![]() The oddsmakers have made the Bills a 1.5-point favorite over the Cowboys, which sounds slightly crazy to me because the Bills have lost THREE OF THEIR PAST FIVE GAMES. If there's one point spread that caught my eye this week, it's this one. The pick: Broncos 23-20 over Lions Dallas (10-3) at Buffalo (7-6) I feel like that can't be a good thing for the Lions. So what we have on Sunday is one of the most turnover-prone quarterbacks in the NFL going up against one of a defense that's been forcing turnovers at a wildly impressive rate. To put Goff's 12 turnovers in perspective, there are four teams in the NFL that haven't even turned the ball over 12 times THIS SEASON and Goff has hit that number just over the past eight weeks. If your quarterback is turning the ball over three times, you usually don't win the NFL. Denver (7-6) at Detroit (9-4)Īfter watching the Lions play for the past three weeks, I've noticed a few troubling things about them: Their defense has gotten progressively worse, their offense has gotten progressively worse and Jared Goff is playing like he just got visited by the Ghost of Christmas Future, who just showed him how depressing the rest of the Lions' season is going to be if the QB doesn't get his act together soon. ![]() Check it out if you want to know which side to bet for every game in Week 15. If you want a more analytical approach to your NFL picks, then I highly suggest that you check out the SportsLine Projection Model, which has been on fire this year. Watt and Alex Highsmith - are both in concussion protocol and if just one of them can't play on Saturday, that would be a huge loss for Pittsburgh. 500.Īnother thing that's not working in the Steelers' favor: Two of their best defensive players - T.J. 500 AND lose consecutive games to teams that were both eight games below. With losses to the Cardinals and Patriots over the past two weeks, Pittsburgh became the first team ever to be above. The Steelers are coming into this game on possibly the most embarrassing losing streak in NFL history. These two teams have combined for exactly one playoff win over the past five years and that came from the Colts in 2018. That being said, it's probably for the best that this isn't a playoff game, because if that were the case, I'd have to pick both teams to lose. This isn't a playoff game, but it's going to kind of feel like a playoff game and that's because the loser won't have much hope of making the postseason. On a normal Saturday during the NFL season, I generally spend my entire day telling my 3-year-old not to throw her Bluey figures in the toilet, but I guess her mom is going to have to be the voice of reason this week, because I have football to watch. The date of this game is NOT a typo, Saturday football is back! From now until the end of the season, we'll be getting at least one Saturday game per week and that starts this week with a Saturday tripleheader on NFL Network. NFL Week 15 picks Pittsburgh (7-6) at Indianapolis (7-6) It makes a great holiday gift and that's mostly because it doesn't cost you anything and because it gets delivered to your inbox five days per week, it truly is the gift that keeps on giving.Īlright, let's actually get to the picks.

Speaking of things that may or may not be competent, let's get to the Week 15 picks.Īctually, before we get to the picks, here's a quick reminder that you can check out the weekly picks from every NFL expert by clicking here. We want refs who aren't competent, right? Or do we actually want competent refs? Guys, I'll be honest, I can't even keep track anymore. I have written a lengthy email to Goodell to let him know that we need refs who are less competent than what we saw Sunday. We can't have the officials correctly throwing penalty flags on guys who deserve it, that might actually make the refs look competent and I won't stand for it. They called offsides on a guy who was offsides! WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT? THE NFL NEEDS TO INVESTIGATE RIGHT NOW. I almost didn't have time to write my picks this week and that's because I was way too busy writing an email to Roger Goodell.Īs we all know, the NFL needs to vacate the Bills' win over the Chiefs from Sunday because the refs absolutely blew the call at the end of the game.
