As has become tradition, the Week 18 NFL schedule features only divisional matchups, with many carrying postseason implications. Several teams who’ve yet to lock up playoff berths face win-and-in scenarios in which they can clinch their respective divisions such as Jacksonville, Tampa and Buffalo. Jaguars vs. Titans has the Jags as 3.5-point road favorites in the latest Week 18 NFL odds, and Jacksonville has won the last three matchups. Meanwhile, Buccaneers vs. Panthers (+5.5) will see Tampa Bay going for an eighth cover against Carolina in their last 11 meetings.
On Sunday night, Bills vs. Dolphins (+3) is pivotal for Buffalo as it could be as high as the No. 2 AFC seed or it could miss out on the postseason entirely. The Bills have won 11 of the last 12 matchups, and their 28-point victory earlier this year will surely make them appealing in Week 18 NFL bets.
