Well it is the final week of the NFL season as we know it and it comes down to a few team trying to make the playoffs and and a few trying to tank to get a better draft pick.Coming into the final week of the NFL season my YTD record stands at 61-42-5 ATS as last week a few teams blew it for me in the 4th qtr but you move on as there isn't anything you can do about it so with that here is what I like on Sunday:

NY Giants (-6) Cowboys have nothing to play for and will rest starters so with this being outside in the cold I look for Barkley to have a big day on the ground and possibly Eli Manning last game at home I think they play hard for him and go out and win here over the Cowboys I will say 20-7.

New Orleans (-7) This will be a small bet for me but the Saints like Teddy Bridgewater and the backups will play hard for him in this game and the Panthers have quit they are done and i think the water boy is playing QB for them give me the Saints in the home finale.

Jacksonville (+7) The Texans are beat up and with Thomas being out for the year and Hopkins getting extra attention, Miller probably rusty at RB and Watson to me is getting no protection from his O line concerns me and with the playoffs coming newt week for them a team I thought could go far might be out early as there is a hint for you if they play who think they play (Colts) who we will talk about in my plays.

Buffalo (-6) The Dolphins laid in egg last week at home against Jacksonville when you still had a chance and now play up in the cold in Buffalo who thought they got screwed the last time these 2 teams played and outplayed them.The Dolphins packed it in and will quit yet again when they get behind they have the bags packed and cant wait to get out of Buffalo to get back to South Beach for New Years Eve.

Pittsburgh (-14.5) I know this is a big number but the Bengals blow and Cleveland let off the Gas in the 4 Qtr against them.Once they get behind the yet again against the Steelers its all over for the Bengals as I think the Steelers take out all there frustrations out on them as they will be home for the playoffs and Tomlin should get canned on Monday but wont.

Cleveland (+7) I have been a sharp critic of the Browns over the years as I live in the area but they have gotten there act together this year and I will give them props for turning it around as they have a bright future ahead I think as they have guys in place that know how to pick the right players and know how to win.The game on Sunday should be a classic as to me it will come down to the 4th qtr as I think the Browns will find ways to contain Jackson and the team plays hard for Mayfield. I know the Steelers fans will be rooting for the Browns and might get there last Christmas gift but we will see.

LA Chargers (-6.5) This again will be a small bet but the Broncos also have packed it in and it showed on Monday night against the Raiders as the Broncos are banged up and they know the coach is gone so why try.The Chargers should get some revenge on them for blowing the game and it is really costing them now for the last time they blew the lead in the 4 Qtr as they could be winning the division but now have to go on the road next week.

Indy (-3) This is my suckers bet of the week but Im still taking the Colts as I havent seen one person on the Titans but Mariota is banged up and isnt 100 % but the Colts center is out I believe also for this game.I think the Colts come out on top with Luck leading the way and making the playoffs.Then if I think what happens on Sunday the Colts play Houston in the playoffs and they can beat them as they did a couple of weeks back but lets find out what happens first before we talk PLAYOFFS.

BOL to everybody on Sunday and I want to wish everybody a Happy New Year and be safe !

Oh Gravy Train, GO COLTS!! Let's get this!

I've seen several people say everyone here is on IND. But current public $ is split almost even. TEN has won 4 straight & not too much regular bettors know about Luck's domination over TEN or their key injuries.

Let's both end reg season on high note my friend. :toast:

Add 1 more for today

Minny (-6) I think when the Rams are beating up the 49ers the Bears will start benching guys because they will be score board watching and have to play next week so the NFL was kind of smart moving games that mattered but it makes it rougher for the gambler.Lets see if Kirk Cousins was worth the money they paid him this year because the Vikings better hope he is.

Just a quick update for my record keeping as I go 4-5 ATS on the day and that brings my overall YTD record to 65-47-5 ATS which by far was my best NFL regular season that I had in a long time.I had a winning day on Sunday as I bet good on the Bills,Browns and Colts but I just have to remember when teams dont give a crap like the Saints and Jags not to bet on them but lesson learned and go on from there.

Gravy, what are your favorite places to eat in Cleveland and/or things to do?

I go about once a month. The Jack usually puts us up at The Ritz, so am downtown. We usually eat at Morton’s, Barrio, and Mabel’s because they are close. You can’t beat the happy hour deal at Morton’s. We always go the the Jack. Have done the R&R HOF, wasn’t impressed. Enjoy the West Side Market.
