Last week's record: 8-7.
Record for the year: 118-82.
COLLEGE FOOTBALL PICKS
New Mexico Bowl. Arizona vs New Mexico. My pick: LOBOS. Arizona is favored by 9. But with this game being played close to home, and perhaps the Wildcats not being mentally ready to go for a "minor" bowl such as this, I say pick the upset.
Las Vegas Bowl. BYU vs Utah. My pick: UTES. I think Utah plays very sound football and had a good season. Look for them to win their 10th game today.
NFL PICKS
NY Jets at Dallas. My pick: JETS 24-10. The Jets have a good defense. And in any case, the Cowboys under Matt Cassel have shown--they just can't move the football.
Chicago at Minnesota. My pick: VIKINGS 24-14. Look for Adrian Peterson to have a good game; and when he runs well, the Vikings usually win.
Atlanta at Jacksonville. My pick: JAGUARS 30-20. Look for the Jags to continue to build off the momentum of last week's win. Meanwhile, the Falcons' slide continues.
Houston at Indianapolis. My pick: COLTS 20-17. With these two up and down teams, who knows? But the Colts play with a lot of confidence at home.
Carolina at NY Giants. My pick: PANTHERS 28-20. The Panthers seem to be peaking; why expect them to slow down now?
Tennessee at New England. My pick: PATRIOTS 30-10. The young Titans will get schooled by a veteran team that doesn't lose games like this (or let down).
Buffalo at Washington. My pick: BILLS 24-20. Again, with these inconsistent teams, who knows? But I suspect the Redskins' inconsistency will be what dominates here. Look for Tyrod Taylor to have a good game.
Kansas City at Baltimore. My pick: CHIEFS 28-13. The Chiefs are rolling. And the Ravens don't have Joe Flacco. End of story.
Cleveland at Seattle. My pick: SEAHAWKS 34-10. Look for the Seahawks to keep rolling; look for Johnny Manziel to get schooled.
Green Bay at Oakland. My pick: PACKERS 27-21. This actually should be an interesting battle; the Raiders had a big win last week vs Denver and are tough at home. But look for Aaron Rodgers to pull this one out late; the Pack looks improved with their head coach calling plays again.
Denver at Pittsburgh. My pick: STEELERS 27-17. Pittsburgh and Big Ben are rolling; and Brock Osweiler continues to come back down to earth.
Miami at San Diego. My pick: CHARGERS 26-23. Two struggling teams. But I just think Philip Rivers will find a way to say goodbye to the old stadium in San Diego with a win.
Cincinnati at San Francisco. My pick: BENGALS 20-10. The Bengals have enough weapons that A.J. McCarron, with a week of practice, should be able to do enough to beat the Niners.
Arizona at Philadelphia. My pick: CARDINALS 28-23. The Cardinals have played pretty consistently well...and Carson Palmer has especially played well.
Detroit at New Orlenas. My pick: SAINTS 27-20. The Saints can still move the ball, and are still playing hard--see their win last week in Tampa. The Lions have been very inconsistent.
