NFL Picks Week 10: Buffalo Bills and More Teams That Will Pick Up Needed Wins

The playoff race is starting to clear up a little bit, but a few races will come down until the very end. 

All three of these teams have dropped at least their last game. They were once playoff locks, but now sit in much more vulnerable positions. 

Fortunately, they will all get much needed wins this week. All teams are in tough games and could easily lose, but the matchups are just right to pull off a victory.

Buffalo Bills

The Cowboys have been horribly inconsistent all season. Now, that same logic also applies to the Bills, but I like them coming through and winning this one. 

Strangely enough, all of these teams are playing on the road this weekend.

I like how the Buffalo receivers stack up against the Dallas Cowboys, and Fred Jackson is having a great year. 

The Bills defense isn't always great, but they do force a lot of turnovers. Tony Romo and the Cowboys offense turn the ball over a lot. 

This game will be good, but the edge belongs to the Bills.

New England Patriots

I guess we're taking on a decidedly AFC East theme right now, which is cool. The Patriots pass defense isn't very good, but I am not sure that the Jets are the team to expose it. 

Conversely, while the Jets have a good defense, I completely expect Tom Brady to come through with just the right amount of plays. 

After losing two weeks in a row, the Patriots find themselves in a more defensive position than normal. Still, I expect that funk to stop this week.

Pittsburgh Steelers

The Steelers are going to have a tough time in the AFC North because they lost to the Ravens twice. 

Now, if the Steelers are battling for a playoff spot with the Patriots, they are in good shape. But I see the Patriots winning the AFC East, so that win won't do too much.

I like how they match up to a very good Bengals team. Even in Cincinnati, they will come through with the right amount of big plays and pull through.
