NFL Picks Week 14: 3 Sure-Fire Locks This Weekend

The NFL season is almost over and that means that Vegas has lines set tighter than ever as they have figured out almost every single team by now.  

However, there is still value to be found for the smart bettor and I’ve identified three locks this week that will get you paid if you make a wager on them.

Let’s take a look.

New York Giants (+4.5) at Dallas Cowboys

I hate backing the G-Men, but you have to do it against this crazy Cowboys team led by choke artist Tony Romo.

This game is the first of two between these teams over the next month that will determine the NFC East winner.

I don’t think Romo can handle the pressure, as he has proven time and time again he can’t in big games, and throws this one away.

Denver Broncos (-3.5) vs. Chicago Bears

Denver is in the midst of a revival right now under Tim Tebow and won’t be derailed by the Bears without Jay Cutler and Matt Forte.

Chicago is quickly sliding out of the playoff picture and now the team has lumped heaps of pressure onto bum backup QB Caleb Hanie and RB Marion Barber.

Back the Broncos and get paid here against a team that is melting down.

Houston Texans (+3) at Cincinnati Bengals

Andre Johnson isn’t playing, but it won’t make a difference as T.J. Yates, Arian Foster and Ben Tate have this team rolling right now.

The Bengals are in the midst of a slide out of playoff contention while the Texans are fighting to try and secure a one- or two-seed to give their rookie QB a week off to prepare in the playoffs.

It’ll be a battle, but I think the Texans get it done and pull out the "W," easily covering and cashing tickets.
