CRAZY NFL PARLAY: WEEK 13
Summary
This Thanksgiving weekend, the focus is on a high-reward NFL parlay bet. The strategy involves combining several moneyline picks and game totals for a potential massive payout from a small wager. The suggested selections include the Texans, Browns, Steelers, and Giants to win, along with specific over/under predictions for games like Jaguars at Titans, Rams at Panthers, Saints at Dolphins, Falcons at Jets, and Vikings at Seahawks.
The reasoning for these picks includes the Texans’ upward trajectory, the Rams exploiting the Panthers’ depleted defense, and the Dolphins playing for playoff chances. Upset potential hinges on performances from players like Cleveland’s Myles Garrett harassing the 49ers’ quarterback, a strong game from the Steelers, and a standout showing from the Giants’ Jameis Winston. A successful $10 bet on this entire parlay could return over $22,000.
You know what I’m thankful for this Thanksgiving weekend? The Crazy NFL Parlay. The moment where we take the price of a couple of solid pre-made dinner sides like mac and cheese and potato salad and turn it into a 2026 Chevrolet Trailblazer.
If this is your first glance at the Crazy NFL Parlay, then this is truly a day of thanks for you. Because this isn’t just slapping a bunch of plus moneylines together and praying for rain. Oh no. The universe’s natural state is chaos, and the NFL lives by it, touting the mantra of “Any Given Sunday.” So, how about if that Sunday gives us five new figures for our bank accounts?
Here’s what I have thankfully brought you this holiday weekend;
Texans +177
Jaguars at Titans Over 41.5 (-110)
Rams at Panthers Over 44.5 (-110)
Saints at Dolphins Over 41.5 (-105)
Falcons at Jets Under 39.5 (-110)
Browns +195
Vikings at Seahawks Over 41 (-110)
Steelers +161
Giants +303
If you’ve read my Friday Afternoon Quarterback column, and you should, it’s entertaining and informative, then you know I like all these totals and one of these moneylines with no prompting.
I feel like the Houston Texans will continue their upward trajectory and expose the Indianapolis Colts. I like the Jacksonville Jaguars to score enough against the Tennessee Titans to make sure that the over is hit. The Carolina Panthers’ defensive backfield is depleted, and the Los Angeles Rams should be good for 34 points on their own in that 44.5. The Miami Dolphins are no longer just playing for pride but have an outside chance at the playoffs and should put it to the New Orleans Saints, and could score 40 all on their own.
While Kirk Cousins seems to be OK for the Atlanta Falcons, there’s a good chance the New York Jets won’t hit double digits, so that under looks safe to me. And, finally, the Seattle Seahawks could hit 41 all alone against the Minnesota Vikings, starting a rookie quarterback.
It’s the other three games we need to talk ourselves into, so let’s get to it.
Can you see Myles Garrett of the Cleveland Browns sacking and harassing Brock Purdy of the San Francisco 49ers so much that he tosses three more picks and gets the upset in the early slot in Cleveland?
Aaron Rodgers and his Ivermectin-powered wrist could show up in a big way for the Pittsburgh Steelers against a Buffalo Bills team that has lost games like this all season.
And, at last, Jameis Winston could give us all the Thanksgiving capper we want with a tour de force performance under the lights for the New York Giants against the New England Patriots.
A $10 winning parlay bet on these moneylines and totals pays $22,272.46
