What are the best bets for Week 12 of the 2014 NFL season?

Happy Sunday! After a Week 10 annihilation, the Week 11 slate in the NFL was slightly more kind to the world of handicapping, at least in this space. The positive rebound can be witnessed with our Week 11 selections, and with that positive momentum on the table, we are aiming for a return to the .500 mark (or better) if things fall into place for Week 12. On the bright side, the schedule of games is quite pleasing to the eye in general, and that lends itself to a fun-filled Sunday of action.

As always, “fade the public” is the general principle of this column, and if there is anything to indicate that the “sharper” investment is one direction, we will often be the first to pounce on it, even if it requires some ignorance to reality and public perception. Before we get to the picks, let’s look at where we stand for the season, including the previously referenced rebound:

  • Last week: 3-2
  • Season: 26-28-1

With that out of the way, let’s take a look at this week’s selections!
