Nov 30, 2017

The Minnesota Vikings are cruising toward the NFC North title but they will be tested by back-to-back road games against a pair of hot contenders in the NFC South. The Vikings put their seven-game winning streak on the line Sunday when they visit the reigning NFC champion Atlanta Falcons, who have come alive with three consecutive victories.

Minnesota owns a three-game cushion atop the division and has the second-best record in the conference, but the memory of failing to make the playoffs after starting 5-0 last season is a reminder not to become complacent. “For us, I think it helps us focus this year," Vikings defensive end Brian Robison said. "I also think it helps us realize it doesn’t matter how many games you win, it can go south real quick if you don’t stay focused.” Atlanta has charged back into the postseason chase behind its revitalized offense, which struggled most of the season after leading the league in scoring a year ago. The Falcons failed to score more than 17 points in each loss during a recent 1-4 stretch, but they have amassed a combined 95 points during the three-game winning streak to move within a game of NFC South co-leaders New Orleans and Carolina.

TV: 1 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Falcons -3. O/U: 47

ABOUT THE VIKINGS (9-2): Here's the great irony with Minnesota -- coach Mike Zimmer has refused to commit long-term to Case Keenum as his starter, even though the quarterback was named the NFC Offensive Player of the Month for November. Keenum threw for 866 yards with seven touchdowns and two interceptions while posting a passer rating of 114.0 in guiding the Vikings to three wins in as many games last month. Wide receiver Adam Thielen has 22 catches for 378 yards and two TDs over that span to push him over 1,000 yards for the season while Latavius Murray has steadied the ground game and scored four times over the last three weeks. Minnesota yields only 290.4 yards per game and ranks No. 2 versus the run (75.5).

ABOUT THE FALCONS (7-4): Star wide receiver Julio Jones reached the end zone once in the first 10 games before erupting with a monster performance in last week's 34-20 win over Tampa Bay, hauling in 12 receptions for 253 yards and a pair of scores. The ground game will receive a boost with the return of Devonta Freeman, who missed most of the past three games with a concussion, although Tevin Coleman picked up the slack by rushing for four touchdowns in that span. Reigning league MVP Matt Ryan has completed at least 70 percent of his passes and posted a QB rating of least 104.8 during the current winning streak. While Atlanta's defense is ninth in the league in sacks (30), it ranks 31st with only three interceptions.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Thielen joined Randy Moss as the only Minnesota wideout with at least 70 catches and 1,000 yards through the first 11 games.

2. Ryan has thrown a scoring pass in 29 straight games, the longest active streak in the league.

3. Vikings DE Everson Griffen had two sacks last week to tie for the league lead with 12.

Preview: Lions at RavensGracenote
Dec 1, 2017

The Baltimore Ravens remain in the playoff hunt in the AFC despite a passing offense that rates as the worst in the NFL. The Detroit Lions, who visit the Ravens on Sunday, are on the outside of the NFC postseason picture despite a passing offense that ranks in the top 10 and a scoring offense putting up an average of 26.7 points - fifth in the NFL.

That Lions offense is led by quarterback Matthew Stafford, who came out of a 30-23 loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Thanksgiving with an ankle injury but practiced fully on Wednesday and is expected to play against the Ravens. Stafford threw seven touchdown passes and two interceptions in the last four games - winning the first three - and is well on his way to a seventh straight season of at least 4,000 yards passing. Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco is not quite on the same pace and is last among NFL quarterbacks in yards per attempt at 5.34. "It may not look pretty moving forward," Flacco told reporters, "but we are going to do what we have to do to win football games and put ourselves in a good position at the end of the games to win them."
TV: 1 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Ravens -2.5. O/U: 43

ABOUT THE LIONS (6-5): Detroit could get a boost on defense this week from veteran defensive end Dwight Freeney, who is expected to make his team debut after being claimed off waivers from the Seattle Seahawks last week. Freeney, 37, recorded three sacks in four games with the Seahawks before a surprising release and Detroit is excited to have him in the defensive line rotation. “He’s still got juice,” Detroit coach Jim Caldwell told reporters. “You take a look. He’s been productive anytime that he’s been on the field, and we’ll expect him to be productive for us as well. How we’ll use him? We’ll make a real good determination of that as we go through the week. But he’ll be able to do something for us.”

ABOUT THE RAVENS (6-5): Flacco is getting some help from the running game led by Alex Collins, who returned to practice on Thursday after missing a day with a calf injury. Collins failed to rush for more than 60 yards in any of the last three games but has not lost a fumble since Oct. 1, and ball security is a key for Baltimore's struggling offense. "You do what you have to do to win football games, especially in the second half when we get up on teams and our defense is turning the ball over," Flacco told reporters. "You get to a point in the game, where it is like, 'All right, we have this game won, unless we do something crazy.'"

EXTRA POINTS

1. Lions C Travis Swanson (knee) and G T.J. Lang (foot) did not practice on Thursday.

2. Baltimore LT Ronnie Stanley (knee) participated in practice on Thursday and could return on Sunday.

3. Detroit OC Jim Bob Cooter, who was a backup quarterback at Tennessee, had no interest in discussing the Volunteers' open head coaching job when asked by reporters.

Preview: Patriots at BillsGracenote
Nov 30, 2017

The Buffalo Bills gave their flagging playoff hopes a huge boost with a major upset on the road against a division leader and will try to do the same against one of their oldest rivals and a bitter nemesis. Buffalo will be looking to derail one of the league's hottest clubs when it hosts the AFC East-leading New England Patriots on Sunday.

The Patriots have ripped off seven consecutive victories to tie Pittsburgh for the best record in the AFC and have dominated the series with the Bills, winning 26 of the past 30 meetings. "I think this is a dynamite football team," Buffalo coach Sean McDermott said of New England, which holds a three-game lead over the Bills in the division. "They do a good job of identifying strengths and trying to make other teams beat them in other ways. I think that’s a big part of what they do and how they prepare." Playing away from home has not fazed the Patriots, who have won 13 straight games on the road and 12 of their last 13 visits to Buffalo. The Bills moved back over .500 with an impressive 16-10 win at Kansas City last weekend after surrendering a staggering 135 points during a ghastly three-game slide.

TV: 1 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Patriots -9. O/U: 48

ABOUT THE PATRIOTS (9-2): Quarterback Tom Brady, who leads the league in passer rating (111.7) and yards (3,374) is 26-3 against Buffalo and can set the all-time record for wins against one opponent with a victory Sunday. Tight end Rob Gronkowski, who has torched the Bills during his career with 11 touchdowns in 11 games, caught a pair of scoring passes in last week's 35-17 win over Miami, while speedster Brandin Cooks has six receptions in each of the last three games while scoring in two straight. Dion Lewis has double-digit carries in six straight games and Rex Burkhead scored twice last week while posting season highs of 13 rushes for 50 yards. New England's defense has not allowed more than 17 points during the winning streak.

ABOUT THE BILLS (6-5): McDermott wisely went back to Tyrod Taylor at quarterback in Kansas City after the ill-fated decision to bench him for rookie Nathan Peterman, who threw five first-half interceptions in a 54-24 mauling at the Los Angeles Chargers. Buffalo needs a big game from running back LeSean McCoy, who has piled up at least 100 yards from scrimmage in three straight versus New England but was limited to 49 yards rushing or fewer in three of the past four games overall. The Bills' passing game ranks 30th in the league at 182.5 yards per game, but tight end Charles Clay had four catches for 60 yards last week -- his best game since injuring his knee on Oct. 1. Buffalo must find a way to generate pressure on Brady, ranking 31st in sacks (17).

EXTRA POINTS

1. Brady was named AFC Offensive Player of the Month in November after throwing for 833 yards with 10 touchdowns and one interception in three games.

2. Bills rookie WR Zay Jones had a scoring pass in two of the past three games.

3. Gronkowski, who grew up in western New York, has 35 catches for 583 yards and seven TDs in six games at Buffalo.

Preview: 49ers at BearsGracenote
Nov 30, 2017

The long-awaited start of the Jimmy Garappolo era at San Francisco will commence on Sunday when the 49ers visit the Chicago Bears. Garappolo, who was acquired by the 49ers in a midseason trade with New England, needed just two attempts to throw his first touchdown pass of the season last week playing in relief of injured starter C.J. Beathard.

After snapping its nine-game skid to start the season the 49ers returned to their losing ways by dropping a 24-13 decision to Seattle last week. Garappolo played the game's final minute and directed a touchdown drive on the game's final play. Chicago has lost four straight after winning two in a row midway through the season. Rookie quarterback Mitchell Trubisky threw for just 147 yards with two interceptions in the Bears' 31-3 loss at Philadelphia last week.
TV: 1 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Bears -3. O/U: 40.5.

ABOUT THE 49ERS (1-10): Beathard (hip, knee) missed practices during the week and coach Kyle Shanahan said he was unsure if he would be able to serve as Garoppolo's backup on Sunday. This will be Garoppolo's third career start after making two with New England last season, when he went 42 of 59 for 496 yards and four touchdowns for a passer rating of 119.0. “If (a contract extension) happens over a five-game span, a three-game span, then great, let’s do it,” Shanahan said of Garoppolo, who does not have a deal for next season. “If it doesn’t, no big deal. We can franchise you."
ABOUT THE BEARS (3-8): This is the third straight season the two teams will meet in Chicago on the first weekend in December, with the Bears winning 26-6 on a cold, snowy day last year. Bringing Trubisky along slowly, Chicago ranks 31st in the NFL in passing, averaging 167.1 yards a game. Jordan Howard leads the rushing attack with 847 yards on the ground and five touchdowns, but he was stymied by the Eagles, gaining just seven yards on six carries.

EXTRA POINTS
1. RB Carlos Hyde leads the 49ers with 639 yards rushing, but has only gone over 100 yards in a game once this season.
2. Bears LB Danny Trevathan (calf) returned to practice on a limited basis for the first time since he got hurt in Saints game on Oct. 29 and is questionable.
3. Chicago is 2-4 at home this season, but all four defeats have come by a touchdown or less.

Preview: Buccaneers at PackersGracenote
Dec 1, 2017

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are set to get Jameis Winston back at quarterback after a three-game absence due to a shoulder injury. The Green Bay Packers, who host Winston and the Buccaneers on Sunday, are still waiting on the return of star quarterback Aaron Rodgers but are seeing some encouraging signs from backup Brett Hundley.

Winston rejoins a Tampa Bay squad that won its first two games with backup Ryan Fitzpatrick under center before dropping a 34-20 decision at Atlanta last week in a loss that severely diminished their already slim chances of making a run at a playoff spot in the NFC. "It's gonna be great. I've missed that guy out there the past couple of games," wide receiver DeSean Jackson told reporters of Winston's return. "He's healthy finally now, so it's a great addition to have back. All we can do is take one game at a time and finish as strong as we can, so it's a great thing to have." Rodgers is still on injured reserve while rehabbing a broken collarbone but is eligible to return to practice on Saturday and can return to games on Dec. 17 at Carolina. "I'm more focused on game planning for the Buccaneers," Green Bay coach Mike McCarthy told reporters when asked if Rodgers would practice on Saturday. "There's a plan laid out for Aaron, just like the other guys on IR. He's knocking it out of the park, he's going at it 120 miles an hour. We'll see what the end of the week brings."
TV: 1 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Buccaneers -1.5. O/U: 44.5

ABOUT THE BUCCANEERS (4-7): Winston is not only returning to a team on the outside of the playoff hunt but one that will also have trouble protecting him after placing two offensive linemen on injured reserve. Starting center Ali Marpet (knee) and starting right tackle Demar Dotson (knee) are done for the season while left guard Evan Smith (concussion) is questionable after sitting out last week. "It's disappointing that you take two guys that are playing well on a team that needs more consistent play and they are out, but that is the worst part of this game and something that is uncontrollable [are] injuries," Tampa Bay coach Dirk Koetter told reporters.

