NFL Week 16 Preview

Carolina Panthers @ NY Giants
Spread: Giants, -7
o/u: 42.5
Carolina's Matt Moore has been improving since replacing Jake Delhomme at QB. That doesn't mean his performances have been particularly good. Now he has to take on a strong Giants pass rush in the cold and wind of Giants Stadium. With DeAngelo Williams still doubtful, things won't be getting better for him. Though not really a cold weather team either, the Giants at least know what to expect from their home stadium.
Pick: Giants 31 - Panthers 17

Friday Night Special - San Diego @ Tennessee

San Diego Chargers @ Tannessee Titans
Spread: Titans, -3
o/u: 47
Since their bye in Week 7, the Titans have been on a 7-1 run. During that run, the Titans had one thing going for them: Only one of the teams they played against was playing at a consistently good level. That was the Colts, who they lost to. The Chargers go to Tennessee this week having won nine straight games, and haven't scored less than 20 points in a game all season. The Chargers are simply the better team. They haven't given up 100 yards to a back since Rashard Mendenhall in Week 4, their passing game has outplayed their opponents in all but five games, and have already beaten Philly, Cincinnati, Dallas, Denver, and the Giants. The Chargers are just plain better.
Pick: Chargers 31 - Titans 24
