Here we are in the final 4 weeks of the NFL regular season and I for one can't believe how fast the football season comes and goes, but it is what it is. I did not have a good feeling on the Thursday game but I do like a few games this week. So here are the rest of my picks for week 14 in the NFL.

 

My first best bet this week is once again on the NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS at home giving the Cleveland Browns 10 1/2 points. The Pats are starting to peak and just at the right time of the year. They are catching a break this week as the Browns might not have a 1st, 2nd or even 3rd string quarterback starting and that is why the line has come out so late. But it does look like Campbell might go but how good will he be after suffering a concussion just a few weeks ago. This is also a revenge game for the Pats as the last time these 2 teams played Cleveland won by 20. New England has a lot to play for and for the Browns it's just finish out the season and hope that nobody else gets seriously hurt. So I am making New England this week my first BEST BET.

  

My next best bet this week is on the BALTIMORE RAVENS at home giving the Minnesota Vikings 7 points. I really don't like laying this many points with the Ravens because you just don't know what team is going to show up, but the Ravens are a very different team at home then they are on the road and their 5-1 record at home compared to their 1-5 record on the road prove that definitely. Also unless you live under a rock you know that the Vikings offense is Adrian Peterson but the Ravens rush defense ranks 6th in the NFL, this should be an interesting matchup, one I think Baltimore wins. Stop Peterson and you stop the Vikings to me it is as simple as that. I like the Ravens at home and I am making them my next BEST BET.

 

My last best bet this week is on the SAN DIEGO CHARGERS at home giving the New York Giants 3 points. It breaks my heart as a Giants fan to be picking this game but I also am very realistic and the Giants are a mere shadow of their former selves this year. The Chargers have never lost to the Giants since Eli became quarterback, which is ironic seeing Eli and Rivers swapped with Rivers going to San Diego and Eli going to the Giants. I really don't know what the Giants are playing for now but I'm guessing it is to at least end up 8-8 but believe it or not the Chargers still have a chance at the last wildcard along with about 5 other teams. Playing at home and still with a slim chance to make the playoffs I'm backing the Chargers here as my last BEST BET 

 

As for regular plays I like the Denver Broncos at home against the Tennessee Titans to cover the 12 points, and I like the Kansas City Chiefs on the road to cover the 3 points against the Washington Redskins.

 

My underdog plays this week are the Carolina Panthers on the road getting 3 points from the New Orleans Saints, and the Dallas Cowboys on the road getting a point from the Chicago Bears on Monday night.

  

My over/under plays for this week are - Kansas City Chiefs/Washington Redskins over 44 1/2, St. Louis Rams/Arizona Cardinals over 41 1/2 and finally the Buffalo Bills/Tampa Bay Bucs over 42 1/2. 

  

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

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