NFL Week 14 early predictions
Packers (-6.5) vs Bears
The Bears knocked the Eagles in the teeth up and down the field on Black Friday, but let’s keep that in perspective.
Philadelphia, which has a solid defense, was a team I was all-in on fading ahead of that game, is still beating itself with poor offensive results.
The Packers, on the other hand, are a far better matchup here against the Bears.
Green Bay is far better against the run, allowing 3.9 yards per carry, fifth-best in the NFL, while the Eagles are ranked 22nd in the NFL in that category.
I am not expecting to get the Packers under a touchdown here around game time, at which point we could middle by taking the Bears +7.5 if at all possible.
The Packers should be able to stop the run better than the Eagles.
Jaguars +1.5 vs. Colts
Jacksonville doesn’t really allow teams to gash them with the run, which is step one to beating the Colts.
Indianapolis, which has lost three of its last four games, needs Taylor to play well to win.
In those last three losses, Taylor is averaging 3.21, 3.63, and 4.03 yards per carry, three of his five worst rushing performances of the season.
The Jaguars are allowed 3.9 YPC and are rated No. 9 in the NFL against the run according to DVOA.
Add in the reality that Daniel Jones is less than 100 percent, and the math would point to the Jaguars closing as favorites at home here.
Expect Jacksonville to close -1.5 with Indianapolis being the bet to lock in profits.
