Rotation # 453
Cowboys -6.5 over Lions (win)
The Lions will be down a few receivers today on offense which will make it harder to score today. Dak Prescott returns for the Cowboys today and should take advantage of a weak and injured Lions Defense. Dallas lost to their division rivals last week and will be looking to forget that memory with multiple scoring drives today. Take the Cowboys.

Rotation # 458
Bengals -6.5 over Falcons (win)
Did you know the Atlanta Falcons are the best team in the NFL when it comes to covering the spread? The Falcons are a perfect 6-0 against the spread this year, and I believe they will do down big today. Atlanta has many running backs on IR and will have trouble on the road today. Cincinnati is loaded on offense and should have a balanced running and passing game led by Joe Burrow and protected by their solid offensive line. Take the Bengals.

Rotation # 463
Packers -4.5 over Commanders (loss)
Green Bay is one of the luckiest teams in not having to play a team with their number one quarterback. Carson Wentz is nothing to write home about, but he still was the starter, and today, it will be hard for Taylor Heinicke to operate behind an offensive line that can’t protect the quarterback. The Green Bay defense should create turnovers. Aaron Rodgers looked terrible last week, but he has a chance to redeem himself today and put the bad loss to the Jets in the rearview mirror. Look for Dillon and Jones to have big games on the ground, setting up Rodgers to make big plays down the field. Take the Packers.

Rotation # 469-470
Chiefs/49ers Over 48.5 (win)
The 49ers will start Christian McCaffrey today after they traded for him last week. McCaffrey is a great runner but also excellent at catching the ball. Look for Jimmy G to attack an injured Cheifs secondary. Patrick Mahomes will look to take advantage of a 49ers team that also has many defensive injuries. Look for a lot of scoring drives in this game. Take the Over.

Rotation # 472
Chargers -5 over Seahawks (loss)
Geno Smith has been decent this year, but he is not a quarterback you have nightmares about. The Seattle running game is hurting, and their offensive line is not great. The Chargers should bring the house and shut down the Seahawks. Both teams have injuries today, but San Diego has a well-balanced attack that should be able to run the ball with Austin Eckler, and Justin Herbert will take his deep ball shots. I expect San Diego to win this game with their smothering defense. Take the Chargers.
