Colin Cowherd Week 12 2024 Blazing 5
- Colts +7.5
- Patriots +7.5
- 49ers +3
- Cardinals +1
- Eagles -2.5
Colts +7.5 vs Lions
The Lions are stepping up in competition after a blowout win and looking ahead to their Thanksgiving division game against the Bears. Anthony Richardson has won four of his last five starts and played his best game as a pro against the Jets, showing ability with long drives and downfield throws.
Detroit’s pass defense can be susceptible and they don’t have the same pass rush they had earlier in the season. The Colts have had an NFL-high six games decided by 3 points or less, showing they keep games close.
Colin projects Colts to upset Lions 28-27.
Patriots +7.5 vs Dolphins
The Patriots have played well under Jerod Mayo recently, going 2-2 in their last four games. Their defense ranks number five in scoring over the last three games.
The Dolphins’ recent wins have come against weaker competition (Raiders, Patriots, Jaguars). Drake Maye showed well last week against a good young Rams defense.
Colin sees this as a close divisional game with Miami winning 28-24, but Patriots covering the spread.
49ers +3 vs Packers
The 49ers are 3-1 following losses this year and their offense remains top five in yards per game and third down percentage. Christian McCaffrey is consistently producing 100+ yard games and George Kittle is returning.
The Packers barely beat the Bears with a blocked field goal, are 2-3 against winning teams, and Jordan Love has thrown at least one interception in nine games.
Colin predicts 49ers to win 28-24.
Cardinals +1 vs Seahawks
Arizona has found their identity with a strong defense and the fifth-ranked rushing offense in the league during their recent strong stretch. They’ve won four straight and five of six while playing good offensive football.
The Seahawks are on a four-game home losing streak and lack identity. Arizona has the better coach, defense, and quarterback according to Colin.
He projects Cardinals to win 30-24.
Eagles -2.5 vs Rams
The Eagles have been dominant since their Week 5 bye, going 6-0 with Jalen Hurts leading the NFL in total touchdowns (17). Saquon Barkley leads the NFL in rushing during this stretch while AJ Brown ranks second in receiving yards.
The Rams are struggling with injuries at both tackle positions which has affected their offensive production. While the Rams’ defense is good, Colin sees it as young and a year away from being great.
He predicts Eagles to win 28-21.
