Broncos-Raiders and Week 10 Picks

This is a very important game for the Broncos and their organization. If they lose, then they will be 3-6 and almost have to run the table or go 6-1 down the stretch to make the playoffs. A win here and they are 4-5 and host Miami next week in a winnable game and at 5-5 they would have a shot to make a run. Also, we all know that they are a young team with a lot of injuries, but enough with the excuses. It is the NFL. There are no more excuses. Figure out a way to make it work and get a win. We need the young guys to step up and play big. We are done waiting for that to happen next week, next month, or next year. Take the next step as a team and organization, and take it now. As much as I think Denver can pull the upset, everytime I get excited about the Broncos, they let me down-just like last week. The Raiders run game will be too much for the depleted Broncos defensive line including Shelby Harris, who is out after testing positive for Covid-19. The Raiders will go to 6-3.

LAS VEGAS (-5) over Denver

Final Score: Raiders-28 Broncos-16

Now, onto the picks for Week 10....

Last Week's Record: 6-8

Overall Record (68-61-5)

(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)


DETROIT (-3) over Washington: The Lions rebound and get to 4-5 with a home win over the 2-6 Redskins.

CLEVELAND (-3) over Houston: The Browns coming off a bye week get to 6-3 with a big home win.

GREEN BAY (-12) over Jacksonville: The Packers go to 7-2 with an easy home win over the Jags.

Philadelphia (-3) over NY GIANTS: This game will go back and forth, but I think the Eagles will do enough to win the game late.

Tampa Bay (-6) over CAROLINA: The Bucs are coming off a blowout loss at home to the Saints last week, and I expect them to bounce back and take care of business on the road in Carolina.

LA Chargers (+3) over MIAMI: The Chargers have blown so many games this year and they keep finding a way to lose, but I think they win the game outright over the Dolphins in Miami.

ARIZONA (PICK) over Buffalo: Fun game in Arizona between Kyler Murray and Josh Allen. I think the Cards defense will make enough plays to stop the Bills and win the game.

LA RAMS (-1) over Seattle: Huge game in the NFC West. The 5-3 Rams take on the 6-2 Seahawks. I think the Rams will get the win over Seattle and create a tie atop the NFC West.

San Francisco (+10) over NEW ORLEANS: The Saints will win the game, but I think the Niners will find a way to cover. 

Cincinnati (+7) over PITTSBURGH: I think the Steelers will win the game but I would not be shocked if they lost and got upset by Joe Burrow and the Bengals. I think this game is close throughout.

NEW ENGLAND (+7) over Baltimore: I think the Ravens will win the game, but I think the Pats will somehow keep it close.

CHICAGO (+2) over Minnesota: The 5-4 Bears will rebound and knock off the 3-5 Vikings on Monday Night Football. The Bears need this game and they will get it.
