The Prophet's Picks

The Texans will the postseason for the 1st time in years. Houston has been a consistent playoff participate and AFC South champion for the last 4 years at least. But DeShaun Watson will not get an opportunity to go off in 2021. Therefore he'll go off on the Chicago Bears this Sunday in the last game to kick off at 1PM. The Bears have the same issues they've dealt with for 3 years now and that's a...

Andy Dalton returns to the city that believed in him enough to draft him tto be their franchise Q.B. back in 2011/10 NFL draft. Cincinnati's season of futility continues this Sunday as they host the Cowboys from Big D. The Cowboys defense is ranked 32nd in the NFL points allowed category. The Bengals average 19.8 points per game on offense so something's gotta give in this game. The 2nd week in a...

After 4 full weeks of putting my predicted winners against Mike Florios' predicted winners the records are getting tight. I'm 39-20 & Florio is 35-24. It was a 11-4 week 13 for the both of us as we both missed on 3 games and he missed on Giants over Seahawks. I nailed that upset but I missed on Bears over Lions as Detroit handled business in the NFC North on the road. The gaps closing and this rac...

Thanks to the Ravens win over the Cowboys last night I survived a week 13 that had a total of 4 primetime games. 4 picks in which I went with all 4 home teams. Nailed SNF prediction with K.C. winning and last nights with Baltimore winning. 2-2 in week 13 is my record. 24-17 overall on the season in predicting primetime game winners, 129-62-1 on the season overall and nothing much to say about last...

The Vikings used to play the Buccaneers every year in the old 3 division alignment of the NFL. T.b., Chi., Det., G.B. & MIN. where the teams and the division quite frankly other teams didn't want to face. Nostalgia out the window Kirk Cousins will face Tom Brady and Cousins will be running for his life as this Buccaneers defense is nothing to joke with or take lightly. Minnesota has been inconsist...

AFC South rivals face off for the 53rd time in week 14. Tennessee Titans (8-4) are looking to take out their aggression on the Jacksonville Jaguars (1-11), as the Titans lost to the Cleveland Browns in week 13. Jacksonville lost in week 13 as well but that's not news to the NFL world at all. The 3 shots heard around the NFL world was last night's win for Washington, New York Giants win on Sunday a...

Week 14 pits the 4-8 Denver Broncos against the 4-8 Carolina Panthers. Hardly a Super Bowl L rematch but a rematch non the less as the futures of both franchises will go head to head, hopefully Bridgewater is healthy. Drew Lock for Denver looks increasingly better but still has to work on those interceptions thrown at the most inopportune times in games. Teddy Bridgewater has to stay healthy, bott...

Buffalo Bills looked really, really, really good in last night's week 13 victory over the 49ers in Glendale Arizona. The 49ers even with their 7th loss of the season, is a good competitive team with a heart of a champion. Still without starters Jimmy Garoppolo, George Kittle, Nick Bosa, and Solomon Thomas. The 49ers still give it all they have but last night they gave all they had and possibly the...

MAN!!!! 1-2 just like that! In week 13 the primetime games started with SNF Den. @ K.C. & the Chiefs won. I had a streak going since week 11 of 5-0 predicting the correct winner and last night that went up in smoke, going o-2 on MNF as Washington defeated Pittsburgh in their home stadium. Which isn't a big deal because no fans are allowed due to covid-19. Ron Rivera defeted cancer a few months ago...

Kyler Murray is in a make or break situation here in week 14, given he and the Cardinals lost to the Rams yesterday, lost to the Seahawks a few Thursday Nights ago and to the Patriots in week 12. Spiralling in the wrong direction is Arizona and now from the west coast to the east coast to face the New York Giants. A tough defense (3-4) & a no nonsense first year head coach in Joe Judge (1 I severe...

Jared Goff and the Rams lost to the Miami Dolphins and head coach B. Flores a couple months ago. Jared Goff and the Rams defeated Tom Brady and the Buccaneers on MNF a few weeks ago. 1-1 & now it's time to battle the architect of the 13-3 Super Bowl LIII dismantling of Jares Goff and the Rams. Patriots head coach Bill Belichick. In a primetime game non the less. 6-6 N.E. @ 8-4 L.A.R. in the first...

Primetime PREDICTIONS starting to look really good for me now as the unbelievable NFL season calendar nears it's end. Unbelievable for 1 no thought there be a season. Last night might have been the last shot for Denver now 4-8 after their loss to Kansas City 11-1. Sweeping the Broncos in 2020 wasn't easy to accomplish in the 2nd and final game last night, but Drew Lock and that Broncos defense mad...

