NFL Best Bets for Week 15: Arses Picks 2010

Top 5 NFL Free Picks: Week 15 NFL Predictions

Just like Lucky Lester, I pushed in Week 14. It was the ultimate push, a tie record for the week and an actual push. Unlike Lucky, I’m okay with a push. I had the entertainment of rooting for my lotto ticket to come through, had some heart breaks and last minute saves, and ended up losing $10 for the week. That’s damn near the same amount of money it costs to wash your car, in quarters, at a self-serve car-wash. What is the world coming to? Luckily for me I live in Alaska, and if I washed my car my sponge would stick to the window, as would my hand, and I would die via moose. I plug my car in at night and it’s not an electric car, that’s how F’d my world is right now. So why not win some money, here’s what I like this week…

Starting Account Total: $1000
At Risk This Week: $500 to Win $475
Money Left: $1184 with $500 of that on the line
Total W/L Last Week: (2-2-1)
Season W/L Record – Individual Games: (37-28-4)

Get at me on TWITTER @AlaskanArse. Here’s a link to Week 1′s article if you need a little more explanation of the way I’m keeping track.

Here are Week 15′s picks and bets:

(All games this week are Bet $100 to WIN $95)

Cleveland Browns (+1.5) @ Cincinnati Bengals
Colt McCoy is back in leading the show, and that’s always a good bet to cover in my humble opinion. When you add in the lose-happy, blame-game Bengals to the fray, your odds skyrocket. The Browns are still anemic offensively, but they can do just enough to oust the Bungles.

Dallas Cowboys (-6) @ HOME VS Washington Redskins
The Redskins are bad. Dallas has, at the very least, been competitive against every team they’ve faced since JG took over as the head coach. I think Dallas can attack down the field a little more in this one, and Washington is bad everywhere, which makes most things easier. I like the Cowboys by a couple touchdowns.

Arizona Cardinals (+2.5) @ Carolina Panthers
Arizona is bad, Carolina is worse. I don’t specifically know how, except that the Cardinals can still make big plays on the football field. Carolina is just hoping they can run it into field goal position.

New Orleans Saints (+1.5) @ Baltimore Ravens
The Ravens don’t have enough offense to get the Saints – at least they don’t have enough consistency to break away from New Orleans. If it’s close, the nod has to go to Drew Brees and his gold-domed friends. Flacco is solid, but Brees is still Brees, and the Saints can make huge plays on both sides of the ball.

Atlanta Falcons (-6) @ Seattle Sehawks
Friends don’t let friends bet on the Seahawks. Friends try to convince friends to bet against the Seahawks. With one of the best teams in the NFL in town, that home field advantage can go right down the flusher. Through the air, on the ground, defensively, everywhere the Falcons are better.
