NFL Week 13 Spreads, Money Lines and Totals
Jerry Jones is a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. But Jones rocks the coveted Gold Jacket for his business acumen. Despite such an honor, the circumstances eat at Jones. That is because “Jerruh” prefers to be known as a football man instead of a businessman.
Since Jones bought the Dallas Cowboys in 1989, he has strived to win a Super Bowl as the boss of football operations. In the first five seasons of his ownership, Jones let Jimmy Johnson run the football operation while Jones took care of the business side. With Jones’s full support, Johnson led the Cowboys to Super Bowl championships in 1992 and 1993. But a clash of egos followed as Jones couldn’t take Johnson getting all the credit and glory. Jerruh wrote Johnson a farewell check and sent him packing.
Once Johnson departed, Jones could live his fantasy football dream of being the Cowboys football boss. Dallas won one more Super Bowl with caretaker stooge Barry Switzer as the head coach in 1995. It was their last championship. As Johnson’s players departed, the replacements weren’t nearly as good. And the discipline of Johnson’s teams departed the building with him.
Jones has had his share of teams in the NFL Playoffs. But none of his teams were good enough to win the Super Bowl. During his tenure, Dallas is perpetually hyped as the team to beat. And the casual sector bets them up into favored status. But it's all hat and no cattle. Dallas last made the NFC Championship in that 1995 Super Bowl campaign.
Dallas will open Week 13 with a Thursday Night Amazon Prime game against the Seattle Seahawks. Seattle was one of the great surprise teams of the 2022 season. The Seahawks traded Russell Wilson to the Denver Broncos and were written off for dead. Instead, the Seahawks made the 2022 NFL Playoffs while Denver held an empty bag with Wilson.

NBC Sunday Night Football has one of the best marquee matchups any sport could offer. The Kansas City Chiefs and Green Bay Packers are two of the NFL’s Legacy Franchises. And Lambeau Field is a sacred NFL Cathedral. The Packers will host the Chiefs, but gamblers wonder if Green Bay will be in playoff contention when this game starts.
When Jordan Love was drafted as the Green Bay QB of the future, the pick was widely praised. Love made his bones as the dynamic QB of the Utah State Aggies. But there is a big difference between Mountain West Conference football and the NFL. So too, is there no comparison between holding a clipboard as the backup QB and starting in the NFL.
ESPN Monday Night Football offers a potential AFC Playoff preview. Also, two of the best young quarterbacks in the NFL will go at it. The Jacksonville Jaguars will host the Cincinnati Bengals.
Trevor Lawrence and the Jags had a breakout campaign in 2022 that ended with a wild card playoff win and a berth in the AFC Divisional round. It was an astounding achievement for a franchise that has been among the worst in the NFL.
The Cincinnati Bengals were as bad as the Jaguars before Joe Burrow arrived. But Burrow has QBd the Bengals to a Super Bowl and the AFC Championship game in the past two seasons. Now the Bengals are one of the hottest properties on the board.
