The drama never stops in the .With three weeks left in the regular season, Tony Wolters Jersey 26 teams are still alive for playoff berths.That includes teams we didn't expect, like the , , and .Then there are the They might be the most dangerous team in the league, but they wouldn't even be in the playoffs if the season ended today.ADVERTISEMENT It's going to be a wild finish to the year, that's for sure.When looking at the Week 16 slate, I like a couple of early bets. Here are my three favorite wagers.All times ET SundayIndianapolis Colts @ Atlanta Falcons (1 p.m., FOX and FOX Sports App)I hate myself for this, but the Falcons are the play.Yes, Atlanta is coming off po sibly the worst lo s of the season, 9-7 to the in a rain-filled slop fest in Charlotte.Falcons coach Arthur Smith once again refused to use his best weapons on offense. However, the Falcons tend to play better on weekends following matchups in which they struggled on offense.The Colts are 8-6 and in a three-way tie atop the AFC South. That's a spot they were not expected to be in, especially after losing quarterback to injury.This tends to be a spot where a team like Indianapolis loses on the road. Also, the Colts' run defense is 27th in yards allowed per game, which plays into what Atlanta wants to do on offense.PICK Daniel Murphy Jersey : Falcons (+2.5) to lose by fewer than 2.5 points (or win outright)Bills snap Cowboys 5-game win streak, Micah Parsons calls lo s unacceptable RELATED: Dak Prescott's troubling betting trendDallas Cowboys @ Miami Dolphins (4:25 p.m., FOX and FOX Sports App)Both Ian Desmond Jersey teams are 10-4, and each has just a single win against a team with a .500 or better record.What happens when two teams who beat up on bad teams but struggle against good teams play each other? I think I have the answer.I'm taking the Cowboys in this game because of their performance on Sunday, even though Dallas went to Buffalo and got physically dominated. The Bills pushed around both lines just a week after the Cowboys did the same to the Eagles.Lo ses are not tolerated, but they are accepted if they happen when you've given your best effort. The most damning way to lose a game is being soft, and good teams often bounce back after a "soft" lo s. I expect the Cowboys to bounce back.Miami looked outstanding without , so I'm concerned about backing Dallas if Hill is back in the lineup. However, the Cowboys' pa s rush against the Dolphins' beat-up offensive line is where I think Dallas will have a huge advantage.I like the Cowboys.PICK: Cowboys (+1.5) to lose by fewer than 1.5 points (or win outright)New England Patriots @ Denver Broncos (8:15 p.m., NFL Network)The Daniel Castro Jersey total is low (34.5), and I'll gladly grab it now before Under bettors start to hammer it.The Patriots have trouble scoring. They needed a gift interception on a dropped pa s by 's to get to 17 points. Otherwise, it's po sible the Patriots would have ended that game with 10 points.New England averages 13.3 points per game, and the Patriots just aren't going on the road to score a bunch at Denver.On the other side are the Broncos, who score 21.7 points per game. Denver's offense has also struggled but has been helped over the last month with turnovers, leading to some easy points. New England's defense is still good and will confuse and hara s .This brings me to my bet. This game has 20-10 or 17-14 written all over it. Give me the Under.PICK: Under 34.5 points scored by both teams combinedGeoff Schwartz is an NFL analyst for FOX Sports.
