The bet is $11.50 to win $10. New England is playing New York Jets on Sunday at noon. The previous game was played in the Meadowlands. Bill Belichick has beaten the Jets 13 times in a row. They have won 16 of the past 17 games in this series. The Patriots have also won three of last four games following their bye week.
The Atlanta Falcons are on the slide. Chicago Bears are a different team. Marcus Mariota is who we all thought he was. Justin Fields has been doing his best Lamar Jackson impersonation. The Bears defense will have to defend the mobility of Mariott.
Tennessee is a good bet to beat Green Bay. The Titans have won seven straight games against the spread. It will be below freezing at Lambeau Field. There is no precipitation expected. The under 41 is expected, but it is not likely to be very effective.
