NFL Week 14: Let’s make some money parlay

Odds provided by Tipico Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated on Thursday at 12:15 a.m. ET. All games Sunday and ET unless noted.

Leg 1: Vikings at Lions OVER 52.5 (-108) – 1 p.m. (FOX)

The Vikings have averaged 24.1 points per game this season while the Lions have averaged 26.3. Both teams have also played games close with all the Viking’s wins being within 1 score and the Lions rarely being able to pull away other then Sunday’s 40-14 victory against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

This will be a fun game and both teams will use the pass game to get the ball down the field.

The Lion’s defense was starting to improve with CB Jeff Okudah finally getting up to speed. But his injury has set the team back again and Vikings WRs Justin Jefferson and Adam Thielen will be able to take advantage of a weak Detroit secondary.

Both teams have terrible defenses that will allow plenty of points in the Motor City. The 52.5 is a substantial number. But not big enough to make me shy away from it to start off this parlay.

Leg 2: Chiefs at BRONCOS +9.5 (-110) – 4:05 p.m. (CBS)

Even though Russell Wilson and the entire Broncos offense is trash, the defense is far from it.

Even without Bradley Chubb, Denver has one of the top defenses in the NFL. Baltimore’s Lamar Jackson went out in the 1st quarter last week, but  Denver still held the Ravens to 10 points and forced backup Tyler Hundley into multiple turnovers.

Last week’s loss to the Cincinnati Bengals was the 1st career loss in Novermber or December for Patrick Mahomes. While he may win, he does not cover as at 17-18-2 he is less then 50% in covering in those months. This divisional game in Denver will be another game in which he and the Chiefs do not cover.

I thought about taking the Under here as this is going to be an ugly game. But I decided to go with the +9.5 with Denver instead. It will be low scoring. The Chiefs will win, but it will be close. Do not let the records fool you. Denver has a great defense, and the Chiefs will not be able to run away from the underperforming Broncos in Mile High. Take the Broncos +9.5 (-110) as the second part of our parlay.

Leg 3: Ravens at Steelers UNDER 37 (-110) – 1 p.m. (CBS)

AFC North battles, especially between these 2 teams, rarely have an offensive outburst.

The Steelers, despite playing a bad Atlanta Falcons defense, only managed 19 points Sunday. The Ravens, after losing Jackson in the 1st quarter, only managed to score 10 points with Hundley behind center. Jackson will not be back this week and another start by Hundley will be in the cards.

Although T.J. Watt missed last week he will be back for Pittsburgh and his presence will be key to the Steelers being able to get pressure on Hundley.

Hundley can run. But he will be unable to do so for much success against the Steelers defense and Kenny Pickett will also find success difficult against the Ravens defense in this game.

The highest scoring players in this game could easily be the kickers for both teams in Chris Boswell and Justin Tucker. Do not expect a high-scoring affair here and if you are counting on any Steelers or Ravens players to get you into your fantasy playoffs, you might just be sitting out the playoffs this season. Sorry.

Parlay payout: Bet $10 to win $70.50 (profit $60.50).

Leg 4-*: Browns at Bengals OVER 47 (-111) – 1 p.m. (CBS)

*-If you want to add a 4th play to this parlay:

The Bengals -6 is a bit inflated. Joe Burrow has bever beaten the Browns (0-4) in his career. Despite this, the public is heavily on the Bengals bandwagon and the books know this and use it to inflate the number. The line should be closer to Bengals -4.

The Bengals are good though. And they will score. After returning last week to beat former team Houston 27-14, Deshaun Watson will be able to relax and play free in this game. The Browns put up 27 points Sunday without scoring an offensive TD. If they can actually score on offense in this game, they could get to 30.

The Bengals and Burrow are coming off a 27-24 win over Kansas City, handing Mahomes his 1st career loss in December. The Bengals are closing in on the Ravens in the division and with Jackson out, this is their time to make up the distance.

Speaking of returns, Ja’Marr Chase returned from a fractured hip against the Chiefs and scored a TD. He will get another 1 in this game and the Bengals and Burrow will finally vanquish the Cleveland Browns in a high-scoring affair in the Queen City.

Parlay payout: Bet $10 to win $134.00 (profit $124.00).
