2017 NFL Week 10 Predictions

Week 10 Predictions
Saints -3 over Bills, 27-16
-The Bills aren’t quite as good as I thought, and I think we are at the point where the Saints are for real and need to be treated and such. Good for them.

Bears -5.5 over Packers, 16-9
-This feels so weird. Poor Packers. Thanks for Martellus though!

Lions -11 over Browns, 24-6
-Lions are my pick to win that division, and everyone is sleeping on them. Stafford continues along, underappreciated, overachieving without elite receivers to work with.

Steelers -10 over Colts, 27-3
-This could be ugly. Steelers are getting a nice run of opponents here. Somehow, I am seeing a 1-2-3 finish for the Pats-Steelers-Chiefs respectively, and that could be awesome for NE. Colts...I have so many questions about what you are doing. The management of Luck is criminal at this point.

Chargers +4.5 over Jags, 20-21
-This just feels like a close game. LAC is an opponent that can actually force Blake to Bortle a bit with their pass rush. I’ll be interested to see if the Fournette issue was an aberration or is something that is going to halt his awesome rookie season.

Jets -2.5 over Bucs, 17-13
-Bucs are a mess, and the Jets are playing competently.

Titans -4.5 over Bengals, 20-14
-Titans run the ball down their throat. Hopefully that doesn’t make AJ that mad…

Vikings -1.5 over Ethnic Slurs, 20-17
-Vikings are rested and ready for this team. I know Washington just beat Seattle, but that was a weird game and Vikings are going to be ready and more stout on defense than Seattle currently is.

Rams -11 over Texans, 31-16
-I believe in these Rams, and think they have a really good shot to win this division. They just need to keep the growth going, and not stop where they are at. The Texans I feel bad for, but I think the implosion is coming. It would be hard not to lose hope, right?

Falcons -3 over Cowboys, 28-24
-No Zeke is the defining element here. We will see if the line is still as good as it was two years ago. The Falcons have to get this right at some point, at least to start scoring.

49ers +3.5 over Giants, 17-15
-That’s just too many points at home, so here’s hoping the Niners get their first win.

Pats -7.5 over Broncos, 27-13
-Bigger number than I’d like, but the Pats are coming off the bye and the Broncos are a mess. Good bet, and the tease is almost guaranteed.

Panthers -9 over Fins, 20-10
-Panthers will grind out a relatively easy 10-point victory versus a team ready to make Cutler related mistakes.
