As we enter Week 15 of the NFL season, division standings and playoff races continue to tighten up around the league. Bye weeks are in now officially in the rear view mirror and there’s only a few games left on each team’s schedule — so the stretch run is here.
A number of teams are facing a long list of players on the COVID-19/Reserve list this week, making some games difficult to project. However, that won’t stop the predictions from rolling in, so get in on the action below with our staff!

- Spencer 132-75-1

Consensus picks —
- Bills > Panthers (BUF -10.5)
- Cardinals > Lions (AZ -13.5)
- Dolphins > Jets (MIA -8.5)
- Cowboys > Giants (DAL -10.5)
- Eagles > Washington (PHI -6.5)
- 49ers > Falcons (SF -9.5)
- Rams > Seahawks (LAR -4.5)
- Buccaneers > Saints (TB -10.5)
- Vikings > Bears (MIN -2.5)
All of our writers are on board with four double-digit favorites this week: the Bills, Cardinals, Cowboys and Buccaneers. Buffalo and Arizona are looking for bounce-back wins after losing in Week 14, while Dallas and Tampa Bay hope to improve their chances of earning home-field advantage in the NFC playoffs.
Everyone is also on board with the Dolphins picking up a sixth straight win over the Jets, the Rams making it two in a row over the Seahawks, the 49ers beating the Falcons and the Vikings beating the Bears on Monday night. Miami and San Francisco are nearly 10-point favorites while the Rams and Vikings are favored by 4.5 and 2.5 points, respectively.
The Eagles are also a unanimous pick as a 6.5-point favorite over Washington. The Football Team has placed nearly 20 players on the COVID-19/Reserve list this week, which has caused the spread to jump nearly 2.5 points in Philadelphia’s favor.
