Game: HOU@CLE (currently at CLE -3.5)

TREND: Texans in 2020

  • ATS: 1-7-0 (14.3%) since 2020 Week 1
 

The return of Nick Chubb gives Cleveland the best running back duo in the NFL as Kareem Hunt goes back to being by far the top backup in the league. Houston is letting up an NFL worst 159.5 YPG on the ground, and with an extra week to prepare for this game, Kevin Stefanski will find ways to move the ball down the field on the subpar defense. Making this game as easy as possible for Bakey Mayfield will lessen the chance of a crucial turnover that could potentially give life to Houston.

Myles Garrett will look to build on his DPOY campaign and make it as tough as possible for Deshaun Watson to have success in a windy Cleveland city. Starting running back David Johnson is out, putting all of the pressure on Watson to keep up with a stout Cleveland running game while having to deal with arguably the best pass rusher in the game right now.

Pick: CLE -3.5

Game: LAC@MIA (currently at OU 48)

TREND: Chargers Last Five

  • ATS: 5-0-0 (100%) since 2020 Week 4
 

Justin Herbert vs. Tua Tagovailoa. Two rookie quarterbacks potentially playing for the top spot for ROY by the end of the season. Two teams combining for an average of 54 points per game so far this season. The weather is looking to be great in Miami and the injury report is only major for one side, with Los Angeles not having Joey Bosa, making it even easier for Miami’s offense. These two quarterbacks are expected to continue their incredible rookie campaigns and turn this game into a classic shootout among two players who will have their careers linked together for years.

Pick: Over 48

Game: DEN@LV (currently at OU 50.5)

TREND: Vegas Overs in 2020

  • OU: 6-1-1 (81.2%) since 2020 Week 1
 
Two teams that simply don’t know how to play defense, averaging a combined 55 PPG allowed this season. Denver has seem to have gotten their offense going these past two weeks and Las Vegas can put up points in the Vegas dome as they’ve done all season. Derek Carr recently had an ugly performance in Cleveland thanks to some bad weather and now gets to go home to a dome stadium after lighting it up in LA last week. On the other side, Drew Lock is heating up and getting a rhythm going with his offense. An old fashioned AFC West shootout is brewing in Sin City.
 

Pick: Over 50.5

Game: PHI@NYG (currently at PHI -3.5)

TREND: DET Overs at Home

  • ATS: 8-1-0 (88.9%) since 2018 Week 13
 

For the first time in what seems like forever, Philadelphia is going into a game with a minor injury report. Lane Johnson and Jason Peters are good to go, being huge for Carson Wentz. Miles Sanders is returning as well as Alshon Jeffery for the first time this year, not to mention Dallas Goedert and Jalen Reagor are also good to go for this one, unlike their last matchup with NYG a few weeks ago. 

With the offense looking as healthy as it has all year, the biggest key player coming back is no other than Malik Jackson. Last time these two teams matched up, New York was able to rack up 160 yards on the ground. That Philadelphia defensive front being fully healthy, along with run-stopper TJ Edwards, will make it hard on New York’s offense and essentially put the game in Daniel Jones’ hands. People have seen how that goes whenever he’s not facing the Washington Football team (4-0 vs. DC; 1-16 vs. everyone else).  

Pick: PHI -3.5

Game: BAL@NE (currently at BAL -7)

TREND: BAL Away vs. AFC

  • ATS: 5-0-0 (100%) since 2019 Week 10
 

“They’re calling out our plays.” These words came out of the most important player on Baltimore, reigning MVP Lamar Jackson. Lamar and the Baltimore offense hasn’t been nearly as good this year as 2019, averaging a lackluster 347 YPG (23rd) instead of setting rushing records. The defense, however, is the best in the league and nothing should change on primetime against a New England offense that doesn’t flaunt many threats. 

After the comments made by Lamar, an offensive clinic should be expected and that defense is surely going to make it extremely challenging for Cam Newton. Baltimore has blown out the average to bad teams this year, and lost close ones against the top of the league and at the end of the day, New England is average at best this season. 

Pick: BAL -7
