NFL Predictions- Week 12

12-4 Straight up and 7-9 ATS last week. Season is now at 101-59 and 75-85.

Packers (-10.5) over LIONS- Detroit really put on a show last week and is a winner at home this year, but Green Bay’s offense is just too much for a Lions defense that gave up 37 points to the Browns. Packers 33 Lions 16

COWBOYS (-13.5) over Raiders- Oakland got a miracle last week and will just pack them up for a Dallas team that needs to make a national showing on Thursday. Dallas 34 Raiders 6

Broncos (+6.5) over GIANTS- Denver has completely hit the skids and has not even been competitive in the last 4 games. New York’s defense nearly gave another game away last week and they tend to play it close. Giants win but don’t cover. Giants 24 Broncos 21

Buccaneers (+12.5) over FALCONS- Atlanta is back home where they always play better, but the Bucs have been game on the road and the points are so high that they may have that backdoor cover opportunity. Falcons 30 Buccaneers 19

Dolphins (-3.5) over BILLS- With the Dolphins well rested and the Bills just so terrible this should be an easy win to put Miami right in the middle of contention. Dolphins 20 Bills 13

BENGALS (-14.5 ) over Browns- Bengals will be looking to lay a hurting on their opponents this week after falling to the Raiders. Hard to see Cleveland being able to mentally play this week as well. Bengals 28 Browns 7

Colts (-3.5) over TEXANS- After another bad home performance the Texans need this win if they want to save their coaches job. Stats dont like their chances at all. Colts 32 Texans 13

Panthers (+3.5) over JETS- Jets season has simply blown up while the Panthers seem to stick around in games. Jets get in their own way more than Carolina does. Panthers 23 Jets 20

Redskins (+9.5) over EAGLES- The Redskins stink, but somehow find ways to keep games within 10. Easy game for the Eagles to overlook. Eagles 26 Redskins 17

RAMS (+2.5) over Seahawks- Incredibly tough game because the Seahawks are so bad away from home while the Rams are just bad everywhere. Seattle has yet to break their road patterns so we will give the edge to the stats that favor the Rams to win. Rams 28 Seahawks 20

Chiefs (+13.5) over CHARGERS- This is the kind of game where San Diego often doesnt show up and just barely wins the game. Chiefs stunned the world last week and are competitive away from home. Chargers 26 Chiefs 20

Jaguars (+3.5) over 49’ERS- Somehow Jacksonville is in the playoff hunt, but will have to play mistake free ball to win this game. Doubt it happens but they can keep it close. 49’ers 23 Jaguars 20

VIKINGS (-10.5) over Bears- Chicago is just a mess right now with a QB that can not keep the ball in the hands of his own team. They are at least better than the usual Viking opponent, but still not good enough. Vikings 27 Bears 10

Cardinals (-2.5) over TITANS- This is assuming Kurt Warner plays because if he does not they may lose outright. Cards were all out of synch without him on the field last week. Huge game for Tennessee, but the short week may hurt the momentum. Cardinals 30 Titans 20

RAVENS (-2.5) over Steelers- An absolute must win for Pittsburgh if they want to defend their title in the postseason, but Baltimore losing two weeks in a row at home rarely happens. Ravens 26 Steelers 17

SAINTS (-3.5) over Patriots- One of the few remaining tests for the Saints who get a major advantage by being in the dome. New England has not been impressive away from home while the Saints murder teams in their own building. Potential Super Bowl preview. Saints 37 Patriots 24
