NFL Week XIV Picks

I'm posting picks before results again. That means another busy week! For those non-romans, this is week 14.

  • Cincinnati vs. New England (-11): This week is a week to prove my theory of not picking the favorite when the spread is ten or more points. There are five games this week! And my first opportunity, I take the favorite!
  • Cleveland vs. Buffalo (-11): But Buffalo will win.
  • New York Giants vs. Baltimore (-10): But Baltimore will win.
  • Detroit vs. Green Bay (-9.5): The Packers are rolling again, and they were able to beat Detroit when they weren't.
  • Seattle vs. Minnesota (-7): Minnesota isn't playing great, but Seattle is playing worse.
  • Oakland vs. Atlanta (-7.5): Even week Atlanta.
  • Chicago vs. Jacksonville (-7.5): Jacksonville's defense should rattle whoever's taking snaps for the Bears.
  • New Orleans vs. Dallas (-7): Dallas is coming off of a huge win. Hopefully, they won't let down.
  • Indianapolis (-11) vs. Houston: Indy on the road favored by 11. And I think they'll cover!
  • New York Jets vs. Pittsburgh (-5): Pittsburgh is my favorite to come out of the AFC. The Jets won't stop them.
  • Miami vs. Denver (-11.5): But Denver gets the win.
  • St. Louis vs. Carolina (-7): Carolina is the fav? I think not!
  • San Francisco vs. Arizona (-7): Seven points is a lot for Arizona to be favored by. Plus, I think the 49ers will pull this one out anyway.
  • Tampa Bay vs. San Diego (-5): I think this should be eight or nine points. It seems like everyone keeps waiting for them to come back to earth.
  • Philadelphia (-9.5) vs. Washington: One of only two teams to be favored on the road, the Eagles shouldn't have trouble with Washington.
  • Kansas City vs. Tennessee (-2): No defense, and now Holmes done for the year. That's gotta hurt.

So there you have it. I'm tired. I'm going to bed!
