One of the best matchups in Week 15 of the NFL sees Aaron Rodgers and the NFC North-leading Packers visit Lamar Jackson and the AFC North-leading Baltimore Ravens.
But while both the Packers and Ravens are sitting atop their respective divisions, these teams don’t feel like they’re on the same level right now. And that’s probably why the Cheese Heads are favored by 5.5-points on the road for this matchup.

Germany will host its first-ever regular season NFL game on Sunday, as the Seattle Seahawks and Tampa Bay Buccaneers head to Munich for Week 10 action. Seattle comes to Allianz Arena riding high, sitting 6-3 atop the NFC West, while Tampa gave itself a lifeline a week ago with a Tom Brady game-winning drive.
Between these two teams, Germany will see a strong cast of talented skill-position players. For our NFL player props, however, we’re going to shine a light on a pair of scrappy tight ends and a once-written-off passer.
We’ll get into it all below with our Seattle vs. Tampa Bay NFL prop picks, and be sure to check out our Seahawks vs. Buccaneers picks and predictions for more.

If you want to make a name as a new head coach, win games. If you want to make a name as a new head coach in Las Vegas, cover the spread.
Antonio Pierce did just that after taking over coaching duties for the Las Vegas Raiders midway through last season, energizing the Silver and Black to a 5-4 SU finish and, more importantly, a 7-1-1 ATS record in those closing nine games.
Pierce was hired full-time and that ATS success could continue if he can keep Las Vegas playing above the oddsmakers’ expectations, which are pretty low for 2024. The Raiders are underdogs in 15 of 17 regular season games and have a win total of 6.5 (Over -130).
There’s a ton of talent on this roster, just not where it matters most: quarterback. Neither Aiden O’Conn…
How much time does love buy you? That Manchester United fans want Ole Gunnar Solskjær to succeed is understandable. It’s not just that he scored vital goals, it’s that he embodied a golden age. Who would not want a returning hero to restore the club to glory? But wishful thinking will not organise a midfield.
The win will part the clouds a little. Solskjær has survived another mini-crisis, but each one leaves him slightly weaker. And this one comes with Cristiano Ronaldo. It may not be fair, given Ronaldo is 36 and, for all his goalscoring ability, increasingly an anachronism, but his signing has increased the pressure on the manager.

Frank Lampard insists he still loves being at Chelsea and is relishing the challenge of turning the club’s fortunes around, despite losing all five of his games in charge since returning to Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea were booed off at half-time during last week’s 2-0 home defeat to Brentford, which extended their winless run in all competitions to eight matches. The Blues sit six points adrift of the Premier League’s top 10 and visit title-chasing London rivals Arsenal on Tuesday.

Asked if he still relished coming into work, Lampard said: “Absolutely. My eyes were open when I came into this job. I’m too experienced …
Some people are fans of the New England Patriots. But many, many more people are NOT fans of the New England Patriots. This 2017 Deadspin NFL team preview is for those in the latter group. Read all the previews so far here. Your team: The Richard Spencer Blues Explosion. Your 2016 record: 14-2. Super Bowl champions. MAGA. Your coach: Football Steve Bannon. “And there were no days off!” Indeed, with that one battle cry, the masses did cheer and then resume their jobs at the munitions factory, wherein they labored day and night all for the GLORIES OF THE STATE. I’m gonna be perfectly honest: I’m still stunned by the Trump letter. It’s not simply that Belichick wrote it, but also the content of the letter itself: Congratulations on a tremendous campaign. You have…
It's no surprise that the year's number one miler Jenny Simpson wasted a quality field in today's Fifth Avenue Mile, earning her third overall title. But the real shocker came in the men's race, where Jordan McNamara of the Oregon Track Club Elite made a late surge for the win.
Simpson needed no tactics—this year, she's just that much better. Taking the lead from the gun, she ran wire to wire for the win in 4 minutes, 19.4 seconds LIKE A BOSS.
The men's race wasn't so easy. The pack broke open early, chiefly because of a $1000 bonus for the first runner to cross the half-mile mark. Facial hair model Will Leer out-leaned Lawi Lalang for the midpoint prize as the rest of the pack sat back and watched. That early surge would cost Leer and La…
