NFL Week 15 Free Pick:
Nobody knows what to make of the Broncos right now. Kyle Orton is still scheduled to start, yet he split first-team snaps with rookie Tim Tebow earlier in the week so who knows what’s going on with Denver’s quarterback position. Either way, Orton has been terrible the past two weeks and Tebow hasn’t seen extensive time under center as a pro. Meanwhile, Darren McFadden has emerged as a big-time playmaker and Denver doesn’t have anyone to stop him defensively. Assuming Jason Campbell doesn’t turn the ball over and make a bunch of dumb mistakes, the Raiders should cruise to victory on Sunday. They’re 5-0 against the spread in their last five games against the AFC West and 9-2 in their last 11 games following an ATS loss. Our pick is the Raiders -6.5.
