JetNation Week 13 Picks

by Nick Ferraro

Jets at Packers (even)
The Jets have to be concerned about the weather in this one.  Right now the “experts� are calling for snow and strong winds.  A bad weather day is meaningless to Favre, but very meaningful for Pennington.  Chad’s lack of arm strength on a windy day will give the Pack a decided advantage.  The Jets are the better team though; and they should find a way to win regardless of the conditions.  I like the Jets in a close one if it’s nasty outside.  If the Jets get a break on the weather, they should notch a 10-point win.
Jets 20 Packers 17

Lions at Patriots (-13.5)
The Lions are a pathetic mess.  They couldn’t stay close to Miami at home on Thanksgiving, and they haven’t won a road game all season.  They aren’t going to reverse that trend this week.  The Powder Puff schedule is officially reinstated for New England after a one-week hiatus. 
Patriots 30 Lions 0

Buccaneers at Steelers (-7)
The Steelers season officially entered the toilet last week in embarrassing fashion.  This team has too much talent and too much pride not to follow up that debacle with a solid effort at home.  Factor in that the Bucs are just flat out bad, and this one will be over early.
Steelers 34 Bucs 6
