Pittsburgh Steelers (10-3) at Philadelphia Eagles (11-2), 4:25 p.m. Sunday

The Line: Eagles minus-5.5/Whole: 44.5

What’s the line telling you:

It seems the Eagles have an enormous downside within the locker room. A.J. Brown and Jalen Hurts are beefing once more, and that is positively not the suitable time for this to occur, with the Eagles going up towards the Pittsburgh Steelers this Sunday. The Steelers, surprisingly, have been one of many higher groups within the NFL this yr for a group that had a projected Vegas win whole opened at 7.5. They’ve already gained 10 video games and have the second-best report within the AFC. This can be a very harmful Pittsburgh group. The Eagles have the very best protection within the NFL, and the Steelers are usually not that far behind. Offensively, the Eagles common a half-yard per play this season, and since Russell Wilson has been the constant starter for Pittsburgh, the Steelers are averaging 28 factors per sport.

Backside line:

The sport, surprisingly, has the Eagles as 5.5-point favorites, which for my part is just too many factors. The Steelers plus-5.5 is the suitable facet. That is most likely the healthiest the Steelers have been all yr. I believe the group that has the ball final will most likely win this sport. It’ll most likely be a discipline aim sport. I might not be shocked if Pittsburgh gained the sport outright. The Eagles are a really, superb soccer group. Profitable 10 video games in a row isn’t straightforward within the NFL. We like Pittsburgh right here plus the 5.5 factors.

Prop bets for the sport

Jalen Hurts anytime landing, minus-115

Najee Harris anytime landing, plus-125

Jalen Hurts over 194.5 passing yards, minus-114

Saquon Barkley below 99.9 speeding yards

Najee Harris over 54.5 speeding yards, minus-110

Buffalo Payments (10-3) at Detroit Lions (12-1), 4:25 p.m. Sunday

The Line: Lions minus-2.5/Whole: 54.5

What’s the line telling you:

This can most likely be probably the most thrilling sport of the weekend. The whole shot up from 53.5 to 54.5, so Vegas is anticipating a variety of factors can be scored on this sport.

Backside line:

I personally like Buffalo to bounce again from its loss final week in Los Angeles. I don’t suppose you’ll need the two.5 factors in any respect. I believe Buffalo wins the sport outright. Detroit is basically banged up offensively and defensively. The Payments have a plus-15 well being rating higher. Detroit is limping into one. Each groups have the highest two offenses within the NFL. Their yards-per-play metric is nearly an identical.
