I apologize for not getting these in on Friday. In fact, I apologize for the whole month of November which saw our lowest numbers since March of 2011. I think it had to do with a lot of things and I am sort of changing my philosophy on how we get content to you daily. Hopefully, we turn it around in December. Enjoy the picks!
Jacksonville (2-9) at Cleveland (4-7) (-7) 12:00 pm CBS - I have no idea why this spread is seven points. I do not think the Browns are playing good football right now, and Jacksonville seems fairly competent at this point. JAX 19-10
Tennessee (5-6) at Indianapolis (7-4) (-4) 12:00 pm CBS - I cannot put a finger on Indy right now. They are playing very inconsistent, but I cannot take Ryan Fitzpatrick on the road in a meaningful game.
IND 23-17
Chicago (6-5) at Minnesota (2-8-1) (-1) 12:00 pm FOX - As I noted earlier last week, Chicago has given up a total of 197 yards on average in the last five games against the run. If Minnesota uses their gameplan from last week, they win this game. I think they do and Detroit heads into pole position.. MIN 24-21
Miami (5-6) at New York Jets (5-6) (-1) 12:00 pm CBS - Peter King noted this morning Geno Smith did not throw a touchdown in the month of November. Miami is one of the weirdest teams in the NFL. I think they can go on the road and win this thing. MIA 20-14
Arizona (7-4) at Philadelphia (6-5) (-3) 12:00 pm FOX - Best matchup of the early Sunday slate. Arizona is red hot with a great offense. Philadelphia played great leading up to their bye and needs this win to stay with Dallas in the NFC East. I do think Arizona is legit, but I cannot ride with the west coast team traveling east in the cold, I will take Foles and Philly. PHI 28-23
Tampa Bay (3-8) at Carolina (8-3) (-7.5) 12:00 pm FOX - Panthers must not look ahead to New Orleans next week. Tampa is playing good football, but they come back down earth today with a big Cam Newton performance. CAR 30-17
New England (8-3) (-9) at Houston (2-9) 12:00 pm CBS - This I guess was billed as Houston's homecoming game and if that's the case, aren't you supposed to play a bad team? Patriots, big. NE 34-14
Atlanta (2-9) at Buffalo (4-7) (-3) 3:05 pm FOX (Played in Toronto) - Hate that this one is being played in the home of Drake but I digress, I think Atlanta is the worst team in the NFL. Buffalo is good enough to win on the road. BUF 21-13
St. Louis (5-6) at San Francisco (7-4) (-8) 3:05 pm FOX - Interesting affair here. Given Arizona's hot streak, no one is talking about the play of St. Louis. They are playing real good football and gave San Francisco quite the game last year in the Bay Area. Although the Niners can stop the run and they will to win this football game. SF 16-10
Denver (9-2) (-6) at Kansas City (9-2) 3:25 pm CBS - A game that I feel has lost its luster just a bit with both teams suffering losses last week. It will be a pretty nice day for Peyton Manning as it is 55 degrees in Kansas City. I cannot trust the Chiefs to beat a good opponent plus Justin Houston out hurts this team way more than people think it does in my opinion. DEN 31-27
Cincinnati (7-4) at San Diego (5-6) (-1) 3:25 pm CBS - Woof. I have the slightest clue with this one because San Diego puzzles me and the same for Cincinnati. I have to think Andy Dalton can have a big game on offense, and this defense will be able to control Phillip Rivers. CIN 28-17
New York Giants (4-7) (-1) at Washington (3-8) 7:30 pm NBC - Woof The Sequel. This is not a good football game. I will take Washington because I feel like there is no way they can lay an egg two straight weeks at home on national television. WASH 23-21
New Orleans (9-2) at Seattle (10-1) (-5) 7:30 pm ESPN - I want to pick New Orleans so bad this one. I feel like Seattle is due for a loss, but when the weather is a high of 41 with rain and snow showers, it favors the Seahawks in a major way. I think the spread is too high, but in the end, Seahawks get the victory on a last-second field goal meaning they control the NFC. SEA 20-17
