Week 17 usually features some of the year’s strangest betting lines, and 2016 is no different. A few of the NFL’s best teams are underdogs in their regular season finales.

The Dallas Cowboys have clinched the No. 1 seed in the NFC, and they are expected to lose just their third game of the season. With nothing to play for, Dallas is a six-point underdog in their upcoming contest against the Philadelphia Eagles.

The Washington Redskins are fighting for their playoff lives, and they might not have much trouble beating the New York Giants in Week 17. New York is guaranteed to be the No. 5 seed in the playoffs, likely meaning they’ll rest some of their starters Sunday. As a result, the Redskins are eight-point favorites in a game they must win in order to make the postseason.

Washington is among three teams that are in contention for the remaining two playoff spots. The final postseason berth will be determined on “Sunday Night Football” between the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions. The winner will finish atop the NFC North.

If the Redskins beat the Giants, the loser of the NFC North battle won’t make the playoffs. Having won five games in a row, the Packers are three-point favorites in Detroit. Green Bay defeated the Lions by seven points in Week 3.

A few AFC games have playoff implications, even though all six postseason teams are known. The New England Patriots can clinch home-field advantage up until the Super Bowl with a win over the Miami Dolphins, and they are expected to defeat their AFC East rivals. The Patriots are favored by 9.5 points on the road.

The Oakland Raiders can clinch a first-round bye with a win over the Denver Broncos, but that will be easier said than done. Even though Denver has nothing to play for, they are 2.5-point favorites over the Raiders, who will be starting Matt McGloin at quarterback for the first time this season.

If the Raiders lose, the Chiefs can steal the No. 2 seed and the AFC West title with a victory. They are 4.5-point road favorites against the San Diego Chargers, whom they needed overtime to beat in the season opener.
