NFL Week 17
11:28 AM EST Saturday, December 30 2006
I was just below .500 7-8-1, but I did beat the coin by one game. Here's this week's picks:
NY GIANTS -2 over Washington
I would love to pick the Skins and use a good line that I heard "The Redskins put the last nail in the Coughlin", but in the year of the wacky NFC, I think the Giants pull it off and make the playoffs.
Jacksonville +2 over KANSAS CITY
Kansas City seems to be struggling and the win over Oakland last week did little to change my mind.
NEW ORLEANS +3 over Carolina
Why is New Orleans a home underdog?
HOUSTON -4 over Cleveland
Cleveland sucks
DALLAS -13 over Detroit
Dallas needs a big win to boost their confidence going into the playoffs and Detroit has been mailing it in for weeks.
New England +3 over TENNESSEE
I know the Vince Young story is interesting, but the magical ride ends here.
NY JETS -11.5 over Oakland
Oakland sucks.
Cincinnati -6 over Pittsburgh
Cincinnati wins, but it's not enough to make the playoffs.
Seattle +3 over TAMPA BAY
It's come to this, Seattle isn't even favored over Tampa.
MINNESOTA +2.5 over St. Louis
This could go either way, I'll take the points
SAN DIEGO -14 over Arizona
LT will have 5 touchdowns
San Francisco +10.5 over DENVER
Denver wins, but not by more than 10.
INDIANAPOLIS -9 over Miami
Indy is tough at home
Atlanta +8 over PHILLY
This falls into the "Any time a team is a 7 point or more underdog and you think they have a legitimate chance to win the game..." category. That category needs a shorter name.
BALTIMORE -9 over Buffalo
Baltimore wins big
CHICAGO -3 over Green Bay
Chicago's D will give Farve problems.
Last Week: 7-8-1
Overall: 95-78-1 (54.91%)
Coin Last Week: 6-9-1
