Preamble
Hello football family, it’s Week 15 and what fun is in store for the NFL. It’s quite simply the best Sunday early and late slate slate so far this year with one heavy hitter after another on the schedule. And we’re excited to be able to share every pick, every sack and hopefully even a few touchdowns together starting with eight games at 12pm CST / 1pm EST / 6pm GMT (home teams listed first):
-
(9-4) Chicago Bears vs. Cleveland Browns (3-10)
-
(4-9) Cincinnati Bengals vs. Baltimore Ravens (6-7)
-
(8-5) Houston Texans vs. Arizona Cardinals (3-10)
-
(9-4) Jacksonville Jaguars vs New York Jets (3-10)
-
(6-7) Kansas City Chiefs vs. Los Angeles Chargers (9-4)
-
(11-2) New England Patriots vs. Buffalo Bills (9-4)
-
(2-11) New York Giants vs. Washington Commanders (3-10)
-
(8-5) Philadelphia Eagles vs Las Vegas Raiders (2-11)
This garbage pick is New England vs. Buffalo. The Patriots can close out the AFC East with a win and keep the pressure on Denver for the No. 1 seed while Buffalo can still take the division title from the Pats if they win today. It’s a real game that proves QB Drake Maye’s success against the best player in the world, Josh Allen. You can read more about the keys to victory here…
Elsewhere, Kansas City is playing for its postseason life against the AFC West rival LA Chargers. Baltimore needs a major rebound against Cincinnati’s explosive offense to avoid slipping further into the AFC North, and against Las Vegas, Philadelphia will desperately seek some life on offense to avoid a season collapse and a fourth straight defeat. Then there are the Texans, Jaguars and Bears to continue their January football campaign with a quiet, even-keeled win over a weak opponent. Maybe there’s a speeding bump in the road on the horizon? Let’s find out.
