After going 3-0 this week with correct selections of the underdog 49ers on Monday Night and the Saturday Night upset special Dallas Cowboys to go along with our riding the favored Colts and Peyton Manning on Thursday, your team here at P4P, on Sunday, looks to extend our lead in the 30th Annual National Handicapper’s Bowl, as featured in Pro Football Weekly. After Dallas dismantled Drew Brees and the Saints in the SuperDome last night, Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts are the lone remaining unbeaten team this year, but with the way the Jags marched up and down the field on the Colts, don’t look for them to be the first team to go 19-0. Their time will come and they will go down.
Here are PICKS4PLAYERS BEST BETS for NFL week 15 .
Miami @ Tennessee (-5)
The Titans are playing better football lately but Miami is battling for a playoff spot and will give Tennessee all it can handle. We see this as more of a field goal game that should go down to the last possession.
OUR PICK: MIAMI +5
Tampa Bay @ Seattle (-6 1/2)
The Seahawks have been tough at home only losing once all year, while the Bucs have been a disaster on the road. The Bucs have also lost 3 of the last 4 by more than double digits and must travel to the cold Seattle weather. This one shouldn’t be close.
OUR PICK: SEATTLE -6 ½
Cincinnati @ San Diego (-7)
Too many points for the top NFL scoring defense. Cincy is giving up only 16 points per game and should keep the score within a touchdown. We figure this game could turn into a track meet in the second half so the over (43) also seems like a strong play.
OUR PICK: CINCINNATI +7
San Francisco @ Philadelphia (-9)
With Westbrook and Maclin both out for the Eagles, the 49ers should be able to slow down the Philadelphia passing attack. Cold weather should play a part in keeping the score low and creating a tight game to the wire.
OUR PICK: SAN FRANCISCO +9
Picks4Players remains hot!!! NFL Sunday Euro spectacular- You are looking LIVE at Wembley Stadium in London, England

Here are PICKS4PLAYERS BEST BETS for NFL week 7.
Because we feel confident with our recent success on our 5 STAR plays, we are giving you, our loyal followers FREE direct access to our 5 star selections in the Pro Football Weekly National Handicapper’s Bowl. We are currently in 2nd place in the overall standings and have correctly selected 5 out of 6 FIVE STAR games. Check it out at http://nhbowl.com/Games.php
This Sunday we have 2 games that we feel are 5 STAR worthy:
Chicago @ Cincinnati, 1pm EST
Current Line: Cincinnati -1
Last week Chicago moved the ball up and down the field against Atlanta only to have trouble in the red zone. We do not see that happening this week against a Cincinnati defense without 2 of its biggest stars. Jay Cutler will have a big day and Carson Palmer will struggle against that tough Bears defense. Cincinnati seem to play nothing but close games and have won the majority of them, but we look for that trend to stop today. The Bears finally have a quarterback that allows them to attack and keep attacking downfield. This game should be a fun to watch, high-scoring affair. Think about OVER 42 ½ if you want extra action on this one. This could be 21-17 after the first quarter.
Our Pick: Chicago +1
New England vs. Tampa Bay, 1pm EST (Wembley Stadium, London, England 7PM local time) Current Line: New England -14
We see no reason why New England, on a road trip to Olde England, won’t pick up right where it left off last week against a Tampa Bay team that is arguably the National Football League’s worst team. This one won’t be close. If you’ve made the trip over enjoy this Jolly good show and as always when traveling across the pond, if you need a safe place to protect your cash and valuables, hide them under the soap! For some reason, Euros never think to look there, ever.
Our Pick: New England -14
Other games we like on today’s limited NFL slate:
Atlanta +4 ½ @ Dallas: There are two NFL team fan bases that just can’t seem to figure out the difference between betting with your head and betting with your heart. Dallas fans along with the ridiculously passionate J.E.T.S. JETS, JETS, JETS fans will pour money into the system and on their squad to sway the line. This game is one of those games. I’m sorry people, but the wrong team is favored here. After destroying San Francisco on the road and outlasting a solid and explosive Bears team, the Falcons are going to toast the Cowboys today. Take the points if you want to play safe and if you are feeling lucky, then take the Falcons straight up.
Indianapolis –14 @ St. Louis Rams: Indianapolis will be inspired by the return of Bob Sanders, as if they needed inspiration. Manning is proving once again that he’s more than just Eli’s older brother. St. Louis will eventually turn things around for Coach Spags, but it won’t be today, this season, or anytime soon. Look for Indianapolis to run a one-sided, high scoring and well orchestrated scrimmage today against the Lambs.
TOTALs that we like:
San Francisco @ Houston 1 PM EST: OVER 44
Look for Michael Crabtree to get involved early and often today in his hometown and NFL debut with the 49ers. Stump the Schaub should also have a big day for the Texans. We see this as an easy OVER, maybe by half time.
NY JETS @ Oakland Raiders 4:05 PM EST: UNDER 34 ½:
It’s possible that the only touchdowns scored in this one will be on Defense and Special Teams. Look for both teams to blitz all day and create opportunities through this relentless pressure. This could be the most exciting UNDER in quite some time.
Arizona @ NY Giants 8:35 PM EST: OVER 46 ½
This should be a barnburner from the opening kick. Look for lots of scoring early and then a critical drive late by either team will seal the deal. We see a final of 31-28, one way or another.
