Week 15 NFL picks Patriots take down Col

If I learned one thing from Week 14, it's that I'm starting to think that nobody in Jacksonville wants Urban Meyer to be the coach of the Jaguars anymore and that includes Urban Meyer.This is actually good news for me, because that's one le s pick I'll have to worry about each week for the rest of the season since I'll definitely be blindly picking against the Jaguars from now on.(UPDATE: If you need proof that Urban Meyer wants out, just look at his postgame handshake from Sunday. I mean, I'm no body language expert, but if that facial expre sion doesn't scream 'I hate my job,' I don't know what does. Cannot stop watching Urban Meyer soulle sly shake hands with Mike Vrabel and just sort of wander off with a blank look on his face Will Brinson (@WillBrinson) I'll be honest, I haven't seen anyone walk around with that look on their face since my roommate got dumped by his girlfriend in college on the same day that his cat ran away. Fortunately for Meyer, he actually has a winnable game this week against the Texans. However, based on how Jacksonville's season has gone so far, he'll probably find a way to lose the game by seven touchdowns. Now that you know I'll be picking against the Jags, let's get to the rest of the Week Dwayne Bacon Jersey 15 picks before I spoil anymore of them. Actually, before we get to the picks, here's a quick reminder that you can check out the weekly picks from every . If you like clicking on things then I highly suggest , which I'm in charge of.

We spent 45 highly entertaining minutes talking about the totally bonkers game between the Rams and Cardinals. We also had a friendly debate about who's going to win the NFC West. If you want to listen, and you definitely should, you can do that below. Alright, I really want to get my pick against the Jaguars on the record, so let's get this thing started.Thursday, 8:20 p.m. ET (Fox/NFL Network/Amazon) Latest Odds: Kansas City Chiefs -3 Chuma Okeke Jersey Over the past few weeks, the AFC West race has slowly turned into the football equivalent of an M. Night Shyamalan movie: I thought I knew what was going on, but then there was a twist, except the twist was that there were multiple twists.The first twist came in October when it looked like the Chiefs were going to be bad this year. After Week 7, Kansas City was sitting in last place with a record of 3-4 while the Raiders were on top of the AFC West with a 5-2 record. That seems like seven years ago. The second twist came from the Chargers, who decided they're not going to lose any games played during an odd week this year. In odd week games this season, the Chargers are 6-0 while averaging 33.67 points per game. In odd week games, the Chargers basically turn into the 1985 Bears, except with a more talented quarterback. Fittingly, one of their biggest odd week wins came in Week 3 when they beat the Chiefs 30-24. However, that was back when we all thought the Chiefs were bad.The third twist came when the Chiefs rebounded from their 3-4 start to win six straight games and the twist there isn't even that they Jordan Bone Jersey rebounded, it's how they did it: The Chiefs have won six straight games due to their defensive play.In their first seven games, the defense gave up 29 points per game, but during their six-game winning streak, that number is down to 10.9 points per game. Basically, the Chiefs defense has been destroying everyone and when you throw in the fact that there's a 99.9% chance the Chargers are going to be mi sing their starting left tackle on Thursday, that feels like a monstrous advantage for Kansas City. LT Rashawn Slater is being placed on COVID-19 list. Daniel Popper (@danielrpopper) During , I picked the Chiefs to win the AFC West and I'm going to stand by my pick, because as we all know, if you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything. Did I steal that quote from someone on the internet who probably stole it from someone else? Yes. "You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything." Miranda Lambert (@mirandalambert) I can't believe I'm going to do it, but I'm going to pick against the one team this year that hasn't lost an Khem Birch Jersey odd week game and I'm doing it in an odd week. I already regret it.The pick: Chiefs 34-27 over Chargers Saturday, 8:15 p.m. ET (NFL Network) Latest Odds: Indianapolis Colts -1 The date of this game is NOT a typo, Saturday football is back! Over the next two weeks, we're going to be getting multiple Saturday games with two being played in both Week 15 and Week 16. Normally, my favorite thing to do on Saturdays during the NFL season is to buy things I don't need at Target. However, I'm going to have to put those plans on hold this week, because we have football to watch.The fact that this game is being played on a Saturday must have thrown off the oddsmakers because they've made New England THE UNDERDOG. It's also po sible they started pounding their Christmas wine a little early, because that's the only way to explain why THE TOP SEED in the AFC could po sibly be an underdog. I mean, it doesn't make any sense. Actually, now that I'm thinking about it some more, the point spread does make some sense. I have no idea what's going on with the point spread and that's exactly what they want in Vegas: People who have no idea what's going on. The entire city was built on confused gamblers having no idea which team to bet on. I might be confused about the point spread, but I'm not confused about who I'm going to pick. I'm 11-2 picking Colts games this year, which is tied for my best record picking any team and the reason I've done so well picking Colts games is because I ask myself one question: Will the Colts be able to run the ball on their opponent? Heading into Week 15, the Colts are 7-6 on the season, but here's the key part: Mo Bamba Jersey They're 7-0 when they rush for more than 125 yards in a game and 0-6 when they rush for le s than 125, so all you have to do is figure out whether they're going to rush for 125 yards against the Patriots. My gut says no.As we know, Bill Belichick tries to take away the thing you do best and the thing Indy does best is run the ball. Belichick is going to take away the run and make Carson Wentz beat him and based on what I've seen from Carson Wentz this season, I have a better chance of defusing a small bomb using a shot gla s than Wentz does of dominating a Belichick defense.Also, one other thing to keep in mind here is that Belichick hates the Colts. Before Deflategate, Belichick alr
