Why These Picks?
LV Raiders v HOU Texans: I’m not a fan of double digit spreads, friends – but this should be a blowout, and I expect it will get ugly quick. The Raiders are coming off a shut out loss to the Philadelphia Eagles (31-0) and I won’t be surprised if today’s encounter with the Texans yields a similar result. Houston comes into this matchup on a 6-game win streak, their defense has been elite, and their offense has been the definition of solid. The Raiders don’t stand a chance here in my opinion. My money’s on the Texans to cover at home.
CIN Bengals v MIA Dolphins: Cincinnati is going to be eager to bag a win simply because they’re coming off an embarrassing shut out. And to be frank, this is the best chance they have to show out – Tua is on the bench and Miami is dealing with plenty of uncertainty. That said, the Bengals have allowed a whopping 63 points over their last 2 outings. I think the Over cashes in spades here, but I’ll also toss a sprinkle on Cincinnati to cover.
LA Chargers v DAL Cowboys: I expect this game to have playoff vibes simply because the Chargers are still playing for something. With LA bringing their offensive A-game to the table in conjunction with their defense, I won’t be surprised if they win outright. The Cowboys have allowed a staggering 78 points in just their last two games – I’ll take the Chargers to cover.
