NFL Saturday

Giants +4 – They outplayed expectations in Washington last week for an upset win. The way this team is running the ball they could be dangerous today and in the playoffs if they make it in.

Browns -3 – The Browns are still alive in the playoff picture and to stay there they need a win today.

Bears +9 – The cold weather is what both these teams are used to, the Bills need the win to stay in first in the AFC but will they have enough to cover here?

Seahawks +10 – As good as the Chiefs are this is a huge number, and while they are capable of covering here they are 4-9-1 ATS.

Falcons +6.5 – Its cold and both these teams run the ball a lot. While the big number may mean a B-more cover and the Falcons early season cover machine has slowed down I’m still taking my chances with the points here.

Texans +3 – The Titans in a must win situation, Henry has put up 200 in the last 4 meetings. Even with the 17-10 win last time without Tannehill vs. these Texans I’m still taking the points here.

Lions -2.5 – Detroit 10-4 ATS this year, this team is playing well and it looks like Goff rising back up the QB rankings may have been as overlooked as this Detroit team to start the season. They have had some struggles on the road and in the cold in Charlotte the Panthers may pull the upset. I’ll take my win or loss with the Lions here.

Bengals -3 – With 3 healthy receivers it’ll be interesting to see how the Patriots slow down the Bengals. They have themselves in the playoffs and now look toward the AFC North. Patriots after a loss have been 7-0 and at home in December in the snow they are a threat to win. I still like the Bengals here.

Commanders +7 – Its a must win for Washington as they sit in playoff position by the tie they had instead of a loss. Purdy not on injury report but they say he is still hurt. I like Washington +7.

Cowboys -4 – Its gone to 4.5 and while the Cowboys should win, they are in the playoffs and not likely to advance to winning the division. I like they Cowboys but I’m not sure they are really in need in maximum effort. I like the Cowboys but if the Eagles turn this into a bar brawl they could pull the upset even with Minshew who is 2-0 in his 2 starts for Philly.

Raiders +2.5 – Both teams at 6-8 a rematch of the Immaculate Reception on the day they are retiring Harris and number 32 at Heinz field. That extra on the Pittsburgh side has fans feeling nostalgic, but the Raiders beat them last year and in 2018 with Carr and the deep ball causing problems. The weather may end up slowing down the Raiders ability to pass but they really “should” have a few more wins than they do.
