Cleveland Browns at Pittsburgh Steelers odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Cleveland Browns at Pittsburgh Steelers odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Cleveland Browns (3-9) meet the Pittsburgh Steelers (9-3) meet Sunday at Acrisure Stadium for a Week 14 matchup. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (CBS). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds around the Browns vs. Steelers odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Browns upended the Steelers 24-19 in Week 12 on Thursday Night Football as the Over (37) cashed at a snowy Huntington Bank Field on the shores of Lake Erie. Cleveland also covered a 3.5-point underdog.

The Browns followed that up with a 41-32 loss on Monday night in Week 13 at Denver. Cleveland lost despite QB Jameis Winston throwing for 497 yards, and WR Jerry Jeudy returning to the Mile High City to post a career-high 235 receiving yards with a TD. Of course, Winston also had a pair of pick-sixes, too.

The Steelers bounced back from the loss with a high-scoring 44-38 win at Cincinnati as a 3-point underdog. Pittsburgh piled up 520 total yards, including 414 passing yards from QB Russell Wilson, while forcing 2 fumbles with a plus-1 turnover differential.

Pittsburgh is 6-1 straight up (SU) and against the spread (ATS) in the past 7 games, with the lone loss coming in Cleveland. On the flip side, the Browns are 1-3 SU/ATS in the past 4 outings, with the only cover coming against the Steelers. The Over has cashed in 3 straight games.

Browns at Steelers picks and predictions

Prediction

Steelers 29, Browns 18

Moneyline

The Steelers (-300) will set you back 3 times your potential return. That’s way too expensive, especially considering it has been just 16 days since the Browns (+240) topped Pittsburgh outright.

PASS.

Against the spread

The STEELERS -7 (-105) are worth a look in Sunday’s rematch. The weather conditions won’t be the same as they were in Cleveland, as temperatures will be mild with temperatures in the upper 40’s and just breezy conditions.

However, Pittsburgh will flip the script simply because it is at home. It is 4-1 SU/ATS in 5 games at Acrisure Stadium, including wins and covers in the past 3 at home, including an 18-16 victory and cover against the Baltimore Ravens in the most recent home game in Week 11.

Over/Under

OVER 43.5 (-115) is a strong play.

First off, the Over cashed in Week 12 in the first meeting between the Steelers and Browns. The Over has cashed in 6 of the past 7 games for Pittsburgh, including 2-1 in the past 3 home contests.

For the Browns, Cleveland has hit the Over in 3 in a row, averaging 28.0 PPG in the past 2 outings. It has also allowed 31.7 PPG in the past 3 contests, as the defense has been rather giving.

Carolina Panthers at Philadelphia Eagles odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Carolina Panthers at Philadelphia Eagles odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Carolina Panthers (3-9) meet the Philadelphia Eagles (10-2) meet Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field for a Week 14 matchup. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds around the Panthers vs. Eagles odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Panthers suffered a 26-23 loss in overtime in Week 13 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Carolina’s second straight loss on a walk-off field goal. Carolina gave QB Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs all they could handle in Week 12, falling 30-27 on a field goal at the buzzer.

Carolina has covered 4 straight games, including outright wins against the New Orleans Saints and New York Giants, while cashing the Over in 4 of the previous 5 outings. The Over is also 8-2 in the past 10 games, too.

The Eagles are coming off a huge 24-19 road win against the Baltimore Ravens last Sunday, covering as a 3-point underdog. Like the Panthers, Philadelphia has covered 4 consecutive outings. The Under is 3-1 in the past 4 games, too.

Panthers at Eagles picks and predictions

Prediction

Eagles 31, Panthers 22

Moneyline

The Eagles (-900) will set you back 9 times your potential return, which is way too much for a standalone bet or as part of a multi-leg parlay.

However, while the Panthers (+600) have played teams very tough lately, they can’t be trusted against a 10-win team even though this is the type of game where Philadelphia typically loses unexpectedly late in the season.

PASS.

Against the spread

The PANTHERS +13.5 (-110) are a solid play against the Eagles -13.5 (-110) in this Week 14 matchup.

Carolina isn’t likely to win this game outright, but no one gave it a chance against Kansas City, and it took the Chiefs a full 60 minutes to get the victory. Against another playoff contender, the Buccaneers, the Panthers took them to overtime before eventually falling.

