Sunday NFL best bets 

  • Game: Eagles vs. Broncos (Sunday, 1 p.m. ET)
  • The Pick: Eagles +4.5 (-102)

The Eagles rank 30th in the NFL in total offense through four weeks and have been outgained by a staggering 327 yards, yet they're still unbeaten and they unfailingly make the plays they need to win. Meanwhile, Bo Nix is finding his sophomore season to be much more difficult than his rookie year. His 66.7% clean pocket completion rate ranks 23rd among qualifying quarterbacks this season and his 59.3% blitzed completion percentage ranks 22nd. The Denver defense has also taken a step back and the model is predicting that this could be a breakout game for the Philadelphia offense. The Eagles cover in 58% of simulations.  

  • Game: Jets vs. Dallas Cowboys (Sunday, 1 p.m. ET)
  • The Pick: Jets +1.5 (-118)

Dallas owns the NFL's worst third-down defense, is leaking 33.0 PPG, and will be without CeeDee Lamb and starting safety Malik Hooker. New York's run-heavy attack, mobile QB Justin Fields, and a top-10 situational defense create the exact profile that buries the Cowboys' roster-depleted unit," SportsLine NFL expert Jeff Hochman (11-3 on his last 14 NFL picks) said. "The Jets have a sneaky good defense as they rank 11th in the NFL in quarterback pressure rate through Week 5. New York ranks in the top 12 for third-down and red-zone defensive stops, and their offense matches up well against the Cowboys' defense. Breece Hall and Justin Fields will likely take advantage of Dallas' weak edges and light boxes, which will help control the clock and keep Dak Prescott and the Cowboys on the sidelines."  

  • Game: Carolina Panthers vs. Miami Dolphins (Sunday, 1 p.m. ET)
  • The Pick: Over 45 points (-106)

The Panthers put together about six quarters of good football in nearly completing a comeback from down 27-3 against the Cardinals in Week 2 and then shutting out the Falcons 30-0 in Week 3. However, they were drubbed 42-13 by the Patriots last week. Meanwhile, the Dolphins finally got into the win column with a 27-21 win over the Jets last week and the offense has been steadily improving, but the defense is still horrid. Both of these teams should struggle to stop each other and that's why the model has the Over hitting in 62% of simulations.
