NFL Picks: Week 15

18 December 2009 61 views No Comment

Week 14 was another profitable week, helped by the Indianapolis Colts scoring a final touchdown and the Green Bay Packers winning in Chicago as well as a high percentage of correct picks once again. Playoffs are getting serious now as we head into week 15:

Thursday 17th December 2009
Indianapolis Colts 35 @ 31 Jacksonville Jaguars
The Colts moved to 14-0 with their 7th fourth quarter comeback of the season (another NFL record). Their were doubts as to how many of their starters would last the game, but Peyton Manning took all the snaps and threw 4 touchdowns as the Jaguars put up a fight. They narrowly won my bet after being 3 point favourites on the spread, but it was far from the biggest amount I’ve backed them with this season! New York and Buffalo is all that remains from a perfect season.

Saturday 19th December 2009
New Orleans Saints @ Dallas Cowboys
Our Pick: New Orleans – This is a potential trap game for New Orleans, but Tony Romo’s record in December will aid the Saints here to remain unbeaten.

Sunday 20th December 2009
Chicago Bears @ Baltimore Ravens
Our Pick: Baltimore – The Bears season ended last week while the Ravens were given a playoff boost with the Jaguars loss on Thursday night. They will win to keep competitive.

Sunday 20th December 2009
New England Patriots @ Buffalo Bills
Our Pick: New England -7 – Another win here for the Patriots and they’ll be closer to wrapping up the division. Buffalo shouldn’t be able to keep it competitive for long.

Sunday 20th December 2009
Arizona Cardinals @ Detroit Lions
Our Pick: Arizona – They’re inconsistent but the Cardinals will win this one on the road against the hapless Lions.

Sunday 20th December 2009
Houston Texans @ St Louis Rams
Our Pick: Houston – Poised for another 8-8 season, the Texans should take advantage of the Rams quarterback problems, but they can’t afford to get run over by Steven Jackson.

Sunday 20th December 2009
Miami Dolphins @ Tennessee Titans
Our Pick: Tennessee – Chris Johnson faces a tough defence, but he and Vince Young combined should be too much for the Dolphins. Chad Henne played well in Jacksonville but the Titans defence should get more pressure this weekend.

Sunday 20th December 2009
Cleveland Browns @ Kansas City Chiefs
Our Pick: Kansas City – The Browns pulled off a surprise last week, but I think the Chiefs will bounce back this week. Not one to bet one.

Sunday 20th December 2009
Atlanta Falcons @ New York Jets
Our Pick: New York – Darrelle Revis can shutdown Roddy White and then there’s little else left on the Atlanta offence. New York can run the ball to pick up the victory to keep them in playoff contention.

Sunday 20th December 2009
San Francisco 49ers @ Philadelphia Eagles
Our Pick: Philadelphia -7 – The Eagles are on a 4 game winning streak and put a big dent into New York’s playoff ambitions last week. San Francisco are inconsistent and shouldn’t cause too many problems in Philadelphia.

Sunday 20th December 2009
Oakland Raiders @ Denver Broncos
Our Pick: Denver – There’s only one winner in this one as the Broncos close in on their wildcard berth.

Sunday 20th December 2009
Cincinnati Bengals @ San Diego Chargers
Our Pick: San Diego – I’m a little surprised at the large spread, but the Chargers are a complete team and Cincinnati are a bit one-dimensional on offence as the Vikings saw them off last weekend. Hit by the tragic loss of Chris Henry, the Bengals will have to wait another week to clinch the AFC North.

Sunday 20th December 2009
Green Bay Packers @ Pittsburgh Steelers
Our Pick: Pittsburgh – With the long week to recover, the homefield advantage and pass rush, the Steelers can end their losing streak this weekend.

Sunday 20th December 2009
Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Seattle Seahawks
Our Pick: Seattle – Homefield advantage and against a team with just 1 win this season, Seattle should record their 6th this Sunday.

Sunday 20th December 2009
Minnesota Vikings @ Carolina Panthers
Our Pick: Minnesota – The Vikings have beat all the poor teams this season and Carolina don’t have much to offer but a rushing game. Adrian Peterson will run over them too.

Monday 21st December 2009
New York Giants @ Washington Redskins
Our Pick: New York -3 – The Giants have been disappointing since a 5-0 start. Now Tom Coughlin must be fearing his future, I see his team playing for him on Monday night and pickup the victory.
