    Analysis

    Extremely fair price on the Jets after reigning Vezina winner Connor Hellebuyck returned from injury over the weekend and dominated in a win over Washington. Third different city since Thursday for Ottawa, which is down three injured regulars in forwards in Lars Eller and Shane Pinto and blueliner Thomas Chabot. The Jets swept this series last season pretty easily.

    Picked: Dec 15 @ 8:31am

    Analysis

    Jakob Poeltl is averaging four fewer minutes per game than he did last season. Still, he has averaged 10.2 points and 8.0 rebounds. The Heat have a lot of size in Bam Adebayo and Kel’el Ware, so the Raptors might need Poeltl to play more in this matchup. He faced the Heat three times last season and combined for at least 20 points and rebounds in each of them. The Heat have played at the fastest pace and allowed the second-most rebounds per game in the league, so this over is appealing.

    Picked: Dec 9 @ 4:17pm

    Analysis

    We'll see if De'Von Achane is able to play, but early indication is that his injury is minor. Whoever the Dolphins roll out at RB could be in for a monster game, as the Steelers have been gashed for 466 rushing yards the last two weeks. Miami has 160+ rushing yards in four straight, even with Achane leaving early last week, so Miami's path to offensive success is clear. The Dolphins defense has allowed 17 points or less in four straight, and the Steelers offense isn't exactly firing on all cylinders down the stretch. This is one that should be 3 at best, so I'll take the hook.

    Picked: Dec 11 @ 10:39am

    Analysis

    This is already ticking up and if De'Von Achane is ruled out for Miami, it surely will land north of -200. So let's take it now. Achane has been a huge reason the Fins have won four straight, rushing for at least 160 yards as a team in each. Will the Steelers really blow their huge Week 14 win in Baltimore for control of the AFC North by giving this one away? Miami has lost 13 straight games with game-time temperatures under 40 degrees and also 13 in a row on the road vs. teams entering with winning records. Both are the longest active losing streaks in the NFL.

    Spread
    Picked: Dec 11 @ 3:48pm

    Analysis

    The Dolphins are 5-1 in their last 6 games, and have found their offensive identity behind a successful rush attack. The Steelers have been getting gashed on the ground in recent weeks, allowing 249 rushing yards to the Bills and 217 to the Ravens. Miami have also quietly been playing much better defense, now ranking 8th in defensive rush DVOA. Pittsburgh will probably be a popular pick coming off their upset win over the Ravens, but this feels like a let down spot. I like the Dolphins to keep it within a FG.
