NFL betting – Point spreads, over/unders for week 12 – odds, lines, payouts

23 November 2022

Week 11 was fruitful in exposing some frauds and reaffirming belief in a team or two who are finally living up to expectations – and we’re looking forward to putting some of the new realizations to work in week 12.

Below run the point spreads and over/unders for the week 11 NFL games.

• Buffalo Bills -9½ at Detroit Lions, over/under 54½ points
• New York Giants +9½ at Dallas Cowboys, over/under 45½
• New England Patriots +2½ at Minnesota Vikings, over/under 42
• Houston Texans -13½ at Miami Dolphins, over/under 47
• Denver Broncos -2 at Carolina Panthers, over/under 36
• Tampa Bay Buccaneers -3½ at Cleveland Browns, over/under 43
• Atlanta Falcons +4½ at Washington Commanders, over/under 41
• Baltimore Ravens -4 at Jacksonville Jaguars, over/under 43½
• Cincinnati Bengals -2 at Tennessee Titans, over/under 42½
• Las Vegas Raiders +3½ at Seattle Seahawks, over/under 47½
• Los Angeles Chargers -4½ at Arizona Cardinals, over/under 47½
• Los Angeles Rams +14½ at Kansas City Chiefs, over/under 44
• New Orleans Saints +9½ at San Francisco 49ers, over/under 43
• Green Bay Packers +7 at Philadelphia Eagles, over/under 46½

NFLbets’ hot(tish) takes:

• Like most NFL bettors, NFLbets loves wagering on Thanksgiving Day all out of proportion to the games’ excellence, but this year appears to offer the best of both worlds: Some great betting opportunities and a couple of close games. (Were pretty sure the Cowboys’ll blow out the Giants, though).
• In week 11, the Baltimore Ravens were the sole double-digit favorite and lost ATS, bringing the record of favorites of 10½ points or more to 2-7 ATS on the season. This week, those tricky oddsmakers set three ’spreads at 9½, while the Chiefs are giving two touchdowns to the Los Angeles Rams, the dictionary definition of “hapless.” Make it easy, why don’tcha?
• Last week, NFLbets got militant about betting against the Titans, then on a 7-0 ATS run; we lost and Mike Vrabel’s guys moved to a history-threatening 8-0. This week, the Bengals are favored against them by … just 2? Time to take out a second mortgage…
