NFL Betting – Week 15 Picks Minnesota Vikings @ Carolina Panthers

CLICK HERE TO SEE MORE OF THESE NFL PICKS
Sports Betting Odds: Vikings -7
The Minnesota Vikings are among the best teams in the NFC this year and they’ll hope to keep on rolling as they put their show on national display on Sunday Night Football.
The Vikings have been rolling and have just two losses on the season. Meanwhile, they are facing a team that has had a very disappointing year as the Carolina Panthers are far off their preseason goals.
Regardless of where these teams are at this point, this is just a horrible matchup for the Panthers. The Panthers are a rush-oriented team and the Vikings run defense is among the best. The Vikings have the fourth-best rush defense in the NFL and have permitted a league-low three rushing touchdowns to this point. For the Panthers, their passing game has been extremely flaky all season long, which means they are going to have a very tough time winning this game.
The Vikings should have any problems winning and covering in this game as the Panthers have no pulse when they can’t run the football.
Internet Betting Picks: Vikings -7

kick off with the Indianapolis Colts versus the Jacksonville Jaguars on the NFL Network. OffshoreInsiders.com gives the official sports betting preview.
Because of questions about the playing time of key Colts players, the sportsbooks were hesitant to post the Colts-Jaguars point spread. However, 5 Dimes sportsbook has Indianapolis -2.5 but -130 with a total of 42.5.
The Colts come into the game a perfect 12-0 straight up and 9-4 to the number thanks a recent four-game Vegas betting line winning streak. They are a scary good 6-0 straight up and against the spread on the highway.
Jacksonville is 7-6 overall and 5-8 against the spread. They’ve been quite the Vegas runner at home going 5-2 straight up, yet just 2-5 to the number. Jacksonville enters the Thursday night football contest on a 2-7 point spread skid. They’ve gone under four straight.
Indianapolis still struggles to run the ball getting just 3.8 yards per rush against teams normally allowing 4.2. However they can pass, completing 68.1 percent of their passes against teams normally allowing 62.4 on 7.6 passing yards per attempt to 6.7. Overall they get 6.2 yards per play against teams normally allowing 5.6.
How long will Peyton Manning and company play? The week 15 NFL injuries and weather will track that answer.
The Jaguars are a solid team for those who saying winning is about running and stopping the run. Jacksonville gets 4.6 yards per rush against teams normally allowing 4.3, 6.7 yards per pass to 6.6 and 5.7 yards per play to 5.6.
On defense they allow 4.0 yards per play to teams normally getting 4.3, 7.0 yards per pass to 6.4 and 5.7 yards per play to 5.4.

NFL Betting – Week 15 Picks Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Seattle Seahawks

CLICK HERE TO SEE MORE OF THESE NFL PICKS
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Seattle Seahawks game isn’t exactly going to highlight the Week 15 card of games but it should generate some interest for sports bettors.
Both teams have been among the worst in the NFL but there is a stark difference between the two: the Seahawks are a veteran squad who has been riddled with injuries while the Buccaneers are a young team that is just bad.
While the Seahawks are the more talented team, there is the general concern that they might mail in their efforts. Last week in Houston, the Seahawks were destroyed by the Texans in a game that wasn’t close from the get-go. The Buccaneers are brutal, but if they can get themselves into this game early on, they may claw, fight and scratch for a win whereas Seattle may not care so much.

Don’t be surprised if that happens. The Seahawks have absolutely nothing to play for while the Bucs are still trying to get modest wins each week. It will be a tough road trip out West for Tampa Bay but if Seattle is disinterested, they might not only fail to cover but lose outright.
NFL Betting Picks: Tampa Bay +7

Sports Betting – Steelers at Packers NFL Odds

CLICK HERE TO SEE MORE OF THE NFL PICKS

The world of sports betting know that the Pittsburgh Steelers (6-7) are still a good football team. Maybe. After losingon the NFL Odds five games in a row it would be very easy for this team to throw in the towel. But with an outside shot of still making the playoffs expect this team to come out fighting against the Packers (9-4) in week 15.
Green Bay is very tough opponent and probably the best team in football that doesn’t lead its division. On offense Aaron Rodgers is a top five QB in the sports betting and the run game has proven surprisingly resilient. On defense the Pack got off to a slow start but it’s got its new schemes down pat and has been highly effective over the past month.
For the Steelers, nothing has been effective lately. The team hasn’t won a game since the first week of November. Worse still, it’s given up fourth quarter leads in almost all of its losses.
Still, this team is the defending world champ and favored in the NFL Odds by 1 point in this matchup. And the odds of a team with this talented of a roster losing six games in a row seems astronomical.
Big Ben should come out firing and the defense will do what it always does: stop the opponent but give up big plays over the top. The Packers will put some point on the board the Steelers will put up more. Pick the Steelers to win this sportbetting odds showdown in Pittsburgh in what should be one of the better games of the week.

Betting Odds – Dolphins at Titans NFL Odds

CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THESE NFL PICKS

NFL betting odds fans know that Tennessee (6-7) is one of the teams that nobody wants to play right now. Despite dropping a game to the Colts in recent weeks this team has 6-1 over the past two months and Vince Young has proven almost impossible to beat. Certainly the Dolphins (7-6), a team hoping to repeat as AFC East champion and grab a playoff spot, aren’t looking forward to this road NFL odds game.
With Young under center this offense has become much more effective in the NFL betting odds. This unit has been playing great ball control offense –something the Dolphins also do well- and scoring when they need too. Although Young’s passing stats are nothing to write home about he’s effective.
More than this, his presence in the lineup and his ability to scramble has opened the running lanes up for RB Chris Johnson who’s leading the NFL odds in rushing and averaging a freakish 6.0 yards per carry. Miami has a stout run defense and will make things difficult for Johnson but without nose tackle Jason Ferguson the unit isn’t quite as effective.
On offense the Dolphins have less talent than just about any team in the football odds yet somehow they get in the end zone. They have a terrible set of receivers an untested QB. The passing game is weak but RB Ricky Williams and the Wildcat is very strong. The teams are somewhat similar in this regard. Expect an ugly game in this matchup and expect Tennessee to win on its home field.
