Week 17 Picks

Steelers -6 (-125) I just see Pittsburgh, with a “win-and-get-in” situation for the bye and the division, take care of a struggling Browns team at home today.  Plus out of all the lines where this type of situation occurs, this one is the most reasonable to bet on, even with the juice. Falcons -13 John [...]

Week 16 Picks

GB -3 vs NYG Eli Manning (who NEVER talks) spoke up in the locker room this week, telling his team to shake off that last epic fail of a loss vs Philly and speaking the importance of this game vs Green Bay, who looked awesome on Sunday night and probably would of won if Rodgers [...]

NFL Playoff Line Pick’em Challenge

Week 17

KC +12 @ Denver Got this in the second just after McDaniels benched Scheffler AND Marshall for a game (now @ +10), they need to win to have any sniff of the playoffs.  How this team even made the 7 win under/over total a sweat after starting 6-0 makes me wanna puke.  So does the [...]
