Week 13 Computer Picks

(NOTE: WE'RE TAKING THE BROWNS-PATS OFF THE IMAGINARY BOARD HERE AT ROTOACTION.COM BECAUSE KELLY HOLCOMB IS OUT WITH BROKEN RIBS.)

So, far the computer is 10-4 when its line (based on the RotoAction Stat Power Index) is more than three points different than the Vegas line. Last week, the computer won with the Packers, Texans, Chargers and Panthers while losing with the Broncos and Giants. It's all documented on my staff picks at Rotowire.com, but we'll document it here from now on, too. Of course, I don't recommend actually betting based on these picks. This is just an exercise. Now on to the Week 13 Computer Picks (actual line in parenthesis)

Detroit (-6) by two over Arizona. (Well, no one says Denny has to keep the rookie QB in, right? Right?!?)

Tampa Bay (-1.5) by 3 over Atlanta

Miami (+3) pick 'em against Buffalo (not outside the margin)

Carolina (+1.5) by 3 over New Orleans (the second computer pick)

Baltimore (-7) by 7 over Cincy

Jets (NL) by 8 over Houston (I have a feeling this will be another pick when that line is set)

Minnesota (-7) by 4 over Chicago (close, but no cigar, thank God)

New England vs. Cleveland is off the board due to Holcomb's injury

St. Louis (-10.5) by 5.5 over San Fransisco (another computer pick as the SPI hates the Rams, for good reason)

Indy (-10.5) by 8.5 over Tennessee

San Diego (-3) by 3.5 over Denver

Kansas City (NL; Green's questionable) by 4 over Oakland

Philly (-6) by 4.5 over Green Bay

Redskins (-2) by 1.5 over Giants

Steelers (-3) by 6 over Jacksonville (close again but not enough)

Seattle (-7) by 7.5 over Dallas
