Greetings again fellow readers. It is that time again for some NFL picks. Last week I had a pretty good week for picks getting a 10-6 record, it might’ve been different if Mike Tomlin didn’t interfere and possibly let the Ravens win the game, the Jets didn’t blow chunks, and the Bills did something that only bad teams would do, let bad teams beat them! Here are my week 14 picks:
Houston @ Jacksonville: Jaguars. I mean yeah the Jaguars were the laughing and yet sad stock in the NFL. So are the Texans. This game may end up in a tie, where no one will win. Is it even sad that I feel good about the Jaguars?
Atlanta @ Green Bay: Packers. Let’s be honest, the Packers got embarrassed on Thanksgiving. The team was a great QB short of winning that game. I haven’t heard any word about Aaron Rodgers being cleared to play in this game. Given that its December and the game is in Lambeau so certainly the Packers have the weather advantage.
Minnesota @ Baltimore: Ravens. Pretty relatively easy pick. Pick them.
Cleveland @ New England: Patriots. The game itself looks promising to watch, given that the Browns hold the Patriots to a close lead late in the game. Other than that this game is a Patriots blowout written all over it.
Oakland @ New York Jets: Raiders! The Jets stunk it up last week against the Dolphins. It is only right to trust my gut instinct (and trust me its a good instinct) that the Raiders will get to 5 wins.
Buffalo @ Tampa Bay: Buccaneers. Vegas is giving the Bucs the edge in this game. Seems like a good enough reason to pick them, I mean after all the team stinks, and so does the Bills. Bills are a top 5 rushing team.
Kansas City @ Washington: KC! RGIII isn’t the same that he was a year ago, certainly because of the slump but the Chiefs need to rebound after losing to the Broncos in the marquee matchup last week. Must win if they want to hold homefield advantage in the playoffs.
St. Louis @ Arizona: Cardinals. The other NFC West game features the Rams traveling to the Cardinals to take on a good Cardinals team fronted by Carson Palmer (yeah that Carson Palmer). I like the Cardinals.
Detroit @ Philadelphia: Eagles. The Lions deserve to go down muahahaha.
New York Giants @ San Diego: Giants. Giants right now look like a 7-5 team than a 5-7 team right now, the thing is that the Giants sort of gave up early in the season and then started to march back into light of relevancy. Chargers could possibly win this game at home but I’ll feel safe with the G-Men.
Seattle @ San Francisco: Seahawks. Very important game this week with the Seahawks coming to Candlestick Park to take on the Niners. The game itself should be a shootout between two good QB’s, but I’m going with the Seahawks.
Carolina @ New Orleans: Saints. The Saints at home are like unbeatable, unlike on the road. Give me the Saints. Sorry Carolina.
Indianapolis @ Cincinnati: Colts. My Non-Picking Bengals rule still applies here. Colts for the upset!
Tennessee @ Denver: Broncos. Don’t get me started with this one.
Dallas @ Chicago: Cowboys. This is really the Monday Night Football game this week. Yuck. Just when I thought the Seahawks/Saints game looked good.
