NFL Week 10 Picks

In the wake of Tuesday's Presidential election, there has been a lot of negativity in this country. Even not taking into account the election, there is still a lot of negativity. So in this week's NFL picks, I will just say positive things, because nobody likes negativity. It'll be easier to do since the Browns already played this week.


Last Week: 11-2 (9-4 vs. Spread)
Overall: 78-53 (68-64 vs. Spread)

(The Ravens beat the Browns 28-7 on Thursday night)

(Home Team Listed Last)

Sunday
Packers 34, Titans 21 (1:00 PM, FOX)
Aaron Rodgers is just fine. After throwing 10 touchdown passes and four interceptions the first five games combined, he has thrown 10 touchdowns and one pick the last three weeks. He and the Pack will face a Titans team that is third in the NFL in rushing.
Vikings 24, Redskins 28 (1:00 PM, FOX)
Despite dropping three in a row, Minnesota still owns the best scoring defense in the NFL, and still leads the NFC North. After a first week blowout loss to Pittsburgh, Washington is 4-2-1, with those two losses coming by a combined seven points.
Bears 21, Buccaneers 32 (1:00 PM, FOX)
Jay Cutler is back under center for the Bears, which means good things for Alshon Jeffery, who had his first touchdown catch of the season in a win over the Vikings last week. Tampa's Mike Evans leads all receivers in touchdowns with eight on the season.
Chiefs 24, Panthers 17 (1:00 PM, CBS)
The 6-2 Chiefs have won four in a row, and have only allowed 20 or more points twice (both wins). The Panthers have won two straight, and despite not having the best season thus far, they are still in the top ten in rushing yards as a team.
Falcons 35, Eagles 28 (1:00 PM, FOX)
Matt Ryan (who leads the NFL in passing yards) and the Falcons have the best offense in the league, and they currently lead the NFC South. The Eagles are 4-4, but all four of their losses have come by one possession.
Rams 21, Jets 24 (1:00 PM, FOX)
The L.A. Rams have one of the best defenses in the NFL, and they've come very close to winning in their last two games. Jets running back Matt Forte has shown he still has it so far this season, running for 634 yards and seven touchdowns.
Broncos 24, Saints 31 (1:00 PM, CBS)
Denver, unsurprisingly, has been one of the best defensive teams in the league this season. New Orleans, unsurprisingly, has been one of the best offensive teams in the league this season (and the top passing team).
Texans 27, Jaguars 16 (1:00 PM, CBS)
Houston continues to lead the AFC South (by over one game), largely thanks to their defense (even without J.J. Watt) and running game (namely Lamar Miller). The Jaguars have one of the coolest helmets in the NFL.
Dolphins 30, Chargers 33 (4:05 PM, CBS)
Jay Ajayi has been a revelation for the Dolphins. Here are his rushing yard totals the last three games (all wins): 204, 214, 111. Phillip Rivers (fourth in the NFL in passing yards) and Melvin Gordon (third in rushing yards) highlight one of the most prolific offenses in the league.
Cowboys 38, Steelers 31 (4:25 PM, FOX)
Dallas, behind rookie sensations Dak Prescott and Zeke Elliott, has been (along with New England) the best team in the league. Good news for the Steelers: they've activated tight end Ladarius Green from the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list, giving Big Ben another talented target.
49ers 14, Cardinals 32 (4:25 PM, FOX)
San Francisco running back Carlos Hyde is in the top ten in the league in rushing touchdowns despite missing two games. Arizona's defense has been (once again) lethal. The most points they've allowed in a game this season is 21.
Seahawks 28, Patriots 35 (8:30 PM, NBC)
This should be a great game. The Pats have rolled through most of the teams they've played (just two of their seven wins - the first two - have been by one score). Seattle's defense has once again been stifling this season.

Monday
Bengals 27, Giants 30 (8:30 PM, ESPN)
Andy Dalton is in the top ten in the league in both passing yards and passing touchdowns so far this season. The Giants have won three straight, and Odell Beckham Jr. has had four total touchdowns in those three games.
