Minnesota Vikings vs Jacksonville Jaguars NFL Picks: The Vikings (5-5) are off a 19-13 loss on the road last week to Tampa Bay. They are as strong as any team in the league in the trenches, as indicated by their +1.4 net rushing average. Peterson ran for 85 yards on 19 carries through three quarters, but his bid for a fifth consecutive 100-yard game fell short when the Vikings ran just eight plays - none of them runs by the NFL's leading rusher - in the fourth quarter. The sports odds posted by the oddsmakers at Heroescasino.com currently list Jacksonville Jaguars -1 favorites to Minnesota Vikings heading into this matchup.

"Honestly, I thought the first half we did a pretty good job running the ball. But the second half, we didn't have too many opportunities to run," Peterson said. "It took us totally out of our game. I really think that was the difference."

The Jaguars (4-6) are off a home loss last week to Tennessee 24-14. QB David Garrard was 13/30 for 135 yards and 1 INT.  The Jaguars poured a lot into last week’s game and played great early but it will be a tough loss to bounce back from. This game will come down to the Jags stopping AP . They do that, hold him to under 120 total yards they should win easily. Minnesota QB Gus isnt the answer and they need to start looking for a replacement. The online sports betting odds at Heroescasino.com has the OVER/UNDER in this Minnesota Vikings vs Jacksonville Jaguars game is set at 41 points.

"They were definitely turning their dials up a little bit and we didn't match it," Garrard said. "That's unfortunate because we had a perfect opportunity. We have to do a lot better than that, especially when the game's on the line." 

NFL Picks: The Vikings are a total disappointment. No pass protection, too many penalties and a veteran QB that can't escape his own shadow. The Vikings have not had great success on the road, the running game should provide an edge in this game. The Jags have been underachieving , I don't trust them , but the Vikings on the road , I don't trust them either! I may have to flip a coin for my pool pick for this game! Over is 4-1-2 in Jaguars last 7 games after accumulating less than 150 yards passing in their previous game. Over is 5-1-2 in Jaguars last 8 games in November.

San Francisco 49ers vs Dallas Cowboys NFL Picks: The 49ers (3-7) are coming off a win last week beating St. Louis 35-16 at home. QB Hill threw two touchdown passes and Frank Gore rushed for another score during the Niners' runaway quarter. The 49ers are playing for respect, coach Mike Singletary's job and something to build on in the future. Gore rushed for 106 yards and two touchdowns, making several gritty runs in the first half as the Niners took advantage of Bulger's blunders to match the highest-scoring period in franchise history. The sports odds posted by the oddsmakers at Looselines.com currently list Dallas -10 favorites to San Francisco heading into this matchup.

"Don't be surprised when things like that happen," said Hill, who went 15-of-20 for 213 yards. "We do have the ability to play like that. You can't be surprised or caught off-guard by it. ... We have to enjoy this win. It's been a long time since we've had this feeling, but we can't approach tomorrow any differently than if we had lost."

The Cowboys (6-4) are off a road win last week beating Washington 14-10. QB Romo overcame a pair of first-half interceptions to complete 19 of 27 passes for 198 yards. Romo was rusty after being out a month. He obviously couldn't practice because of a broken finger. That's why his 1st INT happened. He threw it behind the WR. It was a bad throw no doubt. So what Romo only threw 1 TD. That plus Barber's TD were enough to get a win in hostile FedEx Field. Romo still had a better game than Jason Campbell, Phillip Rivers, David Garrard and Hasselbeck and they've been playing. Barber was definitely running with purpose in the game, possibly the best game of the season for him not necessarily stat wise. The defense might have won the game but Barber finished the Skins single-handedly. The online sports betting odds at Looselines.com has the OVER/UNDER in this San Francisco vs Dallas game is set at 47 points.

NFL Picks: These next two games are classic trap games, many of the Niners are playing for jobs next year, but these are the games the Cowboys not only have to win but do so convincingly. Next are two teams that Dallas should beat, but you can't just assume that: 49ers and Seattle. Dallas should be 8-4 when they face the Steelers in week 14. They'll finish the season 10-6. Their only losses left are against the Steelers and the Giants. Cowboys are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games in Week 12.

Philadelphia Eagles vs Baltimore Ravens NFL Predictions: The Eagles (5-4) are coming off a tie last week 13-13 with Cincinnati. QB McNabb fumbled and threw three interceptions in regulation Sunday. They were lucky just to get out with a tie the way he played. It's time to say goodbye to McNabb. Too many times he's done this to the Eagles. Yeah, he has big numbers but he's also been really bad the last couple of years when it counts the most. The Eagles needed this win for a lot of reasons. He lost this game and doesn't seem to think a thing about it. The sports odds posted by the oddsmakers at Looselines.com currently list Baltimore Ravens -1 favorites to Philadelphia Eagles heading into this matchup.

"I didn't know that," said McNabb, who played a leading role in keeping it tied. "I've never been part of a tie. I never even knew it was in the rule book. I was looking forward to getting the opportunity to get out there and try to drive to win the game. But unfortunately with the rules, we settled with a tie."

The Ravens (6-4) are coming off a blow out loss to N.Y. Giants 30-10. QB Joe Flacco was 20/33 for 164 yards, 1 TD and 2 INT's. I don't think the Ravens played at their best. Even still, it wasn't like the Giants were that superior. It was a game till that chump call against Rolle. If you wanna get on me for the refs calling that, then whatever, but if you watched the game you know that was the game changer. Running against the Ravens had been impossible for everyone else for the first nine games. No individual had rushed for 100 yards in any of the past 28 games against them. Ahmad Bradshaw almost got to 100 as he rushed for 96 uyards on 9 carries. The online sports betting odds at Looselines.com has the OVER/UNDER in this Philadelphia Eagles vs Baltimore Ravens game is set at 40 points.

NFL Predictions: Every Sunday, if your QB doesn't strike fear in his teammates, he is a bad leader. I just could not get over when Philly played the Giants two weeks ago.  McNabb is all smiles, while the clock is ticking away in the fourth quarter. He's got to realize that there are NO MORE CHANCES to pull out games in the end. How about some urgency in how you approach the game? I have a feeling the Ravens will come out swinging. The only problem on offence they lost 2 offensive linemen including there starting LT in the 1st Q vs the Giants. If they don't come back, they have 2 more rookies starting on offense. Under is 5-1 in Eagles last 6 games following a ATS loss. Eagles are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games in Week 12.
