Indianapolis Colts at Dallas Cowboys odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Indianapolis Colts at Dallas Cowboys odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

After 2 home games in a row, the Indianapolis Colts (4-7-1) are on the road in Week 13 to take on the Dallas Cowboys (8-3) Sunday night in prime time.

The Cowboys defeated the New York Giants 28-20 on Thanksgiving Day, but failed to cover the 10.5-point spread as favorites. They have a 2-game winning streak and have won 4 of their last 5 games.

Colts at Cowboys picks and predictions

Prediction

Cowboys 27, Colts 13

Moneyline

The Cowboys are 5-1 at home this season and have won their last 5.

The Colts are 2-4 on the road, but their last win was on the road.

This is a game the Cowboys should win, even with potentially missing players with the flu bug. But with the moneyline what it is, PASS.

Against the spread

The Colts have lost by double digits only twice this season while the Cowboys have 5 double-digit wins out of their 8 this season.

The Colts have the most turnovers in the league (21) and the Cowboys are 8th in the league with 16 takeaways.

The Colts, averaging 15.8 points per game, are 20th in scoring. The Cowboys are No. 2 in points allowed at 17.0.

It appears unlikely the Colts will be able to even reach their season average, while the Cowboys have scored 28 or more in 4 straight games.

BET COWBOYS -10.5 (-113).

Over/Under

Only 3 of the Colts’ 12 games have seen the Over hit. The Cowboys are 4-6-1 O/U on the season.

Only 1 of the Colts’ last 6 games has had more than 44 total points.

BET UNDER 44 (-111).

Denver Broncos at Baltimore Ravens odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Denver Broncos at Baltimore Ravens odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Denver Broncos (3-8) are on the road in Week 13 to take on the Baltimore Ravens (7-4). Kickoff Sunday at M&T Bank Stadium is at 1 p.m. ET (CBS). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Broncos vs. Ravens odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Broncos lost on the road 23-10 to the Carolina Panthers last week as 1-point favorites. They have lost 3 games in a row and 7 of their last 8 overall.

The Ravens lost 28-27 to the Jacksonville Jaguars on a last-minute TD and 2-point conversion last week, blowing a 9-point 4th-quarter lead as 3.5-point favorites. The loss snapped a 4-game winning streak.

Broncos at Ravens picks and predictions

Prediction

Ravens 24, Broncos 13

Moneyline

The Broncos are winless on the road this season except for neutral-site win in London and have not scored more than 10 points in their last 2 road games.

The Ravens are 3-2 at home, but have won 4 of their last 5 games overall.

They have scored at least 20 points in 5 of their last 6 games, while the Broncos have reached 20 points once in their last 7 contests.

You should like the Ravens to win this game outright, but it isn’t worth the action at -410.

PASS.

Against the spread

The Ravens have only 2 double-digit wins this season.

The Broncos have only 1 double-digit loss.

The problem is the Broncos’ defensive strength is against the pass, where they rank 3rd in the league, allowing 184.7 yards per game. The Ravens have the league’s No. 2 rushing offense at 162.7 yards per game. The Broncos are 19th in rush defense, allowing 121.6 rushing yards per contest.

BET RAVENS -9.5 (-110).

Over/Under

Only 1 of the Broncos’ 11 games this season has had the Over hit. They have not had a game reach 40 points in their last 7 contests.

The Ravens are 4-7 O/U on the season.

BET UNDER 39.5 (-106).

Miami Dolphins at San Francisco 49ers odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Miami Dolphins at San Francisco 49ers odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Miami Dolphins (8-3) visit the San Francisco 49ers (7-4) in a battle of division leaders Sunday. Kickoff from Levi’s Stadium is set for 4:05 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Dolphins vs. 49ers odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Dolphins have a 5-game winning streak after covering a 14-point spread in beating the Houston Texans 30-15 in Week 12. Miami had a brilliant 1st-half performance and led 30-0 at halftime and didn’t play their starters in the 2nd half. They are tied with Buffalo atop the AFC East.

The 49ers are on a 4-game winning streak since their blowout loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Oct. 23. The NFC West leader won in Week 12 with a 13-0 shutout against the New Orleans Saints as 8-point favorites.

