Week 15: Two-Minute Drill

Despite a slow start, Aaron Rodgers and
the Packers are gaining confidence each week.
Stally: I've missed kickoff, so it's time to run a two-minute drill.  One sentence maximum per game.

Here are my picks in order of confidence points:

16 - @Atlanta over San Francisco

Stally: The Niners are playing some truly awful football, if you even want to call it that.

15 - @Seattle over Los Angeles

Stally: The Rams have looked terrible for several weeks, so I got this one right on Thursday.

14 - Green Bay over @Chicago

Stally: The Packers are a very confident group despite early season struggles.

13 - @Houston over Jacksonville

Stally: At 2-11, the Jaguars have become an easy team to pick against on a weekly basis.

12 - New England over @Denver

Stally: This isn't at all the same Broncos team that won the Super Bowl last year.

11 - @Buffalo over Cleveland

Stally: The Browns could put up a fight, but at 0-13, they're certainly not the pick.

10 - @Kansas City over Tennessee

Stally: The Chiefs are one of the league's best, but the Titans will pose an underrated challenge.

9 - @Dallas over Tampa Bay

Stally: See above and sub "Cowboys" for "Chiefs" and "Titans" for "Bucs."

8 - Miami over @New York Jets

Stally: The Dolphins don't play well in cold weather, but the Jets don't play well anywhere, and I got this one correct on Saturday night.

7 - Oakland over @San Diego

Stally: The Chargers have had a rough go with injuries and a tough division, and the Raiders won't make it any easier.

6 - Pittsburgh over @Cincinnati

Stally: This rivalry game is usually close and very bitter, but the Bengals just haven't been very good this season.

5 - @Balitmore over Philadelphia

Stally: The Eagles have lost four straight and the Ravens don't have the appearance of a slump buster.

4 - Detroit over @New York Giants

Stally: I predict a let down from the Giants after a big upset over Dallas last week.

3 - @Minnesota over Indianapolis

Stally: "Disappointing" is one way to describe a talented Colts team that has given away the paltry AFC South.

2 - Carolina over @Washington

Stally: The return of All-Pro captain Luke Kuechly for the Panthers will put them in an upset state of mind on Monday night.

1 - New Orleans over @Arizona

Stally: Both of these teams have disappointed expectation, but I like the way Drew Brees has played much more than Carson Palmer.