Since QB Bryce Young returned under center, Carolina football has been competitive. Look for more of the same Sunday.

Over/Under

OVER 45 (-110) is worth a look in Sunday’s NFC battle.

The Eagles have scored 24 or more points in 7 straight outings, while allowing 17 or more points in 5 of the past 6 games.

For the Panthers, the Over has cashed in 3 of the past 4 games. Carolina has averaged 23.4 PPG in the past 4 outings, while allowing 23.8 PPG. The Over is 4-1 in the past 5 games for the Panthers, and 8-2 across the past 10 outings, too.

New Orleans Saints at New York Giants odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s New Orleans Saints at New York Giants odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The New Orleans Saints (4-8) visit the New York Giants (2-10) Sunday. Kickoff from MetLife Stadium is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds around the Saints vs. Giants odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

New Orleans snapped a 2-game winning streak with a 21-14 loss against the LA Rams last week while failing to cover as a 2.5-point home underdog. QB Derek Carr went 24 of 37 for 184 yards and a touchdown while RB Alvin Kamara added 23 carries for 112 yards on the ground.

The Giants have dropped each of their last 7 games after falling to the Cowboys 27-20 last week and failing to cover as 4-point road underdogs. QB Drew Lock went 21 of 32 for 178 yards and an interception while leading the team on the ground with 4 carries for 57 yards and a TD.

Jacksonville Jaguars at Tennessee Titans odds, picks and predictions

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Tennessee Titans (3-9) welcome the Jacksonville Jaguars (2-10) to Nissan Stadium Sunday. Kickoff in the AFC South clash is set for 1 p.m. ET (CBS). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds NFL odds around the Jaguars vs. Titans odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Jaguars lost to the Houston Texans at home 23-20 Sunday in Week 13 action. They pushed as a 3-point underdog. Jacksonville is riding a 5-game losing streak but is 3-1-1 against the spread (ATS) in those battles. It is 6-5-1 ATS on the season.

The Titans lost to the Washington Commanders on the road 42-19 Sunday, closing as a 6-point underdog. After losing 6 of its first 7, Tennessee’s 2-3 record over its last 5 has been better than expected. The Titans’ defense has been the main issue, allowing 27 or more in 5 of their last 7.

Jaguars at Titans picks and predictions

Prediction

Titans 23, Jaguars 20

Moneyline

PASS.

The Titans should come out on top as the Jaguars have yet to win on the road this season; however, their offense hasn’t played well enough to expect a sizable victory.

Against the spread

BET JAGUARS +3.5 (-115).

The Jaguars haven’t consistently won as of late, but they have covered. They are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 games and are 2-1 ATS with a 3.5-point spread this season. Jacksonville is 3-3 ATS on the road.

The Titans are 0-4 ATS at home and just 2-10 ATS on the season. Tennessee has topped 20 just twice this season, so it doesn’t necessarily have an offense capable of scoring at will.

Expect this to be a close game and back the underdog. Take JAGUARS +3.5 (-115).

Over/Under

BET OVER 40 (-110).

The Titans have gone Over in 2 straight and in 5 of their last 7, mainly due to their atrocious defensive play. With numerous starters questionable, those woes should continue. Tennessee has allowed at least 27 in three of its last 4 games.

The Jaguars defense hasn’t been much better, allowing at least 23 in 4 of their last 5. They have scored at least 20 in 4 of their last 6, so their offense has been a bit more consistent.

Considering those defensive trends, back OVER 40 (-110).

LA Chargers at Kansas City Chiefs odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s LA Chargers at Kansas City Chiefs odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The AFC West takes over Sunday Night Football in Week 14 when the LA Chargers (8-4) visit the Kansas City Chiefs (11-1). Kickoff from GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium is scheduled for 8:20 p.m. ET (NBC). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds around the Chargers vs. Chiefs odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

Kansas City looks to sweep the 2-game season series, following a 17-10 victory at SoFi Stadium in Week 4, a comeback win during which the Chiefs scored 17 unanswered points.

