Continue reading →: Oakland Raiders at San Diego Chargers: 2016 Week 15 NFL Pick
Oakland Raiders (10-3) at San Diego Chargers (5-8) The Raiders are 10-3, but are not nearly as good as their record suggests, as their record is largely the result of a 7-1 record in games decided by a touchdown or less and a league best +15 turnover margin. Turnover margins…

Los Angeles Rams (4-9) at Seattle Seahawks (8-4-1) The Rams finally parted ways with head coach Jeff Fisher after last week’s embarrassing 42-14 home loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Fisher did absolutely nothing to improve the team in his almost 5 years on the job, so it was a long…

Dallas Cowboys (11-1) at New York Giants (8-4) The Giants gave the Cowboys their only win of the season way back in week 1, but the Cowboys have very impressively ripped off 11 straight wins since then. They enter this game 2nd in first down rate differential, while the Giants…

Washington Redskins (6-5-1) at Philadelphia Eagles (5-7) The Eagles got blown out last week in Cincinnati and have been unimpressive offensively since losing stud right tackle Lane Johnson to suspension, but they still have a strong defense and they get their top-2 skill position players, wide receiver Jordan Matthews and…

Arizona Cardinals (5-6-1) at Miami Dolphins (7-5) The Dolphins were shockingly blown out in Baltimore last week, the Ravens’ biggest win by point total since 2009. That almost definitely figures to be the worst game of the Dolphins’ season when all is said and done. Besides last week, they’ve played…

New York Jets (3-9) at San Francisco 49ers (1-11) The Jets were embarrassed on national television in a 41-10 Monday Night Football home loss to the Indianapolis Colts last week. This might sound counterintuitive, but that puts them in a great spot this week, as teams are 92-54 ATS since…
