“Bear Bets” are real wagers that Chris “The Bear” Fallica is actually making.
For those new to this space, if you are looking for some wagers to get in on the NFL action, I have you covered. Nothing makes football better than having a few bucks on the games weekly.
Last week, we finished 1-2, but we’re still up on the season. Let’s gain some momentum going into the playoffs.
Here are my best bets for this week’s slate.
(All times ET)
Last Week: 1-2 (Season: 33-26-3)
Houston Texans @ Indianapolis Colts (8:15 p.m. Jan. 6, ESPN)
This number has flipped. The Colts are the underdogs against C.J. Stroud in a game where the winner is in the NFL playoffs. Whoever wins this game could also potentially win the division if the Jaguars lose to the Titans on Sunday. However, I still like the Colts here.
Houston Texans
HOU
-1.0
-120
o47.5
Indianapolis Colts
IND
+1.0
-100
u47.5
Stroud has had the tendency to be able to pick apart Cover 3-type teams like the Colts. But at the same time, he is down some receivers. I think here at home, Indy will have a pretty good home-field advantage. I like the Colts, who’ve played well at home to get the win and move on to the playoffs.
As an aside, if you like the Colts — or the Texans, for that matter — maybe take a chance on either DeMeco Ryans or Shane Steichen to win Coach of the Year.
PICK: Colts (+1) to lose by fewer than 1 point (or win outright)
Denver Broncos @ Las Vegas Raiders (4:25 p.m. Jan. 7, FOX and FOX Sports App)
I know a lot of people love Las Vegas this week because they’re using the thought process that the Raiders have been outspoken…
