Week 15 in the NFL: Picks and predictions

Three weeks to go.

Buckle up.


Last weeks record: 11-4

Overall record: 122-73-1


Washington @ Atlanta:  Too much disfunction, too much drama.  Give me the Falcons.

San Francisco @ Tampa Bay:  This is a trap game game for Colin Kaepernick and company, ESPECIALLY coming off an emotional divisional win.  However, I think they find a way to get it done on the road.  I'll take the 49ers.

Seattle @ NY Giants:  I just don't think that Giants offense can overcome that Seattle defense.  Give me the Seahawks on the road.

Philadelphia @ Minnesota:  UPSET ALERT!!  I nailed it last week, and I have just as good of a feeling this week.  This Minnesota team has been close lately, and I think they finally put it all together here.  i'll take the Vikings in a close one.

Buffalo @ Jacksonville:  Henne!!! Give credit to Jacksonville, they've turned this into a respectable season after a brutal start.  I'll take the Jaguars here.  They're just the hotter team.

Houston @ Indianapolis:  I don't like what I've seen out of Indianapolis lately.  However, they're not bad enough to lose Case Keenum and Wade Phillips, right?  We'll see.  Give me the Colts.

Chicago @ Cleveland:  Jay Cutler>Josh McCown.  I don't care what his numbers look like.  Give me the Bears.

Kansas City @ Oakland:  I like what I saw out of Kansas City last week.  Meanwhile, Oakland lost to the Jets.  Get where I'm going with this?  Give me the Chiefs.

NY Jets @ Carolina:  Godspeed, Geno Smith.  Godspeed.  Panthers.

Green Bay @ Dallas:  No Aaron Rodgers?  No bueno.  Not on the road, not this late in the season.  I'll take Romo and the Cowboys.

Arizona @ Tennessee:  Give Ryan Fitzpatrick and Mike Munchak credit, despite the losses piling up, they still have this team in every game.  This one's tough for me.  I like both defenses, dislike both offenses, and think both QB's are mediocre.  Everyone cancels everyone out!  When that happens, I go with the home team.  Give me the Titans in a close one.

New Orleans @ St. Louis:  It doesn't matter where this game is, New Orleans is the better team, fair and square.  Give me the Saints.

Cincinnati @ Pittsburgh:  Something just tells me that Big Ben isn't quite ready to be done.  I'll take the Steelers in a good old fashion defensive struggle.

Baltimore @ Detroit:  The Ravens just barrely survived last week.  I don't think they're that lucky on Monday night.  Not against a ticked off Detroit team.  Give me the Lions.


Alright folks, that'll do it for now.

Check back tomorrow for you pre-game coverage, including my prediction.  And, as always, come back during the game for the live, quarter by quarter, blog of the game!
