L.A. Chargers vs. Las Vegas Raiders
- When: Thursday, December 14th, 2023. 8:15pm EST.
- Where: Allegiant Stadium, Las Vegas, NV
- NFL Odds: Chargers (+3) // Raiders (-3)
The Bolts aren’t playing well. Even before Justin Herbert got injured in the Chargers’ last, LAC hadn’t been playing consistent ball. On Thursday night, Maxx Crosby and the rest of the Raiders D should have a field day taking it to Easton Stick and Bolts offense.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: Las Vegas Raiders
Minnesota Vikings vs. Cincinnati Bengals
- When: Saturday, December 16th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: Paycor Stadium, Cincinnati, OH
- NFL Odds: Vikings (+3.5) // Bengals (-3.5)
In the Bengals last couple of games, Cincy QB Jake Browning has completed at least 75% of his passes, thrown for a combined 629 yards and thrown 3 TDs to a single pick. With that being written, Brian Flores’ D is rocking. Bengals miss a cover after beating the Vikings by 3.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: Minnesota Vikings
Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Indianapolis Colts
- When: Saturday, December 16th, 2023. 4:30pm EST.
- Where: Lucas Oil Stadium, Indianapolis, IN
- NFL Odds: Steelers (+2.5) // Colts (-2.5)
The Steelers aren’t the same team with Mitch Trubisky at quarterback as they are with Kenny Pickett under center. More importantly, Gardner Minshew is playing great ball for the Colts and Indy has home field advantage.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: Indianapolis Colts
Denver Broncos vs. Detroit Lions
- When: Saturday, December 16th, 2023. 8:15pm EST.
- Where: Ford Field, Detroit, MI
- NFL Odds: Broncos (+4) // Lions (-4)
The line is too high to back the Lions. Detroit got lucky against the Saints because Bruce Irvin had a dirty play that knocked out Derek Carr. If not for that play, New Orleans would have won the game, which means Detroit would be on a 3-game losing streak. Denver covers.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: Denver Broncos
Houston Texans vs. Tennessee Titans
- When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: Nissan Stadium, Nashville, TN
- NFL Odds: Texans (+2.5) // Titans (-2.5)
Will Levis rallied the Titans to a Monday night win over the Dolphins. Levis has the look of a legit starter in the NFL. The Texans will be in trouble if C.J. Stroud misses this game. Right now, C.J. is questionable. Titans look like a solid play… for now.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: Tennessee Titans
New York Jets vs. Miami Dolphins
- When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: Hard Rock Stadium, Miami Gardens, FL
- NFL Odds: Jets (+6.5) // Dolphins (-6.5)
The Jets allow 167.2 passing yards per game, ranking second in the league. NYJ does allow a lot of rushing yards, but the Dolphins mix it up. Not only that, but Zach Wilson played great in the Jets’ last. NYJ scores the ATS victory.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: New York Jets
Chicago Bears vs. Cleveland Browns
- When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: Cleveland Browns Stadium, Cleveland, OH
- NFL Odds: Bears (+6.5) // Cleveland (-6.5)
Cleveland’s defense should have no trouble containing Justin Fields, D.J. Moore, and the rest of the Bears’ offense. When Cleveland has the ball, Joe Flacco has played well as the starter. Browns cover a lower than expected spread.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: Cleveland Browns
Kansas City Chiefs vs. New England Patriots
- When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: Gillette Stadium, Foxborough, MA
- NFL Odds: Chiefs (-9.5) // Patriots (+9.5)
Kansas City must move on quickly. Emotions were high in KC’s home loss to Buffalo after a non-offside call on Von Miller and the offside call on Kadarius Toney.
If the Chiefs don’t move on fast enough, they could lose another game straight up. Bailey Zappe played well in the Patriots’ last, and KC has lost 3-of-4.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: New England Patriots
Atlanta Falcons vs. Carolina Panthers
- When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: Bank of America Stadium, Charlotte, NC
- NFL Odds: Falcons (-3) // Panthers (+3)
After a 2-game winning streak, the Atlanta Falcons lost to the rial Tampa Bay Buccaneers at home in their last. The Bucs are a much better team than the Panthers, but Carolina has played well at times. Eh, who are we kidding? The ATL rolls.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: Atlanta Falcons
New York Giants vs. New Orleans Saints
- When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: Caesars Superdome, New Orleans, LA
- NFL Odds: Giants (+6) // Saints (-6)
It’s impossible to bet against Tommy DeVito and the Giants. Sure, the Saints looked great beating up the Panthers. But this is the G-Men and Tommy D.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: New York Giants
Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Green Bay Packers
- When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: Lambeau Field, Green Bay, WI
- NFL Odds: Buccaneers (+3) // Green Bay (-3)
It’s impossible to bet against Tommy DeVito and the Giants. Sure, the Saints looked great beating up the Panthers. But this is the G-Men and Tommy D.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Washington Commanders vs. L.A. Rams
- When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023. 4:05pm EST.
- Where: SoFi Stadium, Inglewood, CA
- NFL Odds: Commanders (+6.5) // Rams (-6.5)
The Commanders are complete disaster. D.C. is 1-6 straight up in their last 7 games. Washington will struggle from the outset keeping Matthew Stafford and his mates from scoring touchdowns. The Commanders will also find it difficult to keep Sam Howell’s jersey clean.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
San Francisco 49ers vs. Arizona Cardinals
- When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023. 4:05pm EST.
- Where: State Farm Stadium, Glendale, AZ
- NFL Odds: 49ers (-13.5) // Cardinals (+13.5)
It’s difficult to lay 13.5 on a road team, but stats say the Cardinals lose this by 30. Arizona ranks thirtieth in rushing yards allowed and points allowed per game. Christian McCaffrey and Deebo Samuel could have 100 yards rushing in this one.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: San Francisco 49ers
Dallas Cowboys vs. Buffalo Bills
- When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023. 4:25pm EST.
- Where: Highmark Stadium, Orchard Park, NY
- NFL Odds: Cowboys (+1.5) // Bills (-1.5)
Dallas is the play. Both teams are coming off emotional, important wins, but only one of the teams, the Cowboys, played a calm, collected, game. The Bills required luck to beat the Chiefs. Buffalo bounces.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: Dallas Cowboys
Baltimore Ravens vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
- When: Sunday, December 17th, 2023. 7:20pm EST.
- Where: Highmark Stadium, Orchard Park, NY
- NFL Odds: Ravens (+1.5) // Jaguars (-1.5)
The Jaguars are good enough to beat the Ravens. However, Jacksonville has left too much for Trevor Lawrence to do in recent games. The Jags’ D allowed the Bengals to score 34 in a loss and then gave up 31 to the Browns in a loss. On Sunday night, the Jags face an NFL MVP contender in QB Lamar Jackson.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: Baltimore Ravens
Philadelphia Eagles vs. Seattle Seahawks
- When: Monday, December 18th, 2023. 8:15pm EST.
- Where: Lumen Field, Seattle, WA
- NFL Odds: Eagles (-4) // Seahawks (+4)
After 2 straight losses to the 49ers and Cowboys, most expect Philadelphia to bounce back against the Seahawks. But before dumping on Jalen and his buds, it’s important to note that Philly just didn’t lose. The Niners and Boys blew out the Eagles. The Seahawks are tough to beat at home. The dog covers.
2023 NFL Week 15 Pick: Seattle Seahawks
