For the second week in a row, I failed to cross the .500 mark in my Top 10 picks for Scores & Stats (Here are my NFL week 14 results). Back-to-back 4-6 records has dialed up the pressure to get back to my winning ways.
NFL Week 15 Live Odds
Rising up to the challenge, I have come up with 10 more best bets for this Sunday’s round of NFL games.
Chicago Bears at Minnesota Vikings Picks
Best Bet: Minnesota -3
The Bears were one of my four ATS wins last week as they snapped a six-game SU losing streak. I have to go the other way this week with Chicago on the road. The Bears are just 3-8 ATS in their last 11 road games.
Detroit Lions at Tennessee Titans Picks
Best Bet: Tennessee -11.5
The Lions already fired their head coach and, more recently, lost their starting quarterback. Tennessee is in a tight battle for the AFC South title so this is no time to take its foot off the gas. The Titans are 4-2 ATS in their last six games.
Houston Texans at Indianapolis Colts Picks
Best Bet: OVER 52.5
The 4-9 (SU and ATS) Texans are in position to play the role of spoiler in this AFC South clash but I have no confidence they can cover with just seven points on the road. Look for Indianapolis to pile up the points to help take this total OVER.
Jacksonville Jaguars at Baltimore Ravens Picks
Best Bet: Jacksonville +13
The Jaguars have just one SU win but they have covered in six of 13 games. The Ravens left it all on the field in Cleveland on Monday night, so covering a large spread after such an emotional win could be a stretch.
NFL Week 15 Predictions
New England Patriots at Miami Dolphins Picks
Best Bet: Miami -2.5
The Patriots are still in the hunt for a playoff spot at 6-7 but Miami (8-5) has to win to keep its fading AFC East title hopes alive. As added motivation, it is time for payback considering all those past losses to New England over the years.
San Francisco 49ers at Dallas Cowboys Picks
Best Bet: Dallas +2.5
The 49ers have just one win (SU and ATS) in their last six outings. Dallas is coming off its most complete game of the year. At 4-9 SU (3-10 ATS), the Cowboys are still in the NFC East title race as added motivation for Sunday’s game.
Seattle Seahawks at Washington Football Team Picks
Best Bet: OVER 44.5
The 9-4 Seahawks need this game to maintain pace with the LA Rams atop the NFC West. Washington has won its last four games to take over first place in the NFC East. Each team should score enough points on Sunday to take this game OVER the total.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Atlanta Falcons Picks
Best Bet: OVER 50.5
The total has gone OVER in six of the last seven meetings between these two NFC South rivals in Atlanta. It has also gone OVER in seven of the last eight matchups overall. Points should not be a problem for either team this Sunday.
Philadelphia Eagles at Arizona Cardinals Picks
Best Bet: Philadelphia +6.5
The Eagles are coming off a huge upset in New Orleans behind Jalen Hurts as the new starting quarterback. At 4-8-1 SU (5-8 ATS), Philly is still in the race for the NFC East title. Arizona has dropped four of its last six games SU.
Cleveland Browns at New York Giants Picks
Best Bet: Cleveland -3.5
The Browns are playing on a short week coming off a tough loss. This will be a great test to see how far Cleveland has come this season at 9-4 SU. New York showed a spark in its recent four- game SU winning streak but it received a dose of reality in last Sunday’s lopsided loss to Arizona.