ABOUT THE PACKERS (5-6): A rough start to Hundley's tenure as the starting quarterback left fans clamoring for Rodgers' return, but the UCLA product is beginning to settle in as the starter and is coming off his best performance - 245 yards passing with three TDs and no interceptions in a 31-28 loss at Pittsburgh last week. Hundley, who threw three picks without a score in the previous game, is just 1-5 including the loss at Minnesota in which he took over for Rodgers on Oct. 15. He could be getting more help on offense soon from running back Aaron Jones (knee), who returned to practice on Wednesday and is questionable after missing the last two games.

EXTRA POINTS

1. The Bucs promoted TE Alan Cross, WR Jesus "Bobo" Wilson and DE Patrick O'Connor from the practice squad.

2. Green Bay LB Clay Matthews (groin) returned to practice after sitting out last week and is questionable.

3. Tampa Bay CBs Vernon Hargreaves (hamstring) and Robert McClain and S T.J. Ward (concussion) all sat out practice on Wednesday.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are attempting to end a nine-season playoff drought, and their upcoming stretch of home games surely can help with that quest. Jacksonville is tied with Tennessee for first place in the AFC South as it opens a three-game homestand on Sunday against the struggling Indianapolis Colts.

The Jaguars also host Seattle and Houston during the stretch, and not playing away from home again until Dec. 24 rates as a huge opportunity. "At the beginning of the season, we were like, 'Dang, where are all the home games?'" defensive tackle Malik Jackson told reporters. "Now, we're like, 'Ooh, it's awesome to be here at the end of the season' - warm weather, you're with your crowd ... you're just home. It's awesome." The Colts, who have lost five of their last six games, were routed 27-0 by the Jaguars on Oct. 22 as quarterback Jacoby Brissett was sacked 10 times and hit on eight other occasions. "I'm not going to flinch in the pocket," Brissett told reporters. "That's not my mentality, that's not how I was raised, so that will never change."

TV: 1 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Jaguars -9.5. O/U: 41

ABOUT THE COLTS (3-8): Indianapolis' season unraveled early as quarterback Andrew Luck was unavailable due to a shoulder injury, and the team's next loss will clinch its first losing campaign since 2011. "It's tough, but I know what type of guys we've got in this locker room - great group of guys who will come to work every day," veteran running back Frank Gore told reporters. "I know things haven't been going our way, and I think if we just handle the small things, I think that can change." Gore needs 49 rushing yards against the Jaguars to pass Jerome Bettis (13,662) and LaDainian Tomlinson (13,684) and move into fifth place on the all-time list.

ABOUT THE JAGUARS (7-4): Getting running back Leonard Fournette (765 yards) back on track is a big priority, as the rookie has gained 33 or fewer yards in two of his last three games. "Everybody is game-planning to stop the run game, and sometimes it's hard," Fournette told reporters. "We're trying to get it moving, but I have faith in our coaching and our players and I think we're going to be able to get it done." Jacksonville leads the NFL in scoring defense (15.3 points), total defense (281.8 yards) and sacks (41), with star defensive end Calais Campbell tied for third in the league with 11.5 sacks.

EXTRA POINTS

1. The Jaguars have won three of the last four meetings, but the Colts hold a 22-11 series advantage.

2. Jacksonville OLB Telvin Smith (concussion) is doubtful after being injured last Sunday against Arizona.

3. Indianapolis C Ryan Kelly (concussion) will miss the game as Mike Person will start in his place.

Preview: Broncos at DolphinsGracenote
Nov 30, 2017

Promising starts have given way to unmitigated disaster for both the Denver Broncos and Miami Dolphins, who enter Sunday's tilt at Hard Rock Stadium with constantly revolving quarterback carousels and pronounced losing skids. Trevor Siemian will get the nod for the Broncos as they bid to end a seven-game winless streak against former first-round pick Jay Cutler and the Dolphins, who have dropped five in a row.

"I think he'll be alright," Miami coach Adam Gase said of Cutler, who sat out Sunday's 35-17 loss to New England with a concussion. "He just needs to have a good week of practice. Just clean up some stuff, get his timing down, get the ball out on time." Cutler will be facing a Denver team with which he spent his first three NFL seasons after being selected by the club with the 11th overall pick in the 2006 draft, although the 34-year-old insists he doesn't think of those days. The Broncos will once again turn to Siemian, who will be back under center with Paxton Lynch sidelined two-to-four weeks with an ankle injury. Siemian led Denver to a pair of late touchdowns in a 21-14 loss to Oakland last Sunday in a game best remembered for cornerback Aqib Talib drawing a one-game suspension following his fireworks with Raiders wideout Michael Crabtree.

TV: 1 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Broncos -1.5. O/U: 39.5

ABOUT THE BRONCOS (3-8): Denver's offense has hit the skids, and the fall-off of C.J. Anderson has been pronounced as the starting running back has rushed 37 times for just 116 yards in the last four games. Wideout Demaryius Thomas has been consistent if unspectacular, reeling in five receptions in three straight games - albeit for just 126 yards total. Super Bowl 50 MVP Von Miller, who will play in his 100th regular-season game on Sunday, leads the team with 8.5 sacks and is closing in on his seventh double-digit total for a season in his eight-year career.

ABOUT THE DOLPHINS (4-7): With fellow running back Damien Williams nursing a dislocated shoulder, Kenyan Drake could be in line for a significant workload on Sunday and perhaps down the road if he takes advantage of the opportunity. The 23-year-old Drake has shown flashes while splitting time with Williams, rushing for 175 yards and adding 12 catches for 82 yards in four games since Jay Ajayi was traded to Philadelphia. Drake's downfall has been a pair of fumbles in that stretch, including a costly one in the second half against the Patriots that drew Gase's ire and effectively ended any chance for a late comeback.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Gase was an assistant in Denver from 2009-14, while first-year Broncos coach Vance Joseph was the Dolphins' defensive coordinator last season.

2. Denver CB Bradley Roby will start in place of Talib opposite Chris Harris, and rookie Brandan Langley will also see plenty of work in the secondary.

3. Miami WR Jarvis Landry has recorded at least five catches and seven targets in every game this season, but has eclipsed 78 yards receiving on just two occasions.

Preview: Chiefs at JetsGracenote
Dec 1, 2017

The Kansas City Chiefs return to MetLife Stadium for the second time in three weeks as they look to snap an ugly three-game skid Sunday against the New York Jets. Kansas City has lost five of its last six contests following a 5-0 start, and its lead atop the AFC West – once seemingly insurmountable – is down to one game over both Oakland and the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Jets also have lost five of their last six following a three-game winning streak, but the five losses have come by a total of 28 points and none were by more than eight. One storyline to watch will be the Kansas City debut of former Jets star Darrelle Revis. The Chiefs signed the seven-time Pro Bowl cornerback to try to solidify a shaky secondary that ranks 28th against the pass. The Chiefs have won the last two meetings, including a 24-3 victory at home last season.
TV: 1 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Chiefs -3. O/U: 43.5

ABOUT THE CHIEFS (6-5): Kansas City’s once-unstoppable offense seemingly has hit a wall, as the team has averaged only 312.3 total yards over its last six contests. Rookie Kareem Hunt ranks second in the league with 890 rushing yards but hasn’t had more than 73 in any of his last six games, and Alex Smith has recorded eight touchdown passes and four interceptions over that span after throwing 11 TDs without a pick during the 5-0 start. The league’s 27th-ranked defense has played well the past two weeks and gave up a season-low 268 total yards in last Sunday’s 16-10 loss to Buffalo.
ABOUT THE JETS (4-7): New York has been better across the board than expected, even if the recent results haven’t gone its way. Josh McCown quietly is putting together an excellent season and has posted at least a 100 quarterback rating in four of his last five games, including last week's loss to Carolina in which he passed for 307 yards and three touchdowns without an interception. The Jets’ defense thrives on forcing turnovers and has at least one takeaway in 10 of its 11 games.

EXTRA POINTS
1. Jets WR Robby Anderson has caught a touchdown pass in five straight games, including scores of 54 and 33 yards last week.
2. Kansas City has committed seven turnovers in its last four contests after going six without a giveaway.
3. McCown is one of three quarterbacks in the league with at least 15 touchdown passes and three rushing touchdowns.

Nov 30, 2017

The last time the Houston Texans faced the Tennessee Titans, rookie quarterback DeShaun Watson threw four touchdown passes in a 57-14 Week 4 rout. With Watson on injured reserve, Tom Savage will be under center as the Texans try for the season sweep when they visit the Titans on Sunday.

Tennessee has won five of its last six to move into a tie for first place with Jacksonville in the AFC South Division. The Titans' recent surge has come despite the struggles of Marcus Mariota, who has thrown six interceptions in his last two games. Savage hasn't been any better. His three turnovers cost the Texans any chance at an upset at Baltimore on Monday night in a 23-16 setback.
TV: 1 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Titans -6.5. O/U: 43.

ABOUT THE TEXANS (4-7): Savage has 12 turnovers in five starts this season and took the blame for Monday night's loss. "We're going to sit down and watch the tape, and we'll see if we can get it corrected," Houston coach Bill O'Brien said. "It has to get corrected because if not, we're going to have to go in a different direction." Despite Savage's miscues, DeAndre Hopkins continues to thrive with 69 catches for 1,004 yards and nine touchdowns.
ABOUT THE TITANS (7-4): Wide receiver Rishard Matthews sat out the previous game due to a hamstring injury, and his status is uncertain for Sunday. The Titans racked up a season-high eight sacks in last week’s 20-16 victory at Indianapolis, when Kevin Byard picked up his eighth turnover of the season. The Titans are playing their only home game in a stretch of five weeks, where they have won eight of their last nine games.

EXTRA POINTS
1. Houston has won six of the past seven games in the series.
2. Mariota leads the NFL with four game-winning drives in the fourth quarter or overtime this season.
3. Texans' wide receiver Will Fuller V is questionable with a knee injury.

Preview: Browns at ChargersGracenote
Dec 1, 2017

The Cleveland Browns are 1-26 over the past two seasons, but this Sunday's opponent doesn't need to be reminded who the win came against last year. The Los Angeles Chargers called San Diego home when they suffered that embarrassing defeat and will look for a different outcome in this season's matchup.

