cake picks
Minnesota @ Arizona, Arizona by 8
Arizona covers. Seattle just destroyed Minnesota (IN Minnesota), they're playing a better team than Seattle this time, and they won't have home field.
Sunday, 12/13
San Diego @ Kansas City, Kansas City by 10
Kansas city does NOT cover. Kansas city is good but not great and that is a massive spread.
Washington @ Chicago, Chicago by 3.5
bears do not cover
Indianapolis @ Jacksonville, Indianapolis by 1
Indy covers
Seattle @ Baltimore, Seattle by 9
Seattle covers
Atlanta @ Carolina, Carolina by 7.5
Carolina covers. Atlanta just got done losing to the likes of Tampa bay, and the Panthers are undefeated.
Buffalo @ Philadelphia, Buffalo by 1.5
Eagles outright
San Francisco @ Cleveland, Cleveland by 1.5
Cleveland covers. I am in the minority opinion that playing Manziel is a good idea. He's out to prove he has improved drastically so he can keep his spot on the team. Beyond that, they'll have the homefield advantage and their opponents are not good at all this year.
Detroit @ St. Louis, St. Louis by 1
Pittsburgh @ Cincinnati, Cincinnati by 3
Cincinnati covers. Pittsburgh is a good team this year but Bengals are GREAT. And they also have home field advantage.
Tennessee @ N.Y. Jets, Jets by 7
Jets cover.
New Orleans @ Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay by 3.5
Tampa Bay covers.
Oakland @ Denver, Denver by 7.5
Denver covers.
Dallas @ Green Bay, Green Bay by 7
Green Bay covers.
New England @ Houston, New England by 3
New England covers... right?
Monday, 12/14
N.Y. Giants @ Miami, Giants by 1.5
 
Cardinals cover. Minnesota wants to bounce back after the loss, but AZ is just too strong.

Week 14 Results:

Pos | Name | Points | Record
1 | madviking | 22 | (10-2-4)
1 | Timsup2nothin | 22 | (10-2-4)
3 | caketastydelish | 19 | (9-1-5)
4 | vivalamexico | 18 | (9-0-7)
5 | illram | 16 | (7-2-6)
5 | Light Cleric | 16 | (7-2-7)
7 | KMRblue1027 | 15 | (6-3-7)
8 | IglooDude | 14 | (5-4-7)
9 | Owen Glyndwr | 13 | (5-3-8)

A pretty productive week across the board. Madviking and Timsup come away with a share of first place honors for the week. Congratulations to them. Cake follows just behind with a 3rd place finish of 19 points despite neglecting to make a pick in the DET@STL game. Both madviking and Tim secure their high scores by their usual strategy - going against the grain and shooting for the long shot against what the rest of the league is picking - and this time it paid off. The big surprises this week were Pittsburgh beating out Cincy (only madviking picked this), Cleveland covering on San Fran (Tim, Light Cleric, and cake), the Rams covering over Detroit (Tim, illram, and Igloo), and Jacksonville beating out Indy (madviking, and viva). This week also had quite a few pretty straightforward picks that most, if not everyone picked up points on: Seattle covering (15/18), Carolina covering (16/18), Philly winning (16/18), Green Bay covering (17/18), NE covering (18/18), and the Giants covering (14/18). So madviking and Tim and cake had great weeks, I had a terrible week; and illram and viva had good bounceback weeks. This should certainly shake up the standings, and hey, what do you know it does:

Overall standings:
Pos | Name | Points | Record
1 | Light Cleric | 230 | (101-28-78)
2 | vivalamexico | 205 | (91-21-96)
3 | madviking | 205 | (83-39-85)
4 | Owen Glyndwr | 203 | (83-37-78)
5 | caketastydelish | 202 | (88-26-60)
6 | illram | 202 | (85-32-87)
7 | Timsup2nothin | 183 | (78-27-90)
8 | IglooDude | 180 | (74-31-86)
9 | KMRblue1027 | 110 | (42-26-57)
10| Azale | 84 | (38-8-31)
11 | classical_hero | 17 | (8-1-7)

A reshuffle of the standings from 2-6. Now just 3 points separate these 5 places. Timsup retakes 7th place from Igloo. KMR breaks 100 points, Light Cleric breaks 100 p&s and adds 1 point to his lead. With three weeks of play left it's still theoretically possible for him to lose 1st place but that window is closing fast.
