We already covered how prolific the AFC North is these days. And we’ll keep this same energy as three of the four decent teams have favorable matchups yet again. Baltimore and Cincinnati should squash their overmatched opponents as the NFL odds expect while Pittsburgh could one-up Philadelphia in this Pennsylvanian matchup. Bet these three matchups in different ways. But bet on the AFC North.
NFL Week 15 Expert Picks: Bet These 3 AFC North Games
1. Ravens vs Giants Over 43.5
The Ravens got a much-needed rest and should go back to their explosive ways. After hard-fought tilts against the Pennsylvanian teams, Baltimore faces a moribund Giants team. And while New York has a decent rushing defense, we can’t see it neutralizing Baltimore. But we’re not laying 14.5 points. Instead, let’s bet online on the over.

The Giants have a hard time scoring (15.3 points per game) but Baltimore will make up for that. Like Cincinnati, the Ravens score a lot but also give up a lot. The average total in Ravens games is around 53 points, which is why 10 of their 13 games this season have gone over the totals. We don’t see this one bucking the trend.
Baltimore may encounter resistance with the Giants’ front line. But the Ravens should continue to score inside the 20. The Ravens are the NFL’s best red-zone offense scoring on 75% of their tries. The Giants are okay here but still allow 53.8% of tries to convert into a TD. That’s not good enough. So the sound NFL game prediction here is over 43 points.
Bet This Pick: Ravens, Giants Over 43.5
2. Cincinnati Bengals ATS -5
The Bengals kept their playoff hopes alive by edging the Cowboys. They get to keep the momentum by smoking the Titans. We’re thankful Cincinnati’s line didn’t shorten too much following its win since we cannot, in good conscience, bet the Titans. Tennessee just lost to Jacksonville despite outplaying it for the most part.
The Titans also failed to score a touchdown. Its six points are the 10th time they have been held under 20 points this season. And while the Titans have given up the second-fewest yards, they are poor at stopping teams when it matters. Tennessee is ranked last in fourth-down conversion rate (80%) and 27th in red-zone TD rate (65.1%).
This is problematic against Cincinnati’s red-hot offense. Joe Burrow would be the MVP frontrunner if the Bengals had a better record. And while we can’t trust the defense, we don’t have to worry about Tennessee posing much of a scoring threat. Cincy is an easy NFL prediction today to win and cover.
Bet This Pick: Cincinnati Bengals -5

3. Pittsburgh Steelers ATS +4.5
Russell Wilson keeps cooking and the Steelers keep winning. They face their toughest test in Philadelphia where Pittsburgh has not won in 10 straight tries. The last time the Steelers won was back in 1966. But Wilson is also 5-0 against Philadelphia in his career. What’s the result? We like the Steelers to cover five points at BetUS Sportsbook.
Russell Wilson is BACK!!
6-1 record.
28.4 points per game.
12 TD

Wilson makes the Steelers a legitimate Super Bowl contender. The last time we could say this was during Ben Roethlisberger’s heyday. More notably, the Steelers have been on a roll having covered seven of their last eight games. They are 3-0 against the spread (ATS) as a road underdog this season.
Philadelphia has also been on fire with nine straight wins. But the Eagles’ strength, which is its running game, is something Pittsburgh can neutralize. The Steelers give up the sixth-fewest rushing yards (91.5 per game) and lead the NFL in takeaways (2.2 per game). They’ll force Philly to pass and keep this game razor-thin. Bet the Steelers.
Bet This Pick: Pittsburgh Steelers +4.5
