Castro's Game Picks for NFL 2016, Week 13
Here we are, ladies and gentlemen, the fifth-to-last week of the 2016 National Football League season. The playoff pictures are really starting to shape up, and things are really starting to get crowded in some spots. As for my game picks, I had my best week of the season in Week 12, going 14-2. I know it is going to be difficult topping that, but you know that I will try. Especially since it has been a few years since I have had a perfect week of game picks. As always, my picks are in bold letters, and the home team is written on the right side of the match-up.
Dallas Cowboys 17-15 Minnesota Vikings: Yes, I genuinely chose the 'Boys to win. I didn't think it was going to be so close, though. At least I started the week with a correct pick.
Kansas City Chiefs will lose to the Atlanta Falcons.
Detroit Lions will pounce on the New Orleans Saints.
Los Angeles Rams will go down to the New England Patriots.
Denver Broncos will be upset by the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Houston Texans will be edged out by the Green Bay Packers.
Philadelphia Eagles will be outscored by the Cincinnati Bengals.
Miami Dolphins will swim by the Baltimore Ravens.
San Francisco 49ers will rush passed the Chicago Bears.
Buffalo Bills will lose to the Oakland Raiders.
New York Giants will be cut down by the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Washington Redskins will score enough to beat the Arizona Cardinals.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be shocked by the San Diego Chargers.
Carolina Panthers will be tamed by the Seattle Seahawks.
Monday Night: Indianapolis Colts will fall short to the New York Jets. (I'm basing this on Andrew Luck not starting. As of this publishing, he is still in concussion protocol.)