The Chargers have recovered from an 0-4 start to get back into the playoff mix, and quarterback Philip Rivers will make his 188th consecutive start - the longest active streak in the league after the New York Giants demoted Eli Manning (210). "I'm very thankful that I've been able to be out there every week," Rivers told reporters about the streak. "I don't take it for granted. I've been blessed to be healthy enough to be out there. There's probably a little element of toughness, I guess, thrown in there." The Browns are ecstatic to have receiver Josh Gordon returning to action for the first time since Dec. 21, 2014 due to his substance-abuse issues. "I'm just excited," Gordon, the NFL's top receiver in 2013, said during a press conference. "I'm having the most fun that I have ever had doing this, just playing ball, the love of it. That is the only thing that is giving me any type of - not really pressure - but kind of just boost, more than anything."

TV: 4:05 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Chargers -13.5. O/U: 43.5

ABOUT THE BROWNS (0-11): Gordon led the NFL with 1,646 receiving yards in 2013, when he caught 87 passes (nine for touchdowns) in 14 games while earning Pro Bowl honors, and coach Hue Jackson is ready to take advantage of his talents. "I have big plans for him. I plan for him to play, and play as much as he can handle," Jackson told reporters. "I think he is a very talented player. He needs to play, needs to get out there and play, but we have to see where he is and make sure how much can he handle, how much can he do." The defense has allowed 30 or more points on six occasions, but No. 1 overall pick Myles Garrett is showing off his ability with five sacks in six games since making his debut.

ABOUT THE CHARGERS (5-6): Rivers has passed for 2,948 yards and 20 touchdowns against seven interceptions and is coming off a superb Thanksgiving Day performance in which he was 27-of-33 for 434 yards and three TDs in a win against Dallas. Receiver Keenan Allen (67 receptions) caught 12 passes for a career-best 172 yards and is 73 away from his second career 1,000-yard season. Cornerback Casey Hayward (four interceptions) was named AFC Defensive Player of the Month for a three-interception November, but his status for the game is in doubt as he left the team due to his younger brother being killed in an auto accident.

EXTRA POINTS

1. The Chargers hold a 15-9-1 series advantage despite last season's 20-17 setback.

2. Los Angeles DE Joey Bosa has registered eight of his 10.5 sacks over the last seven games.

3. Cleveland MLB Joe Schobert has made 10 or more tackles in five of his last six contests and leads the team with 99 stops.

While the New Orleans Saints were rattling off eight straight wins, the Carolina Panthers quietly were keeping pace in the NFC South. The rivals meet in New Orleans on Sunday with the division lead hanging in the balance in a matchup between the Saints’ powerful offense and Carolina’s staunch defense.

Carolina pulled even in the division race with last week’s 35-27 road win over the New York Jets coupled with the Saints’ 26-20 road defeat against the Los Angeles Rams. The Saints routed the Panthers 34-13 in Charlotte in Week 3 to begin their two-month winning streak. New Orleans dominated for most of that stretch before narrowly escaping with a 34-31 overtime win over Washington and losing to the Rams in consecutive weeks. Carolina was reeling following a 17-3 loss at Chicago in Week 7 but has won four straight since.
TV: 4:25 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Saints -4.5. O/U: 48

ABOUT THE PANTHERS (8-3): Carolina’s defense has been dominant all around, but the secondary has shown some cracks of late, allowing 302 passing yards to Atlanta in Week 9 and 282 to the Jets. Getting the ground game going again has helped get the offense back on track after a midseason lull, as Cam Newton and Jonathan Stewart lead the league’s No. 5 rushing offense. Rookie Christian McCaffrey plays a key role in the offense, and Devin Funchess has become Newton’s go-to receiver with Kelvin Benjamin traded to Buffalo and tight end Greg Olsen plagued by injuries.
ABOUT THE SAINTS (8-3): New Orleans’ offense is as prolific as ever and ranks second in the league. Quarterback Drew Brees still is putting up big numbers through the air – he ranks third in the NFL with 3,029 passing yards – but running backs Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara are providing balance to the once pass-happy attack. The defense had held five opponents under 300 total yards during its eight-game winning streak, but the team has surrendered 871 total yards over the last two weeks.

EXTRA POINTS
1. Kamara leads the league in scrimmage yards (777) since Week 7, and his seven touchdowns are tied for the most in the NFL during that span.
2. Brees has averaged 313 passing yards with 12 touchdowns and three interceptions in his last four meetings with the Panthers.
3. McCaffrey has 59 receptions, the most among rookies and second-most among running backs.

Preview: Giants at RaidersGracenote
Dec 1, 2017

With their season a lost cause, the New York Giants made the extremely controversial decision to make a quarterback switch for their game against the host Oakland Raiders on Sunday. Veteran Eli Manning, who has started 210 consecutive contests, will see his streak - the second-longest for a quarterback in NFL history - come to an end as he rides the bench in favor of Geno Smith.

"It's hard," the 36-year-old Manning, a two-time Super Bowl champion and MVP, told reporters. "I'll be a good teammate. I don't like it, but it's part of football. You handle it." New York fell to 1-5 on the road with last week's 20-10 loss in Washington but hopes to register its fourth straight win over Oakland, which is in the thick of the race for first place in the AFC West. Despite their sub-.500 record, the Raiders are just one game behind Kansas City for the top spot in the division after topping Denver 21-14 last Sunday. Oakland's defense played a huge role in the victory, registering five sacks while limiting the Broncos to just 219 total yards.

TV: 4:25 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Raiders -9. O/U: 41.5

ABOUT THE GIANTS (2-9): Smith has not started a game since Oct. 23, 2016, when he suited up for the New York Jets against Baltimore. The 27-year-old, who was a second-round pick out of West Virginia in 2013, completed 501-of-866 passes for 5,962 yards with 28 touchdowns and 36 interceptions while going 12-18 as a starter over four seasons with the Jets. Cornerback Janoris Jenkins (ankle) became the 19th member of the team overall - and fifth this week - currently on injured reserve and was replaced on the roster by defensive tackle Khyri Thornton, who played in four games for Detroit this season before being released on Nov. 21.

ABOUT THE RAIDERS (5-6): Derek Carr likely will be without his top two receivers this week as Michael Crabtree serves his league-imposed one-game suspension while Amari Cooper nurses a concussion and an ankle injury, which have kept him out of practice this week. Crabtree was given a two-game ban for violating the NFL's unsportsmanlike conduct and unnecessary roughness rules in the win over the Broncos but had it cut in half. Marquette King is tied for the league lead with 13 punts inside the 10-yard line after delivering four against Denver.

EXTRA POINTS

1. New York also signed LBs Ray-Ray Armstrong and Jeremy Cash, as well as DBs Darryl Morris and Brandon Dixon, this week.

2. With its receiving corps depleted, Oakland signed WR Isaac Whitney from the practice squad.

3. The Giants have not visited Oakland since Dec. 31, 2005, when they posted a 30-21 victory.

Preview: Rams at CardinalsGracenote
Dec 1, 2017

While the Los Angeles Rams will have their top running back ready to go on Sunday, the Arizona Cardinals may be without theirs when they host their NFC West rivals. Todd Gurley has been a major reason why Los Angeles sits one game ahead of Seattle for first place in the division as he leads the NFL with 11 touchdowns and ranks second with 1,344 scrimmage yards.

The 23-year-old Gurley registered 128 total yards in last Sunday's 26-20 triumph over New Orleans, which got the Rams back on track after their four-game winning streak was halted by Minnesota the previous week. The Cardinals, who snapped a two-game slide and remained in playoff contention with last week's 27-24 upset victory over AFC South-leading Jacksonville, could be missing Adrian Peterson due to the neck injury he suffered in the win. The 32-year-old Peterson rushed 20 times for 79 yards against the Jaguars and has averaged 21.5 carries since being acquired from the Saints on Oct. 10. Arizona, which is one game behind Detroit for the second NFC wild card, also may be without Kerwynn Williams as the backup running back suffered cracked ribs versus Jacksonville.

TV: 4:25 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Rams -7. O/U: 44.5

ABOUT THE RAMS (8-3): Gurley became the fourth player in franchise history to register 1,300 scrimmage yards and 10 touchdowns in the first 11 games of a season, joining Elroy Hirsch (1951), Eric Dickerson (1983) and Marshall Faulk (2000). He needs 135 yards rushing and 21 receiving against Arizona to become the fifth player in NFL history with 1,000 rushing, 500 receiving and 10 TDs through 12 contests. Jared Goff, who ranks sixth in the league with 2,964 passing yards, has averaged 311 while throwing nine touchdown passes and just one interception over his last four games.

ABOUT THE CARDINALS (5-6): Phil Dawson (42 years old) was the hero against Jacksonville as he booted a 57-yard field goal with one second left - the longest game-winning kick in the fourth quarter by a player 40 or older in NFL history. Larry Fitzgerald, who leads the NFC with 72 receptions, can join Jerry Rice (13), Tim Brown (10) and Tony Gonzalez (10) as the only players in league history with at least 75 catches in 10 or more seasons. Linebacker Chandler Jones is tied for first in the NFL with 12 sacks after recording two last week and is the only player in the league with at least 10 in each of the last three campaigns.

EXTRA POINTS

1. The Rams are second in the league with an average of 29.9 points scored.

2. Peterson is four rushing yards away from passing Faulk (12,279) for 11th place on the all-time list and 37 away from overtaking Jim Brown (12,312) for 10th.

3. Los Angeles posted a 33-0 triumph over Arizona in England during Week 7.

Preview: Eagles at SeahawksGracenote
Dec 1, 2017

The Philadelphia Eagles haven't just been victorious during their nine-game winning streak, they've been downright dominant with 28-point routs in a franchise-record three consecutive contests. The Eagles can clinch the NFC East title as well as host a playoff game should they continue their destructive ways in the Pacific Northwest on Sunday night against the Seattle Seahawks.

"For us, there's nothing to measure. We are our measuring stick," safety Malcolm Jenkins said on the heels of Philadelphia's stifling defense limiting Chicago to just 140 yards in Sunday's 31-3 romp at Lincoln Financial Field. Second-year quarterback Carson Wentz, who leads the NFL's top-ranked scoring unit (31.9 points per game), tossed three touchdown passes versus the Bears and has 22 of his NFL-best 28 in the last seven games to put his name firmly in the mix for NFL MVP honors. Included in that discussion is Seattle counterpart Russell Wilson, who is third in the league in passing touchdowns (23), tied for fourth in passing yards per game (275) and responsible for nearly 86 percent of his team's scrimmage yards. Wilson threw for two touchdowns and ran for another in his second straight game on Sunday to lead the Seahawks to their sixth win in eight outings, a 24-13 victory at San Francisco.

TV: 8:30 p.m. ET, NBC. LINE: Eagles -6. O/U: 47.5

ABOUT THE EAGLES (10-1): Wentz's two favorite targets are Alshon Jeffery and tight end Zach Ertz, who each have seven touchdown receptions in addition to six catches of at least 20 yards this season. Jeffery has found the end zone in four consecutive games and Ertz had a team-best 10 receptions for 103 yards last week while reeling in a touchdown pass for the sixth time in six contests. Running backs LeGarrette Blount, trade acquisition Jay Ajayi and rookie Corey Clement pace the league's second-ranked rushing offense (147.5 yards per game). Defensive end Brandon Graham has three sacks in his last four games, with his team-leading and career-best seventh on Sunday triggering a $250,000 escalator for his 2018 salary.

