NFL 2015 Week 16 Predictions

Week 16 Predictions
Ethnic Slurs -3 over Eagles
-Eagles continue to collapse.

I am avoiding Panthers games for the last two weeks. Also anything Bears or Bucs, which is convenient because they play each other. The Cowboys/Bills game offends me on general principle.

Lions -10 over Niners
-Lions can score, Niners can’t.

Chiefs -10.5 over Browns
-Wow did the schedule break right for KC.

Pats -3 over Jets
-There is a lot of reason to choose either side, but in any close game with only a FG line and something reasonable for the Pats to play for (home field throughout), I’ll stay with Brady and Belichick.

Texans -3.5 over Titans
-No Hoyer but the defense carries this for the playoff bound Texans.

Steelers -10 over Ravens
-Lock of the week. Ravens may give a good try, but how the hell they cover the air attack, I have no idea.

Jags +3 over Saints, JAX SU
-Uncertainty over Brees makes me concerned. Taking the team I know will be able to score and is going in the right direction.

Cards -4.5 over Packers
-Low confidence because Arizona is much better but Green Bay have far more motivation to win.

Seahawks -12 over Rams
-Two team tease with Steelers? Yes please.

Vikings -6.5 over Giants
-Giants are falling out of it and this is a nail in the coffin without OBJ.

Bengals +3.5 over Broncos
-Just a hunch, taking the points in a close game.

Record last week:
Straight Up: 7-4
By Spread: 7-3

Record this year:
Straight Up: 119-75
By Spread: 103-89


Lifetime record:
Straight Up: 922-505
By Spread: 753-660

NFL 2015 Week 15 Predictions

Week 15 Predictions
Cards -3.5 over Eagles
-The Cards march forward toward their bye week.

Jags -3 over Falcons
-The Falcons are bad. Really bad. I can’t believe how bad.

Giants +4 over Panthers, NYG SU
-This is it. Home dog, big offense, hurt Panthers.

Vikings -5.5 over Bears
-Season is over for the Bears at this point, Vikings want that playoff spot.

Chiefs -6.5 over Ravens
-Chiefs just keep winning. Don’t look now, but that AFC West title is still alive….

Broncos +7 over Steelers, PIT SU
-…Because the Steelers are probably going to beat the Broncos this week. 7 points is a lot though.

Fins +1 over Chargers
-Chargers are so far beat up this is simply a pick against them.

Seahawks -14.5 over Browns
-That half point makes me nervous, but this should be a blowout by all accounts.

Pats -14 over Titans
-Ditto.

Packers -3 over Raiders
-I like the Raiders, but this is where the Packers should be waking up and going forward decisively.

Bengals -6 over Niners
-Even with AJ at QB, they can cover this versus the listless Niners.

Saints -2.5 over Lions
-Why not? The Lions are back down after showing some life, and the Saints are good for a 40 point showing at home on Monday night one more time in the Brees/Payton era.

Record last week:
Straight Up: 8-4
By Spread: 7-5

Record this year:
Straight Up: 112-71
By Spread: 96-86

Lifetime record:
Straight Up: 915-501
By Spread: 746-657

NFL 2015 Week 14 Predictions

Week 14 Predictions
Falcons +8 over Panthers, CAR SU
-Panthers defense is not right. Take the points until further notice.

Lions -3.5 over Rams
-Lions are trying, Rams have quit. Or Jeff Fisher doesn’t know how to coach in the 21st century. It is called the forward pass Jeff.

Jags -1.5 over Colts
-Jags can throw. Matt Hasselbeck is looking really old.

Saints +4.5 over Bucs, TB SU
-Too many points for Drew Brees, still.

Pats -3.5 over Texans
-Brady/Bill are not losing this game. It just isn’t happening.

Bengals -2.5 over Steelers
-If this stays under 3, I love it. Bengals essentially can end Steelers’ season.

Chargers  +10.5 over Chiefs, KC SU
-Just cover.

Titans +7.5 over Jets, NYJ SU
-Mariota!

Raiders +6.5 over Broncos, DEN SU
-It is going to be relatively low scoring, so I just want all those points.

Packers -6.5 over Cowboys
-I don’t think the Cowboys can score. I wouldn’t take the over in this game in general.

Ravens +11.5 over Seahawks, SEA SU
-Seattle will probably crush the Ravens from the eye test, but that’s a lot of points and home dogs getting more than 11 points are 70% winners.

Giants -1.5 over Fins
-Who even knows anymore with these two.


Record last week:
Straight Up: 8-7
By Spread: 6-9

Record this year:
Straight Up: 104-67
By Spread: 89-81

Lifetime record:
Straight Up: 907-497
By Spread: 739-652

NFL 2015 Week 13 Predictions


Week 13 Predictions
Texans -2.5 over Bills
-The Texans are rolling, and the Bills can’t get healthy. Time for the end of the season Rex breakdown.

Falcons +2.5 over Bucs, ATL SU
-Falcons have severely fallen off, but they still have a realistic playoff shot.

Bears -6.5 over 49ers
-Bears somewhat have it together now.

Bengals -6.5 over Browns
-How is this not over a touchdown.

Jags +2.5 over Titans
-The Titans want that top pick…

Cards -5.5 over Rams
-The Rams might need to figure out the forward pass to be competitive here.

Fins -4.5 over Ravens
-Matt Schaub’s pick six tour continues!

Seahawks over Vikings
-Tough, defensive game but now the difference is the Seattle passing offense’s ability to move the ball.

Giants +2 over Jets
-Too many injuries the Jets, especially Revis.

Broncos -4.5 over Chargers
-I like this Broncos team to roll until that Bengals team.

Chiefs -2.5 over Raiders
-Chiefs are rolling forward, keeping on that train.

Pats -9.5 over Eagles
-The Pats are going to win this game, and big. But if it creeps over 10, I won’t be taking it.

Saints +8.5 over Panthers, CAR SU
-Too many points, but a probably Carolina win.

Colts +6.5 over Steelers, PIT SU
-Too many points for a team over .500.

Ethnic Slurs -3.5 over Cowboys
