NFL week 15

We'v come to week 15 in what has become a very interesting NFL season.  Many teams can secure trips to the playoffs this week.  In the AFC the division winners are pretty much set.  Some NFC divisions can be decided this weekend, the East and North are still very competitive and will go down to the wire.

Week 15: picks
This was a hard week to pick games, it's showdown Sunday with a bunch of good match ups on tap.
1)  The New Orleans Saints did not look good last week in their high scoring loss to the Giants, they turned the ball over and their special teams did not look good at all.  The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have surprised some people this year and are in contention for a Wild-card.  I'll take the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+3.5) over the New Orleans Saints in the Big Easy.  Tampa Bay Bucs +3.5 
2)  The Seattle Seahawks have been good and somewhat surprising behind rookie QB Russell Wilson, the Buffalo Bills have been an up and down team but more down as of late.  I'll take the Seattle Seahawks (-5.5) over the Buffalo Bills in Orchard Park.  Seattle Seahawks -5.5 
3)  The Denver Broncos travel to Baltimore to take on the Ravens, both are in the playoff race (Denver's in) I would say the Broncos are more complete.  I'll take the Denver Broncos (-3) over the Baltimore Ravens on the road.  Denver Broncos -3
4) The New York Jets got a win vs. the lowly Jaguars last week but now face a slightly better opponent in the Tennessee Titans on a week when they go back and forth on whether Tim Tebow is going to play.  I think the Jets are to disorganized against a formidable opponent,  I'll take the Tennessee Titans (-1.5) over the NY Jets at home.  Tennessee Titans -1.5
5)  The New York Giants looked good last week in David Wilson's coming out party, their defense did give up to many easy scores late.  Ahmad Bradshaw is going to sit out this week but if Wilson's the same guy it won't be a problem, the receiving core is ready to go as the team travels to Atlanta to take on the Falcons.  The Falcons are still one of the best teams in the league but have be a little pores of late.  I'll take the NY Giants (+1.5) on the road against the Atlanta Falcons.  NY Giants +1.5