ABOUT THE SEAHAWKS (7-4): Tight end Jimmy Graham leads the NFL with eight red-zone touchdown receptions, with each of them coming in his last seven games. Graham has gained the trust of Wilson, who has seen traditional favorite target Doug Baldwin limited to just two catches in each of his last two outings. Linebacker Bobby Wagner has been nursing an ailing hamstring during the last few weeks, but the injury has done little to slow him down during games. Wagner had an interception last week and recorded eight of his NFL third-best 100 tackles, marking the sixth consecutive season that he has reached triple digits in that department.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Wentz has 20 touchdowns and zero interceptions in the red zone this season.

2. Wilson has a team-leading 401 yards rushing for Seattle, which receives little else from its backfield and faces Philadelphia's top-ranked run defense (65.1 yards per game).

3. Seahawks DE Cliff Avril underwent surgery on his neck and spine this week and was placed on injured reserve.

"We know that the public will look to back New Orleans, so we wanted to be a step higher on that side. Don’t be surprised to see this finish at -3."

Week 13 on the NFL docket includes a divisional battle for first place among two teams that finished below .500 last season. Patrick Everson checks in on the opening lines for a quartet of contests, with insights from Scott Cooley, odds consultant for offshore sportsbook Bookmaker.eu.

Carolina Panthers at New Orleans Saints (-4)

New Orleans went 7-9 SU last year and lost its first two games this season, then made an impressive about-face with eight consecutive victories (7-1 ATS). However, the win streak came to an end Sunday for the Saints (8-3 SU, 7-4 ATS), who lost to the Los Angeles Rams 26-20 as a 2.5-point road underdog.

Carolina, which reached the Super Bowl two seasons ago before a dismal 6-10 SU campaign last year, has won and cashed each of its last four. The Panthers (8-3 SU, 7-4 ATS) were 5.5-point chalk at the New York Jets on Sunday and covered when a late field goal finished off a 35-27 victory.

“It’s tough to trust either of these teams, in my opinion, but they are both quality clubs,” Cooley said. “Obviously a ton on the line, given the division climate, and we know that the public will look to back New Orleans, so we wanted to be a step higher on that side. Don’t be surprised to see this finish at -3.”

Philadelphia Eagles at Seattle Seahawks (+3)

Without question, Philadelphia is the class of the NFC and perhaps even the whole league. The Eagles (10-1 SU, 9-2 ATS) have won nine in a row on the field and eight straight against the oddsmakers, including Sunday’s 31-3 rout of Chicago as a 14-point favorite.

Seattle (7-4 SU, 4-6-1 ATS) is always a playoff threat, but with its depleted defense – no Richard Sherman or Kam Chancellor, among others – and a surprising Rams squad in the NFC West, things won’t get any easier. The Seahawks weathered the injuries Sunday to notch a 24-13 victory at San Francisco laying 7 points.

“This is the first time Seattle has opened as a ‘dog in a long time, but it’s certainly warranted here,” Cooley said. “Philadelphia is playing like the second-best team in the league, and the Eagles are not far behind the Patriots in our power ratings. Early action indicates this will get past the key number sooner than later.”

And indeed it did, as Philly moved to -4 for this Sunday night prime-time showdown.

Washington Redskins at Dallas Cowboys (-1)

The loser of this Thursday night meeting can probably start thinking hard about next season. Dallas has lost its last three games, all without suspended star running back Ezekiel Elliott, who still must sit out three more games. The Cowboys (5-6 SU and ATS) got dumped by the Los Angeles Chargers 28-6 as a 1-point home pup on Thanksgiving Day.

Washington, also 5-6 SU and ATS, played the Turkey Day Thursday nighter and came away with a 20-10 win over the New York Giants giving 7 points at home.

“Despite an early move to -1.5, I’m sure we’ll see some sharp money on Washington at some point,” Cooley said. “The Cowboys have had their backs against the wall for two weeks, and they’ve come out flat each time. I’d be hard-pressed to bet on this Dallas squad right now.”

Minnesota Vikings at Atlanta Falcons (-3)

Minnesota has been far more stout than expected this season, with third-string quarterback Case Keenum proving quite capable, complemented by a solid defense. The Vikings (9-2 SU, 8-3 ATS) are on a seven-game winning streak, besting Detroit 30-23 on Thanksgiving as a 2.5-point road chalk to cover for the sixth straight week.

Defending NFC champion Atlanta continues to look up at Carolina and New Orleans just within the South Division. The Falcons (7-4 SU, 5-6 ATS) have won and cashed three straight, though, topping Tampa Bay 34-20 as a 10.5-point road favorite Sunday.

“My gut feeling is that this will come down a decent bit. Some of the team wanted to see -1 or -2 here, instead of the field goal, but that’s what we settled on,” Cooley said. “The Falcons are certainly no cakewalk for opponents, but it will be interesting to see how they handle that vaunted Vikings defense.”

NFL's biggest betting mismatches: Week 13
Monty Andrews

The Jaguars come into the Week 13 with a league-best 41 sacks, resulting in 269 lost yards overall.

San Francisco 49ers at Chicago Bears (-3.5, 39.5)

49ers' wretched red-zone record vs. Bears' bend-but-don't-break D

It's a battle of teams who will likely have high picks in the 2018 draft when the Chicago Bears host the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday afternoon. The Bears have dropped four in a row to sink to the bottom of the NFC North division - a disappointing development considering Chicago was near the .500 mark prior to the skid. Getting back there is highly improbable, but Sunday's encounter with the 1-10 49ers offers hope thanks to a sizeable edge in opponent red zone play.

Bettors can dig up a variety of factors for San Francisco having just one victory on the season - and near the top of the list is the 49ers' season-long inability to convert trips inside the opponents' 20-yard line into touchdowns. San Francisco comes into Week 13 ranked 25th out of 32 teams in red-zone touchdown rate, reaching the end zone just 48.2 percent of those time. All those wasted trips downfield offer a reasonable explanation for why the 49ers average just 17 points per game in 2017.

Life doesn't get any easier for the San Francisco offense in this one, as the host Bears have actually been a solid defensive unit when it comes to red-zone scoring prevention. Teams have turned red-zone opportunities into six points just 48.7 percent of the time against Chicago, the 11th-best rate in the league. Neither team is expected to put many points on the board - check out that total - but give the Bears a big green checkmark in the red-zone D department - and that mismatch could very well decide this one.

Indianapolis Colts at Jacksonville Jaguars (-9.5, 40.5)

Colts' terrible QB protection vs. the phenomenon known as "Sasksonville"

The Jacksonville Jaguars can't get to Week 13 quickly enough. After seeing their four-game winning streak snapped in a 27-24 loss to the Arizona Cardinals, the Jaguars will look to regain sole possession of top spot in the AFC South as they host the division-rival Indianapolis Colts on Sunday afternoon. Jacksonville is already a near-double-digit favorite in this one, and could make it a blowout if they can exert their pass-rush dominance against a Colts team that has struggled to protect the quarterback.

Losing Andrew Luck for the season was certainly a blow to the Indianapolis offense, but it isn't like the Colts' offensive line would have done a good job of shielding him, anyhow. Indianapolis quarterbacks have been taken down a league-high 47 times so far this season; only two teams allowed more sacks than that in the entire 2016 season. Jacoby Brissett absorbed five sacks the last time these teams met, when Jacksonville cruised to a 27-0 victory back on Oct. 22.

But don't take all those takedowns personally, Jacoby - that's just how the Jaguars roll. They come into the week with a league-best 41 sacks, resulting in 269 lost yards overall. The Jacksonville defense has been incredibly proficient in a number of areas - sitting tied for third in forced fumbles (17), sharing the lead in recovered fumbles (11) and scoring a league-high four touchdowns on those recoveries - but it's all those sacks that should have Colts fans and bettors alike concerned this Sunday.

Cleveland Browns at Los Angeles Chargers (-13.5, 42.5)

Browns' robust run game vs. Chargers' ground struggles

Will Cleveland win a game this season? You might fancy a wager if you believe the Browns will pull out a win somewhere along the way - but don't expect that victory to come in Week 13, with the visitors a nearly-two-touchdown underdog against a Chargers team that has rolled to back-to-back victories and sits just one game back of division-leading Kansas City in the AFC West. But stay tuned, bettors: Cleveland might have a way to keep this one closer than expected.

Cleveland's offensive struggles are well noted - the team averages a league-worst 15.1 points per game on the back of a passing attack in which the Browns complete just over 54 percent of their attempts. But the running game has actually been an area of strength so far in 2017, averaging an impressive 4.4 yards per carry - the seventh-highest mark in the league. Isaiah Crowell has been able to move the chains for most of the season, provided that he doesn't get knocked out of the game script.

The Chargers will look to force Cleveland into repeated third-down situations, with the Browns converting a league-worst 30 percent of those opportunities to date. But Los Angeles might have trouble keeping the Browns from excelling on the ground - the home side is allowing 4.9 yards per carry this season, tied with New England for the worst rate against in the NFL. If Crowell can break off a handful of meaningful runs, the Browns could control the clock sufficiently to cover this massive spread.

Los Angeles Rams at Arizona Cardinals (+7, 45.5)

Rams' elite kicking game vs. Cardinals' field goal follies

The Los Angeles Rams essentially control their playoff fate as they head into Arizona for a Sunday afternoon appointment with the NFC West-rival Cardinals. The Rams own a one-game lead over the Seattle Seahawks atop the division, and can help bolster their postseason chances with a win this weekend. Much of the focus will be on the Los Angeles offense taking on Arizona's impressive defense - but let's not overlook the kicking game, where the visitors own a significant advantage.

Good teams get meaningful contributions from just about everyone on the roster - and the Rams certainly fit that bill, with terrific quarterback play from Jared Goff, an elite running game led by Todd Gurley and a stout defense anchored by Aaron Donald. But we can't forget placekicker Greg Zuerlein, who is having a career year with 32 field goals on 34 attempts through 11 games - including a 16-of-17 success rate on kicks of 40 yards or longer. The Rams' 94.1-percent field goal conversion rate ranks fourth overall.

The Cardinals have given plenty of points away via the turnover; they cough up the ball an average of 1.6 times per game, ranking 26th out of 32 teams entering the week. But they've also been negligent when it comes to spoiling field-goal opportunities. Kicker Phil Dawson has whiffed on six of his 23 field-goal attempts, including four from 30-39 yards. Not only do the Cardinals rank 25th in conversion rate league-wide, they've also seen opposing kickers make every field-goal attempt through 11 weeks.

NFL double-digit favorites a good bet in the final five weeks of the season
Ashton Grewal

NFL favorites are 45-20-4 against the spread in the last 30 days – a clip so high that even Charles Barkley and Michael Jordan couldn’t have lost money betting pro football in the last month.

Sportsbook managers aren’t having the best November, as senior writer Patrick Everson detailed, but the chalk won’t walk at a 69 percent clip over the last five weeks of the NFL season. Bettors will have to dig a little deeper to find ways to beat their bookies.

Looking at double-digit spreads is a good place to start. Double-digit favorites went 3-1 ATS last weekend with the New England Patriots putting down the Miami Dolphins by 18 points, the Philadelphia Eagles burying the Chicago Bears by four touchdowns, the Atlanta Falcons tearing up the Tampa Bay Buccaneers by 14 points and the Pittsburgh Steelers inching past the Green Bay Packers.

