NFL odds 2018, Week 14: Betting trends and analysis for the top games
The Houston Texans look to take another step towards a playoff spot Sunday hosting Indianapolis as one of the betting favorites on the NFL Week 14 odds at sportsbooks.

Houston is a 4.5-point home favorite on the NFL Week 14 odds at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com. Indianapolis had won each of its last five games before sputtering out in a disappointing 6-0 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars last Sunday. Currently sitting at 6-6 SU, the Colts would likely need to win out at this point to secure a playoff spot. Indianapolis is 4-1 SU and 4-0-1 ATS in its last five road games against the Texans.
The other two AFC South teams are also in action against each other this week as Tennessee (-4) hosts Jacksonville in the Thursday Night Football matchup. The other two primetime games are far more enticing as the Los Angeles Rams (-3) visit the Chicago Bears on Sunday Night Football and the Seattle Seahawks (-3.5) host the Minnesota Vikings on Monday Night Football.
The Baltimore Ravens currently hold the last AFC wild card spot with a record of 7-5 SU and 6-6 ATS over four teams sitting at 6-6 SU. The Ravens will have a tall task trying to hold on to that one-game lead this Sunday when they visit the Kansas City Chiefs as 6.5-point road underdogs.
Kansas City is the top team in the AFC at 10-2 SU and 8-3-1 ATS this season. Interestingly, the home team is just 1-7 SU and 2-6 ATS in the last eight games between these two teams per the OddsShark NFL Database.
The Philadelphia Eagles have kept their slim playoff hopes alive with back-to-back wins at home over the New York Giants and Washington Redskins to bring their record to 6-6 SU and 4-8 ATS. This Sunday, the Eagles will visit the NFC East leading Dallas Cowboys who are a perfect 4-0 SU and ATS over their last four games.
Dallas has the easier remaining schedule down the stretch, but would love to speed the process of locking the division up drastically with a win as 3.5-point home favorites in this one. Philadelphia is 4-1 SU in its last five road games at Dallas.
