2019 NFL Week 17 Over/Under Betting Picks

Written by on December 28, 2019

For the teams still in the playoff picture and looking to land a home game in the postseason, there is only one game left to make it all happen. This coming weekend is the final game of the season for every team, and there are going to be a few who see their hopes of playing beyond the final week come to an end.

One thing to watch out for is that some start times have been changed by the NFL, so playoff seedings may already be decided by the time the late afternoon games kick off. That is something to keep in mind when you go to make your wagers this weekend. Let’s go ahead and make some Over/Under NFL Betting picks for the final week, with ATS and SU selections also coming your way today.

2019 NFL Week 17 Over/Under Betting Picks

LA Chargers vs Kansas City Chiefs (OVER 46 ½)

The Chargers may be seeing the end of an era this coming weekend, as it may be the last time that we see Phillip Rivers in a Chargers jersey. While one era is over in LA, you get the definite feeling that a big one is just about to begin in Kansas City, with Patrick Mahomes under center.

The Chiefs can book an opening round bye in the playoffs with a win here, so look for them to come out and set the tone early. While the Chiefs defense has been great over the past few weeks, they are going against an LA team that as seen 4 of their last 6 go OVER.

  • The total has gone OVER in 4 of LA Chargers’ last 5 games on the road
  • The total has gone UNDER in 6 of Kansas City’s last 6 games against an opponent in the AFC West division

New York Jets vs Buffalo Bills in NFL Week 17 (UNDER 37)

When you look at these two teams, you see a pair that are among the lowest scoring teams in the NFL. While they are separated by just 3 PPG, the Bills are in the playoffs already, while the Jets will once again be sitting out the postseason. Buffalo really have nothing to play for here, as they are destined for the #5 seed in the AFC regardless of what happens here.

That could make playing them SU a bit of a dodgy bet, but I think they will want to go into the playoffs on a positive note. I’m taking Buffalo to win in a low scoring affair.

  • The total has gone UNDER in 4 of NY Jets’ last 5 games against an opponent in the AFC conference
  • The total has gone UNDER in 6 of Buffalo’s last 8 games this season

New Orleans Saints vs Carolina Panthers (OVER 47 ½)

The New Orleans Saints have long since clinched the division and a spot in the playoffs, but they are still looking at landing one of the top two seeds in the NFC, which they can do with a win here.

The Saints are favorites for NFL Week 17 against the Panthers.

The Carolina Panthers are a team without a permanent head coach right now, as well as being in a position where a serious decision needs to be made at the QB spot. They have seen 4 of their last 5 games go over the point total, while the Saints have seen 4 of their last 6 go OVER.

  • The total has gone OVER in 4 of New Orleans’ last 6 games
  • The total has gone OVER in 5 of Carolina’s last 6 games against New Orleans

Pittsburgh Steelers vs Baltimore Ravens in NFL Week 17 (UNDER 40 ½)

Over the last 5 weeks of the season, the Steelers defense has not allowed an opponent to score more than 17 points in a single game. You might imagine that they would have a hard time maintaining that record against a high-powered Ravens offense, but there could well be a lot of second-string guys on the field for Baltimore on Sunday.

They have already clinched the #1 berth in the AFC, so why would they risk putting their starters out in a game that means nothing. Low-scoring game that goes UNDER here.

  • The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Pittsburgh’s last 5 games on the road
  • The total has gone OVER in 5 of Baltimore’s last 7 games against an opponent in the AFC North division