This could be a preview of what’s to come until the start of the postseason. We looked back over the last six years and found teams favored by 10 or more points are 38-29-1 ATS from Week 13 to Week 17. Even better, home teams are 41-26-1 ATS in games with double-digit spreads over the same time period.

Just last season, all six home teams in games with 10-point or larger spreads went 6-0 ATS while favorites went 5-1. There’s only one double-digit spread on the board this weekend (Chargers -13.5 vs. Browns) but there should be quite a few in the weeks to follow as teams punt on the season and start taking a look at their backup players to see which are worth holding onto for next season.

Here are some games to keep an eye on for potential double-digit spreads in Weeks 14 - 17:

Week 14

New England Patriots at Miami Dolphins

The Pats just covered as 17-point home favorites against the Phins last weekend. Barring an injury to Tom Brady or a brain tumor for Bill Belichick, New England will be large favorites at Miami.

Week 15

Chicago Bears at Detroit Lions

The Lions won’t be confused for world beaters, but the Bears’ offense is so putrid it’s hard not seeing them getting at least 10 points in this divisional game.

Philadelphia Eagles at New York Giants

The Giants are already planning for the future that probably doesn’t include Eli Manning as their starting quarterback. This could be another huge line if Geno Smith is still at QB for the G-Men and the Eagles are still playing for the top overall seed in the NFC.

New York Jets at New Orleans Saints

Gang Green has been a double-digit underdog just once this season and that was all the way back in Week 2 against the Raiders. That seems like a long, long time ago. Despite the Saints’ setback against the Rams, bettors still love backing Drew Brees and the boys from the Bayou.

Week 16

Oakland Raiders at Philadelphia Eagles

The Raiders are a mess. Head coach Jack Del Rio is presently prepping index cards with the names of his assistant coaches and assorting them by the likelihood who will be his next scapegoat to save his job.

Week 17

New York Jets at New England Patriots

It’s safe to assume Brady will be playing in Week 17 because he did last season when the Pats had the first seed already sewn up.

Cleveland Browns at Pittsburgh Steelers

Will the Browns still be winless on the last weekend of the season? Would the Steelers put the squeeze on their division rival in a meaningless game for them or would they protect Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell from injury?

Chicago Bears at Minnesota Vikings

The Vikes have won a lot of games this season but have been double-digit faves just once – and that was against… you guessed it… the Browns. Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer hates losing preseason games, so it’s safe to assume he wouldn’t take his foot off the gas pedal even if there was nothing to play for in Week 17 for his team.

Essential Week 13 betting tidbits and odds for NFL Sunday

Calais Campbell and the Jacksonville Jaguars defense leads the league in most quarterback sacks and goes against the Indianapolis Colts who happen to allow the most sacks per game in the league.

Kansas City Chiefs at New York Jets (+3, 43.5)

The Chiefs are in free fall after starting the year a perfect 5-0 straight up and against the spread, they’ve dropped to 6-5 SU and ATS. This type of collapse isn’t unprecedented. The Vikings did the same thing just last season and finished the season with an 8-8 record. The Chiefs became the 17th team to start a season 5-0 ATS. The previous 16 teams averaged 11.4 wins in their seasons.

Kansas City’s offense went from averaging 32.8 points per game over the first five weeks to 18 per game since Week 6.

LINE HISTORY: The Chiefs opened as 4-point road faves and the spread has moved down to a field goal line. The total is hanging around 43.5 and 44.

TRENDS:

*KC is 1-5 ATS in its last six games.
*The Jets are 6-1 ATS in their last seven home games.
*The over is 4-1 in the Jets’ last five games.

Denver Broncos at Miami Dolphins (+1.5, 39.5)

The Broncos have lost seven games in a row and all the losing is starting to make the players on the team sick… literally. Head coach Vance Joseph says a flu bug is running through his team and was the reason defensive end Shelby Harris and linebacker Shane Ray missed practice on Wednesday. Keep your eye on reports over the weekend to see if any other players are feeling under the weather.

LINE HISTORY: Miami opened as 1-point chalk and the line has flipped to make Denver the new short fave. The total opened at 38 and has gone as high as 40. Most shops are dealing 39.5.

TRENDS:

*The Broncos are 0-7 ATS in their last seven games.
*The Fish are 0-4-2 ATS in their last six games.
*The over is 6-0 in Miami’s last six games.

New England Patriots at Buffalo Bills (+9, 48)

Great stat from ESPN Bills beat reporter Mike Rodak. The Bills were first in the league in fewest points allowed after Week 4 (13.5 PPG) while the Patriots were second last at 32 points allowed per game. Since Week 5 the Bills are allowing 29.4 points per game – tied for second worst – and New England is allowing a league-best 13.1 points per game.

LINE HISTORY: The Pats opened as 7.5-point favorites but the spread seems to be settling at 8.5 or 9. The total opened as high as 49.5 and now rests at 48 as we enter the weekend.

TRENDS:

*The Patriots are 11-2 ATS in their last 13 trips to Buffalo.
*The over is 5-1 in the Bills' last six games.

Minnesota Vikings at Atlanta Falcons (-3, 47)

His head coach isn’t calling him the unquestioned starter at quarterback but Case Keenum is getting love everywhere else. He was awarded the NFC Offensive Player of the Month for November and was given a boisterous standing ovation at Timberwolves home game earlier this week.

LINE HISTORY: The spread opened with the Falcons listed as a field goal favorite and there hasn’t really been any wavering from the books. The total is staying pretty consistent too at 47.

TRENDS:

*The Vikings are 39-15 ATS in their last 54 games overall.
*The over is 13-3 in the Falcons’ last 16 home games.

Houston Texans at Tennessee Titans (-6.5, 43)

Turnovers have become a big problem for Tom Savage and the Texans. Houston has coughed up the ball up nine times in its last three games and Savage is responsible for 12 turnovers in his five starts this season. The giveaways could be even higher. Two weeks ago Houston fumbled the ball four times but only lost possession once.

LINE HISTORY: The books opened with the Titans giving seven points and the line has dropped a half point to make the Texans now 6.5-point road dogs. The total is holding steady at 42.5.

TRENDS:

*The over is 4-0 in Tennessee’s last four home games.
*The Texans are 7-1 ATS in their last eight games against the Titans.

San Francisco 49ers at Chicago Bears (-3, 41)

Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo will make his first start for San Fran this weekend but he might be starting more out of necessity more than anything else. The Niners ponied up a second round pick to the Patriots for Garoppolo before the trade deadline but haven’t given him any game time yet.

Former starter C.J. Beathard is working through a sore hip and isn’t healthy enough to start this weekend. Garoppolo doesn’t know Kyle Shanahan’s full playbook which means the Niners will be working with a limited amount of plays on Sunday against Chicago.

“Whatever [Garoppolo] doesn’t feel comfortable with and doesn’t get down in these three practices, then we’ll take it out,” Shanahan said at the beginning of the week.

LINE HISTORY: The books opened with the Bears favored by 4.5 points when Beathard was the expected starter. The spread dropped 1.5 points once Garoppolo was announced as the starter. The total moved up from 39.5 to 41.

TRENDS:

*The Bears are 8-2-1 ATS in their last 11 home games.
*The Niners are 1-4 ATS in their last five games.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Green Bay Packers (-2, 45)

The Bucs will have Jameis Winston back under center after a three-game absence to rest his sore shoulder. Starting running back Doug Martin will not be joining Winston in the backfield on Sunday. He suffered a concussion last weekend and hasn’t practiced this week for the Bucs.

LINE HISTORY: There’s been a 4-point swing on this spread. The Bucs opened as 2-point road chalk but the line went the other way after the Packers’ impressive showing against the Steelers.

TRENDS:

*The Bucs are 2-7-1 ATS in their last 10 games.
*The over is 18-6 ATS in the Packers’ last 24 games.

Indianapolis Colts at Jacksonville Jaguars (-9.5, 41)

The Colts have a terrible offensive line. The team has given up a league-worst 47 sacks including 10 to the Jags in Week 7. Jacksonville’s defense has the most QB takedowns this season with 41 in 11 games.

LINE HISTORY: The Jags opened as 8.5-point faves and have been bet up to as high as 10-point chalk at some shops. The total has moved up a half point from 40.5 to 41.

TRENDS:

*The Jags are 5-1 ATS in their last six games against AFC South opponents.
*The under is 4-1 in the Colts’ last five games.

Detroit Lions at Baltimore Ravens (-3, 43.5)

The Lions might have to get a little creative in how they move the chains against the Ravens. Detroit hasn’t had a dynamic ground game since Barry Sanders was juking defenders out of their cleats in the late ‘90s. The Lions own the third worst rushing attack in the league at 78.3 yards per game.

That’s bad news because the Ravens’ specialty is their pass defense. Baltimore allows the second fewest yards through the air in the league at 189.9 behind only Jacksonville.

LINE HISTORY: The line opened at a field goal spread and that’s where it’s stay all week with most shops tinkering with the juice rather than move up or down by a half point. The total opened as low as 40 and is now up to 43.

TRENDS:

*The over is 4-0 in the Lions’ last four games.
*The over is 5-2 in the Ravens’ last seven games.

Cleveland Browns at Los Angeles Chargers (-13.5, 44)

For a second time this season the Chargers are having major issues at the kicker position. The Bolts cut Younghoe Koo – their starting kicker out of training camp – a few weeks into the season and replaced him with veteran Steve Novak. But now Novak’s back is acting up and preventing him from making easy kicks as viewers witnessed on Thanksgiving when he a 35-yard attempt and an extra point try against Dallas.

LA signed Travis Coon – the Browns kicker from 2015 – to the practice squad and there’s a good chance he’ll be promoted to the active roster to take kicks on Sunday against Cleveland.

LINE HISTORY: The spread opened at 13 and there are a few locations that have moved the line up to the two-touchdown mark. The total is available offshore as high as 44 and as low as 42 in Vegas.

TRENDS:

*The Browns are 5-15-1 ATS in their last 21 road games.
*The Chargers are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games overall.
*The under is 5-1 in the Chargers’ last six games.

Carolina Panthers at New Orleans Saints (-5, 48)

Panthers coach Ron Rivera was up to a little bit of gamesmanship for this week’s game. When looking at the tape of his team’s previous encounter with the Saints, he noticed Drew Brees and the opposing offense were a little too quick with their hurry-up looks.

He sent tape to the league office requesting this week’s game officials pay extra attention to any Saints players who are still moving when the ball is hiked. Maybe it’ll lead to one or two more false starts for New Orleans.

LINE HISTORY: New Orleans opened as 4-point chalk and the bookies bumped the spread up to Saints -5. The total is staying put at 47.5 and 48.

TRENDS:

*The Panthers are 4-0 ATS in their last four games overall.
*The Panthers are 7-1 ATS in their last seven road games.
*The Panthers are 0-5 ATS in their last five games against the Saints.

New York Giants at Oakland Raiders (-9, 42)

The Oakland Raiders will be without their top two wide receivers on Sunday against the New York Giants. Michael Crabtree will serve his one-game suspension for his part in a brawl against the Broncos last weekend and Amari Cooper will not play because of a bad wheel and a concussion. Both injuries stem from a hit Cooper took in the Denver game.

LINE HISTORY: The Raiders opened as 7.5-point faves but moved up 9-point chalk after the Giants announced Geno Smith would be starting in place of Eli Manning. The total opened at 40 points and is now up to 42 at most locations.

