Daniel Collins’ (SPJ) (11-3) & Kate Constable’s (6-8) Week 15 NFL Best Bet

The King should feast this week vs the Bengals

Derrick Henry Over 88.5 Rushing Yards (-110)

DANIEL: The King cashed me out last week. And I am going straight back to him in yet another massive AFC North matchup.

The Bengals have one of the worst rushing defenses in football and if Ravens OC Todd Monken learned anything from the Ravens Thanksgiving Day loss to Cincinnati, it should be to not be stubborn & feed the King. I expect 20+ carries and another big day for Henry.

KATE: If there were ever a spot to trust Derrick Henry, it’s this one. Cincinnati has been garbage against the run, especially at home, giving up more rushing yards per game in their own building than any team in the league. They also sit bottom-five in rushing touchdowns allowed, which usually signals a defense getting bullied at the line of scrimmage.

Henry’s box score from two weeks ago against these same Bengals doesn’t look impressive with just 60 yards, but don’t let that fool you. He averaged 6 yards per carry in that game. Baltimore just failed to feed him. With Lamar Jackson clearly not at full strength, the Ravens don’t have the luxury of leaning on a banged-up quarterback to run the offense. They need a steady ground game, and Henry is exactly the guy to provide it.

Chef T’s (8-6) NFL Week 15 Best Bet

Stefon Diggs o49.5 Receiving Yards (-115)

Buffalo gives up some of the most yards to wr1 and he already had 12 targets and 140+ yards against them earlier this year.

Nate Hornung’s (7-7) NFL Week 15 Best Bet

Sam Darnold leads the Seahawks as their starting QB this season - 49ers Seahawks Picks

Sam Darnold leads the Seahawks at home in a great matchup with Indianapolis

Seattle Seahawks TT Over 27.5 (-118)

The Seahawks have been cruising and I don’t see the Colts’ defense stopping them on Sunday. Seattle leads the NFL in points per play, while also ranking fifth in yards per play. They protect their quarterback, move the ball with ease, and put up tons of points.

Seattle leads the league in yards per pass, and they should be able to exploit a bad Colts’ secondary. Indianapolis is fourth worst in third down conversions allowed and passing yards conceded per game. Against Seattle’s great rushing defense, they shouldn’t be able to chew much clock, meaning the Seahawks should possess the ball plenty.

The Seahawks have scored 28 points in six of their 10 wins this season, including scoring 35 in a loss and ending on 27 and 26 total points in separate games. Four touchdowns should be a piece of cake.

Colby Marchio’s (8-6) NFL Week 15 Best Bet

Browns +7.5 (-110)

Quick and simple: with temps in Chicago expected to dip below zero on Sunday, I don’t see many points coming from either side. The Bears are also coming off a heartbreaking loss in one of their biggest games of the season, and that snapped a five-game winning streak. With another matchup against Green Bay on deck, I expect their focus to be more on destroying the Packers than the Browns.

John Hyslop’s (7-7) NFL Week 15 Best Bet

Tony Pollard 12+ Rush Attempts (-138)

I know this thing is -138 and that’s a lot of juice, but whatever. Anytime we have a sure thing, we bet it. That’s been the rule since we were kids. Everybody knows that. The thing with this one is, the Titans know that the only way they can move the ball against San Francisco is on the ground. It is what it is. Lucky for them, they just handed the ball to Pollard 1000 times last week, and it worked. There’s no way they forgot about that in one week. Feels easy.

Varun Sharma’s (10-4) NFL Week 15 Best Bet

Puka Nacua looks to take advantage of another great matchup

Puka Nacua o99.5 Rec Yards (-110) 

This week Nacua faces a Lions defense that runs man coverage at the highest rate in the NFL. Against man coverage, Nacua ranks 1st in targets per route run, 2nd in yards per route run and 3rd in fantasy points per route run. Detroit also ranks 5th in single-hi coverage and Puka’s averaging 4.68 yards per route run (1st) against that exact coverage.

In last year’s matchup we saw Nacua finish with 4 receptions on 4 targets for just 35 yards. He barely played 30% of the snaps and left early due to a knee injury. Cooper Kupp finished that game with 14 catches on 21 targets for 110 yards. Stafford threw the ball 49 times in that game. This year Nacua’s healthy and he’s the Rams’ new high volume receiver.

Brad Blakemore’s (9-5) NFL Week 15 Best Bet

Matthew Stafford o282.5 passing yards (-115)

Everyone loves getting a little revenge. And Stafford gets the chance to spank his former team at home, where he is averaging 282.2 yards per game. Lions may be able to tame the rush, but are leaky when teams air it out. 

Danny Burke’s (9-5) NFL Week 15 Best Bet

Josh Allen

Can Josh Allen lead the Bills to avenge their early-season loss to New England?

Bills ML (-110)

Despite losing in the first meeting, Buffalo outplayed New England in many offensive categories. If they limit the turnover damage, unlike in their first matchup, then Josh Allen and the Bills should be able to exact revenge in Week 15. 

Adam Kaufman’s (10-4) NFL Week 15 Best Bet

Jaguars -13.5 (-110)

Don’t do it. Seriously. You shouldn’t bet this. It has Jets backdoor cover or Jags inexplicable no-show written all over it. 

Still, here we are.

I can’t stand the Jaguars. I’m not buying in on the four-game winning streak or now very realistic pursuit of the AFC South crown. It starts at QB and the years long hype that’s followed Trevor Lawrence from Clemson.

But, this is a prove-it opportunity. Show the world – with Missouri’s Brady Cook making his first career start on the other side – that you’re worthy of the praise and belief.

Lawrence should see little to no pressure. Travis Etienne has a plus matchup. The Jags’ defense is ripe to turn Cook over. Breece Hall is facing an improved run-defense. 

Jacksonville has never been this large of a favorite during the Lawrence Era. If ever there were a time to invest, it’s now.

Tristan Vieira’s (12-2) NFL Week 15 Best Bet

Commanders vs Eagles NFC Championship Game Predictions, Odds & Best Bets

Can Terry McLaurin returning get the Commanders over the line?

Commanders ML (+124) 

I am back this week with another line no one will want to touch. This Commanders team has looked awful in recent weeks including being blown out on the road to the Vikings last week. The offense has been struggling and the team has not won a game since the first week of October. The Giants have all the flash in the match up, high profile QB looking to make a name for himself.

I believe there is a bigger game at play, draft position. With Terry McLaurin back, I expect the Commanders offense to get back rolling against a poor passing defense, and the Giants to lose another game to secure a top 3 pick. 

Sukh Brar’s (7-7) NFL Week 15 Best Bet

Cooper Kupp o16.5 Longest Reception (-115)

Not the best hit rate overall as it has hit in only 6 of the last 10 games including missing in three of four. However, this Colts team gives up multiple big receptions a game over the last three weeks. Indianapolis also gives up the third most opponent completions per game.

So, Kupp should have plenty of opportunity as the defence focuses on JSN & the run. Additionally, Cooper Kupp has hit his over 16.5 longest reception in 8 of his last 10 games at home.
