The San Francisco 49ers were among the Super Bowl favorites heading into the season, but they find themselves below the .500 mark heading into their matchup against Buffalo during the Week 13 NFL schedule. San Francisco is on a two-game losing skid following its 38-10 loss at Green Bay last week, and the 49ers are 7-point road underdogs for Sunday’s matchup in the Week 13 NFL odds. Buffalo has the second-best record in the AFC behind Kansas City, along with owning the head-to-head tiebreaker over the Chiefs. Should you back the Bills to win by at least one touchdown with your Week 13 NFL bets?
Other pivotal matchups this weekend include the Bengals (-2.5) vs. Steelers, Vikings (-3.5) vs. Cardinals, and Ravens (-3) vs. Eagles. The schedule concludes when the surging Broncos host the Browns as 5.5-point favorites on Monday Night Football.

Top Week 13 NFL expert picks from R.J. White
White is a Fantasy and gambling editor for CBS Sports, consistently crushing against-the-spread picks by going 643-543-34 on his ATS betting picks from 2017-23, which returned more than $4,600 to $100 players. He also went 101-84-4 (+1366) on all NFL spread picks last season. White is on another hot streak entering Week 13, going 21-10-1 in his last 32 NFL ATS picks.
He is backing the Bengals (-2.5, 48) to cover the spread against the Steelers in an AFC North battle. Cincinnati is coming off a critical bye week and is desperate to get back on track against a division rival. White thinks this line will move to 3, so he has already locked in his bet on the Bengals. He is also backing a road underdog against a team that is dealing with multiple key injuries. See the rest of White’s picks here.
Top Week 13 expert NFL picks from Larry Hartstein
A former lead writer for Covers and The Linemakers, Hartstein combines a vast network of Vegas sources with an analytical approach he honed working for Pro Football Focus. He tied for 52nd place (out of 1,598 entries) in the 2022 Westgate Las Vegas SuperContest, going 53-34-3 ATS. Hartstein’s weekly Vegas contest selections form the basis of his NFL best bets column, which is 79-48-2 (62.2%, +25.95 units) since its inception in 2022. Additionally, he is 74-41 in his last 115 NFL prop picks (+2434).
Hartstein is backing the Seahawks (-130) to beat the Jets on Sunday. He notes that the Seahawks have been shutting down opposing rushing attacks in recent weeks, which will make life difficult for Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Seattle has been excellent on the road this season, giving Hartstein multiple reasons to back the Seahawks against the struggling Jets. Hartstein is also backing another small favorite in a game where he thinks the line will move before kickoff. You can see Hartstein’s pick for that game and others here.

Top Week 13 NFL expert picks from Jeff Hochman
