NFL Picks Week 15: 5 Games That Will Be Better Than Expected

There is only one game left in Week 14, so it is time to look at the best NFL picks for Week 15, when it looks like many games are going to be blowouts.

Many teams are in the playoff hunt, but there are some who will put up a tough fight even though they are out of the playoff picture.

Some of these games include the New England Patriots at the Denver Broncos or even the Tennessee Titans at the Indianapolis Colts. Week 15 will be a great week to watch, especially with playoffs now just around the corner.

Jaguars at Falcons, 12/15

Maurice Jones-Drew had a career game in Week 14 with four total touchdowns as the Jacksonville Jaguars crushed the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 41-14. Jones-Drew will be a problem for the Atlanta Falcons defense, which had better not take this Jaguars team lightly on the defensive end either.

This will be a very close game and if the Falcons aren't careful, then the Jaguars might be able to pull off the upset on Thursday in Week 15.

Titans at Colts, 12/18

The Indianapolis Colts had a tough time against the defense of the Baltimore Ravens in Week 14, but the Colts should get a win some time, right?

Well, this might be their week as the Tennessee Titans are coming to town, so there is some hope that the Colts have a chance of winning this Week 15 matchup.

NFL picks are hard to make, but the Colts seem to have some hope to get a win by the end of the season. A lot has to go wrong in order to go an entire NFL season winless.

Panthers at Texans, 12/18

Cam Newton is an explosive force at the quarterback position and the Houston Texans' defense might not be able to contain him as well as the Falcons defense did in Week 14. Newton had an explosive first half against the Falcons, but did not do much in the second half.

Week 15 will be exactly what Newton needs: a great win over a playoff-bound team.

The Texans are already in the playoffs, so they will rest their best guys late in this game and that is when Newton will will this game for the Carolina Panthers.

Patriots at Broncos, 12/18

The New England Patriots are rolling on a five-game win streak, but there is only one team that is hotter than them, besides of course the undefeated Green Bay Packers, and that team is the Denver Broncos.

The Broncos have won six straight and are 7-1 in their last eight games, thanks to Tim Tebow and the Broncos' play on the defensive end.

The Patriots better watch out in this game because Tebow just keeps winning, and if it is close toward the end, even as much as 10 points, the Broncos could surge and come back.

Ravens at Chargers, 12/18

Ray Rice and the Baltimore Ravens better watch themselves when they face a San Diego Chargers team that is still trying to get back into the playoff hunt.

The Chargers are only one game out of a wild-card spot, and the Ravens will need to put on a great game in order to pull this one out.
