NFL Week 15

Merry Christmas to everyone! Here are some free plays for your stocking! Enjoy!

Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Atlanta Falcons 1 PM

The Falcons have held teams to just 19.2 ppg over their last 6 games. This has helped the Under cash in 4 of their last 5 home games and 8 of their last 10 games overall. They have done so by holding opposing quarterbacks to under 250 yards in 5 of their last 6 despite still being the 30^th ranked defense against the pass. Shows how bad Dan Quinn really was. Matt Ryan has not been great lately on the offensive side of the ball and the Bucs should get pressure to keep this low scoring.

Final Score Prediction: Buccaneers 24 Falcons 19
Bet: Under 49.5

Seattle Seahawks @ Washington Football Team 1 PM

My notes say “Seahawks expose the Football Team.” I’m a little hesitant because it’s a west coast team playing on the east coast at 10AM PST. But it’s Dwayne Haskins vs Russell Wilson so I will make the exception. Alex Smith was good enough to play into the strengths of this team, but I’m not trusting Haskins here. Antonio Gibson is also set to miss this game. The Football Team has allowed just 14.3 ppg on their current 4 game winning streak, however, the quarterbacks they have played are Burrow/Finley, Dalton, Roethlisberger (still threw for 300+ yards), and Mullens. Wilson is mobile and dangerous. The Lions scored 30 on this team last month. I like the Hawks here.

Final Score Prediction: Seahawks 30 Football Team 17
Bet: SEA -6.5

*** Bonus Prop Bet

Another reason why I like the Seahawks this week is because their defense is playing so well. They have allowed 1 running back to go over 40 yards in the last 7 weeks, which puts the weight on Haskin’s shoulders. With Gibson out, McKissic is the starting running back, though I think Peyton Barber, who has seen 37 carries in the last 3 weeks, gets the bulk of the carries. McKissic will get his receiving yards, but not his rushing yards.

Bet: McKissic Under 36.5 Rushing Yards

Houston Texans @ Indianapolis Colts 1 PM
Detroit Lions @ Tennessee Titans 1 PM

How about a good ol’ fashion AFC South teaser. The Colts are 29-9 all time vs the Texans and have won 4 of the last 5 meetings. Plus, the Texans don’t have any receivers left. Colts stop Brandon Cooks, the Texans don’t have anything left. Colts win this one at home. The Titans are licking their chops right now. The Lions are 29^th against the run. Derick Henry needs 468 yards to get to 2,000 and he might just get that today. Stafford is banged up, but he will play (Now that he’s in, I like the Over again today). Titans win big as King Henry goes off.

Final Score Prediction: Texans 20 Colts 31; Lions 20 Titans 41
Bet: IND -1/TEN -3
