It should be an exciting weekend in the NFL as half of the 14 games on Sunday and Monday have point spreads of a field goal or lower, and we offer our best NFL player props and best bets for Week 14 based on the best NFL odds.
After the Thursday night game between the New England Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers kicked off with an O/U of 30 points, three other games this weekend have projected totals of 37 points or fewer. The lower totals around the league are a combination of colder weather and the fact that as many as nine backup quarterbacks could make starts for their respective teams this weekend.
To go along with our Week 14 NFL predictions, here are our NFL player props, best bets, and NFL picks for Week 14 (odds via our best NFL betting sites; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

- Matthew Stafford Under 31.5 passing attempts vs. Ravens (-105 via BetMGM, DraftKings, bet365) ????

NFL player props for Week 14
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford threw the ball all over the field through the first five games, with 33-plus pass attempts in each. However, he has had fewer than 33 attempts in four of six games since, as the Rams have been leaning more on the running game lately as Kyren Williams has 545 rushing yards in the last five games.
When he ha s a clean pocket this season, Stafford has produced a 74 QBR, completed 67% of his passes, and averaged 8.0 yards per attempt. However, when pressured, Stafford's QBR drops to 13 (the -61 differential is the second-largest decline in the NFL), ranks 22nd, completes just 36% of his passes, and averages 4.7 yards per attempt. This is significant since the Baltimore Ravens are pressuring quarterbacks on 33% of dropbacks (seventh-highest). In addition, there is a 100% chance of rain in Baltimore on Sunday with wind gusts of 15-plus mph, so we look for the Rams to lean on the run more than usual.
FanDuel has the Under of 31.5 attempts juiced to -122, so we are getting a great price at BetMGM, DraftKings, or bet365 in comparison.

Dak Prescott still has generous plus-money odds to throw three or more touchdowns despite doing so in five of the previous six games. Prescott ranks first in QBR, first in passing touchdowns, and fourth in passing yards per game. He gets a great matchup against an Eagles defense that ranks last in QBR, 31st in passing touchdowns, and 29th in passing yards per game.
The Eagles have had a subpar pass rush this season, pressuring quarterbacks on 26% of dropbacks (29th). Meanwhile, Prescott has an NFL-best 81 Total QBR since Week 6 (and is the only quarterback above 69 in that span).
The Dallas offense has had more than just CeeDee Lamb stepping up, especially Brandin Cooks, whose 20 receptions for 332 yards and three touchdowns over the last four games is more than he had through Weeks 1-9 combined.
DraftKings is on the low end with +150 odds for Prescott to throw three or more touchdown passes, so use our bet365 bonus code, SBRBONUS, to get the best value.
NFL game picks for Week 14
Indianapolis Colts quarterback Gardner Minshew is 4-0 SU and ATS as a road favorite, but we are bucking that trend and expect their longest winning streak since 2018 (four games) to end this weekend.
The Colts are 4-1 on the road this season, but all of those games were either played early in the season or in warmer climates. We expect the elements in Cincinnati (70% chance of rain, wind gusts of 11-plus mph) to favor the Bengals against a dome team, and they are facing a Colts defense that ranks in the bottom three in rushing success rate and who has allowed the third-most rushing touchdowns this season.
Meanwhile, Bengals quarterback Jake Browning became the first in franchise history with 350 passing yards and an 85% completion percentage in a game in their win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 13. After the first quarter, Browning averaged 5.1 air yards, was 7 -for-7 on throws 10-plus air yards, and averaged 10.7 yards per attempt. Browning has been off target on one of 63 passes in the last two games, and he should be used to playing in the rain, having played his college ball at the University of Washington.

We backed the Carolina Panthers as 5.5-point underdogs against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week and are doing so in another road matchup against a division rival this week.
The New Orleans Saints are 0-5 ATS at home this season for the first time since 1980 and have covered just five of 20 home games since 2021, the worst mark in the NFL. The Saints beat the Panthers 20-17 in Week 2, but that was also rookie Bryce Young's second professional start, and Carolina averaged 5.3 yards per carry but did not have the volume with just 19 attempts. Meanwhile, New Orleans allowed four sack s in that game, and whoever starts at quarterback (Derek Carr is questionable with a concussion and shoulder and rib injuries) will be under duress, as the Saints rank 31st in pass block win rate. In addition, The Saints ranked 30th or worse in DVOA over the previous five weeks entering Week 13, and their pass rush ranks dead-last for the entire season.
This is a four-star play, as Saints head coach Dennis Allen has covered just 24% of the games in which his team has been favored (5-16-1 ATS), while Carolina is 8-7-1 ATS against New Orleans since 2016 and has covered five of the eight games played at the Superdome in that span.
We do not mind paying the slight extra juice at FanDuel and BetMGM, as those are the only two shops offering higher than +5.
