NFL parlay odds: +1700
Ravens -3 (-115)
Baltimore is giving only a field goal against Cleveland because the visitors are without Lamar Jackson. Still, the visitors look like a considerably superior squad even with Tyler Huntley under center. Huntley is one of the better backup QBs in the league and just led his team to an overtime victory at Atlanta. The Ravens are otherwise in very good shape from an injury standpoint, too. Safety Kyle Hamilton went back in the game against the Falcons following a brief head injury and promptly produced a walk-off interception in OT. Meanwhile, the Browns’ momentum is gone following a loss to the Jets of all teams.
Panthers -3 (-115)
Even at home, this is a terrible spot for the Eagles. Jalen Hurts is on injured reserve and Saquon Barkley is out. Their offensive line is also in shambles, as Lane Johnson recently retired and Cam Jurgens was traded to Baltimore. Head coach Nick Sirianni’s team is also coming off an unusual travel week, as it played – and lost – in London this past Sunday. And what a loss it was, coming on the last play of the game against Jacksonville. As if that isn’t enough, Carolina is coming off a bye. Bryce Young and company have every reason to win and cover.
Giants ML (-106)
The Saints started strong with an overtime loss at Detroit followed by a win at Baltimore, but it has all fallen apart for head coach Kellen Moore’s crew. A three-game skid has the Saints at 1-4, a stretch that features three consecutive home setbacks. They do not play in the Mercedes-Benz Dome until November 8. Their woes may continue on Sunday in New York – even if the Giants are nothing special. Jameis Winston has several starts under his belt now and should do enough to extend the G-Men's unbeaten streak to four games.
Jets +7.5 (-112)
The Patriots have woken up from their early-season malaise, but -7.5 is a big number for a division-rivalry game. And the Jets aren’t terrible. They are 2-3 with two one-possession losses to Green Bay (in overtime) and Detroit plus a win last weekend over a decent Cleveland team. New York has been very good defensively, and it’s obviously even more difficult for a favorite to cover a big number in a low-scoring contest. Moreover, Geno Smith has not thrown a single interception this season. Mistake-free football generally allows your team to be competitive.
Bills ML (-250)
First of all, I’m not willing to give the -5.5 points. Buffalo is playing on a short week after surviving the Rams in an absolute thriller on Monday Night Football. The Bills remained out west, too, since they are visiting Las Vegas this afternoon. That means their practice week was a bit unusual. Still, they are the better team in this matchup and should win the game outright. I’m simply not betting on Kirk Cousins against Josh Allen. The Raiders started the season 3-0 but have crashed back down to Earth with losses to Kansas City and New England. They looked especially bad during last week’s 45-17 setback against the Pats.
