So here we are at the end of the year. But first a look at last week
Record:
Points: Bucs, Falcons, Saints, Jets, Colts, Ravens, Raiders, Chiefs,
8-5 for a total of 113-99
Victories: Bucs, Pats, Niners, Falcons, Saints, Giants, Jets, Dolphins, Ravens, Broncos, Chiefs
11-5 for a total of 153-86
So now we have the last week of regular season picks. As usual I am using sportsline.com for my odds
Browns (-2.5) @ Bengals: A very disappointing season for the Browns ends in a victory against Cincy. And I think they will cover
Points: Browns
Victory: Browns
Bears @ Vikings (-1): PICK'EM!!!!!!!!!!!!
Vikings are locked into the 6th seed so they might not play anybody. The Bears have been a disappointment but I think they will win
Victory: Bears
Falcons @ Buccaneers (-1.5): PICK'EM #2!!!!!!!!!!!!
Two teams that have really had ups and downs this year. I am going to take the Falcons because the Buccaneers are only 2-5 at home this year. Very odd
Victory: Falcons
Saints (-13) @ Panthers: Saints need this game badly in order to get the top seed in the NFC. They will play hard and I think they will win and cover
Points: Saints
Victory: Saints
Jets @ Bills (-1.5): PICK'EM #3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I were Sean McDermott, I would not play Josh Allen at all. They are locked in and Josh Allen's style might be dangerous in a meaningless game. I think the Jets will play hard and they will win to get to 7-9
Victory: Jets
Dolphins @ Patriots (-16): The Pats have a tendency to rest players in the second half of these types of games so I think they won't cover but they will win.
Points: Dolphins
Victory: Pats
Packers (-12.5) @ Lions: Like the Saints, the Packers need the game and I think they will pull away late to cover the spread
Points: Packers
Victory: Packers
Chargers @ Chiefs (-9.5): UPSET PICK OF THE WEEEEEEEEEEKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hear me out. With knowledge that the Patriots only need to beat Miami to lock themselves and the Chiefs into place, I dont think the Chiefs will go all out for this game. I think they will begin to rest starters in the second half, allowing the Chargers to come by and steal the game.
Points: Chargers
Victory: Chargers
Titans (-3.5) @ Texans: Texans are locked into the 4th seed. Tennessee needs the game badly to secure a WC spot. Titans will get it
Points: Titans
Victory: Titans
Colts (-4) @ Jaguars: I think the Jaguars have packed it in for the year and the Colts will roll right past them
Points: Colts
Victory: Colts
Redskins @ Cowboys (-11): I honestly don't know what to make of Dallas. I think they will win but covering by 11 points against a Skins team that has shown improvement? I don't think so.
Points: Redskins
Victory: Cowboys
Eagles (-4.5) @ Giants: All year we have seen the Eagles, when they have needed a victory badly come through. This will not be a cakewalk because the Giants will show up, but I think the Eagles will pull it out in the end and win the NFC "Least"
Points: Giants
Victory: Eagles
Steelers (-1.5) @ Ravens: PICK'EM #4!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Same advice I gave to Sean McDermott; I give to John Harbaugh. Don't play Lamar Jackson at all. Having said that, I think the Ravens can win anyway. The Steelers offense is god awful. And their defense can be had on the ground. I will take the Ravens backups
Victory: Ravens
Cardinals @ Rams (-5): The Rams aren't great, but I can see the young Cardinals having a let down after going into Seattle and beating the Seahawks. I think the Rams will win easily.
Points: Rams
Victory: Rams
Raiders @ Broncos (-3.5): It would be so Raiders if 3 of the 4 things they need to get to the playoffs happen and they can't win. For some reason, I think they will hear about the other games and will be let down. Broncos will win I think
Points: Broncos
Victory: Broncos
Niners (-3.5) @ Seahawks: This year has not been the normal year for Seattle at home. So despite the Niners defense looking shaky in recent weeks, I will take the Niners as the overall stronger unit to win and clinch the NFC West
Points: Niners
Victory: Niners
