Happy New Year, everyone! As we flip the calendar to January, we have plenty of resolutions to make. One is to win more bets, which we will hopefully get started on right away with our NFL best bets for Week 17. Whether you prefer wagering on the moneyline, spreads, over/unders, or props, we have you covered with a plethora of solid wagering opportunities.Every Wednesday, we meticulously review the betting offerings on like .We find the best bets for the upcoming slate of NFL games, typically selecting eight-to-10 wagers that strike us as both interesting and Taj Gibson Jersey most likely to win you some cash. We analyze the stats, betting trends, and sharp betting reports to offer you the best advice and give you the greatest odds of achieving weekly betting succe s.Last week, we nailed two of three spread bets with the Bengals (-3) over the Patriots and the Giants (+4) at Minnesota. We crushed the Bills-Bears OVER (40.5) and the Bucs-Cards UNDER (40), and we safely hit the OVER on our sole player prop (Trevor Lawrence 218.5 pa sing yards).Five big hits is nothing to sneeze at, but we want to double that in Week 17.This is the best time of the year to bet on the NFL because we know the true identity of most teams. Let's keep putting in the work, finding edges, and capitalizing with smart wagers so we can continue hitting it big. Without further ado, we present our best bets for Week 17 of the NFL season.JUMP TO: | | | All odds are courtesy of .Eagles (-6) vs. SaintsWith Jalen Hurts sidelined due to a right shoulder injury last week, Philly fell to the Cowboys in a 40-34 shootout. With Hurts potentially bad this week, all signs point to this being a blowout, as New Orleans has become a shell of its formerly dynamic self. The Saints average just 20.2 points per game this season and a measly 18 per game over their past three. They also don't force their opponents into turnovers, posting a league-worst 11 takeaways in 15 games. If Hurts returns, he'll have to kick things into overdrive to remain in the MVP conversation. Even if he's out, Gardner Minshew can help the Eagles cruise a cover, marking its seventh in the past 10 games in which it was favored by between three and seven points.NFL WEEK 17 PICKS: | Jaguars (-3) at TexansThe Jags have won three games in a row and four of their past five, and Trevor Lawrence looks like a playoff QB under Doug New York Knicks Hoodie Pederson. The Texans, meanwhile, have lost nine of their past 10 games and have a bizarre mix of Davis Mills and Jeff Driskel under center. Lovie Smith's gang might have pulled off the improbable upset over Mike Vrabel's haple s Titans last week, but that's more due to Malik Willis being terrible than Houston being good. Don't expect two Texans covers in a row that's like winning $100 on two of the same scratch tickets in succe sion.Buccaneers vs. Panthers: Tampa Bay by 1-6 points (+300)This is a custom winning-margin prop on BetMGM, so the odds are extra enticing. Tom Brady's Bucs have been lumbering (and sometimes stumbling) toward a playoff berth, but it hasn't been all that pretty. Their past six wins have been by an average of 3.6 points, and they have turned the ball over 11 times in the past four games. We expect Brady and the more talented Bucs to win this one no way the GOAT mi ses the playoffs in one of his "swan song" years but we don't anticipate it being by seven points or more. This is actually a sneaky way of getting plus odds for a moneyline win!Other Week 17 spreads we like: 49ers (-9.5) at Raiders; Colts (+5.5) at Giants; Bears (+6) at LionsMORE NFL WEEK 17: Patriots (-145) vs. DolphinsWith Tua Tagovailoa in concu sion protocol, things could go from bad to worse for Miami. Mike McDaniel's high-flying offense has come back down to Earth, and Mario Hezonja Jersey the Dolphins have dropped four straight games. The struggling 'Phins defense has played a part, too. Bill Belichick has always been a master schemer, and he should a semble a strong game plan to contain Teddy Bridgewater's top playmaking duo of Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. We wouldn't touch New England -3, but we're all about the home favorites on the moneyline.Jets (-125) at SeahawksThis is a battle of squads in respective slides. The Jets have lost four games in a row and five of their past six, while the Seahawks have lost three in a row and five of their New York Knicks Jeresy past six. However, New York gets Mike White (ribs) back under center after a two-week absence, and he will be a ma siveupgrade over the brutal Zach Wilson. Gang Green also has one of the most lethal defensive units in the NFL, so we aren't worried about former-Jet Geno Smith, Kenneth Walker III, or Tyler Lockett and his broken finger. Jets fly to the "W."Cardinals (+190) at FalconsBoth these squads have endured tough seasons, with the injury bug playing the most destructive role. Atlanta lost veteran QB Marcus Mariota a few weeks back, and now must navigate treacherous waters with rookie Desmond Ridder. Arizona recently lost Kyler Murray (ACL) and backup Colt McCoy (concu sion protocol), resulting in a surprise promotion for former Raven Trace McSorley. Ridder hasn't been very good, and McCoy is expected back for this game, so I'm backing the Desert Birds. With DeAndre Hopkins and Hollywood Brown out wide and James Conner in the backfield, Arizona has far too many weapons for Atlanta to stop and for Ridder and company to outscore.Other Week 17 moneylines we like: Bucs (-200) vs. Panthers; Ravens (-145) vs. Steelers Cowboys at Titans: OVER 40 (-110)Dallas just hung a 40-burger on the Eagles' usually stout defense last weekend, so we're all over them against an abysmal Titans secondary. Dak Prescott finally looks like he's turned the page and taken a step forward (and all those cliche sports sayings). He has spread the ball around and benefited greatly from Tony Pollard taking pre sure off drives and Ezekiel Elliott regularly finding paydirt Ed Davis Jersey when the Cowboys reach the red zone. I'm not saying this one will be 40-0 I'm just saying Dallas could win by a lot the score should easily eclipse 50.Bills at Bengals: OVER 49.5 (-110)We usually don't go OVER on Monday Night Football, but these are two of the most potent offenses in the NFL vying for optimal playoff seeds. This game should more than make up for an otherwise-lackluster Week 17 slate, as superstar QBs Joe Burrow and Josh Allen each have their full arsenal of pa s-catching options. Buffalo and Cincinnati rank No. 4 and No. 6 in scoring, respectively, with the Bills averaging 28 points per game and the Bengals averaging 26.1. Over the past three weeks, though, each squad has averaged even more points (29 and 26.3, respectively). Cincy has the best ATS record in the league (12-3) and averages 29 points per home game, while Buffalo averages 25.8 points per road game. Pound the OVER and enjoy the show.
