NFL Best Bets

Dallas Cowboys @ Miami Dolphins

On paper, this looks to be the most exciting game of Sunday's slate. Both teams have exceptional offenses, and the total coming in sits at 50.5 - the highest of Week 16. While Dallas has played great this year, they've struggled on the road relative to their dominance at home. They've lost three of their past five road games, and their two wins in that stretch were a blowout over Carolina and a tight win over the Chargers. I think Miami will pull out a big home win on Sunday.

Raheem Mostert has been a dominant red zone threat, scoring a TD in eight of his last 10 games. Mostert should stay hot and score again on Sunday. I also think Dak Prescott will add two passing touchdowns. He had hit that mark in seven consecutive games before a dud last week, and he gets plenty of passing attempts in the red zone.

Parlay Odds: +390

Cleveland Cavaliers @ Chicago Bulls

The Cavaliers are coming off a disappointing 123-104 showing against the Pelicans, snapping a three-game win and cover streak. Cleveland is back on the road, where it has dropped three in a row while going 6-7 ATS in 13 games away from home this season. The Cavs swept the four-game series last season while going 3-0-1 ATS. However, it will be an uphill climb for the Cavs here, as Donovan Mitchell is out with an illness. He joins Darius Garland (jaw) and Evan Mobley (knee) on the shelf.

The Bulls have won three straight games, averaging 115.3 PPG in those three outings against the 76ers, Lakers and Spurs, while covering five in a row and 10 of the past 11 games overall. Chicago has pulled out of its offensive slumber lately, as it has scored nearly five more points across the past three than its 110.5 PPG regular-season average. Look for the Bulls to get the job done, especially since “Spida” is sidelined for the visitors.

Bets: Bulls -4 (-110)

Eastern Kentucky @ Alabama

The Colonels have had a tough go of it, losing five straight games against Division I opponents. Eastern Kentucky has also managed just a 1-7 ATS mark in eight games against Division I foes. The Colonels have lost three in a row by at least seven points, too, and the defense has allowed 72 or more points in 10 of 11 games this season. The Crimson Tide is averaging 90.5 PPG, fourth in the nation, shooting 47.6% from the field and 36.7% from behind the three-point line. The Crimson Tide will pile up the points on the poor Colonels, who won't offer much resistance.

The only hope for Eastern Kentucky is to keep forward Isaiah Cozart out of foul trouble. He leads the team with 15.4 PPG and 9.7 RPG, while posting a crazy 4.9 BPG this season. If he cannot stay on the court, heaven help EKU. The Colonels do not have anybody else remotely close to being able to match up with the SEC opponent.

Bet: Alabama -24.5 (-110)
