PITTSBURGH STEELERS AT JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS
November 23rd – 1:00 pm ET – EverBank Field
The Pittsburgh Steelers have looked impressive to say the least as they aim to go 10-0 on the season when they take on the Jacksonville Jaguars.
They enter Sunday’s contest as 10-point favourites but rightfully so considering the Jaguars haven’t won a game since opening weekend. With big wins against the Baltimore Ravens and Tennessee Titans already this season, the Steelers are proving to be legitimate Super Bowl contenders.
They will need to be careful though as this could be a trap game with Baltimore looming in a short week on Thursday evening. The Steelers should have no problems getting the job done and winning the game, but it could prove to be closer than most are anticipating. Take the Jaguars to cover the 10 points but lose the game. The under may also be worth laying money on with the total set quite high.

TENNESSEE TITANS AT BALTIMORE RAVENS
November 23rd– 1:00 pm ET – M&T Bank Stadium
Both the Baltimore Ravens and Tennessee Titans will be eager to put disappointing losses last week behind them. The Titans lost an important game to division rivals the Indianapolis Colts, while the Ravens came up short on Monday night against the New England Patriots.
With both teams sitting at 6-3 on the year, neither one will be overly concerned about missing out on the postseason. However, they are fully aware that they can’t afford to let many more games slip away – especially against conference foes.
The home team enters the game as 6.5-point favourites in a game that should be rather intense. The Ravens are more than capable of knocking off the Titans, but the spread seems rather high considering they have identical records and Baltimore is coming off of a short week and getting set to play again next Thursday against the Steelers. Go with the Titans to cover the spread.
PICKS: Tennessee
ODDS: Baltimore (-6.5)
Over/Under: 49
MIAMI DOLPHINS AT DENVER BRONCOS
November 23rd– 4:05 pm ET – Sports Authority Field
Nobody expected the Miami Dolphins to be this good coming into the campaign, but after nine games they find themselves with an impressive 6-3 record and just half a game behind AFC East leaders the Buffalo Bills.
With Buffalo off on a bye week, Miami could join the Bills atop the division with a win in Denver against the Broncos. They’ve won five straight games, including big victories on the road against the Arizona Cardinals and San Francisco 49ers.
Denver is never an easy place to play, but Miami certainly won’t be intimidated and will be full of confidence when they enter the field. They are 3.5-point favourites, but should be able to cover given their incredible defense. Go with the visitors to make it six straight while covering the points. The under may also be worth looking at considering how inconsistent Denver’s offense has been this season.

GREEN BAY PACKERS AT INDIANAPOLIS COLTS
November 23rd– 4:25 pm ET – Lucas Oil Stadium
The Green Bay Packers haven’t come into many games as underdogs in recent years, but that’s the situation they find themselves heading into Indianapolis on Sunday afternoon. The Colts enter the contest as two-point favourites after an impressive win against the Tennessee Titans last week. They solidified themselves as a top team in the AFC with the victory and will be up for the challenge presented by the Packers.
Aaron Rodgers and company have looked good on the road so far this season, losing just one contest away from home. There will be limited fans in attendance as well so the usual noise factor of playing on the road in a dome shouldn’t be much of an issue.
Go with Green Bay to pull off a close victory as they try and cement their place atop the NFC. The over also looks like a smart bet despite being set at 51 points.

LOS ANGELES RAMS AT TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS
November 24th– 8:15 pm ET – Raymond James Stadium
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are still trying to find their identity under Tom Brady. They have been one of the most inconsistent and unpredictable teams in the league, but will be happy with their win against the Carolina Panthers last week.
They host the Los Angeles Rams on Monday night in what should be an entertaining contest. Los Angeles sits at 6-3 heading into their battle with the Buccaneers who are now 7-3. Both teams are fighting for top spot in their respective divisions and understand how important a win on Monday night will be in ultimately reaching their goal.
While the spread may seem high considering how good both teams have been, the Rams have struggled on the road with all three of their losses coming away from home. If Tampa Bay are at their best, they should be able to get the job done and cover the four points.
PICKS: Tampa Bay
ODDS: Tampa Bay (-4)
Over/Under: 46.5
