Going to make this short and sweet as it has been a long week for me work wise so I will just post the games on Saturday and be back sometime for the games on Sunday and with that here is what I like on Saturday:

Indy (+2) The Colts have been on fire coming into this matchup and to me this has suckers bet written all over it as I dont see alot of people talking up the Texans in this game much at all but to me Watson is been getting hit alot lately as his O-line is allowing alot of sacks and no run lanes as if they want to win they need ball control and have Miller chew up some yards in this game to keep luck off the field and who can step up in the passing game to help out Hopkins in the pass game with Thomas now out somebody needs to maybe a tight end who knows.The Colts need to establish a run game and have been doing that lately as the need Luck upright from that front 7 of the Texans coming after him as I think they blitz alot as I think they know there secondary is bad and need to do something so look for screens to the backs and Ebron in the middle of the field in make some plays for them as TY Hilton is banged up and since he kills the Texan looks for some help from the safety to roll over to the corner covering him as they need new ideas on how to stop Luck.I think this is a back and forth game butsomeone or something will hurt either team and since the Texans are really missing help for Hopkins I think Watson will force something and the Colts will take advantage and win here lets say 31-21 Colts as they move on.


Dallas (-2) To me this is a tough game to call and could go either way but to the Cowboys win here if Dak Prescott plays like he did last week against the Giants as he will have Elliott back running the ball who need to get established then open up the passing game and not make mistakes as he has all the pressure on him. The n on the Seahawks side Wilson needs to open up the passing game not sold if you can run on Dallas and dont tell me about last week when the Giants ran on them one big play and thats was about it and somehow need the tight ends to get involve seems like when they do that they win games in the playoffs but look it up .I say the Cowboys win here in a nip and tuck game 27-20.


BOL to everybody on Saturday !

Very nice Gravy Train. Obviously w/you on IND, but I believe DAL wins as well. SEA has the experience edge in POs, but really that's only a handful of players & DAL plays much better @ hm. SEA's run "D" is the key. If they force DAL to be 1 dimensional, Dak I don't think has what it takes while Wilson can carry an "O" to a pt. Like you said, interesting matchup!

BOL my friend. :toast:

Here is what I like on the Sunday games:

Baltimore (-3) Seems like everybody and their mother is on the Chargers and for good reason Jackson is making his first home playoff spot and the Chargers are the trendy pick to go to the Super Bowl with the experience Rivers at QB.The Browns kind of showed people last week and how to exploit the Ravens defense with the passing game but to me the Chargers are not willing to do it as Rivers likes to do things his own way To me Im going with a team that has the better run game and better defense playing at home and yes I know Jackson is a rookie at home and the pressure might get to him but the Chargers are beat up on defense and I just dont know if the can out physical the Ravens I dont see it and if the Ravens run the ball like they can that keeps Rivers on the bench and crying because he cant do anything when they dont have the ball and if the TE's for the Ravens make plays like they did in the last game they played I can see a carbon copy of the last game.I will say 24-13 Ravens as they move on to NE next weekend.

Chicago (-6) -buy half point- This to me is a very tough game to cap as you have Nick Foles playing yet again like he did last year and the team really rallies around him and you have the Bears making the playoffs finally in a long time since the Packers and Vikings have owned the division.To me the key to the game is can Trubisky not make mistakes and look for Tank Cohen to make plays for the Bears he reminds me so much of Dave Meggett of the Giants back in the day but better. Im going yet again with the better defense with the Bears who I think they can put some pressure on Foles and better cover Ertz but this game should come down to the 4th qtr and a big mistake will decide it.I will say Bears 27 -17.


BOL to everybody on Sunday !
