NFL Week 15 Free Pick:
The Falcons have covered in five straight, which usually means they’re due for a letdown. They’ve also played two straight on the road and now have to travel cross-country to play a Seattle team fighting for first place in the NFC West. So take the points and the home team right? Well, no. The Falcons can clinch a playoff berth with a win and move closer to earning the top seed in the NFC. They’re not going to break focus now and the Seahawks are severely overmatched. Look for the Falcons to grind down the Seahawks with Michael Turner and their running game and take shots over the top with Matt Ryan and Roddy White. Atlanta is 5-0 ATS in its last five games as a favorite and 5-0 ATS in its last five games overall. Our pick is the Falcons –6.
