All systems look to continue their accurate ways following Thursday Night's result. Will the Vegas Lines system be able to duplicate last week's impressive 13-3 record? See all prediction details below.
Sorry for the delay getting the picks posted. I was deathly ill all yesterday...
Thursday Night Result:
San Francisco 49ers at San Diego Chargers (Actual ~ San Diego, 34-7)
Creative Misfortune's Pick: San Diego, 31-17. Both teams are playing for a chance to take their division crown, but the Chargers are a far superior team.
Scottie V's Pick: San Diego, 28-13. The Super-Chargers are red hot and they'll win the No-Cal vs. So-Cal matchup.

Accuscore Pick: San Diego, 31-7. San Diego 83% win confidence

Best Record Wins Pick: San Diego, 20-17. San Diego better at 7-6.
Home Team Wins Pick: San Diego, 20-17
The Chargers won easily as expected and kept their playoff hopes alive.
Sunday Game Score Predictions:
Cleveland Browns at Cincinnati Bengals
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Cleveland, 27-24. Neither team is very good, so I won't have to watch this on TV. Whoo. Dodged a bullet there.
Scottie V's Pick: Cleveland, 23-13. Cincy is at the height of their dysfunction and the Browns play some cohesive ball.
Vegas Lines Pick: Cincinnati, 23-17. Cincinnati by 2, Over/Under 40.
Accuscore Pick: Cleveland, 20-17. Cleveland 55% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Cleveland, 21-20. Cleveland won 3 of 5 simulations.

Home Team Wins Pick: Cincinnati, 20-17
Washington Redskins at Dallas Cowboys
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Dallas, 28-20. Their seasons may be over, but Dallas can still inspire their fans for next year with a nice victory over their hated division rival.
Scottie V's Pick: Dallas, 27-14. Let's hear it for Jason Garrett! He's turned a hapless Kitna-led Cowboys squad to respectability... Meanwhile, in Washington...
Vegas Lines Pick: Dallas, 27-20. Dallas by 6, Over/Under 46.
Accuscore Pick: Dallas, 23-14. Dallas 63% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Dallas, 24-23. Dallas won 3 of 5 simulations.

Home Team Wins Pick: Dallas, 20-17
Houston Texans at Tennessee Titans
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Houston, 34-27. Both teams will likely be eliminated this week, regardless of the outcome of this game, but Houston is still playing with a lot of fire. Tennessee is mailing it in just waiting for Coach Fisher to resign or be fired at the end of the season.
Scottie V's Pick: Houston, 24-10. The Texans will take out their pent-up aggression over a lost season on this suddenly fractured Titan team.
Vegas Lines Pick: Tennessee, 26-23. Tennessee by 1.5, Over/Under 47.5.
Accuscore Pick: Tennessee, 17-16. Tennessee 51% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Houston, 24-23. Houston won 3 of 5 simulations.

