Vikings (+3) over RAIDERS: The Vikings have now delivered in consecutive weeks as part of the “Steele Trap” following their OT win over the Rams last Sunday. They are now on a seven-game cover streak and head to Oakland getting a field goal against a Raiders’ defense that was victimized for a franchise-worst 597 yards a week ago against the Steelers.

Jaguars (+5 ½) over RAVENS: The Jaguars blew numerous chances a week ago against the Jets thanks in part to a 4-0 turnover deficit, which included three giveaways in the fourth quarter to ruin a 436-290 yardage edge. They now take on a Ravens squad that got into the win column for just the second time in 2015 against the reeling Chargers prior to their bye. With a 1-9-1 recent mark against the spread and a four-point average margin in games played by Baltimore, I feel pretty comfortable leaning with the road underdog here.

Last week (NFL): 1-1

Season: 12-6
