Sunday’s meeting between the Washington Commanders and New York Jets at the Meadowlands will pit the league’s worst offense, the Jets — who sit as a 3-point favorite in NFL odds — vs. the league’s worst defense in the Commanders. 

With Sam Howell getting the nod to start, should bettors be looking to fade his passing total in a game where that the QB doesn’t play four quarters after Jacoby Brissett’s performance in Week 15?

I break down the Week 16 odds and offer my free NFL picks for Commanders vs. Jets on Sunday, December 24.

All hail the Chiefs! The defending champs kick off the 2024 NFL season in grand style tonight when they host the Ravens at Arrowhead Stadium.

It’s a rematch of last year’s highly contentious AFC Championship, in which Kansas City held Baltimore to just three second half points to prevail 17-10. That game was seen by 64 million viewers, making it one of the most watched broadcasts in the history of CBS. 

There are a number of subscription-based TV channels and streaming services available to watch this evening’s game, but did you know you can also live stream the action directly from legal sports betting sites?

Discover the details below and be sure to read our Ravens vs. Chiefs predictions ahead of kickoff at 8:20 p.m. ET.

Sean Dyche is hoping Everton can find their clinical edge upon their return to Premier League action having been dumped out of the Carabao Cup in midweek by Southampton.

Everton were beaten on penalties by the Saints on Tuesday after seeing Abdoulaye Doucoure’s goal cancelled out by Taylor Harwood-Bellis.

The Toffees ended the contest with an expected goals (xG) total of 1.54 compared to Southampton’s 0.53, but could only manage four shots on target, the same as their opponents.

Taking opportunities in front of goal has been a persistent problem for Everton this season, with Dyche acknowledging his side must improve when they travel to face Leicester this weekend.

“Yet again we’ve created golden chances, and you’ve got to score those chances and…

Lucas Moura expressed his excitement to play in the Champions League with Tottenham, but warned the upcoming campaign could be his last with the Premier League side.

Moura joined Spurs from Paris Saint-Germain in 2018 on a five-year contract, which is due to expire next June.

The 29-year-old appeared 34 times in the 2021-22 Premier League term, scoring two goals and assisting six, while creating 34 chances as Tottenham secured Champions League qualification.

Brazil compatriots Richarlison and Raphinha have been linked as Antonio Conte looks to bolster his squad to compete in Europe, with Fraser Forster, Ivan Perisic and Yves Bissouma already signed.

Moura also has to compete with the likes of Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevski for a starting …

Borussia Dortmund kicked off their domestic campaign with a relatively straightforward 2-0 victory at Chemnitzer in the DFB-Pokal first round.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang opened the scoring in the 25th minute but, with less than a week to go until Dortmund s first Bundesliga fixture against Borussia Monchengladbach, Thomas Tuchel s side resisted the urge to overexert themselves in search of more goals.

That said, the visitors were in control for the most part and rarely looked in danger of surrendering their slender advantage.

Marco Reus and Ilkay Gundogan both came close to doubling Dortmund s lead either side of the break, while third-tier Chemnitzer briefly threatened an equaliser late on.

But Henrikh Mkhitaryan produced a neat finish in the 82nd minu…

Pep Guardiola spoke of his pride after Manchester City thrashed Fluminense 4-0 to win the Club World Cup for the first time on Friday.

It was the club’s fifth trophy of a memorable 2023 after their previous successes in the Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup and European Super Cup.

Julian Alvarez began the rout after just 40 seconds, teed up another for Phil Foden and then wrapped up a one-sided victory in the closing minutes. City also benefited from an own goal as they overran their Brazilian opponents.

Your 2023 champions!

City manager Guardiola, who had previously won the competition three times, told the club’s website: “I am so proud of this club. What we have done is an outstanding achievement.<…

Week 15 in the NFL features a rivalry clash between the Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns.

Ravens wide receiver Devin Duvernay has been a no-show, but running back Gus Edwards won’t be disappearing anytime soon despite a monster game from J.K. Dobbins last week. Meanwhile, Browns QB Deshaun Watson should continue to shake off the rust despite some winter weather on Saturday. 

Here are my favorite NFL prop picks for this AFC North rivalry…and make sure to check out our full Ravens vs. Browns betting preview for more.

When putting this article together this week, I couldn’t help but think to myself that there are a lot of team total-related trends here — just one of those weeks in the latest NFL odds, I guess.

Team totals aren’t an incredibly popular betting market, but maybe they should be, because it’s an easier handicap if you think about it. When betting a team total, you’re simply narrowing your analysis down to an offense vs. a defense, which eliminates a lot of factors that are involved in a traditional full-game bet. 

I usually have at least one team total on my card this week, but I’ll likely set a personal record for the amount I play in Week 16 odds — what could go wrong? 

Enough about me though. Taking a…
