Week 12 NFL odds are live, and the best time to bet them is now — before the lines move.

Last week brought more frustration. PFF Greenline NFL and NCAA were positive against close, and our picks got an average closing line value of 0.4 points both in week 11 and on the season altogether, but we lost the Las Vegas Raiders (-0) and Green Bay Packers (-2.5), along with both teaser legs that satisfied the conditions of a Wong teaser.

Packers -2.5 was our Pick of the Week on the PFF Forecast, which lost closing line value and also lost. These picks are now 8-5 on the year.

It's time to rebound. Make sure you check PFF’s betting dashboards on Tuesday when our weekly model predictions go live, and check out PFF's best bets and Player props tool to find the very best value for Thanksgiving week.

Week 12 is a split week, with three games on Thanksgiving and the rest on Sunday and Monday. So there should be a little something for everyone here to make the holiday a little more enjoyable (and sweaty, too).

Week 12 Best Early NFL Bets

Teaser legs:

• Dallas Cowboys (-1.5) vs. Las Vegas Raiders
• Indianapolis Colts (+8.5) vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Wong teasers have not done particularly well as of late. But as a reminder, for a standard -110 teaser to have value, you need both sides to be expected to hit at a rate of 72.4% (the square root of the break-even 52.4% you need for the whole bet). If you’re getting -120, which is standard, then it’s 73.9%. Without handicapping games, you’re basically asking the six points to get you 25%. That’s hard to do if you’re not crossing 3 or 7 and/or the total is extremely low (i.e., points are worth more).