TRENDS:

*The Giants are 0-4 ATS vs. teams with losing records.
*The Raiders are 2-6-1 ATS in their last nine games overall.

Los Angeles Rams at Arizona Cardinals (+7, 44.5)

There’s a reason Rams head coach Sean McVay earned the reputation as a quarterback whisperer. He whispers in their ears. Literally.

McVay likes to get his offense to line of scrimmage early in the play clock so that he can survey the defense and communicate via headset to his starting quarterback, Jared Goff, about the pre-snap reads. He can do this until there is 15 seconds left on the play clock by rule and then Goff is on his own.

Former NFL quarterback Chris Simms went on Pro Football Talk radio and said he thought this practice – while legal – was cheating. Maybe he’s just pissed he didn’t have a QB whisper as good as McVay for his five minutes in the league.

LINE HISTORY: This spread opened with the Rams favored by seven points and that’s where most shops still have the line. There are some locations dropped down to Cards +6.5 while others stay at 7 and play with the juice.

TRENDS:

*The Rams are 5-1 ATS in their last six games.
*The Cards are 6-14-1 ATS in their last 21 games.

Philadelphia Eagles at Seattle Seahawks (+5, 47)

This is the biggest home underdog the Seahawks have been since Week 10 in the 2011 season when the Ravens were 7-point road favorites. Seattle won that game, won again later in that same year when the Eagles were 3-point away faves and won outright the next season when the Pats came to town and were giving 3.5 points.

Seattle went 42 games at home before the next time oddsmakers would make the club a home underdog – which happened last week when the Falcons won and covered as 1-point away chalk.

The Seahawks are 1-4 ATS at home this season.

LINE HISTORY: Oddsmakers opened with the Seahawks getting 3.5 points and the spread is now as high as Eagles -5.5. The total doesn’t seem to be budging off 47.5 and 47.

TRENDS:

*The Eagles are 8-0 ATS in their last eight games.
*The over is 14-3 in the Eagles’ last 17 road games.

Sunday Night Football Betting Preview and Odds: Eagles at Seahawks

Russell Wilson has a team-leading 401 yards rushing for Seattle, which receives little else from its backfield and faces Philadelphia's top-ranked run defense (65.1 yards per game).

Philadelphia Eagles vs Seattle Seahawks (+5, 47)

The Philadelphia Eagles haven't just been victorious during their nine-game winning streak, they've been downright dominant with 28-point routs in a franchise-record three consecutive contests. The Eagles can clinch the NFC East title as well as host a playoff game should they continue their destructive ways in the Pacific Northwest on Sunday night against the Seattle Seahawks.

"For us, there's nothing to measure. We are our measuring stick," safety Malcolm Jenkins said on the heels of Philadelphia's stifling defense limiting Chicago to just 140 yards in Sunday's 31-3 romp at Lincoln Financial Field. Second-year quarterback Carson Wentz, who leads the NFL's top-ranked scoring unit (31.9 points per game), tossed three touchdown passes versus the Bears and has 22 of his NFL-best 28 in the last seven games to put his name firmly in the mix for NFL MVP honors. Included in that discussion is Seattle counterpart Russell Wilson, who is third in the league in passing touchdowns (23), tied for fourth in passing yards per game (275) and responsible for nearly 86 percent of his team's scrimmage yards. Wilson threw for two touchdowns and ran for another in his second straight game on Sunday to lead the Seahawks to their sixth win in eight outings, a 24-13 victory at San Francisco.

TV: 8:30 p.m. ET, NBC.

POWER RANKINGS: Eagles (-6.5) - Seahawks (-2.5) + home field (-3) = Eagles -1.

LINE HISTORY: The Eagles opened the week as 3-point road faves and early money coming in on the road team pushed that number as high as +6 before fading back slightly to +5 at most books. The total hit the betting board at 48 and has been bet down to 47.

WEATHER REPORT: Partly cloudy and 43 degrees at kickoff - negligible winds and a 10% chance of precipitation

INJURY REPORT:

Eagles - CB Patrick Robinson (Probable, Knee), DT Beau Allen (Probable, Knee), TE Trey Burton (Probable, Back), WR Alshon Jeffrey (Probable, Foot), DE Derek Barnett (Questionable, Groin), C Jason Kelce (Questionable, Ankle), LB Joe Walker (Questionable, Neck), CB Sidney Jones (Questionable, Achilles), K Caleb Sturgis (Out Indefinitely, Quadricep).

Seahawks - LB Bobby Wagner (Probable, Hamstring), G Oday Aboushi (Probable, Shoulder), TE Jimmy Graham (Probable, Ankle), CB Shaquill Griffin (Probable, Concussion), RB Mike Davis (Probable, Groin), S Earl Thomas (Questionable, Heel), OT Duane Brown (Questionable, Ankle), LB Josh Forrest (Questionable, Foot), G Luke Joeckel (Questionable, Knee), DE Dion Jordan (Questionable, Neck), LB D.J. Alexander (Questionable, Shoulder), TE Luke Willson (Questionable, Concussion), S Kam Chancellor (Out For Season, Neck), CB Deshawn Shead (Questionable, Knee), DT Malik McDowell (I-R, Concussion).

ABOUT THE EAGLES (10-1 SU, 9-2 ATS, 6-5 O/U): Wentz's two favorite targets are Alshon Jeffery and tight end Zach Ertz, who each have seven touchdown receptions in addition to six catches of at least 20 yards this season. Jeffery has found the end zone in four consecutive games and Ertz had a team-best 10 receptions for 103 yards last week while reeling in a touchdown pass for the sixth time in six contests. Running backs LeGarrette Blount, trade acquisition Jay Ajayi and rookie Corey Clement pace the league's second-ranked rushing offense (147.5 yards per game). Defensive end Brandon Graham has three sacks in his last four games, with his team-leading and career-best seventh on Sunday triggering a $250,000 escalator for his 2018 salary.

ABOUT THE SEAHAWKS (7-4 SU, 4-6-1 ATS, 4-7 O/U): Tight end Jimmy Graham leads the NFL with eight red-zone touchdown receptions, with each of them coming in his last seven games. Graham has gained the trust of Wilson, who has seen traditional favorite target Doug Baldwin limited to just two catches in each of his last two outings. Linebacker Bobby Wagner has been nursing an ailing hamstring during the last few weeks, but the injury has done little to slow him down during games. Wagner had an interception last week and recorded eight of his NFL third-best 100 tackles, marking the sixth consecutive season that he has reached triple digits in that department.

TRENDS:

* Eagles are 8-0 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up win.

* Eagles are 12-2 ATS in their last 14 games overall.

* Seahawks are 0-5-1 ATS in their last 6 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.

* Over is 14-3 in Eagles last 17 road games.

CONSENSUS: The public is siding with the road chalk Eagles at a rate of 57 percent and the Over is getting 60 percent of the totals action.

Gulfstream Park - Race #7 - Post: 3:35pm - Claiming - 8.5 furlongs on the Turf. Purse: $29,000 Class Rating: 97

Rating: 3

#3 CRUZ DIEZ (ML=9/2)
#2 PASSPORT TO CHAOS (ML=7/2)

CRUZ DIEZ - Diaz is right back for another race today after getting on board this horse for the 1st attempt on Nov 15th and ought to know the ropes to this one a little better. Comparing how the horses in this field have fared under similar conditions, I see this horse has the highest speed rating for the distance-surface. Sub-par performance last time out at Gulfstream Park West was due to the off-going (he ended up fifth). Have to give a better effort right here without a sloppy track. PASSPORT TO CHAOS - Have to watch for this animal on the grass. Last race at Belmont Park, scored a big turf rating. Have to think he can do it again in this race. For my money, a bullet workout is the best indicator of fitness there is. Look at that last one - 38.2. Very impressive. I seem to always make money betting Servis horses on the grass. That barn has a powerful win pct for this distance/surface. That 98 fig this colt notched in his last affair tells me he's a big time player in today's event. The improved speed figs over the last 3 races is strong. Servis drops him in this event ready to win.

Vulnerable Contenders: #1 WORD ON THE STREET (ML=6/1), #8 TERRY'S CHARM (ML=6/1), #7 SALUTE THE COLONEL (ML=8/1),

WORD ON THE STREET - Last performed on September 9th at Kentucky Downs, finishing tenth. Not likely to perk up off of that try in today's race. This steed ran a most unsatisfactory speed rating last time out. He shouldn't improve and will likely get beat today running that rating. TERRY'S CHARM - Hard to put any cash on this colt on the win end. Likes to hit the board though. No pace in this field to help set-up his late kick. SALUTE THE COLONEL - This rallier should have a rough go of it to get up with the absence of pace in this race.

Top HatGUEST COMMENTARY: The Turf Man - CRUZ DIEZ - This noble animal, posting the top average class figure, figures to give these ponies a run for their money.

# 3 BONA FIDE OA 5/2

# 5 HW DOUBLE DOWN PERRY 3/1

# 1 ROQUES SECRET STORM 8/1

BONA FIDE OA looks formidable to best this field. Is hard not to consider based on Equibase Speed Figures which have been respectable - 56 avg - of late. He looks solid in this spot and I expect will be on the lead or close at the midpoint. Must be given a shot - I like the figs from the last contest. HW DOUBLE DOWN PERRY - Overall the Equibase Speed Figures of this horse look formidable in this competition. This gelding looks strong in this competition since Fales has a sharp win percent with horses going this distance. ROQUES SECRET STORM - Don't let this gelding slip past you. Could win at high odds. With a nice Equibase class figure average of 80, has one of the top class advantages in this field.

Woodbine - Race #10 - Post: 5:24pm - Maiden Claiming - 8.5 furlongs on the Dirt. Purse: $19,500 Class Rating: 68

Rating: 4

#8 OCEAN COURT (ML=3/1)
#9 DELASTE DANCE (ML=20/1)

OCEAN COURT - That recent bullet 48.2 work shows that this filly is ready for a top effort today. This filly is in good physical condition. Ended up third on November 12th. Another way to determine class is earnings per race. This horse has the highest in the group. I think she'll be close at the finish line. DELASTE DANCE - Filly made a nice late run going 6 1/2 furlongs on November 17th. I have to like her chances stretching out today.

Vulnerable Contenders: #1 SUMMER FALLS (IRE) (ML=4/1), #3 BLUE PEARLS (ML=5/1), #2 GEORGIA SWEETS (ML=6/1),

SUMMER FALLS (IRE) - Hasn't been close at all recently. Garnered a substandard fig last time out in a $25,000 Maiden Claiming race on November 22nd. Unlikely to see an improved performance off of that fig. BLUE PEARLS - This filly has had numerous tries at Woodbine and still no wins. GEORGIA SWEETS - 6/1 odds isn't enough for this entrant when looking at the most recent showings.

STRAIGHT WAGERS:
#8 OCEAN COURT is the play if we get odds of 7/5 or better

# 4 STRYKR FORCE 8/1

# 5 A PASSION FOR FLASHN 7/2

STRYKR FORCE figures to be the wager in here especially at 8/1. Could beat this group of animals given the 94 speed figure put up in his last outing. Gamblers should probably take a good look at this one as this gelding has one of the best win percentages at this distance in this field. This gelding has been constatntly running well in his latest outings. ESTRELLA DAMM - Should go to the lead and might never look back. Always seems to be close up at the finish. A PASSION FOR FLASHN - Has been consistently running well lately. Has run strongly when running a short race.

