Following Saturday’s National Fast Food Day, the Bills are looking to put a New York favorite Shake Shack on the Chiefs. Will the Steelers enjoy tasty french fries from Wendy’s in victory, or the Ravens put a Chipolte smoked hot chilli pepper pounding on Pittsburgh?
Nine of KC’s last ten games have been decided by single digits. Kansas City is also 7-0 this season in games decided by 7 points or less as they continue to find fortunate ways to win including last week’s blocked field goal on the last play of the game in a 16-14 win over the Broncos. Before last Sunday, teams had a 1-54 record this season when finishing with a negative EPA (Expected Points Added). It’s a metric used to evaluate the impact of a play on the game’s score by estimating the difference in expected points before and after the play. The Chiefs tomahawked that trend again. Kansas City is also 14-3 straight up and 17-1 against the spread (ATS) as road underdogs since 2016.
Despite the Chiefs-Bills game total being a most popular over bet, the Playbook Sports Totals Tipsheet has a number of situational factors and trends that suggest less scoring than expected.
Bob Stoll of Dr. Bob Sports provides additional matchups and advance stats in the Ravens (7-3) vs. Steelers (7-2) AFC North first place showdown in Pittsburgh.
Player Prop: Bet Ravens RB Derrick Henry over 5.5 receiving yards. Henry has forced a league-high 59 missed tackles. The Steelers run defense will slow him more than most teams, but Pittsburgh’s defense is allowing .27 EPA per target to opponents running backs, which ranks No. 28 in the league.
Dr. Bob Sports also has a best bet on the Rams over the Patriots Sunday with New England’s offensive line a real problem. Both tackles rank poorly by Pro Football Focus in pass blocking efficiency. The Patriots interior offensive line rank even worse and the Rams have some stronger defensive lineman in pass rushing efficiency, and top-10 in defensive yards per rush allowed.
The Ravens league-best running game is thriving with RB Derrick Henry leading the AFC in rushing (1,120 yards) – nearly twice the next closest AFC rusher, J.K. Dobbins (670) of the Chargers. Henry will take over the league-rushing lead Sunday and pass Eagles RB Saquon Barkley (1,137). Ravens MVP favorite and duel-threat QB Lamar Jackson (+110) has also accumulated +103.0 expected points added on dropbacks, the 2nd-most EPA generated by a quarterback in a six-game span over the last nine seasons.
Following the big game betting in NFL Week 11 action, the Bills have a bye week and the Steelers travel to Cleveland to battle the Browns on Thursday Night Football. The Steelers are a -3.5 point favorite on the Week 12 lookahead lines.
