NFL 8-8-1
Bowls 22-13-1. (63%)
Atlanta -3 vs Philadelphia. Saturday 4:30PM
Tough game with Eagles losing QB Wentz. Falcons are looking to get back to SB, but Eagle defense could stop them. Former starter Foles could bring enough to the qb position and if he can play to his potential, they could pull it out. Like the Falcons a lot but taking the underdog with the points.
Play
Eagles +3.
Tennessee +13.5 vs New England. Saturday 8:15PM
Beware!
Pats are solid but this will be first playoff game that is real competition. Pats played some weaklings down the stretch. Buffalo, Jets, Mia, Pittsburgh. Don't get to excited on the Steelers. The entire division was pathetic. Browns, Steelers, Ravens and Bengals were all swept by Chicago this year!
Titans can play within the number even in the cold at Foxboro. Marietta is solid and Pats still lack enough defense. A turnover or two, could lead to a shocking upset!
Play. Tennessee +13.5
Jacksonville +7 vs Pittsburgh. Sunday 1:00PM
Its the ground game(Leonard Fournette) that Jacksonville has, that will determine the outcome in this one. Jags have the far better defense in this one as well. Steelers are soft on both sides of the ball and don't expect them to win this by 7. Jags picked off Big Ben 5 times earlier in the season and that defense is quick to get to the QB, WR Brown may also be slowed a bit, so the deep threat may not go well for the Steelers.
Road team is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 meetings.
Underdog is 9-1 ATS in their last 10 meetings.
Jaguars are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings in Pittsburgh.
NOTE: In the 30-9 Steeler loss in Pittsburgh the key starters played for Pitt. Brown, Bell and Big Ben. Brown had 150 yds receiving. Don't expect him to do that again. Remember, Steelers played in the worst divison in the AFC and maybe the entire NFL. Jags were a 7.5 point dog in Pitt in OCTOBER. Now only +7. Beware!
Play
Jags +7
New Orleans +5 vs Minnesota.
Saints are on a mission and with the Eagles losing Wentz, this is my pick to make it to the SuperBowl from the NFC. Vikings are good all around but seem to be lack killer instinct. Saints have to self-destruct to lose this and Brees is just to savvy to pass up.
Take your pick. Keenum or Brees?