Dolphins at 49ers picks and predictions

Prediction

49ers 38, Dolphins 35

Moneyline

PASS.

The 49ers will win this game because their defense will have the ability to not only put more pressure on the QB, but they will also be able to string together more stops. The defensive effort paired with the elite offensive playmaking ability will make this game a hard one for the Dolphins to win. But that doesn’t mean you should a bet -210 line.

Against the spread

BET DOLPHINS +4.5 (-110).

Both of these teams are very good and expected to make deep playoff runs, which is why this will be a close game. Whoever wins will do so by a field goal or less and whether it’s the 49ers or the Dolphins that win, this is your best bet.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 45.5 (-112).

Both of these offenses are so high powered that it is hard for me to see this game being under 46 points. The Dolphins have scored 30+ point games in 4 straight games and the 49ers have some of the most talented players in the league at every position offensively. The 49ers defense is elite, but with 2 great offenses, expect the points to flow.

Tennessee Titans at Philadelphia Eagles odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Tennessee Titans at Philadelphia Eagles odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Tennessee Titans (7-4) visit the Philadelphia Eagles (10-1) Sunday with kickoff from Lincoln Financial Field set for 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Titans vs. Eagles odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Titans are coming off a tough 20-16 loss last Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals. The defense did a solid job holding a potent Bengals offense to only 20 points, but the Titans will need to produce more in both the running and passing game if they want to win this game.

The Eagles are on a 2-game win streak after their lone loss of the season to the Washington Commanders. Last Sunday night the Eagles beat the Green Bay Packers in a 40-33 shootout as they rushed for 363 yards and 3 TDs.

Titans at Eagles picks and predictions

Prediction

Eagles 24, Titans 20

Moneyline

AVOID.

This is a game that could easily go either way and -210 is too high for me. The Titans are an underrated team that can cause problems for any team because of their run game and defensive prowess. Expect this game to be close, but don’t risk betting on the moneyline here.

Against the spread

BET TITANS +4.5 (-111).

The Titans are a very strong and veteran team that doesn’t need the star power at the receiver position to be great. With a solid piece in 1st-round draft pick WR Treylon Burks, a phenomenal run game anchored by Derrick Henry and a sound defense, this team will beat you if you don’t take them seriously. This will likely be a 1-score game.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 44 (-108).

Both teams have sound rushing attacks and both teams have defenses that are simply too good for me to advise you to bet the over. With the Eagles allowing the 2nd-fewest total yards in the league and a top-10 Titans defense that gave the high-octane offenses of the Kansas City Chiefs and Bengals trouble, expect this to be a defensive battle. They’ll be some scoring, but not much.

Washington Commanders at New York Giants odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Washington Commanders at New York Giants odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Washington Commanders (7-5) visit a familiar foe in divisional opponent the New York Giants (7-4) Sunday. Kickoff from MetLife Stadium is set for 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Commanders vs. Giants odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Commanders are on a 4-game winning streak and making a playoff push in the NFC East. They beat the Atlanta Falcons last week 19-13 as 3.5-point favorites in a game that came down to the last play. The Commanders played just well enough to beat Atlanta, but will need to play much better if they want to beat a tough Giants team.

The Giants have lost 2 straight game, the last 28-20 on Thanksgiving Day vs. the Dallas Cowboys. The lack of a running game in that game made it hard for the offense to capitalize on the turnovers that their defense created. I don’t see that trend continuing as the Cowboys defense is better on all fronts than that of the Commanders.

Commanders at Giants picks and predictions

Prediction

Giants 24, Commanders 21

Moneyline

BET GIANTS +110.

The Giants will win this game because of their coaching and ability to disrupt the QB. The Giants and Commanders are 2 teams who would both be in the playoffs right now, and there’s a reason. Both teams are solid both offensively and defensively. Clock management will be a big thing toward the end of this game, as the game will come down to the wire, and with RB Saquon Barkley the Giants can run the clock easily.

