I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas.
Once again starting Sunday with 2 early plays a best bet on over 47 in the Skins/Eagles game and a regular play on Oakland, Oakland won in overtime but did not cover as a regular play. The Skins/Eagles game is not known at the time of this posting. So with that being said here the rest of my picks for week 16 in the NFL.
BEST BETS
My FIRST BEST BET this week is on the CAROLINA PANTHERS on the road giving the Atlanta Falcons 7 points. After last week's close call against my Giants and the fact they destroyed the Falcons a few weeks ago makes this a very good best bet. I think with the Panthers so close to regular season perfection they will not let up and the Falcons had all they could do to beat the Jags last week. This will is not even close so I am making the Panthers my first BEST BET of the week.
My NEXT BEST BET this week is on the PITTSBURGH STEELERS on the road giving the Baltimore Ravens 10 points. Both these teams have streaks going Pitt has won 3 in a row and the Ravens have lost 3 in a row and both streaks will continue this week. I am making the red how Steelers my next BEST BET of the week.
My NEXT BEST BET is on the DETROIT LIONS at home spotting the San Francisco 49ers 9 points. The Lions looked good to me on Monday night on the road, as for the Saints almost tieing the game well I would expect with Brees at the helm it could have happened but the Lions held them off. The 49ers lost at home to a rookie qb making his first start and the 49ers qb threw 3 picks. The Lions have not beaten the 49ers in a very long time and this is the perfect spot for the Lions to take out their frustrations on a team playing out the string. The Lions will win this game easily making them my next BEST BET for this week.
REGULAR PLAYS
As for regular plays I like Kansas City at home giving Cleveland 11 points. I like Minnesota at home giving 5 points to the New York Giants minus Beckham. I like Seattle at home giving 13 points to St. Louis. I like Dallas on the road getting 6 points from Buffalo. And finally I like the OVER 45 in the Panthers/Falcons game, and the OVER 45 in the Giants/Vikings game.
Well that's it for this week in the NFL...
And as always - Remember to bet with your head and not over it.
