Five fresh picks as the NFL hits the stretch run.
No matter who you are, nothing is easy in the NFL. That was on display in Week 14 with regard to the selections in this space, with a 1-4 record that easily could’ve finished 3-2 or even 4-1. Cleveland blew a 21-point lead, only to win by two points as a 2.5-point favorite. Buffalo lost as a 3.5-point underdog on a long touchdown in overtime. The first half under in Atlanta-Carolina broke on a pick-six that swung the total result. This stuff happens, to be sure, but the ball rolled in the wrong direction for us a week ago, and we’re always going to struggle during a week when favorites cover at an alarming rate. This time around, we’ll have five more selections but, before we dive into an interesting Week 15 slate, let’s take stock.
