The best bets for NFL's Week 15 are Saints sweep, Bills-Dolphins, Steelers-Panthers teaser, BUFFALO -1 over Miami and Pittsburgh -9 over Carolina.

The Bills are now -1300 favorites to win the AFC East. The Dolphins' defense is like mangled-up Swiss cheese. Tua has some lingering ankle issues and Tyreek Hill has a new ankle injury. The Saints are going to sweep the Panthers. Steelers are playing against the Carolina Panthers in a teaser. It costs -120 to play a parlay.

Bills (-7.5) 29, Dolphins 17. Carolina Panthers vs. Pittsburgh Steelers. Mitch Trubisky will start for Pittsburgh. Kenny .5 Pickett has suffered a concussion for the second time in 2 months.

Panthers are playing against the Steelers.

Colts play Vikings on Saturday at 1 p.m. Eagles play Bears on Sunday at 12 p.,m., and the bet is $24.60 to win $20. Minnesota is 10-3, but they have lost two games in a row to teams with five wins or fewer in December.

Vikings are the favorite against the Colts. The Eagles have the second-best rushing offense and the sixth-worst run defense. Chicago has allowed more points than all but three teams. The Vikings are favored by 4 points. It took me a while to realize that a parlay with a four- and nine-point favorite gets the same odds as a teaser with one extra total point.

Eagles (-9) 26, Bears 14.

The Baltimore Ravens play Cleveland under 38.5 degrees on Saturday at 4:30 p.m. The bet is $22.

Week 15 NFL best bets are Saints sweep, Bills-Dolphins, Steelers-Panthers teaser and the temperature.

There is no score prediction for the NFL's Week 15.

NY Jets even over Detroit is a $22 bet. The game is on Sunday at 1 p.m.

The Jets are favored by 2 points against the Lions. The Lions have been hot, but they have only two road wins this season. Jets have won three of their past four home games against Bears, Bills and Dolphins. Robert Saleh thinks the Jets will face Buffalo again.

Jets will beat Lions. Bills will lose to Dolphins. Steelers will play a teaser game against Panthers.

Dallas is favored by 4.5 points over Jacksonville. The game is on Sunday at 1 p.m. Dallas beat Houston last Sunday. Jacksonville has won three of five games. Doug Pederson has a history of losing to the Cowboys.
