1-2 last week was the first losing week for Doc Brown in quite some time. The season record stands at 28-20 which is 58%. To get over the 60% mark, we’re going to need a 3-0 week so I’m digging especially deep for these picks. Either way, we’re still beating the vig for you which is all you can ask for. All NFL lines are based on the spreads posted at betus.com.
Cardinals -6.5 vs. Seahawks – If I could put my entire season on one game, this would be it. The Cardinals have been stinking up the joint and certainly don’t want to limp into the playoffs following a thumping by the Patriots. They want to get back on track and will do so against the Seahawks. Expect big numbers offensively for the Cardinals as they cover this line.
Cowboys +1.5 vs. Eagles – I could be wrong here, but I can’t see the the Cowboys having their season come to an end in week 17. Maybe in the playoffs, but I don’t see them losing this one. It won’t be the shootout it was in week two but the Cowboys will still come out on top. They won’t be giving up a few 77+ yard runs this time.
Broncos +8 at Chargers – Eight points is an awfully thick line. Sure, with Jay Cutler and his propensity for picks sixes no line is safe, but eight points seems just like too much for me. The Chargers may be on a roll and the Broncos heading the opposite direction, but that doesn’t mean they’ve already lost. And it also doesn’t mean that they’ll lose by more than eight. This is just too thick of a line for a game of this significance.
