 4-7 Saints in San Francisco. The 49ers defense allows just 17 points per game, and should feast on Dalton, who’s 1-2 in his profession towards San Fran, with 4 touchdowns and three interceptions in these three video games. Give me the 49ers by two touchdowns.
PHILADELPHIA EAGLES (-6.5) over Green Bay Packers
A loss in Philadelphia on Sunday night time might put an finish to Green Bay’s season. The 4-7 Packers don’t have any shot to win their division, and the newest information is that Aaron Rodgers is taking part in with a damaged proper thumb. Meanwhile, the 9-1 Eagles have the No. 1 turnover differential within the league, at +12, with an NFL-best 21 takeaways. Philadelphia’s protection, at residence and in prime time, can be an excessive amount of for Green Bay’s questionable offense to beat. Eagles win by 10.
INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (-2.5) over Pittsburgh Steelers
No matter what the media tells you, Colts followers needs to be enthusiastic about what Jeff Saturday brings to that group. The 4-6-1 Colts are nonetheless within the AFC Wild Card hunt, and practically beat the Eagles final week. Indianapolis has a sneaky good protection, permitting lower than 200 cross yards per sport. The Steelers are 3-7, and rookie Kenny Pickett has thrown three touchdowns and eight interceptions within the seven video games he’s performed. My cash is on the Colts to be adequate, in a low-scoring sport, to win by a subject purpose at residence on Monday night time.
