Week 14 NFL Picks

At Washington -2.5 Baltimore
The Skins have momentum and last week, the Ravens showed that they’re not exactly unstoppable.
Pick: Skins -2.5

At Cleveland -7 Kansas City
Tragedy fueled an inspired victory for the Chiefs. I don’t think they can maintain that level of emotional intensity for another week, on the road.
Pick: Browns -7

At Pittsburgh -8 San Diego
The Chargers could be in house cleaning mode while the Steelers could be playoff bound if they keep winning. Big Ben’s return prompts a big win in Pittsburgh.
Pick: Steelers -8

At Indianapolis -5.5 Tennessee
These Colts could make some noise in the playoffs.
Pick: Colts -5.5

NY Jets -3 At Jacksonville
The Jags got beat up pretty bad last week. A big game from Montell Owens likely won’t be enough to put the Jags over the top in a sloppy game.
Pick: Jets -3

Chicago -3 At Minnesota
AP is putting together an incredible season. The Bears are coming off a tough loss and their defense needs to get healthy. This game could be close for awhile, but the Bears should pull away.
Pick: Bears -3

Atlanta -3.5 At Carolina
The division rivalry that wasn’t. The Falcons are just better.
Pick: Falcons -3.5

At Tampa Bay -7.5 Philadelphia
This season just can’t end soon enough for the Eagles.
Pick: Bucs -7.5

At Buffalo -3 St. Louis
The Bills showed a spark last week, but the Rams are riding high as well. I like St. Louis a bit better in this situation.
Pick: Rams +3

At Cincinnati -3.5 Dallas
You don’t bet against tragedy. There’s just too many examples of tragic circumstances translating into inspired play.
Pick: Cowboys +3.5

At San Francisco -11 Miami
I feel like the spread is too high for this new look Niners team. They’ll probably cover though while playing such an inferior team at home.
Pick: Niners -11

At NY Giants -5 New Orleans
As much as I want to pick the Saints again, the Giants just have more to play for. They have to win now to keep this playoff hope thing going.
Pick: Giants -5

At Seattle -10 Arizona
This Cards team needs a new something. QB, head coach, something. Seattle is winless in their division, but undefeated at home.
Pick: Seahawks -10

At Green Bay -7 Detroit
This just isn’t Detroit’s year.
Pick: Packers -7

At New England -3.5 Houston
Game of the week right here. In primetime no less. Edge goes to the Pats.
Pick: Pats -3.5

Last Week: 8-8
Season 93-90-4
Last Season: 140-120-12