Home Team Wins Pick: Tennessee, 20-17
Jacksonville Jaguars at Indianapolis Colts
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Indianapolis, 24-21. The Jaguars always seem to play Indianapolis hard, but Manning and crew aren't yet ready to relinquish their hold of the AFC South title.
Scottie V's Pick: Indianapolis, 27-24. Jacksonville will provide all Peyton can handle, but I just can't believe the Colts are ready to ride off into the sunset.
Vegas Lines Pick: Indianapolis, 28-21. Indianapolis by 5, Over/Under 48.5.
Accuscore Pick: Indianapolis, 23-14. Indianapolis 62% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Indianapolis, 26-17. Indianapolis won 4 of 5 simulations.
Best Record Wins Pick: Jacksonville, 20-17. Jacksonville better at 8-5.
Home Team Wins Pick: Indianapolis, 20-17
Kansas City Chiefs at St. Louis Rams
Creative Misfortune's Pick: St. Louis 24-14. With Cassel still questionable for Sunday's game, the Rams will climb back to .500 and maintain their lead in the NFC West.
Scottie V's Pick: Kansas City, 24-21. Will Cassell play? If so, he surely won't be 100%... Even still, I think the Chiefs have enough going for them to get a much-needed victory in St. Louis.
Vegas Lines Pick: St. Louis, 23-20. St. Louis by 2, Over/Under 42.5.
Accuscore Pick: Kansas City, 20-17. Kansas City 55% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Kansas City, 27-13. Kansas City won 4 of 5 simulations.
Best Record Wins Pick: Kansas City, 20-17. Kansas City better at 8-5.
Home Team Wins Pick: St. Louis, 20-17
Buffalo Bills at Miami Dolphins
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Miami, 24-17. In a game featuring the also-rans of the AFC East, Miami will gain a bit of traction in their difficult quest for a Wild Card spot.
Scottie V's Pick: Buffalo, 23-20. Suddenly I find myself rooting for the Bills... They're a feisty bunch... And they will take their talents out on South Beach.
Vegas Lines Pick: Miami, 23-17. Miami by 5.5, Over/Under 40.
Accuscore Pick: Miami, 27-10. Miami 74% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Miami, 21-16. Miami won 3 of 5 simulations.
Best Record Wins Pick: Miami, 20-17. Miami better at 7-6.
Home Team Wins Pick: Miami, 20-17
Detroit Lions at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Tampa Bay, 17-13. The Buccaneers beat teams with losing records, but the game will be close.
Scottie V's Pick: Tampa Bay, 24-16. Much as I'd like to pick Detroit (a likeable bunch a-la the Bills), but I think Tampa will play inspired ball at home.
Vegas Lines Pick: Tampa Bay, 26-17. Tampa Bay by 6, Over/Under 43.
Accuscore Pick: Tampa Bay, 27-9. Tampa Bay 75% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Tampa Bay, 23-17. Tampa Bay won all 5 simulations.

Home Team Wins Pick: Tampa Bay, 20-17
Arizona Cardinals at Carolina Panthers
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Arizona, 34-24. Arizona figured a few things out last week and Carolina just added a few more players to injured reserve. Plus, in the NFC West, Arizona still has something to play for.
Scottie V's Pick: Carolina, 20-14. Wow. This is about as hideous a matchup as you could get. Think Carolina may play just a little less awful at home.
Vegas Lines Pick: Carolina, 21-17. Carolina by 2.5, Over/Under 38.
Accuscore Pick: Carolina, 21-16. Carolin 59% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Carolina, 24-13. Carolina won all 5 simulations.
Best Record Wins Pick: Arizona, 20-17. Arizona better at 4-9.
Home Team Wins Pick: Carolina, 20-17
New Orleans Saints at Baltimore Ravens
Creative Misfortune's Pick: New Orleans, 21-17. The Saints learned something very important from Baltimore's collapse on Monday night - the Ravens defense ain't what it used to be.
Scottie V's Pick: New Orleans, 24-16. The Saints play their grittiest game of the year getting a big win in Baltimore.
Vegas Lines Pick: Baltimore, 23-21. Baltimore by 1, Over/Under 43.5.
Accuscore Pick: Baltimore, 20-17. Baltimore 53% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Baltimore, 17-10. Baltimore won 4 of 5 simulations.
Best Record Wins Pick: New Orleans, 20-17. New Orleans better at 10-3.
Home Team Wins Pick: Baltimore, 20-17
Philadelphia Eagles at New York Giants
Creative Misfortune's Pick: New York, 37-31. The defensive line of the Giants will contain Vick just enough to turn him into a pocket passer. Without the big play, Philadelphia will not be able to win.
Scottie V's Pick: New York, 27-20. This should be a fun game... I'll give the Giants the nod at home.
Vegas Lines Pick: New York, 26-21. New York by 3, Over/Under 46.5.
Accuscore Pick: Philadelphia, 17-16. Philadelphia 51% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: New York, 21-10. New York won all 5 simulations.

