NFL Week 10 Point Spread Picks

PLACE YOUR BETS!!! Week nine brought with it massive amounts of upsets in terms of the spread. Contests were either foiled in the final moments or just a complete letdown was seen from teams this past week. Still finishing one game below the .500 mark, we intend to get back on track this week to offset any losses that occurred. While we still hold a 13-game positive record this season, looking to run the table is always the goal. Follow us as we look to line your bank accounts with funds.

NFL WEEK 10 – Predictions (Projected odds makers @ Nov.12.2020 – 12:00PM EST) 
 

Thursday Nov.12
 
Indianapolis @ Tennessee PK
Thursday Night Football is upon us and the odds makers have seen the line move up and down. At the moment, this has been deemed as a pick-em contest as not much separates the two in terms of talent. The Titans will again try to force their hand with a strong run game while setting up the play action pass, but the Colts defense is one of the best in the league at stopping the run. They will have to get creative in hopes to find open lanes in this one.
 
The Colts have had their issues on offense overall so far this season, and Phillip Rivers will have to be much better down the stretch. Not turning the ball over and forming some new chemistry with his pass catchers will go a very long way in how this game shakes out. While we never like betting against the Titans at home, this defense is very strong and will give Ryan Tannehill a run for his money. However, we can’t move from the home team here – we’ll bite.
ADF: TEN covers the spread @ -0 IND 34 TEN 17 (L)
@SoJash: TEN covers the spread @ -0 IND 34 TEN 17 (L)
 
 
Sunday Nov.15
 
Houston @ Cleveland -3
With the Browns coming off the bye week and receiving great news that Nick Chubb will return to the field, they already have a leg up on the Texans. Baker Mayfield has been given the ok to return to practice after being locked down in Covid protocol, which is another positive sign for this club. The Browns do hold a good record and will have to play their best to get past this Houston club.
 
As for the Texans, not being able to displace a rookie passer last week with distinction is a concern, as utilizing the speed they possess is still not coming to complete fruition. David Johnson is likely to miss this contest with an injury which will promote Duke Johnson to the lead in the ground game. This is a very difficult test for both clubs as their identities are massively in question. With three points being the spread given, we’d feel comfortable to suggest it could be closer than that. We’ll gamble and stick with the under in this one.
ADF: CLE doesn’t cover the spread @ -3 HOU 7 CLE 10 (L)
@SoJash: CLE covers the spread @ -3 HOU 7 CLE 10 (W)
 

Washington @ Detroit -4.5
The Detroit Lions have been a league underachiever for so many years and this week could be no different. Hosting the Washington Football Team and their stout defensive line, Matthew Stafford will have to be much better overall this week if they intend to get past a club trying to find their footing. Kenny Golladay is likely to be missing in action again, creating a big void in the pass game.
 
Washington again witnessed their quarterback fall victim to another broken leg, which will promote Alex Smith back behind center. With Smith looking fearful and uncomfortable in the pocket, there is room to wonder if his continuous amounts of turnovers will cripple this team at the end. However, establishing the ground game will be important and could provide an upset victory for Washington. Even though we believe the Lions will win, Smith will keep it close.
ADF: DET doesn’t cover the spread @ -4.5 WAS 27 DET 30 (W)
@SoJash: DET doesn’t cover the spread @ -4.5 WAS 27 DET 30 (W)
 

Jacksonville @ Green Bay -13.5
Coming in relief for Gardner Minshew, Jake Luton played very well in his first action to keep the Jaguars in last weeks contest. Typically for any first start for a quarterback, the opposition doesn’t know how to attack and needed to adjust on the fly. This week taking travel to Green Bay, Luton will be in for a welcome to the NFL moment on more than one occasion. Trying to establish the run will help, but they will be greatly outmatched.
 
The Packers are coming off a blowout win verse the 49ers and had extra prep time with their past game being played on Thursday. The Packers have found their formula and when they hit on all cylinders, they are extremely difficult to stop. Pressure on defense to attack this rookie passer should be seen in bunches, while Aaron Rodgers picks apart the Jags defense. This spread should be covered rather easily.
ADF: GB covers the spread @ -13.5 JAX 20 GB 24 (L)
@SoJash: GB covers the spread @ -13.5 JAX 20 GB 24 (L)
 

Philadelphia -3.5 @ NY Giants
The Giants are better then their record indicates and have kept things close in most respects. Daniel Jones is again the greatest concern as his turnovers are the main reason this club is holding a negative record. Facing the Eagles for the second time in the past four weeks, they almost found a way to win the first time these two faced each other. If the Giants can hold onto the ball – they have a shot.
 
