Here are the week 16 NFL predictions:

Thursday, 12/20/2007

Pittsburgh Steelers 25
St Louis Rams 18

Oddsmakers are well aware of Pittsburgh road struggles this season, but the Rams have been worse at home in comparison.

Saturday, 12/22/2007

Dallas Cowboys 27
Carolina Panthers 16

The Panthers have won two straight home games, but the books feel the Boys will bounce back to stay in the race for home field.

Sunday, 12/23/2007

Cleveland Browns 23
Cincinnati Bengals 20

Oddsmakers like the Browns to squeak out another one to shore up a playoff spot.

Green Bay Packers 24
Chicago Bears 13

With the Bears out of the playoff picture, Vegas likes the Pack as they compete with Dallas for home field in the playoffs.

Houston Texans 19
Indianapolis Colts 26

The Colts defense at home is the difference here in the mind of oddsmakers, even if the Colts rest players.

Kansas City Chiefs 19
Detroit Lions 24

Home field is the difference in this battle of slumping squads.

New York Giants 17
Buffalo Bills 15

With the Giants not looking sharp down the stretch, the books feel the Bills will give them a scare.

Oakland Raiders 13
Jacksonville Jaguars 26

The Jags are rolling and the books like their defense to shut down the Raiders.

Philadelphia Eagles 22
New Orleans Saints 25

The Saints offense continues its solid play at home according to the books.

Atlanta Falcons 17
Arizona Cardinals 27

The books feel the Falcons’ road woes continue in the dessert.

Baltimore Ravens 14
Seattle Seahawks 25

Baltimore’s terrible slide continues. Oddsmakers are giving the Ravens no chance to regroup after going down to Miami last week.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers 21
San Francisco 49ers 15

The Bucs are the better team and the oddsmakers have reflected that with their prediction.

Miami Dolphins 12
New England Patriots 34

Oddsmakers are forced to lay out the big chalk for the Pats again this week against the NFL’s bottom feeder.

New York Jets 14
Tennessee Titans 23

The Jets have really struggled on the road and oddsmakers feel that the Titans’ solid home play translates into an easy win here.

Washington Redskins 17
Minnesota Vikings 23

Minnesota keeps on rolling at home even against a Redskins team which has strung together back-to-back wins.

Monday, 12/24/2007

Denver Broncos 19
San Diego Chargers 28

San Diego is 6-1 at home this season and has won 4 straight. The books don’t feel the Broncos will slow the Bolts down.
