The number 13 has an odd aura around it.
The NFL seems to be doing its part to add to that way of thinking with some of the matchups in Week 13.
If you have been following along with me, you know that I am hesitant to have road teams too high and we have a few different games that could make me forget that rule. Thank God the Jags are in LA this week!
Not only that, but there are a few matchups that make us say “Who knew?” as you’ll see as you read on.
So let’s not waste any more time!
Week 13 – HERE WE GO!!!!
(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)
14 – LOS ANGELES RAMS over Jacksonville – A home game against a Jaguars team that now also has to deal with Urban Meyer going back to college rumors is the cure for what ails the Rams.
13 – Tampa Bay over ATLANTA – So Cordarrelle Patterson is listed as a Safety for Atlanta – it’s like a baseball team down 15 in the 9th that brings the Left Fielder in to pitch…they’ve given up.
12 – Arizona over CHICAGO –The Cardinals being this high is contingent on Kyler and Hopkins suiting up. If they don’t, they still win but drop them down a few lines.
11 – Indianapolis over HOUSTON – I had faith in the Texans last week, that was my first mistake.
10 – KANSAS CITY over Denver – Who knew this game would have meaning towards the race for the AFC West crown?
9 – CINCINNATI over Los Angeles Chargers – The Bengals this season have been what the Chargers were supposed to be.
8 – Minnesota over DETROIT – I had a bold prediction early in the season that the Lions would have the worst record – but now…my BOLD PREDICTION is that THE LIONS WILL BECOME THE FIRST FRANCHISE WITH TWO WINLESS SEASONS.
7 – Dallas over NEW ORLEANS – Who knew that the Cowboys would need to win this game to keep the lock on the top of the division they used to have?
6 – MIAMI over New York Giants – The Dolphins defense is sure to keep Daniel Jones in his downward spiral this week.
5 – Philadelphia over NEW YORK JETS – Who knew these two teams played? … is what we will probably all be saying after this game ends.
4 – LAS VEGAS over Washington – The Raiders showed a little life last week. Maybe they can keep the last few seasons in the past and not fall apart in the second half of the season…but they still should be kept on a low line.
3 – BUFFALO over New England – Who knew the defending AFC runner ups would be on such a low number at home against a rookie quarterback and a team that is in rebuild mode?
2 – SEATTLE over San Francisco – Who knew it would be a tough decision to say the Seahawks would win this division matchup at home?
1 – PITTSBURGH over Baltimore – This just seems like one of those games the Steelers will win…no real scientific reasoning behind it.
