The NFL Wild Card Round takes place this weekend – the matchups are as juicy as can be. Injuries could play a huge part in this weekend’s action – Drew Stanton, Le’Veon Bell and TY Hilton are all question marks for their respective teams.
Another insane season of NFL football is in the books – the playoff matches are set and lockers are being cleaned out as we speak. The Seahawks end the regular season looking like the best team by far, the Cowboys are scary and the Patriots look like the team to beat in the AFC.
Week 17 of the NFL season is one in which bettors have a great opportunity to win one over on the books. With certain teams putting in a full effort, others a half effort, and others yet not placing much stock on their regular-season finale, bettors that pay close attention to the motivation each team brings to their Week 17 matchup have a chance to discover significant edges.
The final week of the 2014 NFL Regular Season is on tap this weekend – a ton is still on the line in a number of games! The NFC South Championship will be decided, the AFC North crown will be determined, and even the NFC North victor will be crowned – all in head-to-head matchups this weekend! It doesn’t get any better than that!
Another insane weekend of NFL football is in the books – The Eagles have been eliminated, the Steelers and Bengals have clinched playoff berths and the Colts and the Broncos laid an egg! The Seahawks staked their claim as the undeniable Super Bowl favorites and the Cowboys made a statement as well.
Week 15 of the NFL schedule was littered with unders, which is always a good sign for the books. Bettors will need to be sure to put in extra research for Week 16 to make some of that money back, and not get distracted by the bright lights that come with a Saturday matchup.
Another insane weekend of NFL football is in the books – what a strange set of games it was! Two teams clinched their divisions, a previously untouchable team looked simply average on the road and the defending champs have officially arrived as the team to beat in the NFC.
What a week it was in the NFL. The Packers lost, the Bears imploded and two teams clinched their respective divisions. Some bad teams were afforded the opportunity to hang around – heck even the Jaguars covered the spread last week!
Week 14 of the NFL schedule wasn’t full of a lot of surprises, but there was a backdoor cover or two, and the under was a fairly profitable endeavor. The 15th week on the NFL calendar figures to provide a little more excitement, which makes it that much more important for bettors to put in their research to find any possible edge on the books..
Playoff races are in full swing in the whacky NFL – there will be a ton on the line in most games in Week 15. With Week 14 in the books, it`s time to look forward to what’s on tap for this upcoming week, the odds that accompany those games and what should play out in each.
Week 14 of the NFL is finally over and what a week it was. The top dogs continue to separate themselves from the pack while some previously top teams rediscovered their winning ways and received a bump in the Rankings. Right now it looks like either the Packers or Seahawks will be in the Super Bowl – doesn’t it?

There are definitely some teams with something to say about that – who are they and where do they lay in the Week 15 edition of the Power Rankings? Let`s break it down.
1. Packers (10-3) Last Week: 1
The Packers have looked unstoppable offensively – Aaron Rodgers is in total control! Defense could be an issue for this team going forward but as long as they hold teams under 35 points they should continue to roll!
[dfads params=’groups=63753&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]
2. Patriots (10-3) Last Week: 2
The Pats continue to be absolutely remarkable after a loss – they haven’t lost two straight since 2012! This week it was the defense that was terrific in the win. Mr. Brady was OK too passing for over 300 yards. That makes 12 straight seasons of 10+ wins and they have Miami and the Jets up in the next two weeks.
3. Seahawks (9-4) Last Week: 5
The Seahawks defense has been absolutely insane – be afraid NFL – be very afraid! They gave up just 139 yards to the prolific Eagles offense and have surrendered – get this – 507 total yards and 20 points in their last three games combined! Russell Wilson threw for two scores and rushed for another in Week 14 – he seems in total control as well. The Hawks are peaking at the right time indeed!
4. Broncos (10-3) Last Week: 3
The Broncos beat Buffalo at home Sunday but slip because their win wasn`t all that inspiring. Peyton Manning failed to throw for a TD while throwing two picks. Still, with CJ Anderson running the way he is the Broncos are a dangerous team!
5. Colts (9-4) Last Week: 6
The Colts ran into a hot defense on Sunday but still posted the win thanks largely to their own hot defense. Sunday proved that when Andrew Luck and TY Hilton are on the same page this team is awfully tough to stop! Indy is a shaky top 5 but deserve a bump because of the character they showed Sunday.
6. Eagles (10-3) Last Week: 4
The Eagles still control their own fate in the NFC East – no shame in getting shut down by a terrific Seattle defense! Philadelphia`s defense was actually OK in the loss – at least some positive came from Sunday`s game. Dallas is on tap – we will know a whole lot more about this team at this time next week!
[dfads params=’groups=66501&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]
7. Lions (9-4) Last Week: 7
The Lions looked good in beating the Buccaneers on Sunday – Matt Stafford threw for over 300 yards and Megatron was… Megatron. The defense caused three turnovers as well. Detroit isn`t going away – they are well balanced and a bit of a nightmare to play against each and every week.
8. Cardinals (10-3) Last Week: 8
The Cardinals got back on the winning track Sunday defeating a good Chiefs team. 10 wins for this banged up team is insane! They still have some work to do in order to return to the “elite team conversation“ but Sunday`s turnover-less win was a good start.
9. Cowboys (9-4) Last Week: 9
The Cowboys bounced back from an ugly Thanksgiving loss and looked good against Chicago. One glaring weakness continues to rare its ugly head though – the defense hasn`t been great and now they face a prolific Eagles offense in Philadelphia. The good news is that the Boys look healthy on offense and DeMarco Murray continues to be dominant.
10. Ravens (8-5) Last Week:12
The Ravens went into Miami and beat a good Dolphins team on Sunday using stifling defense despite missing Haloti Ngata (suspension). They held the Fins to 249 yards and remain in the playoff hunt with the huge win.
11. Steelers (8-5) Last Week: 15
The Steelers marched into Cincinnati and did what they had to do – beat the team they have to catch. Le`Veon Bell is the most dominant player in the game right now and Antonio Brown and Martavis Bryant look like the most dangerous pass catching duo in the game. Pittsburgh is dangerous on both sides of the ball – almost worthy of a top 10 spot.
12. Chargers (8-5) Last Week: 11
The Chargers were run over by the Pats at home on Sunday – no shame in that. The defense looked great at times but Philip Rivers struggled against Bill Belichick`s schemes. They are still in good position for a Wild-Card spot which keeps them in the dirty dozen this week – barely!
