Monday’s Christmas Day games

Raiders at Chiefs

Time: Monday, 1 p.m. ET (CBS), stream on Paramount+ (click here
Open: Chiefs -10, O/U 42.5

Featured Game | Kansas City Chiefs vs. Las Vegas Raiders

“The Chiefs got back on track last week against the Patriots and now can push to get the top seed. They beat the Raiders earlier this year on the road, but the Raiders are a better defense now. The Chiefs win it, but it’s close.” — CBS Sports Senior NFL Analyst Pete Prisco on why the Chiefs will get past Las Vegas, but only by a field goal. To see all of his Week 16 picks, click here.

Giants at Eagles

Time: Monday, 4:30 p.m. ET (FOX), stream on fubo (try for free
Open: Eagles -10.5, O/U 43.5

Featured Game | Philadelphia Eagles vs. New York Giants

“I don’t care if Jalen Hurts needs a dictionary for the word “commitment,” this is a bounce-back spot for the Eagles. Life has been hard the past three weeks for Philadelphia, no doubt about it. But the Eagles are so much better than this Giants team. New York is 2-6 ATS on the road this season, and just 1-3 ATS as double-digit underdogs. The Eagles have been put on notice, and have a very winnable schedule down the stretch to secure the NFC East. At home, give me Philly to finally get right.” — CBS Sports NFL writer Jordan Dajani has Philadelphia rebounding with a big win over the Giants that clears the double-digit spread.

Ravens at 49ers 

Time: Monday, 8:15 p.m. ET (ABC, ESPN), stream on fubo (try for free)
Open: 49ers -5, O/U 45.5

Featured Game | San Francisco 49ers vs. Baltimore Ravens

“As fun as that battle should be, I feel like this game is going to come down to whether Baltimore can run the ball on the 49ers defense. The Ravens are averaging 163.8 yards per game on the ground this year, which ranks first in the NFL by MORE THAN 20 YARDS. That’s right no other team is even averaging 143 yards per game. The Ravens are 9-1 this season when they rush for at least 130 yards, but 1-2 when they don’t. When they’re able to move the ball on the ground, they play with a lot of confidence. However, I’m not so sure they’re going to be able to move the ball on the ground against a 49ers team that ranks third in the NFL in stopping the run this year.” — That’s just a small part of John Breech’s pick for this game; you can check out the rest of it and all of his picks here.

SportsLine NFL expert Mike Tierney is coming off a strong 2022 NFL season in which he went 68-54-6, returning $815 to $100 players. He is also an amazing 45-18-2 on his past 65 picks involving the Ravens, returning a whopping $2,510! Given that record, you’ll certainly want to see which way he is rolling for this tilt between the Ravens and 49ers. That’s particularly true considering Tierney has found a critical X-factor that has him backing one side of the spread. We can tell you he’s leaning Under the total, but to see his spread pick for this game you’ll have to go to SportsLine.