The Chiefs survived Week 13 with a 19-17 win over the Las Vegas Raiders due to a controversial game-ending call that allowed the Chiefs to decline a penalty and register a turnover. Kansas City has won 2 straight games following its Week 11 loss vs. the Buffalo Bills.

LA has cemented its likely control of a playoff spot with 5 wins across its last 6 games, most recently outlasting the Atlanta Falcons 17-13 Dec. 1.

Will Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid hold off the visiting Justin Herbert and Jim Harbaugh? And how should Chargers vs. Chiefs bettors handle this card?

Chargers at Chiefs picks and predictions

Prediction

Chargers 23, Chiefs 20

Moneyline

Despite the Chiefs’ nearly spotless regular-season record, Mahomes has looked more human than any other time during this Chiefs dynasty run.

The Bolts’ defensive talent is set up to give him fits once again, especially if Taylor won’t manage to suit up, which should help the pass rush.

The Chargers that Kansas City has faced in the recent past have been undisciplined and injury-riddled. This writer views the Chiefs’ fortune and the Chargers’ newfound success as the perfect opportunity to predict a road upset.

FanDuel Sportsbook offers a more favorable ML price as of publication time, though.

BET CHARGERS +176 at FanDuel Sportsbook.

Against the spread

Despite the Chiefs’ need to escape many games with a fortunate win, markets have overestimated their ability to cover lines this season; Kansas City sits at just 5-7 ATS, including a meager 2-4 at Arrowhead.

With Harbaugh’s direction and relative team health compared to previous seasons, LA has remained competitive in just about every game with an 8-4 ATS mark. That comes with an equal 4-2 in each of the home/road splits.

The Chargers will at least keep this close by preventing Mahomes from attacking with deep passes, something he’s struggled to achieve for much of this season.

Finally boasting some adept coaching to elevate its elite talent, LA will cover. Bettors who aren’t as confident in a straight-up win can opt for taking the points instead as the best bet of the week in this matchup.

BET CHARGERS +4 (-110).

Over/Under

The Chargers lead the NFL in scoring defense, allowing just 15.7 points per game. Kansas City ranks 8th (19.6).

Neither team has run the ball exceptionally. The Chargers rank 18th (122.9 yards per game); the Chiefs reside at 19th (111.8).

However, 2 major potential wrenches in betting the Over: (1) McConkey being ruled inactive, and (2) the Chiefs leaning more frequently on RB Isiah Pacheco as he works back in more frequently following his Week 13 return from injured reserve.

Though I could suggest the Over so bettors have more outs — plus the push of the projected total above — the number is too tight. I can envision it breaking either way without much confidence in a direction.

PASS.

Buffalo Bills at LA Rams odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Buffalo Bills at LA Rams odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Buffalo Bills (10-2) are visiting the LA Rams (6-6) Sunday for a marquee matchup in Week 14. Kickoff from SoFi Stadium is set for 4:25 p.m. ET (FOX). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds around the Bills vs. Rams odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Bills have won 7 straight games, scoring at least 30 points in each of their last 6 games. At 10-2, they’re just 1 game behind the Kansas City Chiefs for the No. 1 seed in the AFC, and they hold the tiebreaker after winning their head-to-head matchup this season. Most recently, they crushed the San Francisco 49ers, 35-10, on Sunday Night Football in Week 13.

The Rams come into this one with a 6-6 record after winning just 2 of their last 4 games. They came back to beat the New Orleans Saints, 21-14, in Week 13, getting back to the .500 mark for the second time this season. They’ve yet to have a winning record at any point this year but they’ll have a chance to change that with a win over the Bills.

Bills at Rams picks and predictions

Prediction

Bills 30, Rams 27

Moneyline

PASS on the moneyline. The Bills are on the road against a motivated Rams team, so they could be ripe for a letdown, especially after winning 7 games in a row. They’re just not worth betting on their own at -190.

Against the spread

The Bills have covered the spread in 3 straight games and 6 of their last 7, but the Rams are 4-2 ATS in their last 6 and have shown signs of improvement now that they’re fully healthy. The offensive line is at full strength, their receiving corps is healthy and the defense should be able to generate interior pressure against the Bills’ guards.

With the spread sitting at a key number of 3.5, BET RAMS +3.5 (-105) to cover and keep this one close.

