Continue reading →: Kansas City Chiefs at New England Patriots: 2015 AFC Divisional Pick
Kansas City Chiefs (12-5) at New England Patriots (12-4) This one’s tough. The Patriots should be able to cover this 5 point spread at home against the Chiefs. The Chiefs have famously won 11 straight games since a 1-5 start, but who did they beat over that time period? Buffalo?…

Green Bay Packers (11-6) at Arizona Cardinals (13-3) The Cardinals clobbered the Packers 38-8 at home just 3 weeks ago back in week 16, so people don’t seem to be giving the Packers much of a chance. However, as the Vikings showed last week, even though a team blew you…

Continue reading →: Pittsburgh Steelers at Denver Broncos: 2015 AFC Divisional Pick
Pittsburgh Steelers (11-6) at Denver Broncos (12-4) Pittsburgh entered the post-season as a trendy sleeper pick to go all the way, thanks to a high flying offense led by arguably the best quarterback/pass catcher duo in the NFL in Ben Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown. They finished 9th in rate of…

Continue reading →: Green Bay Packers at Washington Redskins: 2015 NFC Wild Card Pick
Green Bay Packers (10-6) at Washington Redskins (9-7) The Redskins come out of the NFC East, arguably the weakest division in football, but they’ve turned into a pretty good team. They rank 14th in rate of moving the chains differential, worst among playoff teams, but they’re hot right now and…

Continue reading →: Seattle Seahawks at Minnesota Vikings: 2015 NFC Wild Card Pick
Seattle Seahawks (10-6) at Minnesota Vikings (11-5) The Seahawks smoked the Vikings in Minnesota back in week 13, winning 38-7. However, the trio of linebacker Anthony Barr, safety Harrison Smith, and defensive tackle Linval Joseph, arguably the Vikings’ 3 best defensive players, played a combined 19 snaps in that one,…

Continue reading →: Pittsburgh Steelers at Cincinnati Bengals: 2015 AFC Wild Card Pick
Pittsburgh Steelers (10-6) at Cincinnati Bengals (12-4) This is the game that I have the least strong opinion on. The Bengals rank 5th in rate of moving the chains differential on the season, while the Steelers rank 9th, but the Steelers have been far better offensively in the 12 games…

Continue reading →: Kansas City Chiefs at Houston Texans: 2015 AFC Wild Card Pick
Kansas City Chiefs (11-5) at Houston Texans (9-7) The Chiefs are favored by 3.5 points here in Houston. It’s not hard to understand why that’s the case. The Texans are seen as a team that’s only in the playoffs by default, after winning the weak NFC South; they’ve also already…

Continue reading →: Tennessee Titans at Indianapolis Colts: 2015 Week 17 NFL Pick
Tennessee Titans (3-13) at Indianapolis Colts (7-8) This is another one where I wouldn’t touch either side with money. Both teams have serious quarterback problems. The Colts are on to their 4th quarterback of the year, Josh Freeman. Matt Hasselbeck was playing in the absence of starting quarterback Andrew Luck,…

Continue reading →: Oakland Raiders at Kansas City Chiefs: 2015 Week 17 NFL Pick
Oakland Raiders (7-8) at Kansas City Chiefs (10-5) This is another one I don’t have a good feel for. The Chiefs are favored by a touchdown, which I think is a little much, considering the Chiefs rank 10th in rate of moving the chains differential, while the Raiders rank 15th.…

Continue reading →: Pittsburgh Steelers at Cleveland Browns: 2015 Week 17 NFL Pick
Pittsburgh Steelers (9-6) at Cleveland Browns (3-12) The Steelers lost last week as huge road favorites in Baltimore, but they get a 2nd chance this week and I like their chances of bouncing back this week as 11 point favorites in Cleveland. The Browns rank 29th in rate of moving…
