Back at it for another week of NFL action with only two weeks remaining in the regular season!

Week 16 saw home teams dominate as they went 13-3 SU and 12-4 ATS. Road teams still hold a slight edge for the season though, as they've covered 51.9% of spreads. Home favorites were particularly strong last week, going 8-1 ATS, with the Bills being the only one that didn't cover.

If the Week 17 spreads are any indication, we could be in for a competitive week. Twelve of the 16 games have spreads inside of seven points. A couple of shootouts could be on the way with four totals flirting with 50.

Here's a condensed version of our NFL betting trends report with my favorite trend for every game this week. Best of luck with all your bets and Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to you and your family!
