It was a nice Week 10 for our NFL best bets, as they ended up going 3-1. The Bengals, Saints, and Steelers all got us to the cash-out window. Our loner loser was on the Colts, who keep looking worse each week.
Get a head start on Week 11 of the NFL season by diving into our betting guide. We have three early best bets on tap, and we can't wait to share them with you below! Enjoy the action and best of luck!
WASH at PHI: 8:15 PM EST (THURSDAY)
Washington is coming off a tough loss to Pittsburgh last Sunday, but I think this is a good get-right spot for them. Philly dismantled a banged-up Dallas squad, but I'm still not completely sold on them as a whole.
The Eagles secondary has been playing lights out all year long, but the D-line ranks just slightly above average against the run. Philly allows 4.4 yards per carry, so look for Jayden Daniels, Brian Robinson, and Austin Ekeler to do some damage from a wide variety of angles.
Philly's offense is very good, but they've struggled to protect Jalen Hurts for most of the season. The Eagles offense ranks just 30th in sack rate allowed, while Washington's D ranks a respectable 6th in sack rate. Philly may win, but not by a wide margin!
SEA at SF: 4:05 PM EST
I love getting a full touchdown with a Seattle team that I'm not quite ready to write off just yet. The Seahawks should be well-rested and much healthier since they enjoyed a bye in Week 10. San Fran just barely squeaked by a heavily injured Tampa Bay squad by three points.
A lot of folks will not like this play simply because the Niners beat the Seahawks by 12 points just a few weeks ago. Even with that defeat, I still don't think Seattle should be getting a full touchdown coming off their bye. I make this line closer to 5 or 5.5, so it's a full play on the Dirty Birds.
Seattle should get DK Metcalf back in the lineup, which will be a huge boost to the offense. The former Ole Miss star joins with Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba to form what is arguably the best receiving corps in the NFL.
CIN at LAC: 8:20 PM EST
Cincy has to be gutted after coming up just short last week against Baltimore on Thursday Night Football. The Bengals decided to go for two instead of forcing OT in that game but were unsuccessful. Still though, I can't help but admire Zac Taylor for having the guts to go for the W.
This is a remarkably good bounce back spot for Cincy, a team that I have rated just a smidge higher than the Chargers. The Bengals also need this game a whole heck of a lot more than the Bolts. There's also a chance that Tee Higgins should finally be back in the lineup for Cincy, which should give the offense even more firepower.
Jim Harbaugh loves to run the football, but I don't see him having too much success against a Bengals defense that allows just 4.2 yards per carry (6th). Give me the Bengals and let's hope that Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase continue to flummox opposing defenses.
