    Weekend best bets: Experts include NFL picks on Thanksgiving, Black Friday​
    LV REVIEW JOURNAL SUBSCRIPTION

    The Cowboys have covered three of their past four home games, including Sunday’s 24-21 comeback win over the Eagles in which they erased a 21-0 deficit.

    But Dallas is on a 3-7 against the spread slide on Thanksgiving Day, and professional sports bettor Cris Zeniuk expects that trend to continue Thursday against the Chiefs at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

    Kansas City is favored by 3 (-115) at several sportsbooks after overcoming a 20-9 fourth-quarter deficit in Sunday’s 23-20 overtime win over the Colts.

    “Kansas City is better coached and will be better prepared to fight their way from the outside looking in in the AFC playoff race. No margin for error,” said Zeniuk (@lasvegascris), who has hit his past two Review-Journal best bets. “My metrics have this a six-point advantage. Lay the three.”

    The Cowboys (5-5-1) have gone under in two of their past three games following a 5-0 over streak. The Chiefs (6-5) have gone under in six straight, and pro sports bettor Randy McKay expects them to extend that streak to 7-0. His best bet is on the Dallas-Kansas City under 52½.

    “This is basically a playoff game,” said McKay (@RR39). “Dallas’ defense is greatly improved with additions and getting used to defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus’ adjustments. Kansas City isn’t an explosive team. It scores with long clock-consuming drives. Dallas has offensive line injuries against a good Chiefs defense led by defensive tackle Chris Jones.”

    Here are four more weekend best bets (home team in CAPS):

    EAGLES (-7) over Bears

    Pro sports bettor Chuck Edel, 9-4 on his RJ best bets, is banking on the Eagles to bounce back from last week’s meltdown on Black Friday against the Bears, who are 8-3 with a -3 point differential.

    “The Eagles offense should get healthy against a banged-up Bears defense on a short week,” said Edel (@chuckedel). “Philadelphia defensive coordinator Vic Fangio will make things difficult for (Chicago quarterback) Caleb Williams.”

    LIONS (-2½, -118) over Packers

    We have conflicting best bets from pro sports bettors Jeff Whitelaw and Scott Pritchard on the opener of the NFL Thanksgiving Day tripleheader.

    Whitelaw bet on the Lions, who are available as 2½-point favorites (-118) over the Packers. Pritchard took the Packers +3.

    Detroit, which rallied for a 34-27 overtime win over the Giants last week, lost 27-13 to Green Bay in the season opener for the NFC North rivals at Lambeau Field.

    “In Week 1, they lost pretty badly to Green Bay in Green Bay. I think they’ll avenge that,” Whitelaw said. “They played poorly last week, and I just think that the line should be higher than it is. I think that they’ll definitely win, and they’ll win by seven to 10.”

    Packers (+3) over LIONS

    “Lions coach Dan Campbell is known for many things. Being an X’s and O’s coach is not one of them,” said Pritchard (@pritchardwins). “The fact that he calls the plays is one reason why he is the problem in Detroit. There is a reason why Green Bay beat Detroit by two touchdowns earlier this year.”

    Season: 54-46-3

    NFL Trends

    Thursday

    Packers at Lions (-3, 48): The Packers are 1-4 against the spread on the road this season and on a 2-8-1 ATS away skid. The Lions are on a 9-4 over run at home. Edge: Slight to over and Lions.

    Chiefs (-3, 52½) at Cowboys: The Chiefs have failed to cover their past three games, and their past six have gone under the total. The Cowboys have covered three of their past four home games. Edge: Slight to under.

    Bengals at Ravens (-7, 51½): The past six meetings have gone over the total. The Bengals are 1-4 ATS on the road this season. The Ravens have won five straight, going 3-2 ATS. Edge: Over.

    Newsletter Tracking (through 11/24/2025)

    The records here will reflect the lines listed in the newsletters at the time the plays were published. This is for the rated plays, the high-ranking plays, and any type of play worth tracking. There’s no reason to keep track of every bottom-tier or “recommended” play; it’s not worth the work.

    Sometimes the newsletters will cheat a little by claiming a different common or later line if it turns a loss into a push or otherwise boosts their record. The writer will usually be able to note what happened to explain the discrepancy.

    He’ll also highlight particularly good or bad weekends or short-term runs. He will not include picks from newsletter issues that we don’t get in time.

    Starting to color-code the hottest and coldest records. Usually just anything hitting/missing around 70% or more with a reasonable sample.

    Note: If your line is anywhere from +5 1/2 to +7, I advise you buy the half point up on the Panthers, at +7 1/2 points you play it as it is.

    Monday Night Football’ betting: Sharp action moves 49ers-Panthers line​
    LV REVIEW JOURNAL SUBSCRIPTION

    The Panthers have won and covered their last three road games. But sharp bettors expect that streak to end on “Monday Night Football” against the 49ers.

    San Francisco is a consensus 7½-point home favorite over Carolina after the line opened at 6½.

    “The public and the sharp action is clearly on the 49ers,” Red Rock Resort sportsbook director Chuck Esposito said. “We’re going to be huge Panthers fans.”

    The line is 7 at Circa Sports and the consensus total is 49½.

    The Panthers are tied with the Buccaneers for first place in the NFC South division at 6-5.

    The Niners, on a 3-0 over run, are in third place in the NFC West at 7-4 behind the Rams (9-2) and Seahawks (8-3) and in contention for a wild-card playoff berth.

    “It’s a game the 49ers really need to win to hold on to a wild-card berth,” Westgate SuperBook oddsmaker Ed Salmons said.

    San Francisco has won and covered two of its last three games, beating the Cardinals 41-22 last week. Though Arizona out-gained the Niners, 488 yards to 281.

    “There’s nothing left on the 49ers’ defense. Every guy’s been hurt this year,” Salmons said. “The guys they have playing defense are essentially backup players and guys they can scrape together. It’s working because they’ve had a fairly easy schedule and their offense has been decent all year.”

    Brock Purdy is back at quarterback for the Niners and running back Christian McCaffrey has had a solid season entering this matchup against his former team in Carolina.

    Panthers quarterback Bryce Young threw for a career-high 448 yards and three touchdowns in last week’s 30-27 overtime win at Atlanta.

    Carolina has won and covered five of its last seven games, including away wins at Green Bay and the New York Jets.

    “We’re definitely going to need Carolina,” Westgate vice president of race and sports John Murray said. “There’s a lot of money line parlay and a lot of teaser action going to the favorite.”