With that said, the Eagles are getting healthier by the day, as they get back Miles Sanders this week to lead from the backfield. With Jalen Reagor, Travis Fulgham and Alshon Jeffery all to be on the field at the same time – Philly is getting their horses back at the right time. Vegas is baiting everyone to side with the Giants in this one but we must agree to the spread.
ADF: PHI covers the spread @ -3.5 PHI 17 NYG 27 (L)
@SoJash: PHI covers the spread @ -3.5 PHI 17 NYG 27 (L)
 

Tampa Bay -5.5 @ Carolina
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are coming off an embarrassment verse the Saints last week, and believe us when we say that Tom Brady will be hyped for this showdown. Losing the tie-breaks to the Saints will have consequence later on, but displacing the Panthers will bring them back into the area they need to be in this division. Don’t kid yourself, this is a massive contest for the Bucs.
 
The Panthers attempted and gave their best effort last week against the Chiefs, but lost super star Christian McCaffrey for what could be multiple weeks again. The Panthers have faired well without CMC so far this season as the deep pass has opened the door to scoring points. Curtis Samuel has found a new level of play in this offense and should continue to be a focal point. However, Carolina will be in tough with Antonio Brown getting another week of work with Brady.
ADF: TB covers the spread @ -5.5 TB 46 CAR 23 (W)
@SoJash: TB covers the spread @ -5.5 TB 46 CAR 23 (W)
 

Denver @ Las Vegas -5
The Raiders are a team that is building and moving in the right direction and this week host the Denver Broncos in another important divisional contest. Derek Carr has played well and is exploiting the talents of Nelson Agholor on nearly a weekly basis. Running the ball to open the pass will be paramount to the Raiders success and Josh Jacobs should have a strong day.
 
Denver on the other hand continues to try and form that punch – but continue to get stifled and drop games. Drew Lock is a very good youthful passer but will have to improve overall if they intend to compete in this match. Using and finding their rookie Jerry Jeudy as the primary source should be the transition moving forward, which will allow them to matchup well in the contest. The Raiders should win, but Denver will do their best to upset the home club.
ADF: LVR doesn’t cover the spread @ -5 DEN 12 LVR 37 (L)
@SoJash: LVR doesn’t cover the spread @ -5 DEN 12 LVR 37 (L)
 

LA Chargers @ Miami -2.5
It is insane to believe the Miami Dolphins are actually competitive, but that is what has occurred. With Tua Tagovailoa looking much better in his second start – this Fins squad were able to displace the high-flying Arizona Cardinals last week. Defensively, the Dolphins have played much better the past couple weeks which has lifted the overall landscape. Returning home and being the favorite this week, we struggle to believe that notion.
 
The Chargers are a very good team that continues to letdown in the worst possible times. Not knowing how to close out games when they have the lead – everything should be placed squarely on the coach’s shoulders. Justin Herbert is a fabulous rookie passer and continues to show his growth each week. Even though the popular thread will be to take the Fins and their successful ways – the Chargers matchup well here and should get back on track.
ADF: MIA doesn’t cover the spread @ -2.5 LAC 21 MIA 29 (L)
@SoJash: MIA covers the spread @ -2.5  LAC 21 MIA 29 (W)
   

Buffalo @ Arizona PK
The Buffalo Bills shocked the betting public last week in taking down the Seattle Seahawks and Russell Wilson. The Bills defense has been weaker in terms of run defense for the entire season, and facing Kyler Murray and company will be another massive test. With how the Bills played Wilson last week – we fully expect a similar game plan to stop Murray.
 
Arizona is a team that was somewhat exposed by the Dolphins last week as pressure assisted them in creating opportunity. The Cardinals will have a plan to attack the Bills run game, which should open Murray to find lanes to gallop through when coverage locks down their receivers. Not having a clear favorite in this one – the odds makers are leaving it to us to just pick a team. Buffalo taking travel is a concern, but we’ll gamble on Josh Allen being near perfect again.
ADF: BUF covers the spread @ -0 BUF 30 ARZ 32 (L)
@SoJash: BUF covers the spread @ -0 BUF 30 ARZ 32 (L)
  

Seattle @ LA Rams -1.5
This is perhaps the biggest surprise of the week as the odds makers are placing the Hawks as the underdog for the first time this season. Russell Wilson and the Hawks are coming off that loss to Buffalo and is bait for us to believe they will again have a letdown. Maybe the thought process is that they have been figured out to the degree teams can now compete?
 