Against the spread

BET GIANTS +2.5 (-109)

I am confident in the Giants ability to win and I don’t see the Commanders winning 5 straight games. While they have looked solid recently I simply think the Commanders won’t win this game. It will be close no matter who wins and I believe in the Giants ability to force turnovers and string together stops more than I trust the Commanders defense to do the same.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 40.5 (-113)

Both these teams have talented offenses, and while this bet does come with a fair amount of risk I also believe in the Over here. Neither team has such a stifling defense that the other won’t be able to score, and both teams have solid enough offenses to make this a very decent scoring game.

New York Jets at Minnesota Vikings odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s New York Jets at Minnesota Vikings odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The New York Jets (7-4) take a 4-1 road record with them as they travel to play the Minnesota Vikings (9-2) at 1 p.m. ET Sunday (CBS). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Jets vs. Vikings odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

Something will have to give in this interconference battle since both teams are undefeated against the other division. The Jets have posted convincing wins against Green Bay and Chicago while the Vikings are looking to improve to 4-0 against the AFC East.

The Jets defense has been imposing over the last 2 months. In their last 8 games, nobody has scored more than 22 points against them, 4 of the last 6 teams have scored 10 or less and teams are averaging just 14 points.

The Vikings haven’t been winning pretty, but they’ve stacked up 9 wins — the last 8 of them being 1-score games. In 3 of those wins, Minnesota has overcome a double-digit deficit in the 4th quarter, making the plays needed to win down the stretch.

Jets at Vikings picks and predictions

Prediction

Vikings 20, Jets 16

Moneyline

PASS.

Unless you think the game is going to be decided by 1 or 2 points, there is no reason to invest 63 percent more than your return. While it might end up happening (anything is possible with Minnesota’s penchant for tight games), the better investment is against the spread.

Against the spread

TAKE THE VIKINGS -3 (-107).

Minnesota finds ways to win games in the final minutes. It has been the Vikings M.O. all season. The Jets offense isn’t dynamic — I don’t put much stock in hammering a Bears team last week that sold off its best defensive players at the trade deadline.

If the spread moves to 3.5 points before game time, I might reconsider this bet, but the noise in US Bank Stadium is going to make things miserable for QB Mike White to try to make changes at the line and audible. The Vikings take advantage of home cooking often and it tends to lead to the critical turnover that can change the outcome of a game.

Over/Under

TAKE THE UNDER 44.5 (-110).

The Jets deserve a lot of respect with what they have accomplished defensively. If they make the playoffs, it will be because of their defense.

Typically you say getting to 20 points should be a minimum standard, but only 1 of New York’s last 6 opponents has accomplished that and it was the Patriots scoring 22 points in Week 8 by kicking 5 field goals.

Points are going to hard to come by and until a team proves it can throw 24 or more points against this Jets defense, you take the Under every time.

Green Bay Packers at Chicago Bears odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Green Bay Packers at Chicago Bears odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Green Bay Packers (4-8) visit the Chicago Bears (3-9) Sunday at 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Packers vs. Bears odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

After Aaron Rodgers was injured on Monday, Jordan Love almost rallied the Packers to a victory, coming up just short in the 40-33 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Despite Rodgers dealing with a broken thumb and injured ribs, he is still planning to start in Chicago. And why not? In his career against the Bears, Rodgers in 25-10 with 63 TDs and 10 INTs.

The Bears, after losing 31-10 to the New York Jets in a rainstorm last week, will get QB Justin Fields back in this game. This will go a long way in helping them as his rushing ability has been a key to their offense and the Packers allow 154.7 yards per game on the ground.

Packers at Bears picks and predictions

Prediction

Packers 33, Bears 31

Moneyline

PASS.

If you like the Bears to win, the +180 is a suitable number. But if you think the Packers will win, the -210 is a little too high to wager on. This will be a close game, and anything can happen this season. I would rather use the spread as a buffer for either side I am on.

Against the spread

BET BEARS +4.5 (-111).

When this game opened at -4, I liked the Packers with Rodgers back and the uncertainty around Fields. Now that Fields has been practicing and is expected back, I like the Bears to cover this number.

Fields just set the record with 174 rushing yards in a game by a QB. The Packer’s defense is vulnerable against the run. Fields and David Montgomery should have a wonderful day in Chicago, and they will keep it close. BEARS +4.5 (-111) is my FAVORITE PLAY in this game.

Over/Under

BET OVER 45 (-110).

