Falcons 28 Buccaneers 20

I would advise you to keep away from this contest tomorrow. These two teams have combined to lose their last nine games, as they find themselves in the basement of the worst division in football. I am picking Atlanta simply because they have the better quarterback in Matt Ryan, but he could easily toss four picks and lose the game for the Falcons.

Broncos 31 Raiders 21

The Broncos are coming off an extremely embarrassing loss in New England. Peyton Manning just stunk up the joint at Gillette, and the Broncos have been knocked down from their perch at the top of the AFC. So they should obliterate Oakland, right? Well, I think there is a decent chance they struggle with the win-less Raiders. Derek Carr has played well in his first year in the NFL, and this just seems like a game where Oakland will rise up at home against a divisional opponent, and give them a tough game. But ultimately, Manning has too many weapons for them to overcome.

Cardinals 27 Rams 19

Fresh off his new contract extension, Carson Palmer has a huge day against the Rams, throwing for over 350 yards, and three touchdowns. Austin Davis keeps St. Louis in the game for a little while, but that ferocious blitzing defense of Arizona proves to be too much. Turnovers will decide this contest.

Seahawks 34 Giants 20

The New York Giants are not going up to Seattle with that offense of theirs and taking out the defending Super Bowl champions. Yes, the Seahawks have had some offensive troubles of their own, but they will be able to ride their defense and Marshawn Lynch to an easy home victory.

Packers 37 Bears 21

Green Bay’s defense is suspect, but Aaron Rodgers should have a field day against Chicago. Tom Brady absolutely obliterated them a few weeks ago, so expect Rodgers to do the same. Jay Cutler‘s wideouts will make some plays against a weak Packers’ secondary, but turnovers kill them once again. Aaron Rogers tosses four touchdowns in the rout.

Eagles 17 Panthers 16

Philly will win this game solely because of their defense. Mark Sanchez is a very bad quarterback, and even though Carolina’s defense has been suspect this year, Sanchez will find a way to make them look good. However the Eagles defense, which has struggled up until now with takeaways, comes up with four Carolina turnovers to net the win on Monday night.
