NFL Week 13 Picks

NickFoles4My Overall Record: 111-68

Tampa Bay @ Carolina

Carolina is on an absolute roll right now. The defense continues to play at a high level, and Cam Newton is starting to learn how to win games in the fourth quarter. Panthers continue their winning streak at home.

Pick: Carolina 23, Tampa Bay 10

Jacksonville @ Cleveland

The Browns at one point were winning enough that some people actually thought they had an outside shot to win the AFC North. Since then, the wheels have fallen off and the lack of talent on the Cleveland roster has finally been getting exposed. Gus Bradley and the Jaguars have won two of their last three, and I actually like them to go on the road and make it three of their last four.

Pick: Jacksonville 17, Cleveland 16

New England @ Houston

The Texans are a complete lost cause. They’ve fallen from a division favorite to a contender for the top draft pick. The Patriots shouldn’t have any drama this week trying to get a win.

Pick: New England 30, Houston 17

Tennessee @ Indianapolis

After a terrible showing against Arizona, I expect Andrew Luck to bounce back with a strong performance at home.

Pick: Indianapolis 28, Tennessee 20

Chicago @ Minnesota

The Bears will squeeze one more win out of Josh McCown on the road.

Pick: Chicago 26, Minnesota 20

Miami @ New York

Geno Smith has been a trainwreck over the last month. The Dolphins have finally emerged from their slump, and are playing well enough to win this on the road.

Pick: Miami 20, New York 10

Arizona @ Philadelphia

The Cardinals have had the Eagles’ number over the last five years.

Pick: Arizona 27, Philadelphia 23

Atlanta @ Buffalo

Do the Falcons have any pride left?

Pick: Buffalo 23, Atlanta 20

St. Louis @ San Francisco

Its time for Colin Kaepernick to heat up now that his receivers are getting healthy.

Pick: San Francisco 30, St. Louis 13

Denver @ Kansas City

Kansas City is finally getting exposed. Now without Tamba Hali and Justin Houston, it makes a daunting task of stopping Peyton Manning that much more difficult.

Pick: Denver 30, Kansas City 20

Cincinnati @ San Diego

Fresh off of the bye week, the Bengals go on the road and extend their lead in the AFC North.

Pick: Cincinnati 24, San Diego 17

New York Giants @ Washington

The Redskins can’t possibly play any worse than they did on Monday night. I like them to bounce back and pick up a division win against the Giants.

Pick: Washington 23, New York 20

New Orleans @ Seattle

Each team has a strong defense. New Orleans has the better offense, but Seattle has their home field on their side. However, I still like Drew Brees over Russell Wilson.

Pick: New Orleans 27, Seattle 24

Some great Match-ups
2 Upset Specials for me this week

TB Bucs over the Panthers 23-20
Believe it or not, Tampa’s Rookie QB Mike Glennon has player really well
And compares to many NFL folks of Nick Foles,
Young, big in the Pocket, good decision maker and protects the ball
I expect the Panthers to come out a little flat today where many on the TB Bucs Roster are fighting for their Jobs as well as their Coaching Staff

Chargers over Bengals 31-27
Chargers are playing loose, confident and have been in almost every game this Season.. I expect another late Scoring Drive by QB Rivers over an in insistent Bengal Team..
