The calendar flips to December for NFL Week 14, which means the margin for error is extremely slim for those on the playoff bubble and others jockeying for postseason positioning.
The Dallas Cowboys have won three straight and can keep their season alive with a win over the flailing Detroit Lions on Thursday Night Football. While the Lions have looked wobbly of late, they do enter TNF as three-point favorites to kick off the week.
The AFC North is a tire fire that no one seems to want, but, barring a tie, someone will come away as the division leader after the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens clash on Sunday afternoon, with Lamar Jackson & Co. listed at -6.5.
The Monday Night Football game between the Los Angeles Chargers and Philadelphia Eagles should be a marquee matchup, but the Eagles have dropped two straight, while LAC quarterback Justin Herbert suffered a fracture in his non-throwing hand in Week 13. For now, L.A. is a three-point home underdog.
Here's a look at the opening NFL odds for Week 14 and early line moves.
