We’re headed to Week 12 in the NFL. By now, we know the pretenders and contenders in this league, and so does the AI Model. So, I checked in with the model and found the best three bets for this week’s NFL slate.
Picks Summary
- Lions -7.5 (-110) at Bet365
- Buccaneers -5 (-110) at Bet365
- Broncos -5.5 (-110) at Caesars Sportsbook
Detroit Lions vs. Indianapolis Colts
Sunday, November 24, 2024 – 01:00 PM ET at Lucas Oil Stadium
The AI Model thinks the Lions will add a 28-20 win over the Colts this weekend. You can find the Lions at -7.5 via Bet365. There’s value in Detroit, even on the road.
The Lions Are Super Bowl Favorites
For the first time, the Detroit Lions are favorites to win the Super Bowl. The Lions are 9-1 and just added a 52-6 win over the Jaguars.
Detroit has had multiple games with at least 52 points. They’ll face a Colts defense that has allowed at least 23 points in three of the last four games.
The Lions should dominate offensively yet again.
Anthony Richardson’s Inconsistencies
The Colts added a win behind Anthony Richardson against the Jets. However, I’m not ready to get excited yet. He hasn’t shown any consistency since joining the league.
His confidence has undoubtedly improved. But going up against the Lions is going to be a difficult task.
Give me Detroit at -7.5. The Lions continue to amaze.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. New York Giants
Sunday, November 24, 2024 – 01:00 PM ET at MetLife Stadium
The Buccaneers are expected to defeat the Giants 23-16 per the AI Model. Yet, you can find the Bucs at -5 at Bet365. There’s tremendous value in the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Tommy DeVito Time
The Giants have benched Daniel Jones for Tommy DeVito. DeVito gave the Giants life last season but ultimately was a little overrated. The fans enjoyed the gimmicks and his hustle. But after all, he was just an average quarterback for the Giants last season.
DeVito should instill more confidence into the Giants’ organization for the final weeks. Still, New York isn’t built to win. The roster isn’t just in need of a quarterback.
Could Mike Evans Return?
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are 4-6 on the season. However, they have a solid remaining schedule, only playing against another team above .500.
They say teams try to avoid looking ahead. But the Buccaneers know what’s at stake. They can win every game other than a matchup against the Chargers and make the playoffs.
In addition, Mike Evans may return to the lineup for the Bucs after missing multiple weeks due to an injury.
The Buccaneers will have the momentum heading into this one. They’ve been close over the last few weeks during a massive stretch against elite teams. Now they’ll get the bad teams. The Bucs will take advantage.
NFL Pick: Buccaneers -5 (-110) at Bet365
Denver Broncos vs. Las Vegas Raiders
Sunday, November 24, 2024 – 04:05 PM ET at Allegiant Stadium
Our AI Model suggests the Broncos will earn a 22-16 victory over the Raiders. According to our model, the Broncos are expected to win by six but are just 5.5-point favorites at Caesars. Denver’s red-hot and clearly a contender now.
Denver Is For Real
The Denver Broncos proved they’re for real after a 38-6 win at home against the Atlanta Falcons.
The Broncos previously lost two games before earning the win against Atlanta. But Denver was super close to beating the Chiefs in the game previously. Bo Nix looks like he’s developed and will now take on a Raiders secondary that has been one of the worst in the NFL.
The Raiders, at 2-8, have also been one of the worst tackling teams in the NFL. The only thing the Raiders are good at right now is stopping the run. But the Broncos won’t mind passing the rock around with an accurate Bo Nix.
The Losses Keep Piling Up
The Las Vegas Raiders are currently 2-8. In their last couple of games, They have lost multiple possessions. The Raiders have changed quarterbacks throughout the season, but something has yet to really work.
It’ll be Gardner Minshew this weekend. However, he’s averaged below 200 passing yards per game. This is also because the Raiders are typically down early and need to throw the ball.
I don’t trust the Raiders at all right now. Grab the Broncos at -5.5.
