We have arrived at Week 14 of the 2022 NFL campaign, and with the regular season winding down it would be a good time to take your football betting to Prophet Exchange.
If you are not familiar with sports betting exchanges, you might want to take a look at this guide to betting with Prophet Exchange in addition to exchange betting terminology before diving in and making your wagers. As the name suggests, a sports betting exchange is a platform for exchanging bets from one bettor to another without the need for a bookmaker to set the odds for each outcome. Users can either set their own odds and hope another user will be willing to take the bet, or they can peruse the market to see what odds other users are willing to make and jump on one of those offers.
For example, this Sunday the Buccaneers are +155 underdogs against the 49ers (-180) at most sportsbooks. At those ‘books you can only bet on those 2 teams at those 2 prices. With a sports betting exchange, however, that’s not the case. You could try to get the Buccaneers +190 and if someone is willing to take your offer and grab the Patriots at -190 then a match is made.
One especially important aspect of Prophet Exchange that must be noted is against the spread odds are all available at +100 odds as opposed to the -110 juice you generally encounter at most sportsbooks. That is because in an exchange you are betting against other bettors instead of against the sportsbook; and afterwards, Prophet Exchange takes a commission from the winnings. Needless to say, making a wager at +100 instead of -110 is a huge advantage – especially adding it up over time.
With that, let’s take a look at some best bets for NFL Week 14 that can be made at Prophet Exchange.
Baltimore Ravens +2.5 (+100) over Pittsburgh Steelers
The market completely flipped on Baltimore following last week’s injury sustained by Lamar Jackson. The lookahead line was Ravens -4 in this game, but it reopened as a pick’ em on Sunday and has since moved toward the Steelers as small favorites. Even if Tyler Huntley is under center for the Ravens, that line movement still creates an opportunity. Huntley just led a game-winning 91-yard drive in the final minutes against the Broncos on Sunday, going 8-for-8 and scoring the go-ahead touchdown with 28 seconds remaining. He was serviceable in 5 starts of the 2021 season in relief of an injured Jackson, as well, so he has plenty of experience. Baltimore should be the choice against a mediocre-at-best Pittsburgh squad.

Kansas City Chiefs -9.5 (+100) over Denver Broncos
Despite the fact that both of these teams lost on Sunday, the Chiefs are far more trustworthy than the Broncos — to say the least. These are 2 teams heading in completely opposite directions and it couldn’t be more apparent on the field. Denver is saddled with 1 of the worst offenses in football by any standard or advanced metric you look at, ranking dead last in scoring offense at just 13.7 points per game. Russell Wilson has tossed only 8 touchdown passes through 12 games. Kansas City, on the other hand, is a well-oiled machine for the most part. Facing the Broncos is never any exception, either. Patrick Mahomes is a perfect 9-0 in his career in this H2H matchup and he should improve to 10-0 with ease on Sunday.

Miami Dolphins -3 (+100) over Los Angeles Chargers
The Dolphins took a rare L at San Francisco last week, but they are still 8-4 and 2 games ahead of the Chargers in the AFC wild-card standings. There is no shame in losing to the 49ers — especially on the road — and Miami had previously been on a 5-game winning streak, so there is no reason to panic. L.A.’s defense stinks and Miami’s offense, which features Tua Tagovailoa, Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, is obviously prolific. This doesn’t seem like a favorable matchup at all for the Bolts, who have dropped 3 of their last 4 and are coming off a bad loss to Las Vegas. When you only have to give a field goal with a far superior team, it’s a chance that should be taken.
