NFL Trivia, Saturday Night Football, Week 15 Picks

The festive period is definitely messing with my schedule, and with the Omicron variant sending cases rising everywhere it’s all feeling a bit eerily familiar. There were meant to be two games this Saturday but now we are left with a single high quality matchup.

Patriots @ Colts (-2.5)

This should be a great game, but it feels like the Colts will have problems because they have a very effective formula, but it’s hard to trust Carson Wentz in the passing game, and with that kind of weakness to scheme around you would expect Belichick to have a defence ready to make the Colts rely on Wentz throwing the ball. I could be wrong, as Frank Reich is a coach I really admire, but I whilst I think it will be competitive, I like the Patriots in this one.

NFL, Saturday Night Football, Week 15 Picks

Well after a disastrous Thursday night pick where I failed to foresee that Brock Osweiler would come in and play really well, we move to the two Saturday night games.

Bears @ Lions (-5.5)

I am tempted by the points in this one with the Chicago Bears coming off a very good looking win against the Bengals last week. However, I’m not sure how much was the Bears good play and how much was an injured Bengals team coming off a tough Monday night game that put a final nail in the coffin for their playoff hopes. Meanwhile, the Detroit Lions did enough in Tampa Bay to win the game and with an outside shot at the playoffs I think they should win this one and hopefully cover this line.

Chargers @ Chiefs (+1.5)

This should be a really interesting game, and part of me definitely wants to take the points for the Chiefs as they have one of the better home advantages in the league. However, they have only won one game in their last five whilst the visiting LA Chargers have won four straight in the same period. More worrying for Chiefs fans is that their defence has been struggling and Chargers’ receiver Keenan Allen seems to be going from strength to strength with four consecutive one hundred yard games. I’ll be a little nervous about it, but I’m going to back the Chargers to win out in this one.
