NFL Week 12 Betting Recap
There was a full 16-game slate for NFL week 12, but we’re still waiting on the Ravens-Steelers game, which is now scheduled for Wednesday afternoon, although who knows if they’ll play.
Underdogs (What is an underdog?) continue to dominate this season. In week 12, dogs went 10-5 ATS and 5-10 SU. Betting every dog ATS this season has been profitable, as they’re hitting at 56.8% (100-76 ATS).
Unders hit in nine of fifteen games during week 12 and there have now been one more under than over during the regular season (83-82). Keep that in mind when betting totals this week.
This week, the Buccaneers and Panthers are on a bye week.

There’s no line out yet for the Cowboys-Ravens game, which is scheduled for next Tuesday.
The Rams game has seen a lot of line movement. Several favorites have also jumped up, including the Seahawks and Packers. I’m surprised big favorites have been pushed up early after last week.

NFL Week 13 Point Spreads That Stand Out
The Raiders were just blown out, but look for them to bounce back against the lowly Jets. At this point, anything below 10 points and I’m betting the favorite when playing NYJ.
Even the Lions should be able to defeat the Bears. Even on the road. We’re getting +3 points as well, so we have a bit of a safety net in case the Bears offense somehow figures things out.
It’s all bad in Philly right now and the team is suffering because of Wentz. This is a big spread to cover, but the Packers at Lambeau are always tough and Rodgers is having a great year.
Lastly, the Bills on the road at just -2.5 is enticing, although playing the Niners is always tough. Both teams are coming off hard fought wins, but the Bills are the more complete team.
