It’s Week 13 of the 2016 NFL season, and that is going to prove to be unlucky for quite a few teams, many of whom have their seasons on the line coming into this weekend. Let’s quickly go over all the match-ups and make some predictions as we go.
Analyzing The NFL Picks Week 13 Predictions & Odds Guide
Dallas Cowboys at Minnesota Vikings (+3.5) – O/U 44
The Cowboys are on a 10-game winning streak, and are also unbeaten on the road this season. Minnesota Vikings have cooled off after a fast start, and I don’t see this one being as close as the bookies have it. Big win for the Cowboys.
Denver Broncos at Jacksonville Jaguars (+5) – O/U 41
It has been something of a disaster season for the Jaguars, and while the Broncos have yet to hit the heights of last season, I see them getting a double digit win here.
Kansas City Chiefs at Atlanta Falcons (-3.5) – O/U 49
The Falcons have the best offense in the league, but they are going against a very good Chiefs defense. This one goes down to the wire, and the Chiefs eke out the win, with the UNDER hitting.
Detroit Lions at New Orleans Saints (-5.5) – O/U 53.5
The Lions are the surprise leaders in the NFC North, and they will be hitting the road to face a desperate Saints team that can’t afford another loss. I like the Lions to cover.
San Francisco 49ers at Chicago Bears (-1.5) – O/U 43.5
It has been a nightmare season for both teams, but the one thing that stands out here is that both Chicago wins have come at home, while the 49ers have yet to win on the road Take the Bears SU and ATS.
LA Rams at New England Patriots (-13.5) – O/U 44.5
The Patriots have not been particularly impressive over the past couple of weeks, and they haven’t been great at home. Still way too good for the Rams to handle. Pats in a blowout.
Miami Dolphins at Baltimore Ravens (-3) – O/U 40.5
The Dolphins are hot, winning 6 games in a row and sitting comfortably in a Wild Card spot. They can put some space between themselves and the competition with a win in Baltimore, which I think they will do.
Buffalo Bills at Oakland Raiders (-3) – O/U 49
Of all the games on the board, this is the one that really stands out. The Raiders are rolling, and I think they win this one comfortably.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers at San Diego Chargers (-3.5) – O/U 47.5
The Buccaneers have come out of nowhere to move into second place in their division, and they have been particularly good on the road. I like them for the upset here.
Washington Redskins at Arizona Cardinals (-2.5) – O/U 49.5
The season looks to be over for the Arizona Cardinals, while the Redskins are making a major playoff move. I like the Redskins to come away with the win here.
New York Giants at Pittsburgh Steelers (-6) – O/U 49
The Giants have won 6 straight games, but have a tough road trip against a Steelers team that is battling to win their division. Steelers win, but Giants cover.
Carolina Panthers at Seattle Seahawks (-6.5) – O/U 44.5
The Panthers essentially saw their season come to an end last weekend with a loss to the Raiders. Things are going to go from bad to worse with another defeat on the road in Seattle.
