NFL Week 12 Free Pick: Take New England. Michael Vick is out again with a rib injury and New England’s defense is starting to play better every week. (Although it’s hard to look bad against Tyler Palko and the Kansas City offense.) Until the Eagles prove that they can play with a shred of consistency there’s no reason to trust them now. Three points is nothing to lay on a New England team that is starting to heat up for its annual stretch run. According to latest NFL trends, the Patriots are 47-23-3 against the spread in their last 73 road games while the Eagles are just 1-7 ATS in their last eight home games.
