Week 10 NFL Picks

By Denny Basens, Sports Talk Philly staff writer 

Kansas City at Carolina

The Panthers look rejuvenated after their bye a couple of weeks ago. Their defense should be able to handle an average Kansas City attack at home.

Pick: Carolina 27, Kansas City 16

Houston at Jacksonville

The Jaguars can't put up points unless its garbage time. Houston, fresh off of the bye, should pick up a win on the road.

Pick: Houston 23, Jacksonville 17

Denver at New Orleans

The Saints are a much stronger team at home. Denver's defense is great, but struggling quarterback play has been catching up to them of late.

Pick: New Orleans 24, Denver 20

Los Angeles at New York

Both teams have been struggling of late, but the Rams just can't get anything at all going on offense. Jets win at home.

Pick: New York 16, Los Angeles 10

Atlanta at Philadelphia

Doug Pederson has been coaching very poorly over the last month. Julio Jones and Matt Ryan are matchup nightmares for the Eagles' defense. These factors spell the first home loss of the season for the Birds.

Pick: Atlanta 31, Philadelphia 20

Chicago at Tampa Bay

Extended rest for the Bucs sets up a perfect matchup at home for a Bears team that doesn't have the defensive pieces to matchup with talented Tampa weapons like Mike Evans.

Pick: Tampa Bay 28, Chicago 20

Green Bay at Tennessee

The Titans will be walking into a buzzsaw. Aaron Rodgers should be primed for a top performance after a bad letdown against the Colts.

Pick: Green Bay 34, Tennessee 24

Minnesota at Washington

The Vikings' offense has been exposed. The Redskins are fresh off of the bye, and should continue the losing streak for Sam Bradford and Minnesota.

Pick: Washington 20, Minnesota 10

Miami at San Diego

The emergence of Jay Ajayi has gone a long way to settling the Miami offense. However, a road trip out to San Diego to face a red-hot Charger offense is going to bring their winning streak to an end.

Pick: San Diego 31, Miami 20

San Francisco at Arizona

Another week, another blowout loss for Chip Kelly. Arizona rolls at home.

Pick: Arizona 38, San Francisco 10

Dallas at Pittsburgh

Dallas is overdue for a letdown loss. The Steelers should be primed for a bounce-back effort at home following last week's terrible showing against Baltimore.

Pick: Pittsburgh 27, Dallas 24

Seattle at New England

The Seahawks looked a little better last Monday, but a banged-up Russell Wilson won't outduel Tom Brady on the road.

Pick: New England 24, Seattle 21

Cincinnati at New York

The Bengals are fresh off of the bye, and are the more talented team. New York is on a winning streak, but hasn't beaten anyone impressive.

Pick: Cincinnati 23, New York 17
