If you’re looking for some Week 10 NFL over/under picks, then you should know that three is a magic number! That’s right NFL gridiron gaming enthusiasts….thanks to the trio of expert Week 10 Over/Under picks that you’re about to get, you’re going to have a great opportunity to cash in three times. Okay, with that said, let’s get started.
Here’s A Closer Look At The Week 10 2016 NFL Over/Under Picks
Denver at New Orleans
When: 1:00 PM ET, Sunday, November 13, 2016
Where: Mercedes-Benz Superdome, New Orleans, Louisiana
Total: 48.5 Total Points
Analysis: Denver averages 23.8 points per game behind first-time starting quarterback Trevor Siemian while limiting the opposition to 18.4 points per contest defensively behind Pro Bowl linebacker Von Miller. Led by future Hall of Fame quarterback Drew Brees, the Saints average a stellar 30.2 points per game, despite giving up a whopping 29.8 points per game defensively.
While the New Orleans Saints score – and give up – a ton of points, for me, the Under is the right pick in this intriguing matchup. I’m fully expecting Denver’s stout defense to limit New Orleans to somewhere in the neighborhood of 24 points while the Broncos’ often uninspiring offense puts about 21 points on the board. The total has gone Under in four of Denver’s last six games and New Orleans has not surpassed the total in this contest in two of their last three games, which came against defense-first teams like the Broncos. It’s going to be close, but I like the Under.
Pick: Under 48.5 Total Points
Atlanta Falcons at Philadelphia Eagles
When: Sunday, November 13, 2016 at 1:00 PM ET
Where: Lincoln Financial Field
TV: FOX
Total: 50
Analysis: Matt Ryan and the Atlanta Falcons average a league-high 33.9 points per game, but need to improve a defense that is giving up a whopping 28.8 points per contest defensively. Rookie signal-caller Carson Wentz and the Philadelphia Eagles average a respectable 25.2 points per game while Philly’s defense has been rock-solid in limiting the opposition to just 18.1 points per game defensively.
Despite Philly’s defensive excellence this season, I believe the Over 50 Total points is the way to go. The Over is 4-1 in Philadelphia’s last five games and a perfect 4-0 in Atlanta’s last four contests. I’m expecting both teams to top the 25-point plateau in this affair, making the Over the easy pick here!
Pick: Over 50 Total Points
Green Bay at Tennessee
When: 1:00 PM ET, Sunday, November 13, 2016
Where: Nissan Stadium, Nashville, Tennessee
Total: 49.5
Analysis: Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers average 24.8 points per game while allowing 23.4 points per contest defensively. Marcus Mariota and the Tennessee Titans average a respectable 24.1 points per game but allow an overly generous 25.1 points per contest defensively.
Neither one of these teams has been able to stop their opponents consistently this season nor do I believe both will score their fair share of points in this matchup. The Over is a perfect 5-0 in Tennessee’s last five games and 4-1 in the last five meetings between these inter-conference rivals. I like the Packers to win a semi-shootout that plays Over the 50-point total.
Pick: Over 50 Total Points
