Doc Brown’s NFL Picks Against the Spread: Week 14

December 6, 2008 by Larry Brown • Comments

OK, so 2-1 last week was respectable enough even though the freaking Bears were in control and had one of the worst 14 point swings ever resulting in our only loss. Still, 22-17 on the year is enough to have you beating the house, so that will work for the time being. Time to keep this winning streak going and as always we’ll refer to betus.com for the NFL Lines.

Strong picks to come.

Dolphins pick ’em vs. Bills (in Toronto) – This isn’t exactly a home game for the Bills, so I give Miami the edge. I just think the Dolphins are the better all-around team and less-prone to making mistakes. Buffalo’s turnovers have been killing them lately. Could be another field goal game, and I’ll give the nod to Miami.

Seahawks +6.5 vs. Patriots – Seattle’s much more competitive at home, especially with Matt Hasselbeck at quarterback instead of Charlie Frye or Seneca Wallace. They’re not a great team and I’m not expecting them to win, but I think they’ll keep it at a one possession game. It’s not easy for any team to travel cross-country to a loud environment and have success.

Colts -13.5 vs. Bengals – I just cannot imagine a scenario in which the Bengals turn this into a reasonably close ballgame. Their offense stinks, their defense stinks, and the Colts are rolling. Indy will probably score in the 30s, and I highly doubt the Bengals make it into the 20s. It’s a thick line, but I don’t think you’ll have to sweat.
