bet-nfl-week-17-same-game-parlays-2

The Raiders, Dolphins and Jaguars all profile as strong passing-game targets this week. Las Vegas draws a Giants defense bleeding explosive plays, Miami faces a Buccaneers unit that continues to funnel and struggle against the pass, and Jacksonville gets a Colts secondary that has been one of the league’s weakest at producing perfect coverage. Each matchup creates clear paths to ceiling outcomes, making all three spots attractive to attack.

Over the years, PFF data scientists have conducted extensive studies to better understand and predict player performance.

The Saints defense has quietly emerged as one of the NFL’s most dominant units, and the market has been slow to catch up. With New Orleans ramping up its blitz rate and Cam Ward struggling both under pressure and in obvious passing situations, the matchup sets up as a difficult one for a Titans offense likely forced to chase points.

Derrick Henry powered the Ravens’ playoff push with a historic night at Lambeau Field, rushing for a season-high 216 yards and four touchdowns in a 41-24 win over the Packers, the most rushing yards ever by a visiting player there. Baltimore dominated on the ground to keep its postseason hopes alive, while Green Bay’s third straight loss helped Chicago clinch the NFC North despite the Packers not punting for a second consecutive game.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are the hottest team in the NFL in late December, a statement few football fans would have expected to be true at the start of the season. And that's because Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence is in the midst of the best stretch of his career.

C.J. Stroud threw two long touchdown passes on Houston’s first two drives, and the Texans held on for a 20-16 win over the Chargers to clinch a third straight playoff berth and their eighth consecutive victory. Los Angeles struggled to capitalize on turnovers and missed kicks as Houston’s defense pressured Justin Herbert throughout, snapping the Chargers’ four-game winning streak and handing the AFC West to Denver.

Bo Nix capitalized on a clever Sean Payton fourth-down playcall, throwing a go-ahead touchdown to R.J. Harvey after a Chiefs offsides penalty lifted the Broncos to a 20-13 win at Arrowhead. Denver’s defense sealed it late as the Broncos moved closer to clinching the AFC West while beating Kansas City there for the first time since 2015.

Dallas is set up to lean on the run with Javonte Williams likely seeing volume in a positive game script, while Jahmyr Gibbs’ receiving role could be muted again against a blitz-heavy Vikings defense that forces backs into pass protection. And Isiah Pacheco faces a brutal matchup against an elite Broncos run defense, making it difficult for him to clear his rushing yardage prop.
