This is David with TonysPicks.com, here with a two-team NFL parlay for Sunday, November 17, 2024.
Detroit Lions vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
The first NFL game we’re looking at is my hometown Detroit Lions hosting the Jacksonville Jaguars. Detroit, of course, is coming off that crazy comeback last week in Houston. Goff threw five interceptions, and they played a horrible first half, but they held Houston off the scoreboard in the second half to get the big win on a couple of long field goals late in the game.
I’m going to take Detroit to bounce back here with a much better effort. I’m going to lay the 13.5 points—they’re currently favored by that margin. Goff has been one of the most accurate quarterbacks all season long. I know he threw five picks last week, but I expect him to get right back on track here. We know this Detroit offense is one of the top units in the NFL.
This Jacksonville team is not very good, in my opinion. We just saw them really struggle to stop Minnesota last week. I know the final score was only 12-7, but Minnesota put up just under 500 total yards compared to under 200 for Jacksonville. I don’t think the Jaguars are going to have much success in the red zone against this Detroit offense, and frankly, I think Detroit’s offense is much better than Minnesota’s.
The Jaguars, as I said, have struggled. Last week, they’re dealing with some injury issues, and I think the Lions are going to pour it on here because they need to bounce back after that poor performance. So, give me Detroit -13.5.
Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Baltimore Ravens
The second game we’re looking at is the AFC North rivalry game between the Steelers and the Ravens. Pittsburgh is currently a three-point underdog, and I’m going to take the three points here with Pittsburgh.
Baltimore’s defense this season has been atrocious pretty much all year long. Last week, they played Cincinnati in that thrilling game. I know Cincinnati has a bunch of explosive players, but if you look at this whole season—with the exception of a couple of games, like Denver, where they played alright—the defense has really struggled.
On the other side, Pittsburgh’s defense is solid. They’re on a four-game winning streak. The teams they’ve beaten haven’t been the best, but they did defeat the Commanders last time out. We’ll see how good of a win that actually is because Washington looks like they’ve regressed a little bit, but it’s still a nice win.
The offense is rolling, and I think they’re going to find success here against this Baltimore defense. I know Baltimore will get their points—they have one of the best offenses in the NFL—but I trust Pittsburgh’s defense to make one or two more plays than Baltimore. So, I’ll take the points here with the Steelers.
