Top Week 12 NFL predictions
We can tell you that one of the model’s strongest Week 12 NFL picks is the Bears (+3.5, 39.5) covering the spread at home against the Vikings. No team has a better spread against the Bruins at home (4-1), and this isn’t a one-year thing. Chicago has the best anti-spread home record (8-3-2) since the start of last season. Meanwhile, the Vikings have not covered in two of their last three road games. Additionally, after starting the year a perfect 5-0 against the spread (ATS), the Vikings are just 2-3 ATS over their last five games overall.
The Bruins’ offense showed new life under a new offensive coordinator in Sunday’s loss to Green Bay as Chicago scored 19 points, after averaging just nine points over its previous three games. Defensively, the Bears could also take advantage of a sloppy Vikings offense that has committed the fifth most giveaways this season. Chicago went three straight games without turning the ball over and ranks third in the most important turnover difference statistic (plus-nine). SportsLine’s advanced model has the Bears (+3.5) covering almost 60% of the time. See which other teams to pick here.
Another one of its Week 12 NFL predictions: the Eagles (-3, 49) cover on the road against the Rams on Sunday Night Football. Philadelphia has won seven of the last eight meetings with the Rams, and Philly rolls into this matchup with five straight road wins against the Rams. This season, Philadelphia boasts the best ATS road record in the league (5-1), is on a six-game winning streak straight, and the Eagles have covered in four of their last five games.
After having the second-worst pass defense last season, the Eagles have done a 180 and are now the second-best defense through the air. That will make it difficult for Los Angeles to move the ball as LA already ranks 30th in yards per rushing attempt and is not expected to find much success in the passing game against Philly’s stout defense. The Rams are also in the bottom eight in both third-down conversion percentage and red-zone scoring. With these factors, the Eagles (-3) are predicted to cover in well over 50% of simulations, with the model also saying that the Sub (48) hits over 50% of the time. See which other teams to pick here.
