Championship Carnage

As my Pats are playing this weekend, you only get one pick!

New York
@ San Francisco
Pick: New York +2.5 (I have no clue about this game)

Last week: 2-1

Playoffs: 3-4

Divisional Days

After a spectacular 1-3 performance last week, I'm hoping for the 0-fer this time around! Going to Gilette tonight, and as always no pick on the Pats.

New Orleans
@ San Francisco
Pick: San Francisco +3.5

Houston
@ Baltimore
Pick: Baltimore -9.0

New York
@ Green Bay
Pick: New York +7.5

Last week: 1-3

Playoffs: 1-3

Wild Card Weekend

And my last week in Norway is underway! Expect lots of fun and lots of whisky. As the regular season closed out last week, there are only 11 games left. But it's the playoffs! and the stakes are higher. Just ask Tebow. Anyhoo, round 1...

Cincinnati
@ Houston
Didn't like this at all. Simmons loves the Texans here, but personally I think Red Rifle and ROTY candidate AJ Green can wreck some havoc on Houston's decent D. For this reason I have to take the points.
Pick: Cincinnati +3.0

Detroit
@ New Orleans
Stafford is good, Megatron is a beast...and that's really all you can say about these Lions. Shootout warning, but I think the Saints are going to make the Lions chase them all day, and with the skill players at Brees' disposal, even the mighty Megatron will fall short. I'm not crazy about this pick because we all saw what happened last year when Marshawn Lynch went Beastmode on the Saints. And 11 points is a mother and a half in terms of spreads. I'm still debating whether this is the right choice, and I probably will be doubting myself until the game ends. I did hit the over on this one, even at a solid 59 points. Straight up I think the Saints take it, but the extra point here allows me to go Lions where they can cover even if they are losing by ten.
Pick: Detroit +11.0

Atlanta
@ New York
Ugh. Sheli wins.
Pick: New York -3.0

Pittsburgh
@ Tebow
The Steelers are hurting. Tebow has been God awful (heh, get it?) the last three games and Denver literally backed into the playoffs. They should be happy just to be here. But stranger things have happened. I am going Pittsburgh here, but this is the one that I have no idea about.
Pick: Pittsburgh -9.0

Last week: 3-10-2 (ugh)
