Week 16 NFL picks for Bengals vs. Patriots

Before tuning into Saturday’s Patriots vs. Bengals game, you need to see the NFL picks from SportsLine’s advanced computer model. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up more than $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 16 of the 2022 NFL season on an incredible 157-113 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season.

The model also ranked in the top 10 on NFLPickWatch four of the past six years on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 94% of CBS Sports Football Pick’em players four times during that span. Anyone who has followed it is way up.

For Patriots vs. Bengals, the model is picking New England to cover the spread. Burrow and the Bengals are a tough matchup, but the model sees the home team keeping things close on Christmas Eve. The Bengals’ defense is dealing with injuries, which should take pressure off Jones. Plus, three of Cincinnati’s four losses on the season have come on the road, and last week’s win in Tampa Bay was largely due to the late-game turnovers the Bucs committed. 

The Bengals have hit their stride, but a desperate Patriots squad has the potential to keep this one close. You may be able to stream the game here.
