While we still have a few weeks remaining in the NFL regular season, I think it’s fair to suggest that the finish line is now very much in view.
This is the time when teams make that final playoff push in hopes of playing beyond the end of the regular season, but the harsh reality is that they will not all make it.
NFL Betting Analysis in the Week 13
With that in mind, we are doing something a little different with our game previews this week. Besides looking at the trends and making game predictions, we will also be looking at the path to the playoffs for the teams we discuss here.
We are getting things started with a huge game that sees the Philadelphia Eagles head to Baltimore to face the Ravens in a matchup that has massive playoff implications.
The Ravens are favored by 3 points, with the total set at 51.
^Philadelphia Eagles Odds +127
There were a lot of people calling for changes at the start of the season, with the Eagles getting out to a mediocre start, going 2-2 through the opening month of the season.
There are not a lot of complaints in Philly now, though, as the Eagles have reeled off 7 straight wins to take control of the NFC East.
Besides leading their division, Philly is also still in the hunt to take the #1 seed in the conference, although the Lions will have something to say about that.
The Eagles have won 5 of 6 on the road this season, and while they are 5-1 ATS in their last 6, they have failed to cover in 7 straight games in December. Their remaining schedule after this one is:
- Vs Panthers
- Vs Steelers
- @ Commanders
- Vs Cowboys
- Vs Giants

You would like them to win at least 3 of those remaining 5 games, with the trip to Washington the one that could decide the division. Either way, this team is headed to the playoffs.
^Baltimore Ravens Odds -157
You look at how the Ravens played in their Monday night game against the LA Chargers, and you see a team that has to be considered a favorite to win the Super Bowl.
Their prime time win helped them keep pace with the Steelers at the top of the AFC North, although they did lose to Pittsburgh a couple of weeks back and have them on their schedule again before the end of the season, which we will get to in a moment.
The Ravens have now won 8 of their last 10 games and are a perfect 5-0 SU in their last 5 home games in the month of December.
In terms of the point total, the OVER has hit in 4 of their last 5 games at home. Here is how their remaining schedule looks:
- @Giants
- Vs Steelers
- @Texans
- Vs Browns

That matchup with the Steelers looms large, as that is a team that they have had some real issues with during the Lamar Jackson era. That one could well prove to be an AFC North decider.

This is arguably the best matchup on the schedule this week, and while the Ravens have home field advantage, I am a little concerned about them playing on a short week.
I am leaning toward the Eagles in a close one.
Philadelphia Eagles 23, Baltimore Ravens 21
