NFL Football Picks

There’s a common misconception that the Seattle Seahawks suck on the road. Most aren’t seemingly aware that the Hawks went 7-1 away from home this season. The Eagles come into this NFC Wildcard game winners of four games in a row, but that’s not as impressive as it sounds when you see that they beat the Skins, Cowboys and Giants twice. The public is heavy on the Seahawks and they might be right!

The Buffalo Bills take on the Houston Texans in an AFC Wild Card game at NRG Stadium Saturday where oddsmakers have made the Texans a slight -2.5 home favorite. Keith points out that the Bills got this far because of a weak schedule. See his other takes that support his Texans pick before placing your bets!

Minnesota dropped their last two games, but they were shorthanded two back and last week they rested numerous players for their meaningless game against Chicago. The public is two-fisting the Saints, and the oddsmaker is begging for Vikings action hanging a +8 on the board.

The Dallas Cowboys need this win BAD! The Redskins lost their starting QB Dwayne Haskins to an ankle injury. So why is Jay betting on Washington plus the points? Get his full take why here!

The Raiders are up against it in Week 17, despite having an outside shot of making the playoffs. This will be a revenge game for the Denver Broncos, winners of three out of their last four games, who are looking to close out the season strong.

One of the fishiest point spreads of the season comes into play Sunday when the Philadelphia Eagles visit the New York Giants. Trap game, bad line, etc, whatever you wanna call it, don’t get duped into being on the wrong side of this line. Loot explains why the Giants are the bet here.

Week 17 ends with a real doozy as the 49ers vs. Seahawks game has been flexed into the Sunday Night Football time slot. The 49ers have been nothing less than shocking this season at 12-3. Seattle has been pretty good as well at 11-4, but their recent loss to the Cardinals at home and the loss of all three of their running backs has left them needing to sign a semi-retired Marshawn Lynch and Robert Turbin to fill in as ball carriers. Things aren’t looking good for the Hawks here.

The Ravens are locked into home field advantage throughout the playoffs and will be resting their starters. The Steelers are fighting for their playoff lives, but have a pathetic offense. Get Keith’s recommendations and advice on how to bet this Week 17 game.

With Derrick Henry being banged up, can we really expect the Titans to be able to get past that after relying on him so much to get them to where they are? The re-emergence of Texans defensive end JJ Watt may give Houston the emotional boost it needs to come out on top in this one.

There are numerous factors that could result in the Chiefs calling off the dogs, so this game is very weak with regards to betting value. With that being said, KC will likely start out strong “just in case” to assure that they get the best possible position in the playoffs.
