NFL Week 12 Sunday Games | Betting lines and odds
Here are the NFL Week 12 picks, betting lines, and odds for Sunday’s games as of 10:15 PM ET on November 28.
Las Vegas Raiders (-3) at Atlanta Falcons
Time and Channel: 1:00 PM EST, CBS
The Raiders will have been disappointed that they could not pull out a win against the Chiefs, but taking it right to the final moments is extremely promising for this team’s future. Meanwhile, the Falcons were embarrassed by the New Orleans Saints in Week 11. The Raiders should be able to move the ball with ease and cover this Week 12 betting line.
NFL Week 12 Picks and Predictions: Raiders 35, Falcons 30
Carolina Panthers at Minnesota Vikings (-3.5)
Time and Channel: 1:00 PM EST, FOX
It was an impressive performance from the Panthers’ defense in Week 11, as they shut out the Detroit Lions to ensure their PJ Walker-led offense did not need to do more than the basics to get a win.

The Vikings were embarrassed last week by the Dallas Cowboys and will be looking to bounce back. The Panthers shut down the Lions run game in Week 11, but they will have their work cut out doing the same to Dalvin Cook. Look for the Vikings to control the time of possession on their way to a victory.
NFL Week 12 Picks and Predictions: Vikings 28, Panthers 18
Los Angeles Chargers at Buffalo Bills (-4.5)
Time and Channel: 1:00 PM EST, CBS
The Chargers have done nothing the easy way for as long as anyone can remember, but 2020 has been especially up and down. They made the Jets look competitive last week and will need to be significantly improved against a much better AFC East team. The Bills come off their bye, having lost to Arizona in a game that will have stung. They need to bounce back in this one, but it will not be easy.
NFL Week 12 Picks and Predictions: Bills 35, Chargers 33
Miami Dolphins (-6.5) at New York Jets
Time and Channel: 1:00 PM EST, CBS
The Dolphins look set to take on the Jets without quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, but Ryan Fitzpatrick should be more than capable of quarterbacking this team to victory. The Jets need to move the ball with consistency, which could be extremely tough against a very good Dolphins defense.
NFL Week 12 Picks and Predictions: Dolphins 24, Jets 13
Arizona Cardinals (-2) at New England Patriots
Time and Channel: 1:00 PM EST, FOX
The Patriots being underdogs at home is not something that we see very often, but it is no surprise the way they are playing this year. Their offense has failed to put together consistent performances, and their defense is significantly weakened.
If Kyler Murray is healthy, he should be able to have his way with this defense. The Patriots can take away one receiver, but the Cardinals have three they can attack teams with. The Patriots also do not have many players who can match Murray stride for stride when it comes to him scrambling.
NFL Week 12 Picks and Predictions: Cardinals 24, Patriots 21
Tennessee Titans at Indianapolis Colts (-3)
Time and Channel: 1:00 PM EST, CBS
It was a tight affair until the Titans unraveled down the stretch when these two teams last met in Week 10. Mike Vrabel is not the type of coach to allow sloppy mistakes regularly, and this team will be on a wave after beating the Ravens in overtime.
The Colts have been a frustrating team this season. Their defense has been superb and will stop the Titans from running away with the game. However, the offense has been extremely up and down and will be without Jonathan Taylor for this matchup.
NFL Week 12 Picks and Predictions: Titans 23, Colts 16
New York Giants (-6) at Cincinnati Bengals
Time and Channel: 1:00 EST, FOX
The matchup between the Bengals and Giants looked to be a perfect opportunity to compare Daniel Jones and Joe Burrow side by side. However, Burrow is now out for the year, and the Bengals are unlikely to generate much offense.
The Giants are in the thick of the NFC East race, and if they want to take advantage, this is a game they cannot afford to lose. Look for the Giants to do enough to get the win and cover this Week 12 betting line.
NFL Week 12 Picks and Predictions: Giants 28, Bengals 13
Cleveland Browns (-7) at Jacksonville Jaguars
Time and Channel: 1:00 PM EST, CBS
I am not sure at what point this Week 12 betting line would be considered too high. The Jacksonville Jaguars upset the odds in Week 1 of the NFL season, but since then, they have lost nine straight and enter Week 12 at 1-9. The Browns are starting to get rolling, especially on the ground. Both Kareem Hunt and Nick Chubb should have their way with the Jaguars’ defense in this matchup.
