NFL Week 15 Picks Against the spread for every game
Chargers @ Raiders
Point spread: Raiders -3.5
Point total: 54.5
Moneyline: Chargers +140, Raiders -175
Early in the week in our Sharps vs Square report, we noticed that the smart money was pouring in on one team. We used that to isolate the early winner in this game. Read the report here.
Texans @ Colts
Point spread: Colts -7
Point total: 52.5
Moneyline: Texans +270, Colts -345
In the last meeting between these two teams, the Colts needed a last-second fumble by the Texans to hold on to the win. Since then, the Texans look like they have given up and the Colts are cruising to the playoffs. Jonathan Taylor is established as the best back on this team and TY Hilton has a connection with Phillip Rivers.
The COlts have dominated this series as the Texans are 3-12-2 ATS in their last 17 meetings. Indy is focused on finishing strong and running away with this division. They show up and dismantle a Texans team that has thrown in the towel.
Colts -7.5 [BET NOW]
Lions @ Titans
Point spread: Titans -10.5
Point total: TBD
Moneyline: Lions +450, Titans -670
The Detroit Lions got some good news when they heard that QB Matthew Stafford will play in this game, despite suffering an injury in his last outing. The Titans are the favorite to win this game, but they have to get better on defense. They have allowed the most passing touchdowns of any team this year (28) and have the fewest sacks (14) and that is good news for the Lions offense. The Lions are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 road games against a team with a winning home record and they are worth a bet in this game.
Lions +9.5 [BET NOW]
Jets @ Rams
Point spread: Rams -16.5
Point total: 44.5
Moneyline: Jets +750, Rams -1430
The Jets are bad, really bad. When they play against a better team they fall flat. Adam Gase is a dead man walking and this team plays on the west coast again. If you bet on the Rams hopefully you got it early as the line was already overinflated due to how bad the Jets looked against Seattle. The Jets have been an underdog of at least 10 points, they’ve gone 1-6 ATS and the only way they cover in this game is if the Rams overlook this game.
The Rams are 17-8-1 ATS in their last 26 games as a favorite and although this spread is really high, we cannot suggest a play on the Jets.
Rams -17 [BET NOW]
Buccaneers @ Falcons
Point spread: Bucs -4
Point total: 51.5
Moneyline: Bucs -225, Falcons +175
The Buccaneers look as though they are focused after the bye week. They put a beating on the Vikings last week and will look to deliver a similar fate to the Atlanta Falcons. Believe it or not, the Buccaneers will have revenge on their minds. In the past seven games between these two teams, the Buccaneers are 1-6 straight-up.
The Falcons have lost three of the last four games and scored just 42 points combined in those three losses. The loss to the Chargers was particularly ugly, showing just how bad things have become for the Falcons, especially on offense. The Buccaneers are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games as a road favorite and the Falcons are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 home games.
There is every reason to believe that the Buccaneers will be motivated for this game.
Buccaneers -6 [BET NOW]
Patriots @ Dolphins
Point spread: Dolphins -2.5
Point total: 42.5
Moneyline: Patriots +110, Dolphins -134
The Dolphins beat the Patriots in the season finale a year ago. Although Bill Belichick and the Patriots still have a (very) slight chance to get in the playoffs, it’s the Dolphins that are playing better football. Everyone is running to the books to bet on Miami as they have an NFL-best 10-3 ATS mark for the year. But a correction is coming.
Belichick publically announced his trust in Cam Newton as QB and he has had 10 days to prepare for this game. After getting embarrassed on Thursday night football, the Patriots are looking for a better outing in Miami. IN a hard-hitting rivalry game with the lowest betting total on the board, it’s best to bet on the underdog. The Pats plus the points is the bet to make in this game.
Patriots +2 [BET NOW]
Seahawks @ Washington
Point spread: Seahawks -4
Point total: 44.5
Moneyline: Seahawks -205, Washington +165
Washington is a very good football team with a bright future, but don’t get fooled by last week’s victory. Washington relied completely on defense and looked lost offensively without running back Antonio Gibson. As a team, they were out-gained in yardage (344 to 193), yards per play (4.5 tp 3.1), passing yards (236 to 95), rushing yards (108 to 98), first downs (21 to 12), total plays (76 to 62) and time of possession. If that happens this week, Washington will not stand a chance.
Seattle got an easy win against the Jets and that allowed this team to get back on track. Russell Wilson is 11-1 straight up in his last 12 games in the Eastern Time Zone and overall the Hawks are 22-7 straight-up and 18-9-2 ATS in that spot. Seattle will rack up the yards and the points as they win and cover the spread.
Seattle -4 [BET NOW]
Bears @ Vikings
Point spread: Vikings -3.5
Point total: 46.5
Moneyline: Bears +150, Vikings -182
You never know what you are going to get when these two teams take to the field. Both teams have been inconsistent on both sides of the ball all season long. However, it is the Vikings that are in line for a spot in the playoffs. The Bears only have a 20 percent chance to make the playoffs, but they will still be motivated to take down the Vikings.