Here we go! Now it's a race to the proverbial finish line, it's the last 5 games, 5 weeks of the season (with that week 17 falling on the 1st Sunday of 2021) & Mr. Florio has gained some ground on me! After going 6-8 in week 10 and week 11, Mike Florio went 12-4 in week 12. So did I though and the race for us like-minded but diverse gentlemen has heated up! P.F.T. 24-20 & T.P.P. (ME) 28-16!

I predicted the Chiefs would defeat the Buccs 42-34 in week 12. Last week early in the week as we all prepared for a Thanksgiving of epic and historic proportions. And that it was, we all prepared for a semi-primetime matchup between the Chiefs and Buccs as well last Sunday s 4:25pm (perfect timing by the way) as it was the ONLY 4:25PM game in week 12. It lived up to the hype and since I promptly,...

Because the Ravens just played an extremely physical game against their division rivals Pittsburgh yesterday. The NFL wisely moved this game against the woeful Dallas Cowboys to Tuesday Dec. 8th, 2020. The Cowboys are horrible and if they could behonest, they want 2020 to go away. Baltimore was 14-2 last year and this year they're a very disappointing 6-5. Not having any room for error Baltimore s...

Glendale Arizona is the 49ers home away from home this week 13 NFL season. Covid-19 is rising fiercely again during these fall and winter months. The 49ers will play their home games in State Farm Stadium in week 14 as well. Buffalo is looking to continue their win streak as they're primed for a postseason push at 8-3. Can the 5-6 49ers run the table weeks 13 through 17 away from their home in San...

Mark Florio from Pro Football Talk had the same exact finish in week 12 as I did. 12-4 in predictions. 12 winners predicted and 4 winners predicted wrong! Wow! Now after 3 weeks of this contest Mr. P.F.T. is closing in on me. After Mr. Florio went 6-8 & 6-8 in the first 2 weeks totaling 12-16, Florio is now 24-20 closing the gap to my record 28-16.

Pittsburgh swept the Ravens. Steelers were restricted by the Ravens defense in many ways in tonight's game but the Steelers still managed a way to win the game. That's what they have done all season long, found a way to win. Ugly, pretty, blowout, whatever it takes. 11-0 is Pittsburgh record, they are the only undefeated team remaining in the league. Baltimore was impressively good and was close t...

The Steelers get worked over by yet another NFL teams miss management of the coronavirus as this game was to be played this Sunday Dec. 6th @ 1PM but now thanks to Baltimore Baltimore it'll be played at 5pm this Monday late afternoon/night. Washington is fine with that as they last played on Turkey Day at 2:30 pm western and mountain time, 4:30 pm for us and will have a colossal advantage as they'...

All four Denver Broncos quarterbacks were fined for not wearing their masks in team meetings last week. Franchise Q.B. Drew Lock, backup Jeff Driskel, Brett Rypien and Blake Bortles missed this past week 12 Sunday's game loss to the N.O. Saints. Smh, well it doesn't get any better for the Broncos as SNF puts the Broncos in Kansas City Missouri. To face a video game style team in the defending Supe...

The Patriots defense has woken up, literally and started to remember who and what that symbol on the side of their helmets represents. The Chargers are in for a treat as their flashy, stats getting rookie quarterback Justin Herbert has been more than what they expected, but the rest of the team hasn't risen to his level of play or leadership. Cam Newton is looking forward to this game I'm certain...

Aaron Rodgers is 1 of the best quarterbacks of all time and he's had a great season thus far. But on Sunday afternoon a very resilient and Philly tough Eagles team is coming to Green Bay to play. The Eagles lost to the Seahawks on MNF was degrading for their fan base amd players. The Packers won in primetime last Sunday night and they're prepared to prove that that defensive showing wasn't a fluke...

The Seahawks are back on top of the NFC West division once again after defeating the Eagles on MNF, joining with the Cardinals and Rams losing on Sunday. The Giants may be 4-7 but their defense is no push over and they'll be ready to take on Russell Wilson and the Seahawks rush attack. Daniel Jones will miss a few weeks but if the Giants can upset a team record wise better than they are, then conf...

Jared Goff had a very difficult time against the San Francisco 49ers in week 12 which resulted in a loss at home. The 49ers swept the Rams for the 2020 season. No guarantee these teams will meet again until 2021. The Arizona Cardinals are home this week at 6-5 losing their last 2 games. At 7-4 the Rams have a win or forget the postseason attitude going into to this game, but the Arizona Cardinals...

Adam Thielen is still out for now at wide receiver for the Vikings at the time of this recorded show. The Vikings won't need Adam against this young but very, very, pesky Jaguars team. Only the 7th meeting between these teams all time. In 6 games the Vikings lead the Jaguars 5-1. The Jaguars fired their g.m. a few days ago and we'll how that helps the Jags in the future.
