Jalen Hurts did what many thought was impossible. He hosted the top team in the NFC, the New Orleans Saints, and not only did he cover the spread, he was able to win outright and give the Philadelphia Eagles a big win in his first start. Hurts' win was the big story of the week, but many bettors will points to the Ravens-Browns finish as one of the most exciting (or devastating) games of the week. The Ravens early a literal last-second cover when the Browns, down three, ran a play consisting of numerous laterals that ended in a safety. That stretched Baltimore's lead from three to five and ended up covering a -3 spread that otherwise would've pushed.

As always, the results of last week's games have shifted the NFL landscape a bit, and sportsbooks spreads and bets throughout the week are beginning to show that. Of course, it's important not to overreact to surprising results, like Hurts and the Eagles beating the Saints, as some of these overreactions create good line value for savvy bettors or people playing in NFL picks against the spread office pools can exploit.

In short, recency bias has a big impact on gambling and fantasy sports, so don't fall victim to too many short-term trends.

Looking ahead to Week 15, there are, per usual, a few quarterback questions. Matthew Stafford (ribs) is banged up and may not be able to play for the Lions against the Titans. Daniel Jones (hamstring) may be out of action again after returning for one game, struggling, and aggravating his injury. Drew Brees (ribs) is the other big name to watch, as his impending return could have a big impact on the Chiefs-Saints game that looks like the game of the week. The Ravens are also dealing with a couple of injuries to starters in the secondary and have their top WR, Marquise Brown, on the COVID list. If they can't get healthy before Sunday, the line for the Ravens-Jaguars game could be impacted by those injuries/illnesses.

NFL best bets for Week 15

New England Patriots (+1.5) at Miami Dolphins

Nfl Odds Spreads

This game feels eerily familiar to the Patriots-Chargers game from a couple of weeks ago in which the Patriots were underdogs but won by a score of 45-0. Bill Belichick has a sparkling 20-5 record against rookie QBs and he will surely find a way to keep Tua Tagovailoa off-balance in this crucial game. Yes, the Patriots' offense hasn't been good in recent weeks, but if they can just avoid crushing turnovers -- like Cam Newton's pick-six against the Rams last week -- and if they can be more efficient in the red-zone, they should have a chance to compete with the Dolphins and potentially earn a win. It won't be a blowout like the game against the Chargers was, but history says that taking Belichick against rookie passers is a safe bet.

Seattle Seahawks (-5.5) at Washington Football Team

Washington has put together an impressive four-game winning streak, but it may well come to an end against the Seahawks. While their stellar defense led by their excellent pass rush should be able to get some pressure on Russell Wilson, Washington's offense is completely lacking and will have trouble moving the ball against the Seahawks. QB Alex Smith (calf) and RB Antonio Gibson (toe) are both banged-up and while Smith might play, it doesn't seem like Gibson will. Without Gibson, the offense scored just nine points against the 49ers, so unless they can perform much better, they'll have trouble going punch-for-punch with a Seahawks team that averages the third-most points per game in the league (30.2). High card flush online. The Seahawks should be able to win this game by a TD, so at a sub-six number, we'll roll with Seattle.

New Orleans Saints (+3) vs. Kansas City Chiefs

The Saints are coming off a disappointing loss to the Eagles, but they should have a chance to bounce back in a toss-up game against the Chiefs. As good as Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs are playing offensively this year, they have had some outings where the offense has been slowed down and just two weeks ago, they put up their lowest point total of the season (22) against the Broncos. The Saints defense, despite having some issues with Jalen Hurts, had allowed 16 or fewer points in five straight games before facing off against the rookie in his first start. They're bound to continue playing well and if the offense can keep pace with the Chiefs, the Saints should have a chance to cover -- if not, win -- this game at home. Drew Brees' status will be something to watch here, as he could return this week though it doesn't seem likely, but in a coin-flip type game, I'll take the points all day.

Super Bowl LV is just hours away and the Kansas City Chiefs and Tampa Bay Buccaneers are set to play on football's biggest stage. Tom Brady will try to add to his NFL record book, while Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs will look to become the first team to win back-to-back Super Bowls since Brady did it with the Patriots in 2003 and 2004.

Chiefs vs. Buccaneers Week 12 matchup (Rotoworld)

The Week 12 Final Score Is Misleading

  • The final score could've been closer to 38-24 if the Chiefs hadn't coughed up a red zone fumble and settled for two red zone field goals, if the Chiefs kept their foot on the gas in the second half instead of chewing clock, or if Mike Evans hadn't scored two garbage-time touchdowns in the fourth quarter. This game was a textbook example of how the final score doesn't tell the full story.

Kansas City Chiefs projections

  • Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs QB: Patrick Mahomes‘ projection looks crazy — nobody ever projects for 350 yards — but the Chiefs are very likely to throw 35-50 times against the Bucs. (Projection here)
  • Chiefs Wide Receivers: WR Tyreek Hill went so nuclear against the Bucs in Week 12 (12-263-3) that I spent the 30 minutes it took to clip all of his touches from that game (video). The Bucs switched up their coverages then, but Hill kept getting open. I don't think the Bucs have a single corner capable of hanging with Hill when they go to Cover 3 or Cover 1 man. (Projection here)

Tampa Bay Buccaneers projections

  • Tom Brady, Buccaneers QB:Tom Brady also projects well. The Bucs may run the ball early — Kansas City's defense faced the 28th-highest neutral pass rate this season because the Chiefs are typically light in the box — but Tampa's projected game script favors a pass-heavy game as three-point dogs. (Projection here)
  • Buccaneers Wide Receivers: Before the NFC Championship, Antonio Brown was reportedly 'day-to-day'. It's unknown if he'll play in the Super Bowl, but I left him for now. Even at full health, Brown is not an every-down player. He lines up wide only in three-receiver sets and could even be pushed by Scotty Miller, who scored a long touchdown last game.
