Week 15 Computer Picks

Have I mentioned 16-6 in these outside the margin (more than three points different than Vegas) plays? For details about the Stat Power Index and to see how all the teams rank in each category, click on the Index button on the left.

On to Week 15 (real spread in parens):

Steelers by 10 over the Giants (+10)

Redskins by 1 over the Niners (+5 on Thursday, making it a computer pick)

Falcons by 3.5 over the Panthers (+4)

Bengals by 1 over the Bills (pick 'em)

Eagles by 10 over the Cowboys (+12.5)

Texans by 2 over the Bears (-1)

Vikings by 3 over the Lions (+3)

Chargers by 5 over the Browns (+10, but there are QB issues there that the computer ignores, so this doesn't seem like a value play to my eyes)

Jets by 5 over the Seahawks (+6)

Broncos by 3 over the Chiefs (-1.5; our first real computer pick)

Bucs by 10 over the Saints (+7.5)

Cardinals by 2.5 over the Rams (-3, now solidly a computer pick)

Packers by 3 over the Jaguars (+3.5)

Titans by 4 over the Raiders (-2.5 a computer pick, as the computer/SPI absolutely HATES the Raider)

Colts by 7 over the Ravens (+7.5)

Patriots by 7.5 over the Dolphins (+9.5)
