Week 14 Picks Are In

Well this week it appears as if I am putting a lot of stock into the visiting teams as 2/3 of my picks belong to the traveling teams.

1. Colts
2. Jaguars
3. Steelers
4. Patriots
5. Browns
6. Giants
7. Packers
8. Falcons
9. Buccs
10. Saints
11. 49ers
12. Jets
13. Broncos
14. Chargers
15. Eagles
16. Ravens

I am picking four games that I believe will either be good games to watch or have a pretty clear impact on standings.

1. Raiders vs Jaguars: Although the Raiders have let me down in recent weeks, last week they played hard. I did not pick them this week, but I think that the Jaguars will be a good opponent. It's about time for the Raiders to put up or shut up and prove doubters wrong with a win, on the road, to beat a team atop their division.
2. Dolphins vs Jets: This game has two teams that are in the middle. After the embarrassment that was last week's defeat against the Patriots, I am looking for the Jets to bounce back hard.
3. Eagles vs Cowboys: The Eagles are still red hot right now. However, the Cowboys have seen a resurgence under interim head coach, Jason Garrett. I'm pretty sure that the Eagles will win this one, but you never know what will happen in a Texas showdown.
   
4. Seahawks vs 49ers: This game has serious implications for the NFC West. Currently the Rams are a half a game ahead of the Seahawks who are both 6-6. In order for the Rams to hold the top spot in the NFC West, the 49ers need to win. The Rams are taking on the Saints in New Orleans this week, while a win is not impossible, my money is on the Saints. A Seahawks win puts the Rams at a half a game back. Having family that loves both the Rams and the 49ers, I'm rooting for both, but I enjoy the Saints and root for them too. The only way to see all happy is a Saints win and a Seahawks loss. That would keep the Rams on top, the 49er fans in my life happy, and me happy!