Preview: Magic at KnicksGracenote
Dec 2, 2017

The New York Knicks managed to turn in a big win despite being without star forward Kristaps Porzingis on Wednesday, and they may have to try and pull the same trick again. The Knicks hope to have Porzingis back from an ankle injury when they host the Orlando Magic on Sunday.

Porzingis left Wednesday's 115-86 win over the Miami Heat less than three minutes into the contest with an injured right ankle and, though MRI results came back negative, he is considered day-to-day. New York went 0-2 earlier this season with Porzingis sidelined due to back and elbow issues, and the 7-3 Latvian star is averaging 25.8 points, 6.8 rebounds and 2.1 blocks while shooting 46.7 percent from the floor. The Magic won't be fooled by an injury report after watching Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson, all listed as day-to-day prior to the game, light them up for a combined 75 points on 30-of-48 shooting in a 133-112 home loss to the Golden State Warriors on Friday. Orlando allowed Golden State to shoot 62.5 percent from the floor while suffering its 10th loss in 11 games.
TV: 3:30 p.m. ET, FS Florida (Orlando), MSG (New York)

ABOUT THE MAGIC (9-14): Orlando watched an offense operating the way it wants to operate on Friday and at least got another encouraging performance from forward Aaron Gordon, who scored 29 points on 12-of-23 shooting. The 22-year-old scored 40 points in a win over Oklahoma City on Wednesday went 11-of-23 from 3-point range in the last two games. "Teammates are doing a great job getting me the ball and I'm just looking to make the right play," Gordon told reporters. "I'm just taking what's there. I've always wanted to be somebody that can score in a multitude of ways."
ABOUT THE KNICKS (11-10): New York was able to survive most of the game without Porzingis on Wednesday thanks to the superb play of center Enes Kanter, who collected 22 points on 7-of-9 shooting and 14 rebounds in the win. "Enes was a monster today," Porzingis told the New York Daily News. "That gives us so much energy when he gets those second chance opportunities for us. He brings so much energy to us. His presence was felt today, by us and by the other team obviously. It's good to have him back." Kanter, who missed the previous three games -- all losses -- with a back injury, shot 66.1 percent from the floor in November.

BUZZER BEATERS

1. Knicks rookie PG Frank Ntilikina (ankle) sat out Wednesday's game and joins Porzingis as day-to-day.

2. Magic C Nikola Vucevic was held to a season-low six points on 3-of-7 shooting on Friday.

3. Orlando topped New York 112-99 at home on Nov. 8 -- a game that Porzingis missed.

Preview: Warriors at HeatGracenote
Dec 2, 2017

The Golden State Warriors occasionally show off just how well their offense is capable of performing, like they did on Friday at Orlando. The Warriors will try to replicate that performance and keep their stars healthy when they continue a six-game road trip with a visit to the Miami Heat on Sunday.

Golden State recorded an NBA season-high 46 assists and shot 62.5 percent from the floor despite stars Stephen Curry (finger), Kevin Durant (ankle) and Klay Thompson (ankle) nursing injuries that had them considered day-to-day prior to the contest. “Forty-six assists is insane,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr told reporters. “If we can just play with that kind of energy, with a little better judgment, and a little better defense, then we’re on to something. But this is a good step in the right direction." While the Warriors lead the NBA in assists (30.8), the Heat rank 24th (21). Miami did a better job of sharing the ball with 25 assists on Friday as it opened a two-game homestand with a 105-100 win over the Charlotte Hornets, led by six assists in 30 minutes off the bench from center Kelly Olynyk.
TV: 7 p.m. ET, NBCS Bay Area (Golden State), FS Sun (Miami)

ABOUT THE WARRIORS (17-6): Durant went 10-of-14 from the floor in 30 minutes on Friday before getting ejected for arguing a non-foul call. "Oh yeah, it should have been two shots, but he didn't give me an explanation on that," Durant told reporters of official Eric Lewis. "I guess because I kept asking him about it, he tossed me." Curry is learning to play with a painful finger on his shooting hand and was the only starter to shoot under 50 percent from the floor on Friday, going 9-of-20 en route to 23 points while adding 10 assists.
ABOUT THE HEAT (11-11): Only one of Miami's 25 assists on Friday came from small forward Josh Richardson, but he was busy making sure everyone else's passes ended in a bucket. The 24-year-old, who averages 9.6 points and is shooting 39.7 percent on the season, scored a career-high 27 points on 11-of-14 shooting. "This was the player who looked like this coming out of training camp, but you do have to credit J-Rich for his character and competitiveness," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra told reporters of Richardson. "Even while he’s been struggling from the field, he’s been an all-NBA defender. He hasn’t let that affect the effort he brings to each game. It was great to see him play with that kind of passion. His enthusiasm was infectious to the rest of the guys."

BUZZER BEATERS

1. Warriors SF Andre Iguodala (knee) sat out Friday and is day-to-day.

2. Heat PG Goran Dragic is 7-of-29 from the floor over the last three games.

3. Golden State took six of the last seven meetings but fell at Miami 105-102 last season.

Preview: Clippers at TimberwolvesGracenote
Dec 2, 2017

The Minnesota Timberwolves have struggled to string together wins of late but a favorable stretch of the schedule may help them find a rhythm. The stretch begins Sunday night when the Los Angeles Clippers - fresh off a 26-point loss at lowly Dallas on Saturday - visit the Timberwolves, who have exchanged losses and wins over the last seven outings.

Including Sunday's contest, Minnesota plays six of its next seven games against the five worst teams in the Western Conference - four of them at home. The Timberwolves are coming off a 111-107 loss at Oklahoma City in which they struggled to overcome the Thunder's 42-point first quarter and were outrebounded 42-26. "You can't give a team like that two or three shots at a time, so there was times in the second half that I thought we defended OK, but then gave them a second or third shot," Minnesota coach Tom Thibodeau told reporters. "When you do that for great players, you're going to pay for it, and we did." Los Angeles is 0-2 since losing star forward Blake Griffin to a knee injury, and the two losses have come by an average of 22.5 points.

TV: 7 p.m. ET, Prime Ticket (Los Angeles), FSN North (Minnesota)

ABOUT THE CLIPPERS (8-13): DeAndre Jordan scored 14 points on 6-of-7 shooting and hauled in 17 rebounds at Dallas, but his fellow starters combined to go 11-of-44 from the floor. The reserves weren't a whole lot better and backup forward Sam Dekker missed all seven of his shots in a scoreless 13 minutes. Los Angeles was outrebounded by 16, one shy of matching its largest single-game deficit on the glass this season.

ABOUT THE TIMBERWOLVES (13-10): Point guard Jeff Teague returned from an Achilles injury and showed no ill effects with 11 points and 10 assists against Oklahoma City. "Little winded, but I was OK," Teague told reporters after a 34-minute effort. "I didn't know I'd play that much. (Tyus Jones) has been playing really well. I figured he'd play more, too." Jones averaged 12.3 points on 54.2 percent shooting, 6.7 assists and four steals in three starts while Teague was sidelined but saw just 11 minutes versus the Thunder.

BUZZER BEATERS

1. Timberwolves SF Andrew Wiggins is averaging 25.5 points while making 18-of-32 shots in the last two contests.

2. Clippers SF Wesley Johnson is 1-for-10 from 3-point range over his last three games after going 11-for-15 over his previous three.

3. Minnesota C Karl-Anthony Towns averaged 30 points and 12 rebounds as Minnesota won two of three meetings last season.

Preview: Spurs at ThunderGracenote
Dec 2, 2017

The Oklahoma City Thunder added All-Stars Carmelo Anthony and Paul George to a roster that already included reigning MVP Russell Westbrook, but the production of the role players on the roster could determine how far the team goes. The Thunder will try to get another strong performance from someone other than the big three and earn a second consecutive win when they host the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday.

George went for 36 points in Friday's 111-107 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday, but the performance of the game came from center Steven Adams, who scored 27 points by going 11-of-11 from the field and 5-of-5 from the free-throw line. "His presence was felt," Westbrook told reporters of Adams. "He did a good job of just being in the paint all night long and using his size and length." The Spurs have size and length in the form of power forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who scored a game-high 22 points in Friday's 95-78 win at Memphis -- San Antonio's fourth straight win and eighth in the last 10 games. Aldridge scored 26 points when the Spurs overcame a 23-point deficit and knocked off Oklahoma City 104-101 at home on Nov. 17.
TV: 7 p.m. ET, NBATV, FS Southwest (San Antonio), FS Oklahoma

ABOUT THE SPURS (15-7): Aldridge is close to getting more help in the form of All-Star Kawhi Leonard, who is practicing with the full team as he continues to recover from a quad injury. Leonard is traveling with the team on the trip in order to continue practicing but is still not cleared to return to game action. In the meantime, San Antonio is getting solid work at the small forward spot from Kyle Anderson and Rudy Gay, who combined to go 8-of-12 from the floor in Friday's win.
ABOUT THE THUNDER (9-12): Oklahoma City is working on building chemistry with Westbrook, George and Anthony, and Friday's win marked a step in the right direction. "It was just about finding guys," George told reporters. "We draw so much attention, myself, Russ, Melo, that we have to be mindful when we do draw that attention. That's what this offense has got to be about. When we bring two to the ball, we have to move it, we have to play off of one another." Westbrook handed out 14 assists on Friday while Anthony sacrificed some shots to the hotter hands and ended up 4-of-7 from the floor in 29 minutes

BUZZER BEATERS

1. Westbrook went 0-of-8 from 3-point range on Friday after going 7-of-10 in a loss at Orlando on Wednesday.

2. Spurs SG Danny Green went scoreless on 0-of-7 shooting Friday -- the second time in the last five games that he missed all of his field-goal attempts.

3. Oklahoma City F Jerami Grant is shooting 51.6 percent from the floor but failed to score in double figures in any of the last five games.

Preview: Rockets at LakersGracenote
Dec 3, 2017

The Houston Rockets are coming off a dominant 4-0 homestand, but they've been truly spectacular on the road this season and will commence a three-game trip at the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday. The Rockets, who have won six in a row and 12 of 13, took four straight at the Toyota Center by an average of 20 points, barely eclipsing that mark in Wednesday's 118-97 victory over Indiana.

They've also won their last five road contests by an average of 21.6 points to improve to 9-1 away from home and help build an allotment of routs that has actually challenged the team's focus at times. "It's tough," forward P.J. Tucker told the Houston Chronicle of staying focused in lopsided affairs. "It's something we talk about every day, though: 'Pay attention to us.' It's more about us than anybody else. We have to challenge ourselves to be better, because we're still thinking in these games, we're not playing great. We're winning by big margins, but we're not playing great." James Harden certainly is, and the superstar guard entered Saturday leading the NBA in scoring (31.5) and assists (9.8) after going for 29 and 10 in the win over Indiana. The Lakers have lost a season-high four in a row and will be hard-pressed to find the energy to stick with the Rockets after they fell 115-100 in Denver late Saturday.

