All systems look to continue their accurate ways following Thursday Night's result as the full slate of Week 13 games gets underway on Sunday. Which systems will achieve that magical 70% accuracy mark after starting the weekend a perfect 1 for 1?
Thursday Night Score Prediction:
Houston Texans at Philadelphia Eagles (Actual ~ Philadelphia, 34-24)
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Philadelphia, 37-28. Michael Vick and the Eagles will get their offensive groove back against one of the worst defenses in the league, but Houston will put up some points of their own to make the game interesting.
Scottie V's Pick: Philadelphia, 23-21. Fanatical Eagles' fans get the best of Texans on Thursday night.
Vegas Lines Pick: Philadelphia, 31-20. Philadelphia by 8.5, Over/Under 51.
Accuscore Pick: Philadelphia, 30-7. Philadelphia 81% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Philadelphia, 24-20. Philadelphia won 3 of 5 simulations.
Best Record Wins Pick: Philadelphia, 20-17. Philadelphia better at 7-4.
Home Team Wins Pick: Philadelphia, 20-17
The Eagles resumed their soaring ways by knocking off the Texans on a short week to take a half-game lead in the division standings over the New York Giants. Michael Vick plays lights out again and leads Philadelphia to a fourth quarter comeback after Houston took the lead in the third quarter. For the Texans, Arian Foster continued to shine, but their playoff hopes took another solid hit on Thursday. With only four games remaining and a 5-7 record, Houston's best chance at making the playoffs is to capture the division title. With the four juggernaut teams in the AFC's North and East, they have no chance at a Wild Card spot. All systems come away with a victory as Houston is unable to upset the Eagles at home.

Creative Misfortune's Pick: New Orleans, 24-10. The Bengals have nothing to play for and the Saints are finally starting to get back to their championship form.

San Francisco 49ers at Green Bay Packers
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Green Bay, 31-17. The Packers are still smarting from their loss in Atlanta next week and the 49ers, regardless of how good they looked on Monday, are still a 4-7 team.
Scottie V's Pick: Green Bay, 31-14. In spite of San Fran's success last Monday night, the Packers are the anti-Cardinals.

Denver Broncos at Kansas City Chiefs

Cleveland Browns at Miami Dolphins
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Miami, 21-17. If this game were in Cleveland, Miami would be the run away favorite, but the Dolphins have shown an absurd inability to win at home. They reverse that trend with a nail-biter win in South Florida.

Buffalo Bills at Minnesota Vikings
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Buffalo, 24-20. Buffalo has played everybody strong lately and the Vikings are anything but a strong team these days.
Scottie V's Pick: Buffalo, 27-17. The topsy turvy nature of the NFL is on full display in this game... Up is down! Black is white!! Buffalo is good!!! Minnesota is bad!!!!
Vegas Lines Pick: Minnesota, 26-20. Minnesota by 5.5, Over/Under 44.5.

Washington Redskins at New York Giants
Creative Misfortune's Pick: New York, 24-17. The Giants' win last week, combined with the Eagles' loss, reminds New York the division is still theirs for the taking if they can just execute.

Atlanta Falcons at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Atlanta, 27-14. The best team in the NFC shows no signs of slowing down and Tampa Bay can't beat anybody with a winning record.
Scottie V's Pick: Atlanta, 24-17. Not the "World's Largest Cocktail Party", but this game has big-time implications... Matt Ryan will be the difference.
Vegas Lines Pick: Atlanta, 26-20. Atlanta by 3, Over/Under 44.5.
Accuscore Pick: Atlanta, 21-16. Atlanta 59% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Atlanta, 24-14. Atlanta won 4 of 5 simulations.

Home Team Wins Pick: Tampa Bay, 20-17
Oakland Raiders at San Diego Chargers
Creative Misfortune's Pick: San Diego, 41-17. The Raiders are shell-shocked and facing the Chargers - in December, in San Diego - will not be the cure they are looking for.
Scottie V's Pick: San Diego, 35-21. Who's going to stop the Super-Chargers? Not the Raiders.
Vegas Lines Pick: San Diego, 30-16. San Diego by 13, Over/Under 45.

Carolina Panthers at Seattle Seahawks

St. Louis Rams at Arizona Cardinals
Creative Misfortune's Pick: St. Louis, 28-13. The Cardinals are the worst team in the NFC West. When you're the worst of the worst, how can you be expected to win any game?
Scottie V's Pick: St. Louis, 24-14. Don't look now, but the Rams are playing some pretty good football... The Cardinals, not so much.
Vegas Lines Pick: St. Louis, 24-20. St. Louis by 3.5, Over/Under 43.
Accuscore Pick: St. Louis, 21-16. St. Louis 59% win confidence

Home Team Wins Pick: Arizona, 20-17
Dallas Cowboys at Indianapolis Colts
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Indianapolis, 30-27. The Cowboys make too many mental mistakes to win in Indianapolis, but the Colts are mortal enough these days to allow for a close, entertaining game.
Scottie V's Pick: Indianapolis, 27-23. The Colts get a much-needed victory and the shine starts to wear off in the Jason Garrett era.

Pittsburgh Steelers at Baltimore Ravens
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Pittsburgh, 19-16. Act I of the AFC's greatest Week 13 matchups. 4 Field goals and a touchdown vs 3 field goals and a touchdown sounds about right to me.
Scottie V's Pick: Pittsburgh, 23-20. The Steelers knock off their hated rival in Baltimore thanks to some timely turnovers.
Vegas Lines Pick: Baltimore, 23-17. Baltimore by 3, Over/Under 40.

Monday Night Score Prediction:
New York Jets at New England Patriots
Creative Misfortune's Pick: New England, 21-17. Act II of the AFC's greatest Week 13 matchups. The Patriots even the score with the Jets and take control of the division.
Scottie V's Pick: New England, 27-17. The Jets are still not in the same class as a red-hot Patriot team.
Vegas Lines Pick: New England, 26-21. New England by 3.5, Over/Under 45.5.
Accuscore Pick: New England, 24-13. New England 66% win confidence
