Colts @ Ravens, Falcons @ Panthers, Saints @ Titans NFL Free Picks

Indianapolis Colts (+16.5) @ Baltimore Ravens
As I mentioned in my newsletter, he Colts looked to catch fire late against the Patriots last week, and maybe Orlovsky can spark Indy to a win? Yes, that was a question mark. But, the bottom line is I’m taking Indy the rest of the season until they win a game – they have to win one… They don’t have to win this one for me to be victorious, just hold a mediocre offense in check to keep it within two touchdowns. Come on, Colts!

Atlanta Falcons (-2.5) @ Carolina Panthers
The Atlanta Falcons are a much better team than the Carolina Panthers – I hope everyone can see that, and in seeing that, have Atlanta as an easy pick on the road against their divisional foe. The Panthers have a lot of hype behind their names, but Cam Newton’s early success hasn’t translated into victories. He still has thrown more interceptions than touchdowns and the Panthers’ defense is absolutely suspect. Michael Turner and the Falcons should shred that defensive front, and when the Panthers commit to stopping the run, Roddy White, Julio Jones, Harry Douglas, and Tony Gonzalez will catch passes from Matt Ryan to make them pay. This should be an easy Falcons win.

New Orleans Saints (-3.5) @ Tennessee Titans
The Titans have put together some wins this season, and if the Texans fall under rookie T.J. Yates, Tennessee hopes to be in it to pick up the division crown. That being said, I don’t think Tennessee is nearly as good as they’ve played. I expect Drew Brees to play good on the road, even though he hasn’t been awesome away from New Orleans this season. Road favorite, not always the best idea, but I like this one just enough.