TV: 9:30 p.m. ET, NBATV, AT&T SportsNet Southwest (Houston), Spectrum SportsNet (Los Angeles)

ABOUT THE ROCKETS (17-4): Houston's current six-game run - during which it has averaged 120.7 points - coincides with the return of point guard Chris Paul from a knee injury, and the veteran has been running the show with incredible efficiency. "The court's so open, you get in there, you make the easy play for the most part," Paul told reporters. "I don't expect to have any (turnovers). It's like a quarterback. You don't plan to have interceptions because every time you turn it over, it's an opportunity for the other team." Paul has 72 assists and only nine turnovers in seven games this season and has just four giveaways in 120 minutes over a four-game span.

ABOUT THE LAKERS (8-14): Los Angeles went into the fourth quarter with the lead at Denver before fading late. Guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope had scored at least 20 points in four straight games before being held to three on 1-of-7 shooting - including 0-of-4 from 3-point range Saturday. Forward Brandon Ingram led the way with 20 points and he is averaging 26 over the last two games, although the 20-year-old has three assists and 12 turnovers in that span and was part of a unit that tied a season high with 21 giveaways against the Nuggets.

BUZZER BEATERS

1. Rockets C Clint Capela has scored at least 20 points in consecutive games for the first time in his career.

2. The Lakers have given up an average of 118.8 points during their four-game slide.

3. Houston won two meetings with Los Angeles at home last season while averaging 136.5 points, but it lost 120-114 in its lone visit to the Lakers.

PREDICTION: Rockets 116, Lakers 105

Preview: Kings at BlackhawksGracenote
Dec 3, 2017

The Los Angeles Kings have regained their mojo after a rough stretch in the middle of November and go after a fifth consecutive victory when they visit the Chicago Blackhawks on Sunday night. The Kings sprinted to a 9-1-1 start, but a 1-6-1 slump from November 9-24 knocked them out of first place in the Western Division before allowing five goals during their current streak.

Los Angeles knocked off Washington 5-2 on Thursday before outlasting St. Louis 4-1 with 39 saves from backup goalie Darcy Kuemper just 24 hours later to improve to 3-0-0 with one game left on a difficult road trip. “It was a good hockey game,” Kings coach John Stevens told reporters after his team was outshot 40-28 on Friday. “It was back-to-back against two really good teams that play heavy games. I thought the guys really dug in.” The Blackhawks have gone three games without a win (0-1-2) after dropping a 3-2 shootout decision Saturday against Dallas and is without its No. 1 goaltender Corey Crawford, who was placed on injured reserve with an undisclosed injury. Chicago still owns a point in seven of its last eight contests and leading scorer Patrick Kane has posted 13 points in the past 10 games.

TV: 7 p.m. ET, NHL Network, FSN West (Los Angeles), NBCSN Chicago

ABOUT THE KINGS (16-8-3): Jonathan Quick should be back in goal for the finale of the trip after yielding only six goals in his last four outings, but he is 10-15-1 in 26 career regular-season contests against Chicago. Tyler Toffoli recorded three goals in the last two games to push his season total to 13 and tie for the team lead with captain Anze Kopitar, who has scored four times in the last five contests. Drew Doughty boasts five points in the past five outings and fellow defenseman Jake Muzzin, who will play his 400th NHL contest Sunday, has three assists in a three-game span.

ABOUT THE BLACKHAWKS (12-9-5): Rookie Alex DeBrincat was kept off the scoresheet Saturday but has still posted six points in the last four games and is second on the team with 11 goals - one behind Artem Anisimov. Left wing Brandon Saad recorded his third goal in five games Saturday after managing one over the previous 15 outings while captain Jonathan Toews had an assist for his first point in four contests. Anton Forsberg made 33 saves in the shootout loss Saturday and Jean-Francois Berube could get the nod Sunday after being recalled to replace Crawford on the roster.

OVERTIME

1. Los Angeles RW Marian Gaborik needs two goals to reach 400 in his career and is two points shy of 800 in the NHL.

2. Chicago D Cody Franson recorded his first goal in a Blackhawks uniform Saturday after posting six assists in his first 15 games.

3. The Kings have triumphed in four of the last five meetings, winning both matchups in overtime last season.

Preview: Senators at JetsGracenote
Dec 2, 2017

The Winnipeg Jets woke up Saturday morning in first place in the Western Conference, but there is not a lot of celebrating entering Sunday’s home contest against the Ottawa Senators. The Jets, who have never won a playoff game in franchise history, improved to 8-0-1 in their last nine home games with a 7-4 victory over Vegas on Friday thanks to three power-play goals and continued production from all four lines.

“We’re enjoying winning, which is kind of new to our group, but we’re not fitting ourselves for rings or anything like that,” Jets captain Blake Wheeler told reporters after recording three points in Friday’s victory. The Senators snapped a seven-game losing streak Friday, upending the New York Islanders 6-5 as Ryan Dzingel scored twice. “We’re very happy about the resiliency and getting through tough times,” Ottawa coach Guy Boucher told the media afterward. Mike Condon came on after Craig Anderson allowed five goals on 18 shots and shut out the Islanders the rest of the way.

TV: 7 p.m. ET, TVA (Ottawa), Sportsnet (Winnipeg)

ABOUT THE SENATORS (9-9-6): Ottawa entered Friday with just one goal in its previous 27 power-play chances, but converted 2-of-3 opportunities against the Islanders. Defenseman Thomas Chabot, playing in just his seventh NHL game, scored his first career goal and added two assists. Forward Bobby Ryan was slashed on the hand Friday and his status for Sunday is unknown.

ABOUT THE JETS (16-6-4): Center Mark Scheifele recorded three points Friday and is tied for fourth in the NHL in points (13 goals, 32 points), one point ahead of Wheeler entering Saturday. Forward Patrik Laine also finished with three points on Friday, finishing with one goal and two assists. Goaltender Connor Hellebuyck is 14-2-3 and ranks ninth in the NHL in goals against average (2.43).

OVERTIME

1. Ottawa D Erik Karlsson has not recorded a point in eight consecutive games, matching the longest pointless streak of his career.

2. The Jets finished 44-of-73 on faceoffs Friday, setting season highs for percentage and faceoff wins.

3. The Senators claimed F Chris DiDomenico from Tampa Bay on Saturday, nine days after the team waived the 28-year-old.

Preview: Coyotes at Golden KnightsGracenote
Dec 3, 2017

The Vegas Golden Knights hope to avoid registering the longest losing streak in the club’s first season of existence when they host the Arizona Coyotes on Sunday night. The Golden Knights have dropped three in a row for the second time after a 7-4 setback at Winnipeg on Friday and attempt to continue their strong work at home where they are 9-2-0, including a 5-2 victory against Arizona on Oct. 10.

Vegas coach Gerard Gallant told reporters his team only played well in spurts Friday and rookie forward Alex Tuch said the forechecking has to be better: “It has to be a connected unit. That’s what made us so successful at the beginning of the season.” The Golden Knights have given up 14 goals during their losing streak but can record a fourth straight victory against Arizona, which snapped a three-game slide with a convincing 5-0 victory over red-hot New Jersey on Saturday. Veteran center Derek Stepan notched a goal and an assist and former third-overall pick Dylan Strome scored for the first time in the NHL as the Coyotes improved to 5-3-1 over their last nine contests to climb out of the bottom spot in the league. Scott Wedgewood made 27 saves for the shutout Saturday, but No. 1 goalie Antti Raanta (upper-body) is close to returning for Arizona.

TV: 8 p.m. ET, FSN Arizona, AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain (Vegas)

ABOUT THE COYOTES (7-18-4): Stepan moved within one point of defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson (18) for second on the team with his productive night while forward Jordan Martinook scored for the first time since Oct. 30. Rookie center Clayton Keller still leads Arizona with 22 points after recording an assist Saturday, but extended his goal drought to 13 contests. Strome had one assist in 11 NHL games before scoring against the Devils and has registered two shots on goal in each of three games since being recalled from Tucson of the American Hockey League.

ABOUT THE GOLDEN KNIGHTS (15-9-1): Forward William Karlsson had another goal Friday to give him 10 to go along with four assists over the last 10 contests, and leads the team in tallies (14) and points (24). Jonathan Marchessault has been almost as hot as Karlsson with 13 points in his last eight games to bring his total to 23 - three more than fellow forward Reilly Smith for second on the team. Defenseman Deryk Engelland missed the game against Winnipeg and is considered day-to-day after appearing to be hit on the hand with shot Thursday against Minnesota.

OVERTIME

1. Vegas LW David Perron has 11 points in his last nine contests and needs three to reach 400 in his career.

2. Arizona F Zac Rinaldo had an assist Saturday and his next game will be the 300th of his NHL career.

3. The Golden Knights are 0-for-10 on the power play over the last three games, and sat 17th in the league entering Saturday (18.7 percent).

Preview: Stars at AvalancheGracenote
Dec 3, 2017

Nathan MacKinnon was named the NHL’s No. 1 Star of the Month for November and looks to get going after a slow start to December when his Colorado Avalanche host the Central Division-rival Dallas Stars on Sunday night. MacKinnon accumulated five goals and 15 assists in 12 games during November, but was kept off the scoresheet in Friday’s 2-1 loss to New Jersey despite five shots on net.

MacKinnon won’t have one of his linemates as captain Gabriel Landeskog will sit out the third contest of a four-game suspension for an illegal hit and Nail Yakupov took the spot in Friday’s setback with Mikko Rantanen on the other side. The Avalanche look to turn things around after losing two of the first three contests on their five-game homestand and must raise their level of play against the Stars, who have won four in a row and six of their last seven outings. Dallas extended its winning streak by sweeping a home-and-home series with Chicago, taking the first in overtime and the second 3-2 in a shootout Saturday night. Ben Bishop allowed 13 goals while starting each of the last seven games but could give way Sunday to backup Kari Lehtonen, who has not played since Nov. 18.

TV: 8 p.m. ET, FSN Southwest (Dallas), Altitude (Colorado)

ABOUT THE STARS (15-10-1): Center Radek Faksa notched his fifth goal in three games Saturday and became the third player to reach 10 on the team, following Tyler Seguin (12) and Jamie Benn (11). Seguin tops the team with 25 points after posting an assist Saturday and owns four goals in six games while Alexander Radulov scored last time out to push his total to 23 points. Center Martin Hanzal (hamstring) is considered week-to-week and Antoine Roussel (illness) sat out Saturday as fellow forward Curtis McKenzie was recalled.

ABOUT THE AVALANCHE (12-10-2): Forward J.T. Compher scored Friday and has three of his four on the season in his last seven contests, registering eight points in 18 games overall. MacKinnon tops the team with 28 points with the 21-year-old Rantanen eight behind him and defenseman Tyson Barrie at 19 after recording three assists in the last four games. Veteran defenseman Erik Johnson, who has been held off the scoresheet in four straight outings, is slated to play his 600th NHL game Sunday.

OVERTIME

1. The teams have already met three times this season with the Avalanche taking the last two at home, including a 3-0 triumph Nov. 22.

2. Dallas has turned its season around despite struggling on the power play, which is 2-for-31 over the last nine games.

3. Colorado F Colin Wilson (hip) missed his second consecutive contest Friday and coach Jared Bednar told reporters he is day-to-day.

PREDICTION: Stars 3, Avalanche 2
