WEEK 11 NFL PICKS FOR BET REGAL

Washington (-3.5) at Houston

The Commanders have won four of five to reach .500 after handing the Eagles their first loss of the season. It’s a tough spot for the Commandeers (5-5) against the Texans (1-7-1). Short week, back-to-back road games, coming off an emotional win against a divisional rival is a setup for a letdown.

UPSET SPECIAL: TEXANS, 20-19

Detroit at New York Giants (-3)

Saquon Barkley is facing the second-worst run defense so the Giants (7-2) can run it all day against the Lions (3-6).

BEST BET: GIANTS, 27-20

Carolina at Baltimore (-12.5)

Baker Mayfield is back under center for the Panthers (3-7). The Ravens (6-3) have won three in a row and coming off a bye.

RAVENS, 28-16

Cleveland vs Buffalo (-7.5) at Detroit

Josh Allen needs to stop turning the ball over in the red zone or the Bills (6-3) won’t live up to Super Bowl expectations.

BILLS, 30-17

Philadelphia (-6.5) at Indianapolis

The Eagles (8-1) weren’t going to go undefeated. The Colts (4-5-1) are undefeated under interim coach Jeff Saturday.

EAGLES, 26-20

New York Jets at New England (-3)

The Jets (6-3) bounced back from a home loss to the Patriots with a huge upset over the Bills before a bye. The Patriots (5-4) have won four of five.

PATRIOTS, 20-18

Los Angeles Rams at New Orleans (-2.5)

The Super Bowl hangover bit the Rams (3-6). The Saints 3-7) weren’t supposed to be this bad.

SAINTS, 23-20

Chicago at Atlanta (-3)

Justin Fields is showing dynamic playmaking ability for the Bears (3-7). The Falcons (4-6) are only one game out of first in a weak NFC South.

FALCONS, 24-19

Las Vegas at Denver (-3)

Two first-year coaches who’ve been major disappointments. The Raiders (2-7) are going for the season sweep against the Broncos (3-6).

BRONCOS, 23-17

Dallas (-2) at Minnesota

An 8-1 team coming off a road win against a Super Bowl favorite is somehow a home underdog. The Vikings are getting no respect from oddsmakers. This is the ultimate definition of the line dictating the pick.

COWBOYS, 27-24

Cincinnati (-3.5) at Pittsburgh

Which version of the Bengals (5-4) shows up? The Steelers (3-6) already beat them in Cincinnati in Week 1.

BENGALS, 28-16

Kansas City (-5.5) at Los Angeles Chargers

The injury-depleted Chargers (5-4) may be getting wideouts Mike Williams and Keenan Allen back. The Chiefs (7-2) have taken first place in the conference and don’t want to look back.

CHIEFS, 30-26

San Francisco -8) at Arizona in Mexico City

The Cardinals (4-6) have a better chance with “home” games outside Arizona considering their record at home under Kliff Kingsbury. The 49ers (5-4) have their sights set on first place.

49ERS, 24-22
