Sunday
Bears at Browns
Time: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (Fox), stream on fubo (try for free)
Open: Browns -3, O/U 37
“The Browns offense has had to deal with losing key pieces all season, to the point that Joe Flacco and Jerome Ford are being expected to take them to the playoffs. But they’re behind a patchwork offensive line that’s down its top three offensive tackles for the rest of the year, and Ethan Pocic is now ruled out center while top guard Joel Bitonio continues to manage a knee issue. Perhaps Flacco and Co. can have success against bad defenses, like they did last week against the Jaguars, but this Bears defense has played well for a significant portion of the season, holding opposing offenses to an average of 271 yards over its last eight games. For reference, the vaunted Browns defense leads the league with 263 yards allowed per game, and the Bears’ mark would be second over a full season.”
That’s CBS Sports Fantasy and gambling editor R.J. White, who has twice cashed big in the world’s most prestigious handicapping tournament, the Westgate Las Vegas SuperContest. R.J. has delivered a 56.5% hit rate on his Vegas contest picks over the last eight seasons, And he shares his five weekly picks on SportsLine. We can tell you he’s leaning in favor of the Bears, but you’ll wanna head over to SportsLine for a complete breakdown of his Week 15 contest picks.
Buccaneers at Packers
Time: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (CBS), stream on Paramount+ (click here)
Open: Packers -3.5, O/U 42.5
“Green Bay had its three-game winning streak snapped by Tommy DeVito and the Giants on Monday, but the Packers are set up to bounce back this week at home against the Buccaneers. Tampa Bay’s secondary is giving up 7.2 yards per pass attempt this season, which is tied for the third most in the league. They’ve also struggled to get off the field, ranking in the bottom third of the league on third down. At Lambeau Field, Jordan Love has a high completion percentage, passer rating, and averages roughly 40 more passing yards per game this season than he does on the road. Green Bay is also 25-14 ATS at home under Matt LaFleur.”
CBS Sports NFL writer Tyler Sullivan foresees a rebound from Green Bay. Here’s his full breakdown of the Week 15 slate.
Texans at Titans
Time: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (CBS), stream on Paramount+ (click here)
Open: Texans -3.5, O/U 43
With Nico Collins inactive and no Tank Dell, the Texans struggled mightily against the Jets last week, recording season-lows in total yards, points scored, and third-down conversions in their biggest defeat of the year. Due to a concussion, we’re not even sure whether C.J. Stroud will play, and injuries kept Collins, Blake Cashman, George Fant, Laremy Tunsil, and Will Anderson Jr. out of practice on Wednesday. Tennessee, meantime, is 4-1 at home this season and sporting vintage Oilers gear!”
Jordan Dajani, a resident Titans expert, predicts Tennessee to win its third straight game in four weeks. You can read his complete critique of Week 15 here.
Jets at Dolphins
Time: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (CBS), stream on Paramount+ (click here)
Open: Dolphins -13.5, O/U 40.5
Chiefs at Patriots
Time: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (Fox), stream on fubo (try for free)
Open: Chiefs -10.5, O/U 37.5
“Yes, the Patriots were able to gut out a solid win in Pittsburgh last week and do have a rest advantage this week, but let’s not mistake that win as some sort of corner being turned in Foxborough. New England is still a bad football team and the offense still has plenty of warts (the Patriots were sneakily shut out in the second half last week). Meanwhile, the Chiefs are at a crossroads after dropping two straight and have lost a grip on the No. 1 seed in the AFC. They’ll be heading up to Foxborough with plenty of motivation to get back on track (and possibly let out a little frustration). While New England’s defense has been a bright spot this season, it can be thrown on. The Patriots are also 0-5 ATS in their last five games following a win.”
