Jacksonville Jaguars @ Baltimore Ravens -13 (-107)
December 20, 1:00pm, M&T Bank Stadium
This game isn’t going to knock anybody’s socks off, but the Jacksonville Jaguars visiting the Baltimore Ravens seems like a sure-fire recipe for a low-scoring game.
The Jacksonville Jaguars offense hasn’t been as bad as you might expect when compared to some other teams, but it’s mediocre at best. There’s been a revolving door of quarterbacks all season with veteran journeyman Mike Glennon currently starting. He’s been pretty meh, and although James Robinson might be the feel-good story of this season, the season has been lost for the Jaguars for some time now.
The Baltimore Ravens, on the other hand, are in danger of missing the playoffs for the first time since 2017. They were recently involved in a shootout, where they barely beat the Cleveland Browns, who look poised to replace the Ravens in this year’s playoffs.
The Jaguars have nothing to lose, which means they will most likely turn the ball over a lot. The Ravens have everything to lose, so their defense will need to stay tight.
I think the Ravens blowout the Jaguars this weekend and keep the total score low
Pick: UNDER 46.5 Total Points (-107) (888sport)
San Francisco 49ers @ Dallas Cowboys (+3) (-109)
December 20th, 1:00pm, AT&T Stadium
Okay, so the Dallas Cowboys are 4-9 as we approach Week 15, and somehow still have a chance to not only make the playoffs, but to win their division and have home-field for the Wild-Card round. Only in America (literally…).
The San Francisco 49ers have been ravaged by injuries all year and realistically don’t have much of a chance to make the playoffs. No one would mistake the Dallas Cowboys for a good team, but I think they can pull of an upset over the 49ers this weekend.
I’m not reading too much into their slaughtering of the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 14. I’m just more inclined to bank on the Cowboys’ offense over anything that the 49ers have to offer.
The Cowboys have issues with their offensive line, and Ezekiel Elliot looks like a shell of his former self, but the 49ers only managed to score 15 points on the Washington Football Team. Nick Mullens is a lackluster quarterback to say the least, and the Cowboys are looking much better as of late, with Andy Dalton playing efficiently.
888sport offers good value on the Moneyline for Dallas. Take it.
Pick: Dallas Cowboys To Win Moneyline (+125) (888sport)
Kansas City Chiefs (-3) (+145) @ New Orleans Saints
December 20th 4:25pm, Mercedes-Benz Superdome
This matchup is one to look forward to this weekend. The Kansas City Chiefs and the New Orleans Saints are two of the best teams in the NFL, and these two teams may headline Super Bowl LV in February 2021.
The Kansas City Chiefs have been rockin’ and rollin’ all year long, and it’s highly likely that Patrick Mahomes claims his second MVP trophy. The 500-million-dollar man has thrown for 33 touchdowns and just five interceptions. He can wreak havoc on the Saints, who just lost to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 14.
But I’m convinced that the Saints’ loss to the Eagles was an aberration and that they’ll bounce back this week and upset the Chiefs. The Chiefs are just 5-11 ATS against NFC opponents in their last 16 games, so they may not play at the same level they do when facing their weaker AFC victims. It’s also worth noting that the Saints are a strong team at home, losing just one of their last six games at home.
It’s a tough matchup, but bettors will find great value on the Moneyline for the Saints this weekend.
Pick: New Orleans Saints To Win Moneyline (+145) (888sport)
This week’s parlays are riskier than usual, but there’s great value here with some good picks. We’ve got the Saints getting their mojo back at home against the Chiefs, the Cowboys upsetting the 49ers, and the Ravens annihilating the Jaguars in a low scoring game. Let’s go!
