Odds provided by BetMGM Sportsbook
Denver Broncos (-145) at New Orleans Saints (+120)
This is the lowest Over/Under of the week (37 points at -110 for both Over and Under). With two young quarterbacks, the playbooks call for a lot of short plays to move the ball. Touchdowns will be at a premium. Take UNDER 37 points (-110).
New England Patriots (+200) at Jacksonville Jaguars (-250)
The Jaguars have been disappointing but are big favorites (5.5 points at -110 for both teams). The Patriots are in the baby-steps period of their franchise rebuild, and the snake-bitten Jaguars are hungry for a home win. Take the Jaguars and lay 5.5 points (-110).
Seattle Seahawks (+130) at Atlanta Falcons (-155)
The Falcons are standard home favorites (3 points at -115 Seahawks, -105 Falcons). After an electric start, the Seahawks have lost three straight. Atlanta has won three straight and is flying under the radar as a team to be reckoned with. Take the Falcons and lay 3 points (-105).
Tennessee Titans (+360) at Buffalo Bills (-500)
Buffalo is the biggest favorite of the week (9.5 points at -110 for both teams). The Bills are trying to put a dominant foot forward, while the Titans have scored 17 or fewer points in four of five games. Buffalo can score 27. Take the Bills and lay 9.5 points (-110).
Cincinnati Bengals (-275) at Cleveland Browns (+220)
The Over/Under is pretty low (41.5 points at -110 for both teams). The Browns trading Amari Cooper seems like surrendering the season. Cleveland can’t score points, but its defense will force enough field goals. Take UNDER 41.5 points (-110).
Houston Texans (+125) at Green Bay Packers (-150)
The Over/Under is big (47.5 points and -110 for both). Both teams have offenses that can be explosive and defenses that have allowed a lot of big plays. That adds up to both C.J. Stroud and Jordan Love putting the ball in the air. Take OVER 47.5 points (-110).

Miami Dolphins (+140) at Indianapolis Colts (-165)
The Colts are typical home favorites (3 points at -105 Dolphins, -115 Colts). Without Tua Tagovailoa, the Dolphins offense has ground to nothing. I’m not bullish on the Colts but willing to give three points against an enfeebled Dolphins team. Take the Colts and lay 3 points (-115).
Detroit Lions (+105) at Minnesota Vikings (-125)
The Vikings are one of two unbeaten teams and are small home favorites (1.5 points). Minnesota is coming off its bye and are at home, but the Lions are a legitimate Super Bowl contender that needs to make a statement. Take the Lions on the moneyline (+105).
Philadelphia Eagles (-165) at New York Giants (+140)
The Eagles are road favorites (3 points at -115 Eagles, -105 Giants). Philly is the better team, but that hasn’t played out as often as it should recently. Too many scenarios point to the Eagles rolling or the Giants making critical mistakes. Take the Eagles and lay 3 points (-115).
Las Vegas Raiders (+260) at Los Angeles Rams (-350)
The Rams are huge favorites (6.5 points at -105 Raiders, -115 Rams). The Raiders have showed nothing in terms of trying to competitive and the Rams are coming off their bye week. I disdain not-good teams giving away this many points, but the Raiders aren’t competitive right now. Take the Rams and lay 6.5 points (-115).
Carolina Panthers (+310) at Washington Commanders (-400)
The Commanders are huge favorites (8 points at -110 for both teams). Washington is starting to be treated as a legitimate playoff team and a beat-down of a team in flux cements that point. Take the Commanders and lay 8 points (-110).
Kansas City Chiefs (+105) at San Francisco 49ers (-125)
The Chiefs are underdogs (1.5 points). Any time you’re getting points along with Patrick Mahomes, you take them. History is your guide. Take the Chiefs on the moneyline (+105).
New York Jets (-135) at Pittsburgh Steelers (+115)
The Over/Under is low (38 points at -110 for both Over and Under). The Steelers offense is always a struggle and bringing in Davante Adams won’t be as big an impact in Week 7 as it will moving forward. Take UNDER 38 points (-110).
Baltimore Ravens (-190) at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+155)
The Ravens are road favorites (3.5 points at -110 for both teams). The Bucs are good enough to beat the teams that are playoff hopefuls … against a Super Bowl hopeful is a different story. Take the Ravens and lay 3.5 points (-110).
Los Angeles Chargers (-155) at Arizona Cardinals (+125)
The Chargers a three-point road favorites. The Cardinals are up and down, but it’s rare when the national spotlight comes to Arizona. The Chargers are far from world-beaters, much less in unfamiliar territory. Take the Cardinals on the moneyline (+125).
