Best NFL underdog picks and predictions for Week 10

Analyzing NFL Week 10 betting odds and lines, with expert predictions and picks of the 3 best underdogs to cash in on.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

Week 9 was not a great week for the underdog as the only one to win outright were the Carolina Panthers, beating the New Orleans Saints 23-22 as 7-point underdogs. Five underdogs, though, covered the spread, including 2 of the 3 picks we made last week. The Miami Dolphins lost 30-27 to the Buffalo Bills, but covered the 6-point spread, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers covered the 9-point spread in a 30-24 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in overtime.

The Denver Broncos lost 41-10 as 9-point underdogs to Baltimore, so that was a dud of a pick. But after 9 weeks, we are 14-12-1 with our recommended underdog picks this season.

Time for more.

Odds provided by BetMGM Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list of NFL odds. Lines last updated Thursday at 9:13 a.m. ET. All games Sunday and ET unless noted.

BRONCOS +8.5 (-110) at Chiefs – 1 p.m. (CBS)

The Chiefs have been the kings of 1-score wins. Six of their 8 wins have been by 1 score.

The Broncos struggled against Baltimore’s high-powered offense but will regroup. Three of their 4 losses have been by 1 score.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

49ers at BUCCANEERS +6 (-110) – 1 p.m. (FOX)

The Niners are expected to have RB Christian McCaffrey back and playing for the first time this season. But Tampa has had one of the toughest schedules in the NFL. Four of their 5 losses have been to the Baltimore Ravens, the Atlanta Falcons twice and Kansas City. Three of those have been by no more than 6 points.

They have beaten the Detroit Lions, Washington Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles, all expected playoff teams at this point.

They will at least play toe-to-toe with the 49ers, who beat a hapless Dallas Cowboys team by only 6.

DOLPHINS (+100) at Rams – Monday 8:15 p.m. (ABC/ESPN)

Yes, the Dolphins are barely underdogs on the moneyline and are are 1-point underdogs against the spread. But since QB Tua Tagovailoa returned, they lost by 1 point to the NFC West-leading Arizona Cardinals and by 3 points to the AFC East-leading Buffalo Bills.

The Rams have won 3 in a row but 2 of their wins are against the Las Vegas Raiders and a Seattle Seahawks team that has lost 5 of 6. They allowed 424 yards of offense to Seattle.

The Dolphins will finally break through with Tagovailoa back.

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Friday at 9:30 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Chiefs 37, Broncos 24

Moneyline (?)

The Broncos (+340) offer a huge payout but the Chiefs (-455) are almost a sure thing. It’s too much chalk to be worth a wager with a $10 bet for the outright win returning a profit of just $2.20. AVOID.

Against the Spread (?)

The Chiefs are 9.5-point favorites at home. They have covered the spread in four of their last five games and five of their last seven. The Broncos have also covered four of their last five. The Chiefs seem to be rolling at the right time and they will frustrate Lock and the Broncos. Take the CHIEFS (-9.5, -110).

Over/Under (?)

The total is set at 45.5 points. Each of the last three games featuring the Chiefs hit the Under, while the Broncos have hit the Over in four of their last five games. Mahomes will find success and Lock will continue to produce. Take the OVER 45.5 (-110).
