Tipico Sportsbook line: Vikings by 3
Robert Saleh’s Jets will look to maintain their Mike White magic after their backup QB impressed in a Week 12 win. For Minnesota, Justin Jefferson has emerged as perhaps the NFL’s top wide receiver and will be a tough matchup for the New York secondary.

Tipico Sportsbook line: Commanders by 2 1⁄2
After an incredible start to the season, the Brian Daboll-coached Giants, led by RB Saquon Barkley, are home underdogs in this NFC East showdown. Coach Ron Rivera has his Washington team believing, and all QB Taylor Heinecke does is win games.

Tipico Sportsbook line: Falcons by 1

The Arthur Smith-coached Falcons are very much alive in the NFC South, and a path toward the division crown will need to begin with a win over the rebuilding Steelers, who have performed below expectations all season though they just beat the Colts.

Tipico Sportsbook line: Lions by 1⁄2

TV: 1 p.m. ET Sunday, CBS
Tipico Sportsbook line: Ravens by 8

Tipico Sportsbook line: Browns by 7
Browns QB Deshaun Watson returned from his suspension Monday and is expected to make his first start against his former team, the Texans. He is an instant upgrade for the Cleveland offense and he faces a Houston defense that hasn’t been able to stop much.

TV: 4:25 p.m. ET Sunday, CBS
Tipico Sportsbook line: Even
