NFL Week 16 Saturday Football Predictions:

Texans Vs Chiefs Pick: Points At A Premium

Kansas City covered on Sunday in Cleveland though Patrick Mahomes suffered an ankle injury, so might be a doubt for Week 16.          

If he does play, the 13-1 Chiefs may have to help their quarterback, who has bailed them out on plenty of occasions. 

Kansas City must also rely on its defense a little more than usual against a Texans team that caused four turnovers and only gave up 12 points against Miami last week. 

The Chiefs have had issues in the red zone and, although ranking 26th in red-zone offense, their red-zone defense has improved to 12th in the NFL. 

The problem with Houston is that teams have figured them out and Miami limited the Texans to just 181 net yards.

However, defensively, Houston kept the Dolphins to 172 net passing yards despite throwing the ball 40 times. 

This lends to the potential for the Under and The Panel likes the Texans and Chiefs to score few points on Saturday.

The Panel Pick 1: Under 40.5 Points - 11/10 With Betway

Steelers Vs Ravens Prediction: Pittsburgh To Go Low

Lamar Jackson and the Ravens are one game behind Pittsburgh for the top spot in the AFC North, though both teams should make the playoffs. 

The Ravens have played better defensively over the past four games and opponents have struggled to gain more than 300 yards.

This is in stark contrast to a month-long stretch during which Baltimore allowed 400+ yards. 

Pittsburgh and Baltimore played something of a defensive stalemate in their first meeting which the Steelers won 18-16 and the Under for the game total is 44.5 with NFL betting sites. 

However, if you believe that Baltimore will get revenge, then there are some options, including the under on total Pittsburgh points.

The Panel Pick 2: Steelers Under 18.5 Points - 10/11 With Betway
