NFL Week 10: Picks, predictions and more

Houston Texans at Los Angeles Rams (-11.5)

This was going to be a great game until Deshaun Watson got hurt. Now, it’s going to be a bloodletting with the Rams (6-2) hammering Tom Savage and the Texan (3-5).

Pick: Los Angeles 41, Houston 17

New York Giants (-2.5) at San Francisco 49ers

This should be fun, right? The Giants (1-7) are terrible and the 49ers (0-9) are somewhat worse. Whoever loses should be sent to the CFL.

Pick: San Francisco 20, New York 19

Dallas Cowboys at Atlanta Falcons (-2.5)

This is the Falcons’ (4-4) last stand. Atlanta either wins this game or faces the reality that another playoff trip isn’t coming in 2017. The Cowboys (5-3) are playing like a true Super Bowl contender, and with Atlanta’s play this year, it’s tough to see Dallas losing.

Pick: Dallas 29, Atlanta 21

New England Patriots (-7.5) at Denver Broncos

Denver (3-5) could win this game, but can the offense do anything? The Patriots (6-2) are the better team, but Tom Brady has always played poorly in the Mile High City. This game should be tight, but it’s tough to take Brock Osweiler over Brady.

Pick: New England 18, Denver 13

Miami Dolphins at Carolina Panthers (-10)

Another Monday night game for the ages. The Panthers (6-3) and Dolphins (4-4) both have individual stars, but the quarterbacks are rancid.

Pick: Carolina 23, Miami 17

Last Week: 6-7
Season: 79-53
