Here are the Best Matchups Worth Betting this Weekend!
We are officially a little more than a week away from Christmas and Week 15 of the NFL season kicks off on Saturday with 3 games before a full slate of games on Sunday and Monday.
It truly is the most wonderful time of the year and the NFL makes it that much better.
As the last quarter of the season begins, the games begin to mean more as teams either are punching their tickets to the playoffs, fighting for a spot in the dance or are seeing their season some to a close.
In this beautiful slate of games full of wonderful matchups, here are the lines that stood out to me the most and how I would bet them.

Minnesota Vikings vs Indianapolis Colts
The Vikings battle the Colts in the first game of the triple header on Saturday.
HC Jeff Saturday has rejuvinted the Colts a bit since he took over as the interim Head Coach 3 weeks ago but it hasn’t been enough to climb the Colts back into the playoff hunt in the AFC.
If they lose this game, however, they are for sure done in the AFC so there is no doubt the Colts will be fighting all game long from start to finish.
The Vikings on the other hand are are 10-3 and are sitting at the top of the NFC North. They dropped their last game against the Lions in Detroit, so they are looking to get back on track here against the mid-range Colts.
Consensus Pick
Colts +3.5 (-104)
Best Bet
Vikings -3.5 (-118)
I am a firm believer that this Colts team is done.
This spread number is telling that Vegas thinks the Colts have the capability to hang around here and keep this game close. I disagree.
Give me the Vikings here to come out and give the Colts all they can handle. Kirk Cousins, Dalvin Cook and Justin Jefferson will be too much to handle for this Colts defense and the Vikings will pull away and win by a touchdown.
Dallas Cowboys vs Jacksonville Jaguars
The Cowboys travel to Jacksonville to take on the resurgent Jaguars.
The Jags picked up a huge division win against the Titans last week to put them back in the AFC South picture and gives promise to the last month of their season.
QB Trevor Lawrence has been fantastic the past 2 weeks, and looks like he is taking the next step in becoming the franchise QB the Jags had hoped for.
Their task this week is the powerful Cowboys and their dynamic offense.
The Cowboys were humbled a bit last week, having to come from behind against another member of the AFC South, the lowly Texans.
They were able to grab a last minute touchdown to beat the Texans to grab their 6th win of their last 7 games.
Consensus Pick
Jaguars +4.5 (-110)
Best Bet
Cowboys -4.5 (-110)
I love the Cowboys here to give the Jaguars all they can handle and more, with Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard both having lots of chances to have success on the ground and through the air.
The Cowboys should overpower the Jaguars in this one and cover the spread.
Tennessee Titans vs Los Angeles Chargers
The Titans travel across the country to take on the Chargers in a huge AFC matchup against two 7-6 teams.
The Titans have lost 3 in a row for the first time since 2018 and are fighting through injuries and poor offensive effectiveness.
The Titans still have workhorse and superstar running back Derrick Henry and they will lean on him in LA against the high powered Chargers.
The Bolts picked up a huge win last week against a very talented Dolphins squad and looked awesome doing it.
Justin Herbert has been spectacular the last month and has kept the Chargers afloat, even with all the injuries on the offense.
With WRs Mike Williams and Keenen Allen back, and Austin Ekeler still rolling out of the backfield, the Chargers are back to full strength and ready for a late season run.
Consensus Pick
Titans +3 (-105)
Best Bet
Titans +3 (-105)
This is going to be a dog fight.
If the Titans allow this game to turn into a shootout, they will lose. And they know that.
They are going to want to control the clock and run Derrick Henry early and often. The Chargers allow the most Yards after contact in the NFL and are bottom 5 in Rushing yards allowed.
On the other side, the Titans are allowing the second most yards through the air and if this turns into a shootout, this could be a bad day for the Titans.
I think this game will be close and the Titans will hang around and possibly win outright, on the back of the King.
Enjoy Week 15 in the NFL and this awesome slate of games.
