NFL picks: Week 13 killed us, maybe Week 14 will be better

So, last week was brutal. Three of us managed 7-9 and the week's winner was a measly 8-8. It seems that I am sort of coasting to the finish line. After a 13-1 week, I have followed it up with 5-11 and 7-9. I guess it is in the right direction.

Here are our writer picks of the week. Whether you use these for your own wagering or not is up to you.

Jess Root: 115-77 (7-9) Broncos, Bills, Falcons, Cowboys, Browns, Colts, Jets, Bears, Steelers, Bucs, Ravens, 49ers, Giants, Cardinals (masochist is what I am), Packers, Patriots

Tyler Nickel: 113-64 (7-9) Broncos, Ravens, Bengals, Rams, Buccaneers, Falcons, Browns, Chargers, Colts, Jaguars, Bears, 49ers, Seahawks, Giants, Packers, Patriots

Alex Mann: 103-73 (7-9) Denver, St. Louis, Atlanta, Dallas, Cleveland, Indianapolis, Jacksonville, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay, Washington, San Francisco, New Orleans, Seattle, Green Bay, Houston

Skii: 109-67 (8-8) Denver, Dallas, St. Louis, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Chicago, New York Jets, Indianapolis, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Baltimore, San Francisco, Arizona, New York Giants, Green Bay, New England
