Bet on It

By Dalton Del Don – Senior Writer

Like all good things, my prognosication superiority came to an abrupt end last week, with a season-worst 5-11 record. I actually liked last week’s slate, but it shouldn’t come as a surprise that it resulted in poor results. Most of the time, it’s the picks that make me ill that come through. Still, my overall season record stands at 96-87-9, and that was before my Thursday night Redskins winning pick. There have been six Thursday games this season, and every single time the favorite has covered. Onto the Week 14 picks:

Bears +3 at Redskins

Panthers +10.5 at Jaguars

Cowboys -11 at Lions

Dolphins +7 at Bills

Giants +3 at Eagles

Raiders +10.5 at Packers

Chargers pick ’em at Titans

Rams +7 at Bengals

Buccaneers -3 at Texans

Cardinals +7 at Seahawks

Vikings -8.5 at 49ers

Steelers +10.5 at Patriots

Browns -3.5 at Jets

Chiefs +7 at Broncos

Colts -9.5 at Ravens

Saints -4.5 at Falcons

Best Bet: Titans

Comments: Not exactly sure why the oddsmakers don’t view San Diego and Tennessee as equals, as the even line suggests the Chargers are the better team. Sure, they’ve outscored their opponents by a wider margin than the Titans have, but the Chargers play in the far easier division and have the same 7-5 record. SD is 2-4 on the road this season, while Tennessee is 4-2 at home. Back the Titans.
