    Best Bet

    Packers/Lions over 52.5 (-110)

    8:15PM: Packers offense has been clicking the last 2 games, scoring over 30 points in both games. And the Lions average the most points per game. The first game between these 2 teams was 24-14 and went under by 10 points. The trend that I follow is go opposite of the first game between divisional opponents. Teams look to make adjustments from the first game to the 2nd. They played just over a month ago and the Lions have put even more defensive players on IR since that game. And this game is indoors, expect the Packers to open up the playbook to keep up with the Lions at home.

    Best Bet

    Auburn Tigers +3.5 (-110)

    9:15PM: Auburn is coming off a Maui Invitational tournament win. They had to go through a gauntlet in Iowa State, UNC, and Memphis. Duke has struggled against ranked opponents this year going 1-2 so far. Their one win was on the road and two losses were at a neutral site. I do think they have gained experience and maturity being a young team since the beginning of the year. This game is in Cameron Indoor but if this was a neutral site game this would probably be a pick em. I do think this is a tough spot Auburn coming off the Maui tournament and now going on the road to face a top ten team but I think they can handle it.

    Best Bet

    New York Knicks -4.5 (-110)

    7:30PM: It’s NBA cup tonight. Knicks and Magic are both still in the running for winning Group A in the East at 3-0. Basically winner of this game moves onto the next round. The winners of each of the 3 groups plus 1 wildcard will move onto the next round. The tiebreaker for the wild card is point differential. Right now the Magic are 3-0 and have a +60 differential. Knicks are 3-0 with a +15 point differential. If the Magic lose this game, they will probably be the wild card in the East as their point differential is 31 points more than the next highest. Knicks need to win this to move on as they have the worst point differential out of the teams that are still in the running. Some of their players have said how much they want to win this tournament so I think they come out firing today.

    Best Bet

    Browns/Broncos under 41.5 (-110)

    8:15PM: Broncos have one of the best defenses that no one talks about. Browns also have a pretty good defense. Broncos lead the league in sacks and the Browns are top 12 in sacks. Browns have only scored over 20 twice this whole year. Broncos have averaged 33.5 points per game in the last 2 but they haven’t played a good defense in both of those games. It’s time for them to come back to Earth when playing a good defense. I think the Broncos do win this game but by thinking this game is going to be low scoring just lay the points with the Broncos.

    Best Bet

    Washington Commanders -6 (-110)

    1:00PM: Washington is playing Tennessee today at home. Tennessee is playing their second straight road game, with last week coming off a win in Houston. They are coming off a high scoring road divisional win, something that hasn’t happened much this year. Commanders on the other hand are limping into their absurd week 14 bye. Commanders have also lost 3 straight games 2 of which at home. Commanders need a win to keep pace with everyone in the wild card race. They are holding onto the 7th spot in the wild card with the Cardinals, Rams, 49ers and Bucs all right behind them. They need to end this stretch on a good note before heading into the bye week.

    Best Bet

    Miami Dolphins +3.5 (-120)

    8:20PM: Miami is rolling right now winning 3 in a row, with the last 2 winning by 2+ plus scores. Yes they are playing in a cold weather environment and we know how they play in cold weather. Packers played the Niners last week and they really haven’t been able to beat them in the past. I think they looked forward to that game and wanted to get some deamons off of them. Now they have an AFC team coming into town playing on a short week. I’ll take the points in this one.
