Packers vs Ravens

The Packers meet the Ravens in what’s likely the most interesting game in NFL Week 17. Packers haven’t booked a spot in the playoffs so far, so they’ll be looking for a win at home. Lamar Jackson is doubtful for the Ravens, and that will be a big problem for Baltimore offensively. Jordan Love is out, too, so this might be a game of unders.

The moneyline is in the Packers’ favor, and we can’t look past Green Bay for the win. Sorry, Ravens fans. The team started the season as a contender, but inconsistent play and injuries have derailed the postseason train. That loss against the Patriots last week hurt a lot. Better luck next year, we guess.

Colts vs Jaguars

The Jacksonville Jaguars have had a stellar season so far with a record of 11-4. AFC South is potentially on the line, so this will be a cautious game against the Colts.

With the playoff race in full swing for the Colts, once among the Super Bowl contenders, it will be a difficult match for Indianapolis to keep postseason hopes alive. It’ll be a mountain of a task, though, so it’s best to explore the unders market in the BetPlays sports betting section.

We’re just glad we’re having a division rivalry such late in the season. Bettors should also explore some player props, as sone of the top BetPlays NFL Week 17 odds lie there for this clash.

Bengals vs Cardinals

The Bengals have been far more impressive with Joe Burrow in the lineup. They should have enough in the tank to beat the sluggish Cardinals. Arizona is also struggling defensively, opening up offensive opportunities for the Bengals.

As an underdog, the Cardinals have better NFL Week 17 odds. But that’s a heavy mountain to climb, especially with them being out of the playoff race. Our recommendation for this match are player props NFL Week 17 picks, especially on Joe Burrow’s side. Canadian bettors looking at moneylines can go with either team, but the Bengals are a clear favorite here. Maybe a look at the NFL totals Week 17 odds provides better value, with over 45.5 being the best bet.

A high-profile match with two elite offenses, the Bills and Eagles will lock horns on Sunday at 4:25 PM ET. Saquon Barkley takes the top spot in player props Bills vs Eagles predictions, as he’s facing a Buffalo team that ranks 30^th in rush defense.

The Eagles have secured the NFC East crown, and are entering the playoffs as Super Bowl contenders. Josh Allen remains one of the best players in the league and an MVP pick. Look at the total points in a match that will come close. Weather conditions may play a big part in your NFL Week 17 predictions, making this game one of the better NFL Week 17 betting picks.

49ers vs Bears

The 49ers and Bears enter this match-up with the same record of 11-4. San Francisco’s offense has been nothing short of stellar, but so is the Bears’ offense. There’s no heavy favorite in this game, so bettors should take a look at other NFL betting options for this game, including rushing yards for the QBs.

During NFL Week 16, the 49ers blew past the Colts, while Chicago beat the Packers. It’s another exciting match to follow in our NFL Week 17 predictions, with overs and unders looking like a real possibility. Most experts go with 49ers NFL moneyline picks this week, but hey, Chicago has beaten expectations this season several times.
