The holiday season enters overdrive, but it's more than just sleigh bells, gingerbread and the moon shining on the breast of the new-fallen snow. This Sunday was about continued domination from favorites, the Raiders moving out of the league's basement, and an electrifying victory by the Washington Commanders. Action Network NFL betting experts Chad Millman and Simon Hunter faithfully return to discuss all things betting for NFL Week 16, as they take accountability before Sunday Night Football kicks off in Big D. Plus, we get their early looks at Week 17 matchups.