The Bear’s biggest problem has been on offense, but that has improved with the return of running back David Montgomery. Mitch Trubisky has been playing better over the past two weeks, throwing for seven touchdowns and just two interceptions, with the help of a successful running game. The Bears are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight-up win of more than 14 points and they know how to ride the momentum after a big win.
The Vikings may be the better team, but betting on a favorite that is 0-4 ATS in the last four games is just asking for trouble.
Bears +3.5 [BET NOW]
Jaguars @ Ravens
Point spread: Ravens -13
Point total: 46
Moneyline: Jaguars +600, Ravens -1000
The Ravens are on a roll. They are winning big and QB Lamar Jackson is playing like he did when he won the MVP award. This week they host one of the worst teams in the NFL. This is a soft spot for the Ravens. They have played so many big games on prime time television that this is the kind of game where the players will come in cocky. This is not good news if you want them to cover two touchdowns.
Of course, the Ravens want to win out to assure playoff positioning, but this game will be hard to get motivated for. It’s a short week but the status of wide receivers Marquise Brown, Miles Boykin, and James Proche II have been cleared up.
The Ravens activated WRs Hollywood Brown, Miles Boykin and James Proche from the Reserve/COVID-19 list. They’re on track to play tomorrow.

Gardner Minshew has something to prove and he threw multiple touchdown passes in five of his first eight games this year. The Ravens tend to struggle on the short week and as home chalk. They are 6-14 ATS in their last 20 games as a home favorite and 5-12 ATS in their last 17 games when playing on Sunday following a Monday night game.
Jaguars +13 [BET NOW]
Point spread: Cardinals -5.5
Point total: 48
Moneyline: Eagles +200, Cardinals -250
Jalen Hurts made it very clear that he should be the starter of the Philadelphia Eagles. That was last week. This week he gets another difficult task going up against the Cardinals. But starting Hurts over Wentz is an easy decision considering that head coach Doug Pederson is 10-4 ATS when Wentz is not playing. It’s a hard sell backing the Cardinals as chalk, even though they are at home. The Cardinals are 6-18 ATS in their last 24 games as a home favorite. They are also 2-7 ATS in the past nine home games where they’ve been favored by three points or more.
With Hurts in the lineup, the Eagles are running the ball and that will work again when they play the Cardinals. The Cardinals are 18th in run defense (119.5) and 20th in opponent rush average (4.5). They’ve given up 44 runs of 10 yards or more, including 17 in the last four games. If they cannot stop the run, the Eagles will control the time of possession and the game.
Eagles +5.5 [BET NOW]
Chiefs @ Saints
Point spread: Chiefs -4
Point total: 51.5
Moneyline: Chiefs -200, Saints +163
Betting on the Chiefs has been difficult this year since they are 0-5 ATS in the last five games. It will help that they are just small three points favorites in New Orleans against the Saints. New Orleans will get Drew Brees back under center but they will be without wide receiver Michael Thomas. The Saints do not know what they have in Brees at the moment and it may be risky betting on him in the first game back. It doesn’t help that the Saints are 1-4 ATS against a team with a winning record.
Kansas City has the edge on offense as Travis Kelce will be able to expose a Saints secondary that has struggled against opposing tight ends. The Chiefs are that much closer to home-field advantage in the playoffs with the Steelers suffering another setback. The Chiefs are 11-4-1 ATS in their last 16 road games against a team with a winning home record. Kansas City wins the biggest game of the week and finally covers the spread.
Kansas City -3 [BET NOW]
49ers @ Cowboys
Point spread: 49ers -1.5
Point total: 45.5
Moneyline: 49ers -121, Cowboys +100
The 49ers looked awful a week ago. They moved the ball on offense but too many turnovers plagued a team that has been hindered by injuries all season long. A trip to Dallas is usually a big-time event, but not this week. The Cowboys are flexed out of Sunday night and come in embarrassed although they finally put together a good outing against the Bengals a week ago.
The betting public has given up on the Cowboys as 64 percent of the money in this game is on San Francisco. This is even more stunning when you consider that the 49ers are 0-4 ATS in the last four games as a favorite. The 49ers are 3-7-1 ATS when playing against a team with a losing record and the Cowboys are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games as a home underdog. The Cowboys will be without Zeke today.
RB Ezekiel Elliot is inactive for the Cowboys.
I’m not sure that moves the needle much. Elliot hasn’t been great this year, and the Cowboys should be perfectly content moving the ball through the air after what we saw from #49ers vs Bills. https://t.co/lq11pAH19a

Believe it or not, the Cowboys still have a chance to make the playoffs. They are better without Zeke and they make the most of it with a big win against the 49ers.
Cowboys +1.5 [BET NOW]
Browns @ Giants
Point spread: Browns -3.5
Point total: 45.5
Moneyline: Browns -200, Giants +165
