There were six teams favored by at least one touchdown in Week 11, but the Week 12 NFL spreads only list one larger than four points on Sunday. Kansas City is a nine-point favorite at Las Vegas, while every other game is expected to be a nailbiter. One of the premier games on the Week 12 NFL schedule features the Eagles (-3.5) vs. Bills, as Buffalo tries to avoid falling back to the .500 mark overall this season. Which side of that game should you target with your Week 12 NFL parlay picks and NFL bets?
Minnesota is hoping to bounce back from a last-minute loss to Denver when it hosts Chicago on Monday Night Football in another primetime game. The Vikings are playing under journeyman quarterback Joshua Dobbs and are 3.5-point favorites in the Week 12 NFL odds.

Top Week 12 NFL picks
After simulating every game 10,000 times, the model is high on the Pittsburgh Steelers (-1) to cover on the road against the Cincinnati Bengals. Cincinnati is 10-2 in its last 12 home games, but will not have star quarterback Joe Burrow for the remainder of the season. The Bengals have not been able to move the ball consistently this season and it will be difficult for them to correct those issues without their starting quarterback.
This is not an ideal first matchup for backup quarterback Jake Browning, who is tasked with facing a Steelers defense that ranks seventh in the NFL in scoring. Pittsburgh has covered the spread in 10 of its last 14 games and it is 16-4 in its last 20 trips to Cincinnati. SportsLine's model is expecting another successful trip to Paycor Stadium for the Steelers, who are covering the spread in almost 60% of simulations. See which other NFL parlay picks to make here.