NFL Week 12 Picks and Predictions: Browns 24, Jaguars 20
New Orleans Saints (-14.5) at Denver Broncos
Time and Channel: 4:05 PM EST, FOX
The odds for this Week 12 NFL game have been a somewhat interesting topic, with Taysom Hill under center for the Saints. Can Hill be as efficient against the Broncos’ defense, or did the Falcons defense give us a false impression of what he can achieve as the starting QB of the Saints?

Denver upset the Dolphins last week, but the Broncos will be without all of their quarterbacks and rely on current practice squad wide receiver Kendall Hinton to be their quarterback. RB Royce Freeman is expected to be the emergency backup QB.
NFL Week 12 Picks and Predictions: Broncos 17, Saints 28
San Francisco 49ers at Los Angeles Rams (-6.5)
Time and Channel: 4:05 PM EST, FOX
Based on their recent form, the odds of this NFL Week 12 game seem to be correct. However, the Rams have already been beaten by the 49ers in 2020, and the 49ers are getting some pieces back this week. This game could be closer than many think, and I would not be shocked if the 49ers can put enough pressure on the Rams to come out on top.
NFL Week 12 Picks and Predictions: 49ers 27, Rams 24
Kansas City Chiefs (-3.5) at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Time and Channel: 4:25 PM EST, CBS
This is a matchup between two teams that seem to be trending in different directions. The Chiefs are playing high-octane football, and their defense can step up when they need it.
Meanwhile, the Buccaneers defense was picked apart at times in Week 11 by Jared Goff. Their offense has also struggled in recent weeks. Unless the Buccaneers challenge the Chiefs receivers physically at the line, the Chiefs will run away with this one.
NFL Week 12 Scores and Predictions: Buccaneers 24, Chiefs 35
Sunday Night Football
Here are the NFL Week 12 picks, betting lines, and odds for Sunday Night Football as of 10:15 PM ET on November 28.
Chicago Bears at Green Bay Packers (-8.5)
Time and Channel: 8:20 PM EST, NBC
It is always an event when the Bears and Packers meet, but as these Week 12 NFL odds demonstrate, this game is not expected to be all that tough for the Packers. The Packers’ offense will struggle to move the ball efficiently, but on the other side, the Bears will likely struggle to exploit the Packers’ woeful run defense. Take the Packers to win and cover this Week 12 NFL betting line, but do not be surprised if the result is in doubt in a low-scoring affair entering the fourth quarter.
NFL Week 12 Scores and Predictions: Packers 21, Bears 10
Monday Night Football
Here are the NFL Week 12 picks, betting lines, and odds for Monday Night Football as of 10:15 PM ET on November 28.
Seattle Seahawks (-5.5) at Philadelphia Eagles
Time and Channel: 8:20 PM EST, ESPN
The Seahawks defense has largely been good for fixing struggling offenses, but is the Eagles offense beyond repair at this point?
Offensively, the Seahawks should have no major problems moving the ball. How close this game ends up will likely come down to what Carson Wentz can do as opposed to what we see from Russell Wilson.
NFL Week 12 Scores and Predictions: Seahawks 35, Eagles 23
Tuesday Night Football
Here are the NFL Week 12 picks, betting lines, and odds for Tuesday Night Football as of 10:15 PM ET on November 28.
Baltimore Ravens at Pittsburgh Steelers (-7.5)
Time and Channel: 8:00 PM EST, NBC
It has been a topsy-turvy week for both of these teams. They both will have got prepared mentally to play Thursday, only for the fixture to be moved. Now there are more disturbances, and who knows how these teams will be set mentally for this important clash.
The Ravens pushed Pittsburgh close in their last matchup, but Baltimore will likely be without Lamar Jackson and other members of their offense, while it appears likely the Steelers will be without James Conner. The potential loss of Jackson is huge, and if this game goes ahead, the Steelers should be clear favorites.
NFL Week 12 Picks and Predictions: Steelers 30, Ravens 16
