Here are my final picks for week 15. I'll be posting some spread tips in the next hour or two that I think are good value.
A quick RGIII timeline before we start:

Sunday: Suffers knee injury that forces him to limp from the game and prevents him even walking at one point.
Browns mindset: YES! No RGIII! Want to go grab a beer to celebrate?

Monday: RGIII has a sprained LCL and is not ruled out
Browns Mindset: _Lets prepare for both Cousins and RGIII just in case. _

Tuesday: Pierre Garcon says Kirk Cousins is starting on ESPN
Browns Mindset: _Ok, lets focus on Kirk Cousins, he's the likely starter. I think. _

Wednesday-Thursday: RGIII practices fully.
Browns Mindset: Hang on a minute... we still need to prepare for RGIII. They've been playing us for suckers! Get me a mineral water!
Friday: RGIII is revealed by Rob Parker of ESPN to not, in fact, be black.
Browns Mindset: Wait, so does that mean Kirk Cousins is the guy with the braids tearing up defences? Who... where am I?

Saturday: RGIII is ruled out.
Browns Mindset: I don't even know if that is good news anymore. I really need a beer...

I said on Tuesday that Garcon's slip was probably a pre-meditated double/triple/quadruple bluff that was designed purely to sell the idea of a QB dilemma in D.C. when in reality, anyone who saw RGIII unable to walk on Sunday knows that they'd be risking a full scale disaster if they put him out there. By flip-flopping the news angle all week, they've kept the Browns from planning completely for Kirk Cousins or RGIII. Good job Mike! I still prefer the Browns against Cousins, but it was a really well worked week of bluffing, which always makes the game more intriguing and absolutely infuriates pickers and gamblers everywhere.

As far as Rob Parker goes... there's nothing anyone can say that hasn't already been said. Most right-thinking people can see that defining people's actions or image as 'black' or 'white' is a very stupid road for any society to go down, but it's also really important to remember that Parker's views are still representative of a large part of society that like to see sports stars stay within boundaries they consider to be 'normal' for their race.

Sadly, people do class certain actions as exclusive to different racial cultures, but hopefully the fact that a lot of NFL fans are rightly outraged by Parker's comments have put paid to some of that lingering attitude of racial stereotyping.

Heavy stuff. Let's go with the picks to lighten the mood:

Thursday Night:

Bengals @ Eagles

I didn't like what I saw of Nick Foles so far this season and I still wonder whether clutching at straws and deciding to go him after this season could be a mistake. The Bengals took advantage of Foles and Bryce Brown's rookie mistakes but were far from convincing in victory.

Sunday:

Giants @ Falcons

Packers @ Bears

Redskins @ Browns

Vikings @ Rams

Jaguars @ Dolphins

Buccaneers @ Saints

Broncos @ Ravens

Colts @ Texans

Seahawks @ Bills

Lions @ Cardinals

Panthers @ Chargers

*Steelers *@ Cowboys

Chiefs @ Raiders
Sunday Night:

49ers @ Patriots

Monday Night:

Jets @ Titans
The only pick I've flipped on is the Jets @ Titans, and I'm still not convinced that the Titans can avoid mistakes against the Jets D, but with Keller doubtful, Edwards questionable and Bilal Powell dealing with a fractured toe, I think Mark Sanchez could be heading into a world of trouble on Monday.
