BlueBet previews the NFL Week 17<\/strong> action below. Read on for our best bets per game and an overview of the feature games this week.<\/p>\n


\n

Carolina Panthers at Atlanta Falcons<\/h3>\n

Date:<\/strong> Monday 8:25 am. Venue:<\/strong> Atlanta
\nOdds:<\/strong> Falcons $1.50, Panthers $2.68<\/a><\/p>\n

The Falcons host the Panthers on Monday at Atlanta. We’ll provide a betting preview of the game below.<\/p>\n

Form Guide:<\/h3>\n

After losing to the Saints last week, the Falcons must win this one against the Panthers or their season could be over. The Falcons are 4-3 at home this season and will need to find their offence again as they were held to 13 points against the Saints.<\/p>\n

Carolina are looking to upset the Falcons playoff chances and improve their NFC playoff potential on Monday. They\u2019ve won three straight games and have an 11-4 record.<\/p>\n

Head to Head Record:<\/h3>\n

In the first meeting of the season, the Panthers defeated the Falcons 20-17. They lead the head to head 6-4 in the last 10 meetings. But Atlanta has won the last two at home against them.<\/p>\n

Point Spread:<\/h3>\n

The Falcons are the favourites in the point spread but the Panthers are a good chance at the line. They\u2019re 7-2 ATS on the road and have the defence to stop Matt Ryan. The Falcons are 7-2 ATS at home against the Panthers but their offence is struggling compared to previous seasons. So the Panthers is the best bet at +4.5.
\nBest bet:
Panthers +4.5 ($1.85)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Total Points:<\/h3>\n

The under total points has a great trend in this matchup and we\u2019ll be backing it. The Falcons are 4-1 against the under in their last 5 games and 5-1 against the under at home. They also have a 5-2 record against the under when the Panthers come to Atlanta.
\nBest bet:
Under 46.5 points ($1.78)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Tip:<\/h3>\n

Falcons WIN ($1.50)<\/a><\/strong>
\nDespite a 22-19 win last week, the Panthers were not overly impressive. While for the Falcons, they should win this considering it means they\u2019ll make the playoffs. It\u2019s also in Atlanta and they\u2019ll likely use the home crowd to their advantage.<\/p>\n


\n

Jacksonville Jaguars at Tennessee Titans<\/h3>\n

Date:<\/strong> Monday 8:25 am. Venue:<\/strong> Nashville
\nOdds:<\/strong>
Titans $1.50, Jaguars $2.68<\/a><\/p>\n

The Titans host the Jaguars on Monday at Nashville. We’ll provide a betting preview of the game below.<\/p>\n

Form Guide:<\/h3>\n

The Titans are on the verge of playoffs, but they\u2019ll need to beat the Jaguars in Week 17. They have lost three games in a row, but they were all close so this should be another close one.<\/p>\n

The Jaguars have won the AFC South but they were poor against the 49ers last week. Their defence allowed 44 points against the 49ers and will need to improve versus the Titans.<\/p>\n

Head to Head Record:<\/h3>\n

In the last five years, the Titans just lead the head to head 6-4. They also won the first meeting this season in Jacksonville 37-16.<\/p>\n

Point Spread:<\/h3>\n

The Titans are heavily favoured in the point spread at around 6 points. But they\u2019re just 3-9-2 ATS when playing the Jaguars. They\u2019re also 2-4-1 ATS at home against them. The Jaguars have covered the line in 7 of their last 10 games and we\u2019ll forgive their defence from last week to cover the line.
\nBest bet:
Jaguars +6.5 ($1.92)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Total Points:<\/h3>\n

These two sides love high scoring games when they face each other. The over total is 5-1 when the Jaguars head to Nashville. The Titans also scored 37 points in the last meeting against them and have a 5-1 record against the over at home.
\nBest bet:
Over total points ($TBA)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Tip:<\/h3>\n

Titans HT\/FT ($1.80)<\/a><\/strong>
\nWith a playoff spot on the line, the Titans at home is the best bet.<\/p>\n


\n

Arizona Cardinals at Seattle Seahawks<\/h3>\n

Date:<\/strong> Monday 8:25 am. Venue:<\/strong> Seattle
\nOdds:<\/strong>
Seahawks $1.26, Cardinals $4.10<\/a><\/p>\n

The Seahawks host the Cardinals on Monday at Seattle. We’ll provide a betting preview of the game below.<\/p>\n

Form Guide:<\/h3>\n

Arizona are 7-8 and will be looking for an upset. They thrashed the Giants last week and earned a shutout. But they need to show improvement on the road (2-5).<\/p>\n

The Seahawks kept their playoff hopes alive with a 21-12 win over the Cowboys last week. But they\u2019ll need to hope the Falcons lose and would clinch a playoff spot if they beat the Cardinals.<\/p>\n

Head to Head Record:<\/h3>\n

The Seahawks are 6-3-1 against the Cardinals since 2012. But the Cardinals won the last meeting in Seattle 34-31.<\/p>\n

Point Spread:<\/h3>\n

With home field advantage, the Seahawks are heavily favoured in the point spread. But they have covered the line in just 1 of their last 5 home games. The Cardinals aren\u2019t much better with a 1-6 ATS record on the road. However, they have the defence to worry the Seahawks and can cover the line.
\nBest bet:
Cardinals +8 ($1.92)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Total Points:<\/h3>\n

The Cardinals are 10-4 against the under and we\u2019re expecting a close game here. The under is also 6-3 when the Seahawks are the home side. They were held to 7 points in their last home game so we\u2019ll take the under.
\nBest bet:
Under 38.5 points ($1.91)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Tip:<\/h3>\n

Seahawks HT\/FT ($1.57)<\/a><\/strong>
\nWith a playoff spot on the line, the Seahawks are the best bet at home over the Cardinals.<\/p>\n
