NFL Week 13 New York Jets vs New England Patriots NFL Picks, Odds & Point Spread Picks

New York Jets @ New England Patriots Mon. Dec. 6th 2010 8:30pm EST

This NFL regular season has been interesting to say the least as it has been the first time in a long time that we have seen parity around the league with no dominant team running the table in either conference. Even though there haven’t been teams like the Indianapolis Colts or the New Orleans Saints last season this year, there still have been some teams playing some very good football this season like the New England Patriots and the New York Jets.

Coming into this NFL regular season, the New York Jets were considered to be Super Bowl title contenders and favored to come out on top in NFL picks with every passing week, but even though they were thought to dominate the AFC East division, Rex Ryan and company didn’t expect the New England Patriots to be playing at such a high level.

In their first meeting back in Week 2, the Jets just dominated Tom Brady and company and came out with the 28-14 victory. Not only did they get the win, but they also claimed first place in the AFC East division.

In Week 13, the Patriots are favored with a -3 point spread, but I believe the Jets should pull off the upset in what will almost certainly be the game of the week.

NFL Week 13 Cowboys vs Colts NFL Picks & Predictions

Dallas Cowboys @ Indianapolis Colts Sun. Dec. 5th 2010 4:15pm EST

The Dallas Cowboys came into this NFL regular season with high hopes of contending for a Super Bowl title as they seemed to have all the right pieces to the puzzle, especially on the offensive side of the football, and were to play host in the big game in February.

Unfortunately, things haven’t panned out they way they anticipated as they will be heading into Week 13 with a new head coach in Jason Garrett and a very disappointing 3-8 record. Even though America’s Team will almost certainly be on the outside looking in on the playoffs this season, the promotion of Garrett has seemed to be a step in the right direction as over the last three weeks the Cowboys have gotten back on track with two wins in three games.

Despite no longer being favored in NFL picks from week to week, the Dallas Cowboys should give Peyton Manning and company a run for their money in Week 13 as the Indianapolis Colts are struggling with tons of injuries on the offensive side of the football.

As of right now, the Colts are favored to come out on top with a -5 point spread, but I believe the Cowboys will pull off the upset.

Steelers vs  Ravens NFL Picks & Predictions Week 13

Pittsburgh Steelers @ Baltimore Ravens Sun. Dec. 5th 2010 8:20pm EST

The AFC North division is an extremely tough division to play in every single season and this year is no different as the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Baltimore Ravens are neck and neck with an 8-3 record coming into their Week 13 showdown.

Earlier in the season in Week 4, the Baltimore Ravens were able to edge out their hated division rivals with a 17-14 victory, but obviously that isn’t the kind of convincing victory that Joe Flacco and company were looking for when they headed into Heinz Field in Pittsburgh.

Since Week 4, the Baltimore Ravens have been arguably one of the best teams in the NFL as they have won five out of the last seven games and been favored in NFL picks with every passing week. They did hit some speed bumps in the form of the New England Patriots (Week 6, 23-20 OT) and Atlanta Falcons (26-21), but for the most part they have played very well on both sides of the football.

As of right now, the Baltimore Ravens have been given the advantage in this matchup with a -3 point spread. In my opinion, that is a solid spread as the Ravens should come out with the win.

NFL Week 12: Packers @ Falcons (NFL Picks)

Green Bay Packers @ Atlanta Falcons Sun. Nov. 28th 2010 1pm EST

The Green Bay Packers and the Atlanta Falcons have proved time and time again during this NFL regular season that they are amongst the elite in the NFC Conference, but this Sunday these two NFC Conference heavyweights will go head to head in Atlanta for the distinction as the best team in the conference.

Even though both of these teams are usually favored in NFL picks from week to week, in Week 12 the Atlanta Falcons will have the slight edge in this matchup with a -1.5 point spread.

In my opinion, either one of these teams have a good chance of coming out on top in this matchup as both squads are more than capable of playing extremely well on both sides of the football, but this time around I believe the Atlanta Falcons will win this game and cover the spread as they are as good as any team in the league on their home field.

This game without a doubt has the potential to be the game of the week as neither team will be backing down, but in the Matt Ryan and company will get the win.

NFL Week 12: Patriots @ Lions NFL Picks

New England Patriots @ Detroit Lions Thurs. Nov. 25th 2010 12:30pm EST

Coming into this NFL regular season, the New England Patriots were thought to be a prominent NFL franchise in the middle of an identity crisis and in for a long season as they had to compete with Super Bowl title contending New York Jets.

Not only did they have to contend with arguably one of the best teams in the league in the Jets within their division (AFC East), but head coach Bill Belichick also had to deal with the fact that he had a very young and inexperienced defense.

Even though the defense has been streaky at times this season, they have played just good enough in the first half of the season to keep the New England Patriots favored in NFL picks week in and week out.

After their impressive win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 10, the New England Patriots officially became a legitimate Super Bowl title contender and they will look to keep this good thing going as they will head to Detroit to take on the up and coming Lions on Thanksgiving Day.

NFL Week 12: Saints @ Cowboys (NFL Picks)

New Orleans Saints @ Dallas Cowboys Thurs. Nov. 25th 2010 4:15pm EST

The defending Super Bowl champion New Orleans Saints came into this NFL regular season with their heads held high and confident that they could pull off a repeat performance of last year, but little did they know the kind of competition they would face throughout this season and as a result are trying to battle their way back into the top spot in the NFC South division.

Fortunately, Drew Brees and company have played extremely well as of late and are starting to look like Super Bowl title contenders once again as they are being favored in NFL picks every single week, but on Thanksgiving Day they will have their work cut out for them in the form of the resurgent Dallas Cowboys.

Even though the Dallas Cowboys have been arguably one of the most disappointing teams of the season next to the Minnesota Vikings, the firing of head coach Wade Phillips and promotion of offensive coordinator Jason Garrett seems like it has been just what the doctor ordered for this struggling storied NFL franchise as they have won the last two games in convincing fashion.

This should be the best game on this holiday with a spectacular finish, but in the end the defending champs should come out on top.
