Los Angeles Times

Record against the spread: 10-5. Season: 103-84-5.

Broncos (4-8) at Panthers (4-8)

1 p.m. Sunday | 3½ | O/U45½

The Broncos are putting the pieces in place to be a high-powered offense … just not this season. The Panthers still are well coached. Panthers 28, Broncos 21

Texans (4-8) at Bears (5-7)

1 p.m. Sunday | Texans by 1½ | O/U 45½

The Bears blow a 10-point lead at home to the banged-up Lions? Time for a total reboot. The Texans are the better team. Prediction: Texans 23, Bears 21

Titans (8-4) atJaguars (1-11)

1 p.m. Sunday | Titans by 7½ | O/U 52½

After losing a shootout to the Browns, the Titans bounce back with a familiar recipe: giving the ball to Derrick Henry.

Titans 31,Jaguars 24

Chiefs (11-1) at Dolphins (8-4)

1 p.m. Sunday | Chiefs by 7 | O/U 50½

The Chiefs have struggled to score a little bit, and they’re going against a really tough Dolphins defense. Still, the Chiefs pull away. Prediction: Chiefs 28, Dolphins 20

Cowboys (3-9) at Bengals (2-9-1)

1 p.m. Sunday | Cowboys by 3 | O/U43

The Cowboys should win pretty handily. The Bengals can do a decent job of moving the ball at times.

Cowboys 30,Bengals 20

Cardinals (6-6) at Giants (5-7)

1 p.m. Sunday | Cardinals by 2½ | O/U 45½

This is a tough matchup for the Cardinals. The Seahawks put a blueprint for blitzing Kyler Murray on tape a few weeks ago.

Giants 21, Cardinals 16

Vikings (6-6) at Buccaneers (7-5)

1 p.m. Sunday | Buccaneers by 6½ | O/U 52½ After a week off, the Bucs have had a chance to self-scout and recalibrate. They’ll get job done against the increasingly solid Vikings.

Buccaneers 28,Vikings 24

Colts (8-4) at Raiders (7-5)

4:05 p.m. Sunday | Colts by 3 | O/U 51½

Whenhealthy, the Raiders are so-so on defense at best — and they’re not healthy. Philip Rivers should pick them apart.

Colts 34, Raiders 20

Jets (0-12) at Seahawks (8-4)

4:05 p.m. Sunday | Seahawks by 14½| O/U 47

The Seahawks are a better team, but not by as much as some people think. This game could be interesting for a while.

Seahawks 28,Jets 20

Packers (9-3) at Lions (5-7)

4:25 p.m. Sunday | Packers by 8½ | O/U 55

The Packers have won four of five, and are regularly putting up at least 30 points. They should be able to do that vs. the Lions. Packers 38, Lions 24

Falcons (4-8) at Chargers (3-9)

4:25 p.m. Sunday | Falcons by 1 | O/U 49 The Chargers are playing for pride. They do have pride, and a bunch of good players. That should be enough vs. the Falcons defense.

Chargers 28, Falcons 27

Saints (10-2) at Eagles (3-8-1)

4:25 p.m. Sunday | Saints by 7½ | O/U42½

Jalen Hurts replaces Carson Wentz, which should make this interesting, yet the Eagles’ problems don’t start and end with Wentz. Saints 31, Eagles 23

Washington (5-7) at 49ers (5-7)

4:25 p.m. Sunday | 49ers by 3 | O/U43½

Alex Smith returns to San Francisco fresh off a stunning upset of the Steelers.

Steelers (11-1) at Bills (9-3)

8:20 p.m. Sunday | Bills by 2 | O/U 48½

Bills 30, Steelers 24

Ravens (7-5) at Browns (9-3)

8:15 p.m. Monday | Ravens by 2½ | O/U 47

The Ravens blew out the Browns in Week 1, but these teams are markedly different now. The Browns strike back in this one. Browns 28,Ravens 24
