The Chiefs are out, ending a 10-year playoff run.
So is Patrick Mahomes, who suffered a season-ending ACL injury late in a 16-13 loss to the Chargers (+5.5).
And that wasn’t even the biggest injury of the day.
The still-contending Packers fear that star pass rusher Micah Parsons suffered a torn ACL in a 34-26 loss to the Broncos (+1.5). With the Bears up next, Green Bay also may have a hole on offense as WR Christian Watson was taken to a hospital with a chest injury. 👉Adam Burke‘s Week 16 Opening Lines report.
Favorites finished the day 9-5 straight up and 8-6 ATS. Overs led 8-6. 👉 Dave Tuley‘s season ATS stats.
Out of five double-digit dogs Sunday, only one covered. Philip Rivers and the Colts (+13) fell to Seattle 18-16 on Jason Myers’ field goal with 16 seconds left.
But we have one more Week 15 game . . .
Dolphins-Steelers Best Bets
The Dolphins (+3) must win tonight in Pittsburgh to remain alive (1%) in the AFC playoffs — and they still will need a lot of help.
The Steelers’ playoff probability is 62% if they win, 46% if they lose.
We have three opinions on this one:
I ran Makinen’s Analytics Report through ChatGPT. The recommendation: Under 42.5.
