Welcome to Week 15 of the 2019 NFL season! The holiday season is here and the playoff picture is into the final stretch. We’ve got three weeks of football remaining and plenty of this is going to come down to the wire. Even if we know all 12 playoff teams sooner rather than later, the seeding is likely to maneuver these final three weeks.
Last week, the Chiefs and Ravens clinched playoff berths, joining the Saints in the postseason field. The Ravens can clinch their division on Thursday with a win over the Jets, and could clinch as much as home field advantage if the Patriots and Chiefs both lose this weekend. Considering they’re facing the Bengals and Broncos, respectively, losing seems like a bit of a long shot.
We get a week with five teams laying more than a touchdown this weekend, with some matchups of good and truly awful teams. We’re bound to see at least one upset, but mayeb this is the weekend the favorites trounce their opponents.
I’m back once again with my weekly NFL picks. For Thursday I put together a complete list of straight up picks, and Sunday morning I’ll have my picks against the spread given how much can change between now and then. I’m taking the Ravens -14.5 at DraftKings Sportsbook today, and will have full write-ups later this morning.
If you’re in a pick ‘em contest, I’ve put together my complete list of Week 15 straight up picks. You can check out SB Nation’s full list of experts picking here, where I’m 118-90 heading into this week.
