Forecaster Frank's Picks: Week 10

Week 9 was a winning week as I went 7-7. I am 67-68-1 on the season with a .496 percentage.

Thursday 

Bal -7.5 (o/u 46.5)

Ravens 26 Dolphins 6

I have returned to New Jersey, so I will not be at Hard Rock Stadium on Thursday. It likely is for the best as the Dolphins' offensive line continues to be atrocious. The Ravens' defense is solid; they are coming off a big comeback and will win this game going away.

Sunday at 1

Dal -8.5 (o/u 55)

Cowboys 37 Falcons 17

It is hard to imagine that the Cowboys will deliver a second consecutive stinker at home. Look for the Cowboys to bounce back in a big way and beat Atlanta with ease.

Ind -10.5 (o/u 47.5)

Colts 34 Jaguars 10

The Jaguars had the upset of the season, as they beat the Bills in a game of field goals. The Colts, meanwhile, are charging on, winning four of their last five games.

NE -1.5 (o/u 45)

Patriots 28 Browns 17

The Patriots will continue their resurgence, as the Browns come into this game with several question marks surrounding players' health as several players are in COVID protocol. 

NYJ +13 (o/u 47.5)

Bills 24 Jets 13

The Bills have been shaky over the past two weeks, and the offense, which was clicking before their bye week, has gone into a slump. The Jets hope to have Mike White ready for the game and could keep it close. 

Det +8.5 (o/u 42.5)

Steelers 23 Lions 16

The Lions may be winless, but they have not been a bad team at getting the backdoor cover. The Steelers, meanwhile, have surged but have often struggled to cover the number.

Ten -3 (o/u 44)

Titans 27 Saints 16

The Titans have lost Derrick Henry but have shown they are more than a one-man team with their impressive win over the Rams. The Saints, meanwhile, could be in trouble as they need Trevor Siemian to play better than he did last week when they lost to the Falcons. 

TB -9.5 (o/u 51)

Buccaneers 31 Washington 17

Both of these teams lost before they had a bye last week. Expect a strong performance by Tom Brady, as Washington continues to watch their season fade with Taylor Heinicke. 

Sunday Late Games

Ari -10.5 (o/u 44.5)

Cardinals 30 Panthers 9

Sam Darnold is out, while Kyler Murray is confident that he can play for the Cardinals. Last week it was no Kyler, no problem as the Cardinals crushed the Niners.

LAC -3 (o/u 52.5)

Chargers 27 Vikings 20

The Chargers were able to get a late win in Philadelphia last week, while the Vikings had a collapse at home against the Ravens. Look for the Chargers to win at home, as the Vikings just can't seem to pull out these games. 

Den -3 (o/u 45)

Broncos 27 Eagles 13

The Broncos have excelled against the NFC East, scoring a stunning upset against the Cowboys last week. Look for them to complete the sweep with an easy win over the Eagles.

GB -3.5 (o/u 49)

Packers 27 Seahawks 17

Russell Wilson has been cleared to play for the Seahawks, Aaron Rodgers is expected to be available for the Packers. With both starters returning,  expect a good game as the Pack get back on track. 

Sunday Night

KC -2.5 (o/u 51.5)

Chiefs 31 Raiders 20

Eventually, the Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes are going to break their funk. The Raiders continue to make the wrong kind of news off the field. With the primetime lights bright, expect Mahomes and the Chiefs to hit the jackpot in Las Vegas. 

Monday Night

LAR -4 (o/u 49)

Rams 31 49ers 20

Matthew Stafford had a terrible week last week as the Rams were stunned by the Titans. The 49ers, meanwhile, stunk it up against the Cardinals. The Niners have struggled in divisional games the last two seasons; expect that trend to continue.
