LCB NFL Picks: Week Fourteen

Denver Broncos vs. Indianapolis Colts @ 1:00 on CBS:
Langston: If the Colts win on Sunday, they will set a record by winning 22 consecutive regular-season games, and they will clinch the AFC's top seed. If the Broncos win, oh, who cares? This game is all about the Colts continuing on their path to perfection. If they lose, it will be considered an upset. If they win, it will be expected. I'll go with the expected because one team has Peyton while the other has Neckbeard. Colts 35, Broncos 27.


San Diego Chargers vs. Dallas Cowboys @ 4:15 on CBS:
Langston: Last week, I made reference to the Cowboys falling into a football abyss, since the calender says December. I was joking, I really didn't expect it to happen for the third or fourth or whatever year in a row. But that doesn't mean I don't enjoy it. In a league with so much parity, it's actually one of the things I've grown accustomed to, and it's quite comforting to know that the Cowboys will choke away their division lead by turning into a bad college team once Novembers over. So, for that, I thank you Tony Romo. Chargers 28, Cowboys 21.


Philadelphia Eagles vs. New York Giants @ 8:20 on NBC SNF:
Langston: The Eagles have won three straight in this rivalry match-up. If they can win a fourth, the Giants will most likely be watching the playoffs from the comfort of their living rooms. Philadelphia would be two games up on New York with three games left and own the tiebreaker over the Giants for any playoff spot. DeSean Jackson is back from his concussion, but won't be joined by Brian Westbrook. Leonard Weaver will probably get a majority of the carries with McCoy getting a fair share of his own. Which is why I'm taking the Giants. They finally got Brandon Jacobs going and they pummeled the Cowboys. I see the Jacobs train rolling along en route to a victory. Giants 21, Eagles 17.


Arizona Cardinals vs. San Fransisco 49ers @ 8:30 on ESPN MNF:
Langston: During the Heisman Trophy presentation, ESPN managed to interrupt the ceremony to tell you about this game. I'm not saying they aired commercials during the 1-hour program-- they did-- but I'm telling you they had Chris Fowler actually plug the game from the stage. I don't know if I am the only the one, but I can't imagine a more inappropriate time for them to advertise a game. This will be remembered as the greatest night of Mark Ingram's life, and in the middle of those wonderful memories he will remember that this game was somehow part of his glorious night. Shameful. Anyways, I'll take the Niners winning 24-17.