The Packers are coming off a 33-point output against the Eagles last Sunday night. The Bears, although only scoring 10 points without Fields on Sunday, are coming off a 4-game stretch in which they scored no less then 24 points.

While defense is going to be optional in this game. This number will really be determined if Rodgers and Fields are truly healthy. If they are, this game easily hits the Over. If fields or Rodgers needs to come out, this could go sideways. They are both healthy enough and I like the OVER 45 (-110).

Cleveland Browns at Houston Texans odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Cleveland Browns at Houston Texans odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Cleveland Browns (4-7) travel to meet the Houston Texans (1-9-1) for a Week 13 matchup Sunday at NRG Stadium in Houston. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (CBS). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Browns vs. Texans odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Browns welcome QB Deshaun Watson back from an 11-game suspension, and he will make his regular-season team debut against his former team.

Check out the prop bets for Watson’s return

Cleveland is coming off a solid 23-17 overtime win as 3.5-point underdogs against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Browns are 3-2 ATS in the last 5 games overall, but are 1-4 SU and 2-3 ATS in their last 5 road games, including a neutral-site battle with the Buffalo Bills in Detroit on Nov. 20.

Houston won on the road in Jacksonville Oct. 9, but it has dropped its last 6 games, while going 1-5 ATS. The Texans are also 0-4-1 SU in 5 games at home, while 2-3 ATS with the Under hitting in 3 of the 5 outings.

Browns at Texans picks and predictions

Prediction

Texans 23, Browns 20

Moneyline

The TEXANS (+305) are worth a look for a chance to triple up at home against its former embattled quarterback.

The Browns (-370) get Watson back, and a lot of people think Cleveland will instantly be better, but this is a QB who hasn’t played a meaningful game in 2 years. There is certain to be rust, and QB Kyle Allen and the Texans offense could be fairly effective with rookie RB Dameon Pierce.

It would help if Cooks were in the lineup, as that stings, but WR Nico Collins looked like a legit No. 1 wideout last week, and he and Allen had a nice rapport.

The Browns are a strong running team, and the Texans rank last in the NFL with 168.6 rushing yards per game allowed. As long as Houston can offer a little bit of resistance, forcing Cleveland to the air, the upset chance is good.

Against the spread

Take the TEXANS +7.5 (-109), as the Browns -7.5 (-111) have shown they have no business laying a touchdown to anybody, especially on the road. This is a team which is 3-5 ATS in the last 8 games, and it lost outright as a 6.5-point favorite in Week 2 at home against the New York Jets.

Over/Under

UNDER 46.5 (-108) is the lean in this AFC battle.

While the Browns might want to pass a little more, trying to knock the rust off of its “new” quarterback, the team’s strong point is its run game. Run games are always good for the Under.

The Texans have cashed the Under in 4 of the last 5 games overall, while going 5-1 in the last 6 following a straight-up loss. And, the Under is 8-3 in the past 11 meetings with the Browns, for what that’s worth.

Browns at Texans: Deshuan Watson prop bet picks and predictions

Analyzing Cleveland Browns QB Deshaun Watson prop bets for Week 13 at the Houston Texans with NFL picks and predictions.

This isn’t a column to discuss the debate of the NFL allowing QB Deshaun Watson to play Sunday in Week 13 when the Cleveland Browns (4-7) visit the Houston Texans (1-9-1) at 1 p.m. ET (CBS). It’s about the opportunity for the sports gambler to make some money as Watson makes his season debut after serving an 11-game suspension for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy.

Below, we break down Tipico Sportsbook’s NFL prop bet odds and lines, and tab the best Deshaun Watson Week 13 prop bets to cash in on among SportbookWire’s NFL expert picks and predictions.

Watson will face his former team in the Texans Sunday. Watson last played 2 seasons ago in Week 17 (Jan. 3, 2021) when he threw for 365 yards and 3 TDs in a 41-38 home loss to the Tennessee Titans. He started every game that season as Houston struggled through a 4-12 campaign.

Watson demanded a trade after the season, but the Texans weren’t willing to negotiate. He ended up on the inactive list — for “non-injury reasons/personal matter” – and hasn’t played in a regular-season game since.

