Semana 16 da NFL: Los Angeles Chargers vs. Denver Broncos

A direct showdown for the Los Angeles Chargers (8-6). A loss could put their postseason hopes on thin ice. They’ve suffered two consecutive losses and three in their last four games. Additionally, they’ve allowed 30 or more points for the second time this season after being crushed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 17-40. That total points conceded came in less than a month, raising concerns about their defense.

The Denver Broncos (9-5) are just one win ahead of the Chargers, and a victory would secure their playoff spot. They’ve had an excellent month, winning their last four games with authority, with the nine-point difference against the Cleveland Browns two weeks ago being their narrowest margin. Rookie quarterback Bo Nix has been impressive in the second half of the season, recently throwing three touchdowns in his last game.

Chargers vs. Broncos Betting Pick: Broncos

Semana 16 da NFL: Baltimore Ravens x Pittsburgh Steelers

This could be a decisive game for the Baltimore Ravens (9-5). They are just one game behind the Pittsburgh Steelers in the race for the AFC North lead, so a loss would push them into the wild card battle. They’re coming off a dominant 14-35 road win against the New York Giants, with a stellar performance by Lamar Jackson, who completed 21 of 25 passes for 290 yards and an impressive five touchdown passes.

Meanwhile, the Pittsburgh Steelers (10-4) fell to the Philadelphia Eagles by 27-13, marking their second loss in the last four games. However, they defeated the Ravens just a few weeks ago with an 18-6 win. While they haven’t yet proven to be a championship-caliber team, the addition of Russell Wilson to the starting lineup has brought noticeable improvement.

Ravens vs. Steelers Betting Pick: Ravens

Semana 16 da NFL: Washington Commanders x Filadélfia Eagles

The Washington Commanders (9-5) are one of the teams that will be battling until the very last day. They currently hold the seventh spot in the NFC, with only a one-game lead over the Seattle Seahawks, meaning a loss could be disastrous. They’ve won two consecutive games, including a narrow 19-20 victory over the New Orleans Saints, where the home team opted for a two-point conversion on the final play instead of settling for the extra point, and couldn’t do it. Rookie Jayden Daniels is in excellent form, throwing seven touchdown passes over his last three games.

The Philadelphia Eagles (12-2) are aiming for a direct ticket to the Divisional Round. They are tied for the top spot in the NFC with the Detroit Lions, so while they’ve already secured a playoff berth, there’s no room for complacency. They’re coming off a 27-13 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, extending their winning streak to ten games. Although they’ve been known for their dominant ground game, Jalen Hurts shined through the air in their last game, completing 25 of 32 passes for 290 yards and two touchdowns.

Commanders vs. Eagles Betting Pick: Eagles

Semana 16 da NFL: Seattle Seahawks vs. Minnesota Vikings

The Seattle Seahawks (8-6) lost the game they couldn’t afford to lose. It was a 13-30 home defeat against the Green Bay Packers (10-4). Not only did they surrender the NFC West lead to the Los Angeles Rams (8-6), but they also lost ground in the race for one of the three NFC wild card spots. Had they won, both teams, along with the Commanders, would have been tied at 9-5. Now, the Seahawks find themselves on the outside looking in, and Geno Smith sustained an injury.

The Minnesota Vikings are having a great season but are unlucky to be in a highly competitive NFC North. Despite their 12-2 record, they’re not the leaders—those are the Detroit Lions, who share the same record but hold the head-to-head tiebreaker. Behind them are the Green Bay Packers (10-4). The Vikings are coming off a 30-12 victory over the Chicago Bears, extending their winning streak to seven games.
