The NFL playoff picture comes further into focus with each passing week and the Week 17 NFL schedule should provide more definitive answers on who will be in the postseason and who won’t. The Philadelphia Eagles had a chance to clinch the NFC East against the Washington Commanders last week but couldn’t get the job done. Now, they’ll have another chance to clinch with a win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. The latest Week 17 NFL odds list the Eagles as 9.5-point favorites, while the Commanders are four-point favorites to clinch an NFC Wild Card spot against the NFC South-leading Falcons, who will likely roll Michael Penix Jr. out for his second career start.
Who should you back in that game and how should you handle all your NFL money line, NFL over-under and NFL against the spread spread picks? Before you make any Week 17 NFL picks and Week 17 NFL score predictions, you need to see the NFL against the spread, NFL over-under, and NFL money line predictions powered by the self-learning SportsLine AI.
Built using cutting-edge artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques by SportsLine’s Data Science team, AI Predictions and AI Ratings are generated for each game. The AI predictions are determined by statistically learning from each team’s historical data and then quantitatively evaluating the strength of the opponent’s defense by assigning a numeric value out of 100 called a matchup score.
Once a prediction is formulated, the AI rating is generated using the prediction, the matchup score, and the odds of the market. For example, you could see an A-rating on an over bet if a team is facing a poor defense, their prediction differs from the line and there are favorable odds.
In addition, SportsLine AI is the first fully automated predictive model at SportsLine. It continuously refreshes on the most recent available data and can help you spot the biggest discrepancies in the lines.

Top Week 17 NFL AI picks
After analyzing every game in Week 17, the AI PickBot says the Browns cover comfortably as 6.5-point home underdogs against the Dolphins on Sunday. Miami kept slim playoff hopes alive with a win over the 49ers last week but no longer has control of its own fate in the AFC playoff picture.
Oddly enough, it’s been the Miami offense that has struggled this season. The Dolphins ranked second in the NFL in scoring and first in total offense last season, but enter Week 17 ranked 23rd in scoring and 18th in total offense in 2024. Meanwhile, the Cleveland defense has actually been playing decently the last few weeks despite having to paper over the fact that the offense has turned the ball over at least three times in five straight games.
The Browns are only allowing 301.3 yards per game over the last three weeks and Myles Garrett has eight sacks over his last seven games. That’s a big reason why the AI PickBot rates a Browns cover as an A+ pick and also predicts a 27-22 outright win on average.