He was traded to Cleveland in March of 2022 and soon signed a guaranteed 5-year, $230-million deal before receiving the 11-game suspension.

Sunday, he returns to the field.

Best Deshaun Watson prop bets to make in Week 13

Provided by Tipico Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated Saturday at 7:38 p.m. ET.

UNDER 239.5 passing yards (-115)

Watson hasn’t played a competitive game at this level in 699 days. There’s no way he’ll be at the top of his game.

But the big reason Watson won’t throw for 240 yards or more is because of Cleveland RB Nick Chubb and Houston’s weak rush defense.

Chubb has 1,039 rushing yards this season — ranking 3rd behind Las Vegas’ Josh Jacobs (1,159) and Tennessee’s Derrick Henry (1,048).

Houston’s rush defense ranks last, allowing 168.6 yards per game.

Look for the Browns to utilize their star back a majority of the day, which will minimize Watson’s passing attempts.

UNDER 20.5 pass completions (-115)

& UNDER 31.5 pass attempts (-115)

For the same reasons above, the lean is to the Under on these 2 props.

However, AVOID as there’s no need to double down — or triple down — with our UNDER 239.5 passing yards bet.

However, I could see divvying up 1.5 UNITS between the 3 options (Under passing yards, completions and attempts).

OVER 0.5 interceptions (+135)

Watson hasn’t faced an NFL pass rush in some time and he won’t know what hits him Sunday. He’ll likely panic and throw 1 away in the wrong direction.

With Houston’s defense having 7 INTs this season — to rank in the middle of the pack — don’t make this a big bet. We’re getting value with the “plus-money” at +135, anyway.

If you’re wondering, the Under on this prop is listed at -170.

OVER/UNDER 1.5 passing TDs (+100 | -130)

PASS on this prop, no pun intended.

If I had to choose, it’s an Under play because of Chubb vs. Houston’s Swiss cheese rush defense.

There’s no reason Watson should be throwing the ball that much Sunday.

In the Texans’ 11 games, they allowed Over 1.5 TDs just 3 times. The other 8 games would be winners on an Under play here.

OVER 24.5 rushing yards (-115)

Running the ball will be much easier than passing the ball for Watson in his 1st game back.

In his last full season, he ran for 25 yards or more in 11 of Houston’s 16 games.

Against Houston’s rush defense, he’ll likely do so Sunday.

Pittsburgh Steelers at Atlanta Falcons odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Pittsburgh Steelers at Atlanta Falcons odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Pittsburgh Steelers (4-7) visit the Atlanta Falcons (5-7) Sunday at 1 p.m. ET (CBS). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Steelers vs. Falcons odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

A 19-13 loss to Washington was not what the Falcons wanted last Sunday. The team had a chance to win, but a critical red-zone interception from Marcus Mariota cost Atlanta the game. With Tampa Bay’s loss, the Falcons remain just 1 game back in the weak NFC South Division.

The Steelers feel good after a 24-17 victory over the Indianapolis Colts on Monday night. But despite the win, Pittsburgh is still 4th in the AFC North. While the team is struggling, QB Kenny Pickett had some moments on Monday and his progress means good things for the future in Pittsburgh. His connection with WR George Pickens is something the team can build on. If Najee Harris can get healthy, there is a solid young core for the Steelers to count on.

Steelers at Falcons picks and predictions

Prediction

Falcons 24, Steelers 21

Moneyline

BET FALCONS (-105).

If you are going to bet the ML, do not bet the spread at 1. Both odds are similar and choosing either is fine in this game. Same goes for the Steelers.

Against the spread

PASS.

If you bet the ML then skip the spread as the numbers are the same. If you decide to wager on the spread, then skip the ML. it is as simple as that in this game.

Over/Under

BET OVER 42.5 (-109).

This game will be close. With 2 not-so-good teams and a close spread, I like the Over to hit. When Watt is healthy, the Pittsburgh defense is entirely different. With injured ribs heading into this game, the defense will not be as good, and the Falcons will be able to use Mariota in the run game and Drake London in the pass game to move the ball. The Steelers will also be able to move the ball against a bad Atlanta defense. I do not think this game is a shootout, but it does get into the 40s. Give me OVER 42.5 (-109).
