NFL | Ravens vs Browns
Play on: OVER 40 -110

Free pick on Browns OVER

I just don't think the mark here is high enough for Sunday's AFC North clash between the Ravens and Browns. I'm not expecting a 38-31 shootout or anything like that, but I don't think it's asking a lot for these two to eclipse 40 points.

Cleveland's offense has shown some flashes since they added in Josh Gordon. He's caught 7 passes for 154 yards and score in two starts since returning from his suspension. I think he's starting to find his rhythm with DeShone Kizer and could be in store for a big day. Keep in mind the Ravens recently lost their best corner in Jimmy Smith and without him in their last game, Pittsburgh's Antonio Brown had 11 catches for 213 yards. Roethlisberger also connected 10 times with Jesse James and 9 times with Le'Veon Bell, as he threw for 506 yards.

As for the Ravens offense, I think they were so bad early on that people are overlooking their strong showings of late. Baltimore's 38 points were definitely aided by the Steelers missing star linebacker Ryan Shazier, but they also had 44 the week before against Detroit and are averaging 31.3 ppg over their last 6. Cleveland's defense is better than it gets credit for, but it's also allowed 27 or more in 4 of their last 6 games.

It's also worth noting that Baltimore has trended towards playing in high-scoring games than expected when coming off a heartbreaking division loss. The OVER is 16-6 in their last 22 games when they are coming off a loss by 3-points or less to a division rival. OVER is also 5-1 in their last 6 road games and 6-0 in their last 6 games played in December. Take the OVER!

DMack's Free NFL Play for Sunday, December 17, 2017, is on the Baltimore Ravens

Cleveland just keeps finding ways to lose and are running out of time to avoid a 0-16 bagel. That said, despite losing their last two home game in overtime, they may want to leave it all on the field in Chicago next week. The Ravens are 17-2 over the L9 in the series and easily dispatched Cleveland 24-10 in Week Two as the Browns turned the ball over five times. Baltimore is still in the thick of the wildcard race and needs a win here so they won't overlook the brownies here. Flacco has the offense humming now producing 82 points the last two games and rolling to nine touchdowns in the teams L22 drives. Cleveland has a penchant for giving it up late, outscored 90-37 in the second half of their L6 games and that seals the deal for us.

Jim Feist's Comp Pick, Sunday, December 17, 2017

12/17 10:00 AM PT / 1:00 PM ET

NFL (309) GREEN BAY PACKERS VS (310) CAROLINA PANTHERS

Take: (310) CAROLINA PANTHERS

Reason: Your free play for Sunday, Decmeber 17, 2017 is in the NFL Contest between the Green Bay Packers and the Carolina Panthers. The Packers are on life support in the NFC playoff picture. They MUST win out to even have a remote chance at making the postseason. The good news is that QB Aaron Rodgers returns today and just how rusty he will be is yet to be determined. You really cannot underestimate just how important Rodgers return to the lineup is for the Packers. Plus, his legs will be fresh with the time off. Carolina is coming off that big win over the Vikings last week, 31-24. It was the Panthers fifth win in their last six games. Carolina's offense has been very good too, scoring at least 26 points in their last three games. QB Cam Newton has only one INT in his last five games. I look for both of these teams to score points in bunches today. I'm not convinced that Rodgers return is enough to beat a very good Carolina team on their home turf. I'm taking Carolina here and laying the points.

Cincinnati at MINNESOTA (42 un, -110)
By Tommy Brunson

After 3 in a row on the road, Minnesota is finally back home for just their second home game since October 29th!

Going to look for the Vikes to be able to generate some offense against a Bengals team that allowed Chicago to post 33 points on them last week in Cincinnati. While that game did hold Under the total due to the fact Cincy could only muster a touchdown in their 33-7 lay-down performance, the Bengals have played 2 of their last 3, and 3 of their last 5 overall Over the posted total.

Minnesota is fresh off an Over in Carolina, and have landed Over the total in 5 of their last 7 games.

The Vikings offensive line is now showing some dings and bruises, and that means QB - Case Keenum is starting to get a little pressured and making some bad decisions - 2 interceptions and a lost fumble in last Sunday's game against the Panthers - so count on there being some short-field scoring opportunities for Cincy in this game.

The Over is 5-1 in Minnesota's last 6 games following a straight up loss, and the Over is also 5-1 the Vikings last 6 games when facing a team with a losing road record.

This game's total is hanging right around 6 combined touchdowns, and I feel the home-starved host is good for at least 4 TD's and a couple of field goals. I fully expect the visitor to show some pride and post a few scores of their own.

This one is Over by the end of the third quarter.

3* CINCINNATI-MINNESOTA OVER

Nick Foles? No problem!

Let's back the Philadelphia Eagles who have clinched the NFC East and now look to secure home-field advantage throughout the playoffs today when they head into MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The Eagles are coming off off a huge 43-35 road win over the Rams, while the Giants lost to the Cowboys at home by a score of 30-10.

Nick Foles is a capable backup and is more than good enough to destroy this Giants team. Remember, back in 2013/14 he played for the Eagles and had 27 TD passes to just two INTs.

Besides, the Eagles run game is 2nd in the league and the Giants are 31st in the league against the run. The Eagles running game will set up Foles and make it much easier for him to have success passing the ball.

The Eagles will want to send a message with this game to the rest of the league that they will be just fine with Wentz out. The Giants just won’t have enough offense or defense to keep this one close.

Eagles by 2 touchdowns in this one.

2* PHILADELPHIA

My Sunday freebie is the Vikings minus the big number as they look to clinch the NFC North Division, and also get back into consideration for the overall # 1 seed in the NFC.

Minnesota has played one - just one - home game since October 29th, and they are back home after 3 straight away games. Last Sunday saw the Vikings 8-game winning streak (7 game cover streak) halted in a 31-24 loss at Carolina.

Expect the Vikings to handle matters against a Cincinnati team that sure looks like their loss at home to Pittsburgh a few weeks back is having a residual effect on this team. Cincy was trounced to a tune of 33-7 on their home field last weekend by the Chicago Bears, and the Bengals 5-13 spread mark their last 18 against non-division opponents does not bode well for this 1pm contest at US Bank Stadium.

Minnesota is 12-3 against the spread their last 15 versus the AFC, and with another road game coming up at Green Bay next Saturday, look for the Vikings to get things together today and clinch their second division title in the past 3 years.

Vikings by at least 14-points.

2* MINNESOTA
