Finally a few wins on Turkey Day with my over pick on the Oakland/Dallas game and an underdog pick with the Oakland Raiders covering that very generous spread. So with 2 picks under my belt here are the rest of my picks for week 13 in the NFL.

My first best bet this week is on the NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS on the road giving the Houston Texans 7 1/2 points. Ya know I look at this spread and I think wow the Texans getting over a touchdown at home and I'm picking the other team unbelieveable what a difference a year makes as the Texans were the 10-1 going into week 13 last year. The Pats are off a big home comeback last week against Denver coming back and winning from a 24-0 halftime deficit, the best game hands down this year. So with that kind of momentum I just can't see how the deflated Texans will be able to muster enough energy to stop this Pats team.  So I am making New England this week a BEST BET.

My next best bet this week is on the BUFFALO BILLS a home game but it is being played in Toronto giving the Atlanta Falcons 3 points. Here is yet another game where the Bills are giving the Falcons points !! Last year at this time the Falcons were also 10-1 and here I am picking the Bills. The Falcons have also crashed and burned this year and actually have a worse record than the Bills at this point. The Bills are coming off a bye and in their last game crushed the Jets snapping a 3 game losing streak. I very much like the Bills here as I just feel the Falcons had their swan song last week giving the Saints all they could handle but still coming up short. So no stats here either just a really good team having a really bad year. I am making the Buffalo Bills this week a BEST BET.

My last best bet this week is on the SAN DIEGO CHARGERS at home giving the Cincinnati Bengals a point. Almost to the day a year ago the Bengals came into San Diego and defeated the Chargers 20-13, so if you don't know by now I love revenge matches and this is a game the Chargers can win and that's all they have to do is just win with only a 1 point spread. I give the nod to Rivers over Dalton as Dalton has been inconsistent all year while Rivers has kept his team in games and the comeback the Chargers had last week against KC on the road should be more than enough motivation to keep it going. So I am making the Chargers my last BEST BET.  

As for regular plays I like the Denver Broncos on the road against the Kansas City Chiefs to cover the 4 1/2 points, and I like the New York Jets at home to cover the 2 points against the Miami Dolphins.

I already have one underdog winner as the Raiders covered on Thanksgiving. My other underdog plays this week are the Arizona Cardinals on the road getting 3 points from the Philadelphia Eagles, and the Tampa Bay Bucs on the road getting a 7 1/2 points from the Carolina Panthers.

I already have one over/under winner as the Raiders/Cowboys went over on Thanksgiving. Other over/under plays for this week are - Chicago Bears/Minnesota Vikings over 49, and finally the  New England Patriots/Houston Texans over 47. 

Well that's it for this weekend and ...  

As always remember to bet with your head and not over it.