The Rams are coming off the bye and would’ve had an extra week of preparation which is another reason Vegas is placing this spread. While this should again be a very good matchup, Seattle will not sit back and allow another team to pick them apart. The positive for the Hawks is that they stay in their time zone which will help the situation. The Rams have their own issues and we truly believe the Hawks will come to play in this one.
ADF: LAR doesn’t cover the spread @ -1.5 SEA 16 LAR 23 (L)
@SoJash: LAR doesn’t cover the spread @ -1.5 SEA 16 LAR 23 (L)
 

San Francisco @ New Orleans -9.5
Injuries have been the biggest issue for the 49ers this season, and it doesn’t get any easier with who they face. Dropping their contest to the Packers last week and not being able to muster much of anything – that will again be the case verse the Saints. Simply not having the troops to compete will be the reason they lose again this week.
 
The Saints took down the Buccaneers while getting back Michael Thomas last week and will receive a gift of sorts to face the 49ers. This contest should act as a tune up to refine their skills as they begin to prep for the post season. Drew Brees will show no mercy and will displace the 49ers by the start of the second half.
ADF: NO covers the spread @ -9.5 SF 13 NO 27 (W)
@SoJash: NO covers the spread @ -9.5 SF 13 NO 27 (W)
 

Cincinnati @ Pittsburgh -7
The Bengals are coming off the bye week and will have to take on the Steelers and their powerful offense. Joe Burrow has played well and the hope is that they will have Joe Mixon back, but its still up in the air. The Bengals are mimicking the build of the Steelers as being heavy in wide receiver talent, will assist in competing in a shootout whenever they face each other. Behind Burrow, this team is never out of any game.
 
The Steelers had a massive letdown last week as the Cowboys should’ve been an easy win. Struggling to find that killer instinct, this could be another contest Pittsburgh has a tough time running away with it. The issue at hand as we sit today, is that Ben Roethlisberger is currently in Covid protocol and could be in danger to miss this match. Believing he’ll be ready to go, practice time will have been lost. To error on the side of caution – the Steelers should win, but Burrow could kill the spread late.
ADF: PIT doesn’t cover the spread @ -7 CIN 10 PIT 36 (L)
@SoJash: PIT doesn’t cover the spread @ -7 CIN 10 PIT 36 (L)
 

Baltimore -7 @ New England
The New England Patriots are in grave danger and will have a tough time to find their way back into the post season. Struggling to beat the Jets on Monday Night, Cam Newton isn’t the answer and is having a difficult go of it to find his receivers. The Pats defense isn’t what it was last season as well – making for a recipe for an early offseason.
 
The Ravens Lamar Jackson has admitted that opposing defenses are calling out their plays on the field, which is a clear reason the offense hasn’t been up to par. Figuring out what they do well and taking it away is something we feared at the start of the season. With that said, adjustments will be made and Jackson should have no trouble winning this contest with help from their terrific defense. This contest could get moved based on positive Covid tests – stay tuned for that.
ADF: BAL covers the spread @ -7 BAL 17 NE 23 (L)
@SoJash: BAL covers the spread @ -7 BAL 17 NE 23 (L)
 
 
Monday Nov.16
 
Minnesota -2.5 @ Chicago
Finishing off the week on Monday Night with an NFC North showdown – the Vikings believe their season is far from over and are riding the talents of Dalvin Cook. Looking sharp in that aspect, the pass game will eventually follow as Cook has been literally playing like a madden running back. The defense is the greatest issue on this team and will always force the offense to carry the load.
 
The Bears are a team that will have struggles and will only go as far as Nick Foles takes them. When he sputters, the offense as a whole goes backward. Not having the ability to dominate on the ground – Chicago has to manufacture points in very creative ways. Defense is the name of the game in Chicago and they should have no issue locking down the receivers – but Cook will again find holes to gain yards. This is the toughest game to predict on the weekend slate – so we’ll call a one-point winner for either side.
ADF: MIN doesn’t cover the spread @ -2.5 MIN 19 CHI 13 (L)
@SoJash: MIN covers the spread @ -2.5 MIN 19 CHI 13 (W)
