Miami Dolphins at Kansas City Chiefs, 8 p.m., Peacock
The weather is going to be a factor here - expected to be under ten degrees F at kickoff. Dolphins’ quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has said he won’t wear a glove for the game. How that will impact his throwing is anyone’s guess, but if it is impacted, that takes Tyreek Hill out of the equation.

Sunday's NFL Lineup
Pittsburgh Steelers at Buffalo Bills, 1 p.m., CBS
Keep an eye on the weather conditions for this one, as well, reflected in the lower Over/Under. Buffalo has a winter weather advisory in effect. They’re expecting snow, a mix of rain, 3 degrees F, gusty winds. That’s going to make it hell for the quarterbacks, even a QB with a cannon arm like Buffalo’s Josh Allen.
At theScore Bet:
- Moneyline Bills 1.20, Steelers 4.80;
- Spread Bills -10 (1.95), Steelers +10 (1.87);

- Allen Rushing Attempts Over 8.5 (1.77).

- and Harris Over 15.5 rushing attempts (1.71),
- Allen Over 8.5 Rushing Attempts (1.77),
- Bills’ running back James Cook Under 15.5 Rushing Attempts (1.83) are most bet player props.
- Allen is most bet to score a TD (tickets) at BetMGM, followed by Cook.
Green Bay Packers at Dallas Cowboys, 4:30 p.m., FOX
This one feels like a Packers win. Green Bay won three straight heading into the playoffs. QB Jordan Love is the real deal: 4,159 yards passing, seventh in the league, and 32 TDs (second in the NFL). Cowboys’ QB Dak Prescott had an MVP-level season: first in TDs (36), third in yards passing (4,516), second in QBR (second).
At DraftKings:
- Moneyline Packers 3.60, Cowboys 1.31;
- Spread Packers +7 (1.93), Cowboys -7 (1.89);
- O/U 50.5 (O 1.89, U 1.93).
Most bet player props for this one so far:
According to DraftKings, Cowboys’ receiver CeeDee Lamb First TD Scorer (5.50).
Los Angeles Rams at Detroit Lions, 8 p.m., NBC
The Lions are on a roll of sorts, winning their last three games to take the NFC North. Lions’ QB Jared Goff was second in the NFL with 4,575 yards in passing, and 30 TDs (4th in the league). But don’t sleep on the Rams – seven wins in their last eight games. QB Matthew Stafford – traded to the Rams from the Lions, for Goff – was 11th in league passing (3,965 yards).
At BetMGM:
- Moneyline Rams 2.40, Lions 1.60;
- Spread Rams +3 (1.95), Lions -3 (1.87);
- O/U 51.5 (O 1.91, U 1.91).

At BetMGM, it’s Goff Over 33.5 Passing Attempts (1.67).
Monday's NFL Lineup
Philadelphia Eagles at Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 8:15 p.m., ESPN
The game with arguably the greatest intrigue. Not many people would have predicted the large-sized speed bumps that have impeded the Eagles over the last six weeks of the season, going 1-5, including losses to teams like the New York Giants and the Arizona Cardinals. And that was after a Week 12 overtime win over the Bills – a game they could have very well have lost.
At BetMGM:
- Moneyline Eagles 1.62, Bucs 2.35;
- Spread Eagles -3 (1.91), Bucs +3 (1.91);
- O/U 43.5 (O 1.91, U 1.91).
Most bet player props for this one so far:

- At BetMGM, Otton Over 21.5 Receiving Yards (1.74) is a popular player prop.
- And at FanDuel, it’s Bucs QB Baker Mayfield Over 8.5 Yards Rushing (1.82) leading the way.
