It is Week 18 of the National Football League. Outside of Week 1, this week could be the craziest and most unpredictable to bet. There are several teams with something to play for, but another good handful of teams that have no immediate incentive, and will sit some of their starters in this game. We will do our best to give you our favorite Week 18 Straight Up Picks:
It’s time for Week 18 in the National Football League. While the odds could change all week, we have some straight up picks that we want to give to you early in the week to keep an eye on. Here are our NFL Week 18 Straight Up Picks:
NFL Week 18 SU Picks | MyBookie Regular Season Preview
2023-24 NFL | 104th season of the National Football League
NFL Week 18: Saturday, January 6th – Sunday, January 7th, 2024
Houston Texans over Indianapolis Colts
NFL Odds: Houston -115; Indianapolis -105
Saturday, January 6th, 2024 at 8:15 pm | CBS
Lucas Oil Stadium, Indianapolis, IN
A Saturday affair decides who gets into the postseason from the AFC South. The Colts came to Houston last time and beat the Texans. But, we like the it factor that CJ Stroud has brought to this Houston team. At this point, neither team is all that healthy. Both teams are fighting, scratching and clawing to get in. Look for the Texans to get the job done on the road and head into the postseason. Take Houston on Saturday.

New Orleans Saints over Atlanta Falcons
NFL Odds: New Orleans -170; Atlanta +145
Sunday, January 7th, 2024 at 1:00 pm | CBS
Caesars Superdome, New Orleans, LA
Atlanta looked horrific last week, and on the other side, the Saints looked great over Tampa Bay. The Saints could win this game over Atlanta, and see the Panthers beat the Buccaneers and win the NFC South. Look for the Saints to play another strong game, and make the Falcons beat them with their passing game. Limiting the run game seems to be a good plan against Atlanta. Take the Saints at home over the Falcons.

Detroit Lions over Minnesota Vikings
NFL Odds: Detroit -170; Minnesota +145
Sunday, January 7th, 2024 at 1:00 pm | FOX
Ford Field, Detroit, MI
The Lions are coming into this game angry. Detroit is angry about their Week 17 loss to the Cowboys. Now, they get a Minnesota team that seemingly is done for the season. The Lions beat them in Week 16, and the Lions are going to beat them again in Week 18. Detroit wins this game and puts Minnesota’s season to an end at 7-10. Take Detroit to beat the Vikings on Sunday!
NFL Week 18 SU Picks: Seattle Seahawks | Bet Lions over Vikings
MyBookie Betting Lines for the Game
Seattle Seahawks over Arizona Cardinals
NFL Odds: Arizona +115; Seattle -135
Sunday, January 7th, 2024 at 4:25 pm | FOX
State Farm Stadium, Glendale, AZ
What happened last week for Seattle? The Seahawks had the Steelers at home, and lost. Now, the Steelers need a win and some help to get into the postseason. The Cardinals have not quit though, and ruined the Eagles plans to win the NFC East. Arizona will battle again in this game, but in the end, the more talented team is the Seahawks. Take Seattle to beat the Cardinals on the road on Sunday.

Philadelphia Eagles over New York Giants
NFL Odds: New York +190; Philadelphia -240
Sunday, January 7th, 2024 at 4:25 pm | CBS
MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, NJ
The Eagles need to start playing better football. Jalen Hurts knows it, Nick Siriani knows it, all the Eagles know it. This is the same team that went to the Super Bowl a season ago. December is over, and the Eagles hope a new month brings some better play. The Eagles beat the Giants in Week 16, and they are going to do it again in Week 18. New York will finish their season with their 12th loss of the season.

Dallas Cowboys over Washington Commanders
NFL Odds: Dallas -900; Commanders +575
Sunday, January 7th, 2024 at 4:25 pm | FOX
FedExField, Landover, MD
Sadly it is going to be the last game for Ron Rivera as the head coach of the Washington Commanders. The Commanders struggled the second half of this season. They are going to finish the season with just 4 wins. Dallas knows they have to win this game, and despite their struggles on the road, they will get it done. Betting this game without a betting spread seems to be a good move. Dallas wins the game straight up on Sunday.
