NFL favorites have a losing record against the spread this season, but NFL road favorites have covered the spread 58.3% of the time through the first three weeks. There are five road favorites on the NFL schedule for Week 4 this Sunday, including the Chiefs (-8) vs. Chargers and the Bengals (-4.5) vs. Panthers. Kansas City has covered the spread in eight of its last nine games dating back to last season and has won all nine of those games. The Chiefs have also won nine straight road games against the Chargers, who are 1-5 in their last six home games, but which side of the NFL odds should you bet on?
Using trends is a popular way to nail down the best NFL bets for Week 4, but there’s a small sample size to choose from this season, and relying too heavily on these trends when making your Week 4 NFL score predictions can be dangerous, so before making any Week 4 NFL picks, you should check out the NFL Spread, Over/Under and Money Line projections from the self-learning SportsLine AI.
Built by SportsLine’s data science team using cutting-edge artificial intelligence and machine learning technology, AI predictions and AI ratings are generated for each game. AI predictions are determined by statistically learning from historical data for each team and quantitatively rating the strength of the opponent’s defense by assigning it a numerical value out of 100, called a Matchup Score.
Once a prediction is formulated, an AI rating is generated using the prediction, match score and market odds. For example, if a team has a weak defense, the prediction differs from the line and the odds are in your favour, you may see an A rating on an over bet.
Plus, SportsLine AI is SportsLine’s first fully automated prediction model, which is continually updated with the latest available data to help you find the biggest discrepancies in lines. Last season, SportsLine’s AI PickBot hit 1,674 4.5- and 5-star prop picks, a difference that anyone who’s used the tool can attest to.
For Week 4 NFL betting, AI PickBot has evaluated the NFL odds and provided NFL betting predictions for all 16 games. Here you can see only the AI predictions for Week 4 NFL schedule.
Top NFL AI picks for Week 4
AI PickBot projects the Jaguars to cover as 6.5-point road underdogs against the Texans after analyzing all of the games in Week 4. Jaguars running back Travis Etienne has improved every game this season, rushing for 44 yards in Week 1, 52 yards in Week 2, and 68 yards in Week 3. He has rushed for 70 or more yards in three of the last four games against the Texans and has recorded at least 30 receiving yards in all of those games.
He led Jacksonville to a road win at Houston last season, and the Texans were blown out by 34 points to the Vikings last week. Minnesota running back Aaron Jones ran for over 100 yards in that game, so Etienne should be a big performer. Jacksonville’s ability to run the ball on Sunday should allow them to control the tempo. That’s one reason why AI PickBot has the Jaguars as an A-rated pick. See more Week 4 football predictions and football picks at SportsLine.
