It’s the final week of the regular season in the National Football League. Week 17 has arrived. Let’s take a look at some of the top NFL betting predictions for Week 17:

NFL Week 17 Top Betting Picks

Carolina Panthers +6 over Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a very small chance of making the postseason. And by very small chance, like almost impossible. But, if one team wants to make sure that chance is gone, it is the defending divisional champion Carolina Panthers. The Panthers are still talented, and would like to salvage the end of their season with a win. The Buccaneers have struggled as of late, losing two games in a row. Look for the Carolina Panthers to not only cover the +6 spread, but also win the game outright.

Chicago Bears +5.5 over Minnesota Vikings

The Chicago Bears are ready to close up shop on an awful 2016 season. The Bears have won just three games this season. Surprisingly, one of those wins was over the Minnesota Vikings, at home. This time, the Bears are going to keep this game competitive. Minnesota is a walking mess right now. While Minnesota is going to finish with the win in this game, it’s hard to imagine that they will cover the spread. In Minneapolis, the Chicago Bears +5.5 is the way to bet in this game.

New York Giants +8 over Washington Redskins

Two divisional rivals with a bunch to play for. Sure, the New York Giants are heading to the postseason already, but they want to finish strong. The Giants are coming off a loss, and would like to seal their spot as the 5th seed in the NFC. Washington needs a win to have any chance at the postseason. While Washington uses Kirk Cousins late to win this game, the spread for this game is too many points. The final bet in this game is the New York Giants +8 over the Washington Redskins.

Green Bay Packers -3.5 over Detroit Lions

The NFC North is on the line. The Green Bay Packers and the Detroit Lions will get together. The first time these two teams met, the Packers won at home. The Detroit Lions have dropped two straight games, while the Packers have won 5 in a row. Green Bay seems red-hot right now, and they should be in good shape here. The Lions offense has sputtered back and forth for a couple games now. Look for the Green Bay Packers to win this game with ease. The final bet for this game is the Green Bay Packers – 3.5 over the Detroit Lions on Sunday Night Football. There is a look at some of the top bets in the National Football League for Week 17. Best of luck and enjoy the games!