Over/Under

The Bills have scored at least 30 points in 6 straight games and that’s not likely to change against a Rams defense that’s given up 582 rushing yards in their last 3 games, an average of 194 per game. The Rams, meanwhile, scored 21 points in the second half of Sunday’s win over the Saints and could find success running it against Buffalo’s defense, which is allowing 4.9 yards per carry.

BET OVER 49.5 (-110).

Winner winner chicken dinner: NFL parlay for Week 14

Analyzing NFL Week 14 betting odds and lines, with predictions and picks for the best parlay bet to make.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

We head into Week 14 of the 2024 NFL regular season with 11 Sunday games and another Monday night contest. There are plenty of 3-way parlay possibilities.

Last week was wonderful, as we hit a 3-game parlay on Thanksgiving, as well as a 3-game parlay on Sunday.

The Under (48) cashed in a very, very quick game between the LA Chargers and Atlanta Falcons to get the day off on the right foot. QB Kirk Cousins helped with the Under, tossing 4 INTs.

In the second game, the Arizona Cardinals (+3.5) simply needed to keep it close in the Twin Cities against Minnesota Vikings, and that’s exactly what they did. Arizona was winning 22-16 with 3:20 to go, but a late touchdown with 1:13 left gave Minnesota the 23-22 victory.

In the final game of the day on Sunday Night Football, we backed the Buffalo Bills (-6) against the San Francisco 49ers. There was snow in the forecast all week, and it turned out to be even worse conditions than initially forecasted.

That worked out well for us, as the Bills worked out the 49ers, who had an absolute disastrous game. Not only did the Niners lose, but RBs Christian McCaffrey (knee) and Jordan Mason (ankle) were lost for the season due to injuries.

So, cha-ching again! After a 3-for-3 Thanksgiving parlay, it was 3-for-3 Sunday slate, too. Let’s do it again and build that bankroll for the holidays.

After looking at BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL Week 14 odds, here is our “Winner winner chicken dinner” NFL parlay bet to cash in on among SportsbookWire’s NFL expert picks and predictions.

WEEK 14

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 Friday at 6:01 a.m. ET. All games Sunday and ET.

Leg 1: Panthers +13 (-110) at Eagles – 1 p.m. (FOX)

The Carolina Panthers (3-9) travel to meet the Philadelphia Eagles (10-2) in the early window Sunday.

The Panthers have looked more like an NFL-caliber team lately. After looking like an abysmal No. 1 overall pick, QB Bryce Young has shown some signs of growth, and Carolina football is at least competitive again. In fact, the Panthers had won 2 in a row before losing to the Kansas City Chiefs on a field goal at the buzzer. Last week, Carolina lost 26-23 to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a walk-off field goal in OT.

The Eagles went down to Baltimore and won a marquee game 24-19 over the Ravens as a 3-point underdog. Philly has won 8 in a row, while covering in 6 of the past 7, so this play comes with some risk.

However, Carolina has been signing up for 60 lately, playing to the buzzer, and it should give Philly a good run, too.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

Leg 2: SEAHAWKS +2.5 (-105) at Cardinals – 4:05 p.m. (FOX)

The Arizona Cardinals (6-6) host the Seattle Seahawks (7-5) in a key NFC West Division game to kick off the late window on Sunday.

The Seahawks won in a chilly drizzle against the Cardinals in Seattle in Week 12, and Seattle has now won 6 straight meetings in this series, while going 4-1-1 ATS in the span.

The Seahawks have won and covered 3 in a row, and WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba is emerging as a star in the Pacific Northwest. With him, WR DK Metcalf, etc., the Seattle offense is quite exciting.

Based upon historical trends, we have to back Seattle. Arizona has dropped 2 in a row since a 4-game win streak. However, there is plenty of risk here, as the Cardinals have won 3 in a row at home dating back to Week 7.

Leg 3: CHIEFS -4 (-110) vs. Chargers – 8:20 p.m. (NBC/Peacock)

The LA Chargers (8-4) hit the road to battle the Kansas City Chiefs (11-1) for the Week 14 Sunday night game.

The weather forecast has continually changed, so make sure to double check before finalizing your bets.

