Betting on Week 17 games

With Week 17 matches coming up, it is the last chance for betting on the Regular Season games, but then we move onto the single elimination stage of the Playoffs, and finally the Super Bowl. Some teams, like the New England Patriots, Carolina Panthers, and Arizona Cardinals already have their Playoff spots secured, but there are plenty of others that are right on the line and could use one last victory.

The match-ups that should be on everyone’s list include:

Seahawks at Cardinals

With the Cardinals moving into first place during this week’s Power Rankings, as they have gone on to win nine consecutive games so far, and will be looking to make history by winning their 10th. The Cardinals are being favored with a point spread of (-7) against the Seahawks. This will actually be a great match, as the Seahawks have a good defense and rush game, but it may not be enough as the Cardinals have an outstanding team in all areas, defense and offense; having the best offense in the league.

Pick: Cardinals (-7)

Vikings at Packers

Two teams that could definitely use this last regular season game to ensure their Playoff spot are the Vikings and Packers, each with a 10-5 record. The sportsbooks are giving the Packers the slight advantage, (-3 ½), but this would be the perfect time for the underdog to strike. This is a tough match to pick a winner, but the Packers have been able to hold their own in the past, and may do so again.

Pick: Packers (-3 ½)

Buccaneers at Panthers

Last week the Panthers lost, giving them a 14-1 record, and they may end the season with a 14-2 record as they face the Buccaneers; who have shown vast improvement from their lackluster performances at the start of the season. They did go on a three-game losing streak, but they are the perfect team to play against the Panthers. Both teams have similar strengths in their defense and rushing, and the Panthers may be thinking of the Playoffs, rather than the last game of the regular season.

Pick: Buccaneers (+11)

There are plenty of other great match-ups this week that are perfect for betting on, so take a look at the Week 17 schedule and pick your favorite teams to win, or simply beat the spread.