Home Team Wins Pick: New York, 20-17
Atlanta Falcons at Seattle Seahawks
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Atlanta, 27-10. The Falcons cannot afford to have any letdowns before the Saints come to town next week.
Scottie V's Pick: Atlanta, 28-17. It's Week 15 and the Falcons are still gettin' it done... Maybe I need to buy in... Don't think the Seahawks are the team to halt this train.
Vegas Lines Pick: Atlanta, 28-20. Atlanta by 7, Over/Under 45.5.
Accuscore Pick: Atlanta, 24-14. Atlanta 64% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Atlanta, 27-26. Atlanta won 3 of 5 simulations.
Best Record Wins Pick: Atlanta, 20-17. Atlanta better at 11-2.
Home Team Wins Pick: Seattle, 20-17
New York Jets at Pittsburgh Steelers
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Pittsburgh, 20-7. Pittsburgh will level some good old smash-mouth football on the Jets and shut them up for good.
Scottie V's Pick: Pittsburgh, 28-13. I can't wait for this game! Better hope that no Jet's coach tries to trip Troy Polamalu... He'll come at them like a spider-monkey!
Vegas Lines Pick: Pittsburgh, 23-14. Pittsburgh by 6, Over/Under 36.
Accuscore Pick: Pittsburgh, 28-9. Pittsburgh 77% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Pittsburgh, 21-14. Pittsburgh won 4 of 5 simulations.
Best Record Wins Pick: Pittsburgh, 20-17. Pittsburgh better at 10-3.
Home Team Wins Pick: Pittsburgh, 20-17
Denver Broncos at Oakland Raiders
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Oakland, 35-14. The Broncos are rapidly becoming an embarrassment and the Raiders will have no problem humiliating them further.
Scottie V's Pick: Oakland, 27-17. I can't believe that Oakland is respectable and I keep picking them to win... Has Hell frozen over? Has Al Davis left the 1980's??
Vegas Lines Pick: Oakland, 27-17. Oakland by 7, Over/Under 43.5.
Accuscore Pick: Oakland, 24-14. Oakland 64% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Oakland, 23-13. Oakland won all 5 simulations.
Best Record Wins Pick: Oakland, 20-17. Oakland better at 6-7.
Home Team Wins Pick: Oakland, 20-17
Green Bay Packers at New England Patriots
Creative Misfortune's Pick: New England, 31-17. Whether the weather is good or bad, Matt Flynn will not be able to keep pace with Brady and the explosive Patriots offense in New England.
Scottie V's Pick: New England, 34-20. This game might be a lot more interesting with a healthy Aaron Rodgers, but let's be honest, even that might not stop the machine that is the New England Patriots.
Vegas Lines Pick: New England, 30-13. New England by 13.5, Over/Under 43.
Accuscore Pick: New England, 27-10. New England 73% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: New England, 20-17. New England won 3 of 5 simulations.
Best Record Wins Pick: New England, 20-17. New England better at 11-2.
Home Team Wins Pick: New England, 20-17
Monday Night Score Prediction:
Chicago Bears at Minnesota Vikings
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Chicago, 6-2. The Bears proved last week they are not a cold-weather team. The Vikings have not been a cold-weather team in almost 30 years. TCF Bank, despite being an outdoor stadium was not designed for football to be played on its hallowed grass this late into December. A sloppy, miserable game sounds about right, with Chicago winning by the score of 6-2 after scoring a touchdown and botching the extra point. Minnesota gets the safety after Chicago snaps the ball through the end zone late in the fourth quarter on purpose, deciding not to risk a punt. Also, if you are available to start at quarterback for the Vikes, please contact Leslie Frazier at the Vikings practice facility, Winter Park, in Eden Prairie, Minnesota.
Scottie V's Pick: Chicago, 23-13. The crumbling of their stadium is the perfect picture of the Vikings' season... Playing in a college stadium in Week 15 seems appropriate.
Vegas Lines Pick: Chicago, 23-10. Chicago by 8, Over/Under 33.5.
Accuscore Pick: Minnesota, 17-16. Minnesota 51% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: Chicago, 17-14. Chicago won 3 of 5 simulations.
Best Record Wins Pick: Chicago, 20-17. Chicago better at 9-4.
Home Team Wins Pick: Minnesota, 20-17
