MIN +6.5 over TB
Tampa Bay has shown nothing offensively or defensively their past few games that give any indication that they should be such a heavy favorite against a playoff contender.
This game will likely come down to if Kirk Cousins can make enough big plays and avoid mistakes, as the Bucs do carry the best run defense in the NFL to match up with Dalvin Cook. The Vikings will cover the 6.5 points we were given and might even outright beat the overrated Bucs.
IND -2.5 over LV
The Raiders are a tough team to bet for or against because of they have been all over the place one week to the next. The much more consistent Colts on the other hand have an opportunity to solidify their playoff positioning and separate themselves from the pack chasing them. We like the Colts to win by at least a field goal.
NO -7 over PHI
Up until last week with the Falcons late attempted comeback, the Saints had won their previous four games by double digits and haven’t missed a beat with Taysom Hill at QB.
The Eagles are turning to Jalen Hurts this week after another disastrous overall performance last week against the Packers, but he won’t be able to cure a bad all around offense and defense that is giving up over 25 points per game. Saints by 10+.