Unlike last Sunday, this game will have a rather favorite weather forecast with temperatures in the low 50’s, and just a 10% chance of precipitation with light winds. So, the weather will not be a factor like it was last week.

The Chargers bounced back with a low-scoring 17-13 win at the Atlanta Falcons last week after a 30-23 home loss to Baltimore in Week 12.

These teams are meeting for the second time this season. Kansas City won 17-10 at SoFi Stadium in Week 4, covering as 6.5-point favorites. The Chiefs have won 6 in a row in this series, while covering the past 3 in the series. The most recent meeting at GEHA Field at Arrowhead was a 31-17 win as a 6-point favorite last season on Oct. 22, 2023.

Green Bay Packers at Detroit Lions odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s Green Bay Packers at Detroit Lions odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

A NFC North rivalry hits Thursday Night Football as the Detroit Lions (11-1) host the Green Bay Packers (9-3). Kickoff is scheduled at 8:15 p.m. ET (Prime Video) from Ford Field in Motown. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds around the Packers vs. Lions odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

Two storied franchises in arguably the NFL’s most competitive division showcase their second matchup of the season. The Lions prevailed 24-14 in the first contest during rainy, wet conditions at Lambeau Field in Week 9, on the back of touchdowns by WR Amon-Ra St. Brown and RB Jahmyr Gibbs.

Since its only loss of the season, Week 2 to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 20-16, Detroit has rattled off 10 straight wins, a streak punctuated by its 23-20 escape in which the Chicago Bears botched a chance to tie or win in Lions territory in the final minutes.

The Packers rolled over the Miami Dolphins 30-17 at chilly Lambeau Field on Thanksgiving night to notch their seventh win in eight games.

Packers at Lions picks and predictions

Prediction

Lions 27, Packers 23

Moneyline

The biggest difference will be whether Alexander can suit up for the Packers and help contain the passing game. The lockdown cornerback has not yet played a divisional opponent this season, and his presence could force Detroit to adjust.

However, the Lions rank 7th in EPA per rush (0.03), so they’re comfortable in adjusting by leaning on Gibbs and RB David Montgomery. Green Bay can, of course, hold its own with Jacobs, as long as he’s healthy.

Even with Green Bay’s offensive stock matching Detroit’s almost position-for-position, siding against the Lions on their home turf would be a mistake.

Detroit’s (-178) ML listed on FanDuel Sportsbook offers better value than BetMGM in this market.

BET LIONS (-178) at FanDuel Sportsbook.

Against the spread

Books and bettors have generally priced Detroit correctly this season; the Lions have compiled a 9-3 record ATS. Green Bay has split the difference at 6-6.

The Packers will naturally keep this close, but in a toss-up, take the lesser juice ATS.

BET LIONS -3.5 (-105).

Over/Under

These squads are an identical 5-6-1 on the O/U, which likely has transpired because of their excellent run games that can slow down the pace and, in turn, scoring totals.

Many will point to the full week of rest for these teams after each played on Thanksgiving to favor a higher-octane offensive performance, and the above prediction credits plenty of touchdowns. This game will also take place indoors instead of in weather elements, which impacted their first meeting this year.

However, especially if Alexander plays, these 2 teams likely will try to eat as much clock as possible on the ground.

BET UNDER 51.5 (-110).

Browns at Broncos picks and predictions

Prediction

Broncos 26, Browns 18

Moneyline

The Broncos (-275) will set you back nearly 3 times your potential return, and that’s way too much risk for not nearly enough reward on this Monday Night battle in the Mile High City.

PASS.

Against the spread

The BRONCOS -6 (-110) are a solid play in this prime-time game Monday.

Denver has dominated this series, winning 25 of the 32 meetings all-time, including 13-2 in the past 15 meetings since 1991. However, these teams have split 2-2 SU and ATS in the past 4 meetings, so be careful.

Over/Under

OVER 42 (-110) is the lean on Monday night in the Mile Hile City, but be very cautious and go with a half-unit play at most.

The Over is 2-1 in the past 3 meetings in this series, while going 4-2 in the previous 6 battles. The Over has hit in 3 of the past 4 at elevation in Denver, too.

For the Broncos, the Over has cashed in 6 of the past 8, while the total has hit high in 3 of the past 4 outings for the Browns.
