NFL Week 15 NFC Games to Watch – Betting Odds, Previews, and Predictions

It’s week 15 in the NFL, and we’re back with another weekly column outlining three games to watch across the league this weekend.

As always, these odds, previews, and predictions are powered by our exclusive wagering partners at FanDuel Sportsbook. So head over there to make every moment more.

We’re breaking it up by conference again. Here are three NFC games to watch:

Odds – Buccaneers @ Packers

Spread: Packers -3.5

Moneyline: Packers -180/Buccaneers +152

Total: O/U 42.5

Storylines, Predictions, and Pick

The 6-7 Tampa Bay Buccaneers are headed to Green Bay this weekend to take on the 6-7 Packers.

After a roaring 3-1 start, Baker Mayfield and his Bucs came back to earth a little bit down the stretch of this season but, after winning two in a row, enter Sunday holding onto a share of the NFC South lead.

The Packers, meanwhile, were riding a three game win streak before dropping one in the final minute to Tommy DeVito’s Giants on Monday night.

Both squads are fighting for playoff spots and seeding in this one, which makes me immediately lean to the OVER 42.5. In general, I think Green Bay is a more well-rounded and better coached football team, so I’m taking the Pack laying the points.

Score: Packers 31 – Buccaneers 24

Side: Packers -3.5

Total: OVER 42.5

Odds – Falcons @ Panthers

Spread: Falcons -3

Moneyline: Falcons -164/Panthers +138

Total: O/U 33.5

Storylines, Predictions, and Pick

Sharing that NFC South lead with the Bucs is Arthur Smith’s Falcons.

Atlanta enters Sunday with a 6-7 record and having won two of their last three. They also have arguably the best triple threat of young talent on offense in RB Bijan Robinson, WR Drake London, and TE Kyle Pitts, but without sufficient QB okay from Drake London haven’t been able to come close to their full potential

This weekend, however, may be their best opportunity to do so against the lowly Panthers. At 1-12, Carolina has already fired their head coach this season and is looking well into the future instead of at the current season.

That’s why I’m taking Atlanta in this one. It just means more to them.

Score: Falcons 21 – Panthers 10

Side: Falcons -3

Total: UNDER 33.5

Odds – Eagles @ Seahawks

Spread: Eagles -3

Moneyline: Eagles -174/Seahawks +146

Total: O/U 47.5

Storylines, Predictions, and Pick

Heading to Monday Night Football, the game that got flexed in to replace Pats vs. Chiefs, we have the 6-7 Seahawks taking on the 10-3 Eagles.

After rattling off wins in 10 of their first 11, Philly has dropped their last two games with sub-par play from their offense. Jalen Hurts has looked like a shell of himself, and they’ve failed to get their run game going behind their lead back in D’Andre Swift.

As for the Seahawks, they’re just trying to keep their head above water in the daunting NFC playoff race that I mentioned above. They’ve lost four straight after a 6-3 start and are falling their way out of contention game by game.

I think Seattle keeps this one close, but ultimately Philly squeezes it out in the end.

Score: Eagles 24 – Seahawks 23

Side: Seahawks +3

Total: UNDER 47.5
