Week 14 NFL Picks #1 - Matchup
New Orleans Saints at -10.5
Atlanta Falcons

Week 14 NFL Picks #1 - Analysis
The Atlanta Falcons were without their starting quarterback Matt Ryan and starting tailback Michael Turner last week and they were blown away by the Eagles. This week Matt Ryan is listed as doubtful while Michael Turner is questionable. Even if one of them happened to play the game, they would be far from midseason form. Meanwhile, the New Orleans Saints had a scare last week against the Redskins when they almost lost their perfect season. Coach Sean Peyton has already said that his Saints want to go for the perfect season. Even a healthy Falcons team lost by 8 the first time around. This time, without their main players on offense they'll lose by a lot more.

Week 14 NFL Picks #1 - Prediction
New Orleans -10.5

Week 14 NFL Picks #2 - Matchup
San Diego Chargers at
Dallas Cowboys -3

Week 14 NFL Picks #2 - Analysis
The San Diego Chargers just keep winning games and scoring a lot of points. The Dallas secondary will have trouble handling the Chargers passing game which will be the difference in the game. San Diego is a 3 point underdog but I think they'll win straight up in Dallas.

Tony Romo and his Dallas Cowboys have a track record of losing games this time of the year.

Week 14 NFL Picks #2 - Prediction
San Diego +3

Week 14 NFL Picks #3 - Matchup
Green Bay Packers at -3
Chicago Bears

Week 14 NFL Picks #3 - Analysis
The Chicago Bears have struggled against teams with big play passing capabilities such as the Cardinals and Vikings. Aaron Rodgers and the Packers have had little to no problem passing the ball all year long and I don't see how the Bears are going to change that trend. Even with some injuries on defense, the Packers have managed to continue playing well.
