Week 14 NFL Predictions


Sunday, December 8th 12:00 PM CT

Indianapolis Colts 6-6 @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers 5-7

The Colts once 5-2 now have lost 4 of 5 and sitting on the outside looking in on the playoffs. While the Colts have struggled, Tampa Bay has begun to improve. Jameis Winston has done better with taking care of the football, which has led to back to back one sided victory for the Bucs. The Colts will be without TY Hilton amongst a few other key injuries will have the Colts lose their straight third game.

Colts 21 Buccaneers 23

Miami Dolphins 3-9 @ New York Jets 4-8

The Jets let two winless teams get their first win, one of those teams was the Dolphins. Miami just pulled off a big upset over the Eagles last week, and now traveling to New York, they have some confidence. The Jets lost to a winless Bengals team last week, now they hope to fix things. The Dolphins have played hard while the Jets look like a team ready for a new coach. Dolphins get the win.

Dolphins 20 Jets 17

San Francisco 49ers 10-2 @ New Orleans Saints 10-2

A candidate for game of the week and a possible NFC Championship preview, the 49ers must travel to another powerhouse. Last week they played the Ravens, this week it’s the Saints for control of the 1st seed in the NFC. The Saints should be able to pressure Jimmy G and his reaction to the pressure on the road will determine this game. I think the Saints are the better team and will do enough to win this week.

49ers 23 Saints 26


Sunday, December 8th 12:00 PM CT

Detroit Lions 3-8-1 @ Minnesota Vikings 8-4

The Vikings are setting up to have a pretty big game against the Packers in a few weeks, but first they must take care of business. What better way than to play a struggling Lions team in Minnesota? The Lions have not been good since losing Matt Stafford, now against a rested Vikings team, I think they lose big.

Lions 14 Vikings 31

Washington Redskins 3-9 @ Green Bay Packers 9-3

Washington picked up a nice win last week over the Panthers but going to Green Bay is a different beast. The Redskins have fought hard these past few weeks, I don’t expect a blowout, but I do expect a close game until the second half where Green Bay puts some distance in between them on the scoreboard.

Redskins 17 Packers 28


Sunday, December 8th 12:00 PM CT

Cincinnati Bengals 1-11 @ Cleveland Browns 5-7

The Bengals got their first win last week, but don’t expect that to carry over into this week in Cleveland. Cleveland took a devastating loss to Pittsburgh last week, now their playoff chances are back on life support. I expect them to win this week and keep their slim hopes alive.

Bengals 16 Browns 23


Sunday, December 8th 12:00 PM CT

Baltimore Ravens 10-2 @ Buffalo Bills 9-3

Another good game this week, Baltimore looks to extend their win streak to 9, while Buffalo looks to keep hushing up their national doubters. The Ravens traveling to Buffalo gives me cause to pause because they have played some tough teams on this win streak and you must wonder when they’ll slip up. The Bills got some respect last week beating a fluttering Cowboys team on Thanksgiving, but this is different playing the hottest team in the league with the possible MVP in Lamar Jackson. I have Baltimore winning their 9th straight, but it’ll be a physical smash mouth game that will take Baltimore’s best.

Ravens 26 Bills 21


Sunday, December 8th 12:00 PM CT

Carolina Panthers 5-7 @ Atlanta Falcons 3-9

The Panthers fired coach Ron Rivera this week after a loss to the Redskins. Now, they travel to play an Atlanta team that has been much better since their bye week. The Falcons lost to the Saints on Thanksgiving, but they seem to have found something and are still playing with energy, I think the Falcons win this week.

Panthers 20 Falcons 27


Sunday, December 8th 12:00 PM CT

Denver Broncos 4-8 @ Houston Texans 8-4

Drew Lock made his highly anticipated debut last week for the Broncos as the rookie got his first win, tossing two touchdowns and one interception. This week he makes his first road start in Houston against a hot Texans team who knocked off the Patriots last week. The Broncos have played with energy and as many players said last week, Lock brings energy to them. The Broncos will provide a fight for the Texans, but Houston is too talented and will get the victory.

Broncos 17 Texans 27


Sunday, December 8th 3:05 PM CT

Los Angeles Chargers 4-8 @ Jacksonville Jaguars 4-8

The Chargers and Jaguars have been two of the more disappointing teams this year. The Jaguars have lost four games by 17+ points, while the Chargers continue to lose games late. Phillip Rivers has been a turnover machine this year and it seems the Chargers may go in another direction this offseason. The Jaguars benched Nick Foles for Gardner Minshew last week, now both teams hope to close the year out strong. I think the Chargers get a win this week in Jacksonville.

Chargers 28 Jaguars 24


Sunday, December 8th 3:25 PM CT

Tennessee Titans 7-5 @ Oakland Raiders 6-6

The Raiders have been demolished two weeks in a row, and now hoping to keep up with the pack for the playoffs in the AFC. They need a win in this matchup against a Titans team, whose season turned around after making Ryan Tannehill at quarterback. The Titans are 5-1 since making the change and sit tied for the final playoff spot. The Raiders being back home this week will help, but I think the Titans pull it out to make their win streak four games.

Titans 23 Raiders 20



Sunday, December 8th 3:25 PM CT

Kansas City Chiefs 8-4 @ New England Patriots 10-2

A rematch of the AFC Championship, Patrick Mahomes vs Tom Brady, the Chiefs have been lost in the hype of the Ravens and the Patriots, but a win this week would put them back into the Super Bowl conversation. New England lost to Houston last week and now hope to bounce back at home, but with the struggles on the offensive end, can they keep up with the high-octane Chiefs offense? I don’t think so this week.

Chiefs 26 Patriots 23



Sunday, December 8th 3:25 PM CT

Pittsburgh Steelers 7-5 @ Arizona Cardinals 3-8-1

The job Mike Tomlin has done with this Steelers team doesn’t get talked about enough. To have them as the 6th seed in the AFC, with all the injuries, with the losses in the offseason, now look at them. The Steelers defense has been fantastic. The Cardinals have their quarterback in Kyler Murray, but they have a way to go at the other positions. The Steelers defense should make things difficult for Murray and the offense and improve to 8-5.

Steelers 21 Cardinals 18

Seattle Seahawks 10-2 @ Los Angeles Rams 7-5

The Seahawks sit tied for the NFC West lead with the 49ers.The Seahawks are also in the race for home field advantage throughout the playoffs therefore they can’t afford any slip ups. Russell Wilson a possible MVP candidate has led the Seahawks all season long. The Rams looked like themselves last week against the Cardinals, now they must bring that same performance into this week against the Seahawks. I know the Rams will put up a fight but Seattle will be prepared and get their 11th win of the season.

Seahawks 30 Rams 24


Monday, December 9th 7:15 PM CT on ESPN

New York Giants 2-10 @ Philadelphia Eagles 5-7

The Giants are starting Eli Manning this week after Daniel Jones suffered a high ankle sprain. The Eagles got upset on the road last week in Miami luckily for them Dallas’ struggles have led them to only be a half game back of the division lead. The Giants are headed for another top 5 pick and the Eagles should be able to take care of business this week. Emphasis on should!

Giants 13 Eagles 20
