NFL Week 18 Parlay Picks Recap
When it came to NFL parlay picks this season, we were really consistent. It was either 2-2 with the parlays or 1-3 in most weeks. We did go 3-1 in Week 4 for a banner week, but we gave back that huge week by going winless in Week 5. It was another 1-3 week with the NFL parlay picks in Week 18. The strategy of going with four two-team NFL parlays has been a decent one this season. We have said in the past that if we can win just one of our four parlays each week, we’ll almost break even, and when we hit more than one parlay, we’ll do well because two-team NFL parlays pay out at 2.6-1. We’ll be happy if we can hit half of our NFL parlays on a weekly basis, and we have done that a few times already this season. Let’s recap NFL parlays for Week 18.
NFL Week 18 Underdogs Parlay Recap
The underdog parlay was a loser, as the Vikings played poorly in a loss to Detroit on Monday night. The first half of the parlay did win with Dallas covering the spread, but it was all for naught as the Vikings were outplayed and outcoached by the Lions.
NFL Week 18 Favorites Parlay Recap
The favorites parlay was a winner yet again. Somewhat surprisingly, the favorites parlay has been one of the best ones this season. We had the Broncos over the Chiefs, and they completely dominated Kansas City, winning 38-0. The other half of the parlay was also a winner with the Seahawks winning by five points, and when we released the parlay, the line was four. Hopefully, you got in early, as I know the Seahawks ended up about a TD favorite.
NFL Week 18 Line Moves Parlay Recap
The line moves parlay was a loser even though Houston won against Tennessee. The Titans were simply pathetic this season and the worst team against the spread in recent NFL history. The other half of the parlay didn’t come through, as the Bills lost at New England.
NFL Week 18 Go Against the Public Parlay Recap
This parlay definitely had a chance, but the Giants played poorly and lost to Philadelphia’s second string. The Giants should have been able to win this one, but when you have Drew Lock as your starting quarterback, you know you are in trouble. The other half of the parlay was a winner with the Jets winning outright against Miami.
NFL Week 18 Parlay Picks
The NFL regular season comes to a close this week, and NFL Week 18 parlay picks are ready to roll with four two-team parlays. It was a 1-3 week with the NFL parlays last week, and that meant a slight losing week. The strategy of going with four two-team NFL parlays has been a decent one this season. We have said in the past that if we can win just one of our four parlays each week, we’ll almost break even, and when we hit more than one parlay, we’ll do well because two-team NFL parlays pay out at 2.6-1. We’ll be happy if we can hit half of our NFL parlays on a weekly basis, and we have done that a few times already this season. Here are NFL Week 18 parlay picks.

The Jets have been a disaster this season, and the public wants nothing to do with them. The public is backing the Dolphins in this game, so we go against the public and take the Jets.
