Baltimore Ravens vs. New York Giants
Sunday, December 15, 2024 – 01:00 PM ET at MetLife Stadium
The AI Model believes the Ravens will beat the Giants 29-12 on the road. That’s a large margin but still large enough for the Ravens to cover a 15-point spread as favorites. Consider the Ravens in a potential blowout.
Drew Lock is Scheduled For The Start
The Giants will use Drew Lock in this weekend’s matchup against the Ravens. Lock started the last game against the Saints, going 0-for-8. But he turned things around and found success late in the game to give the Giants a chance in the 14-11 loss.
Still, the Giants have so much inconsistency offensively that they will likely not be able to keep up with the Ravens, who have Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry on the roster.
Ravens Can’t Wait For This Game
The Baltimore Ravens lost to the Eagles 24-19 and then had a bye week last week. This was a game the Ravens expected to win and probably should’ve won. But missed field goals and bad decisions down the stretch led to the loss.
They’re excited to return to the field and prove their dominance. Against the Giants, the Ravens will be able to do that.
The Pick
Even at -15, I’ll back the Ravens against the spread. This game should be a monumental blowout.
NFL Pick: Ravens -15 (-110) at Caesars Sportsbook
Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Philadelphia Eagles
Sunday, December 15, 2024 – 04:25 PM ET at Lincoln Financial Field
The AI Model predicts the Steelers will only lose to the Eagles, 24-20. As 4.5-point underdogs, the Steelers have the edge tonight.
This In-State Rivalry Will Be Close!
The Pittsburgh Steelers are 4.5-point underdogs despite being 10-3 on the season. The Steelers have won four of their last five games and won their latest road game against the Bengals to start December. Russell Wilson is back to playing like the Super Bowl quarterback he once was, and the defense has held opponents to 18.31 points per game.
Every Mike Tomlin-coached team is disciplined and wins. He doesn’t get enough credit for the success he’s brought to Pittsburgh, and the line for this game shows it.
Fighting In Philly?
The Philadelphia Eagles might be 11-2, but there’s been confirmation that Jalen Hurts and A.J. Brown aren’t on the same page right now. That certainly won’t help as we get closer to the playoffs.
Ultimately, the passing game has added just 180.62 yards per game in the air this season. It’s not good enough to win big games. Hurts must be more accurate, and the Eagles must trust their quarterback more. Until that happens, don’t bet on the Eagles in these matchups.
The Pick
Let’s take the Steelers at +4.5.
NFL Pick: Steelers +4.5 (-110) at Caesars Sportsbook
Buffalo Bills vs. Detroit Lions
Sunday, December 15, 2024 – 04:25 PM ET at Ford Field
Our AI Model suggests the Bills and Lions will score 55 points in this Week 15 showdown. However, Bet365 is carrying a 54.5 number. The Over has the most value in this matchup.
The Bills’ Defense Collapsed!
The Buffalo Bills have scored 30.54 points per game this season. Meanwhile, the defense has allowed 20.62 points per game. They’ve been an elite team all year. But last week, the Bills gave up 44 points to the Rams in regulation and lost 44-42.
The defense didn’t earn any takeaways and couldn’t do anything right. Yet, the offense still provided 42 points. It was the fifth consecutive game with at least 30 points for the Bills.
The Lions Can Do What The Rams Did
The Lions have scored 32.08 points per game. They’ve been even more consistent on offense than the Bills this season.
Buffalo has had a couple of close calls over the last two games. But at least they got back to scoring 34 points in a win against the Packers last week. The offense has gained 243.77 yards per game in the air and another 151.08 yards on the ground. It’s one of the most balanced attacks in the NFL.
The Pick
Let’s consider the over between the Lions and Bills, especially with this game in Detroit, not Buffalo.
NFL Pick: Bills/Lions Over 54.5 (-110) at Bet365
