NFL Week 14 odds, picks: Bears cover vs. 49ers after coaching change, Dolphins keep slim playoff hopes alive

All we needed was some turkey and gravy to get us back on track. Starting on the Thanksgiving triple-header and rolling into Monday’s clash between the Browns and Broncos, I enjoyed my best betting week in quite some time, wrapping up an 11-5 ATS record for the slate overall, tied for the best among our CBS Sports experts. That includes being the only CBS Sports expert to correctly take the Philadelphia Eagles both straight up and against the spread in Baltimore against the Ravens.

I went 2-3 ATS in my five locks of the week to keep us hovering at .500 on the season. I’ll look to get that aligned with last week’s overall strong performance as we now pivot to Week 14.

In that stretch, he’s 4-0, has a passer rating of 148.7 and has thrown 11 touchdowns with zero interceptions. The Lions are also averaging 42.3 points per game. Goff is also 6-2 against the Packers in his career, so it’s a favorable matchup on top of the home-field advantage. Green Bay has also struggled to play within the number in divisional games this season and has yet to record a cover against an NFC North opponent (0-3…
