The lion and the tiger may be more powerful, but the wolf doesn't perform in the circus.

I just don't think KC can score with Pitt but who knows. It should be a good one. The other two are winners

I LOVE the Chiefs here. I'm not gonna say I circled the game, but I really hoped Pitt would steamroll Miami for the world to see, and open up KC as a small fav under -3 or even a small home dog once all the people who jumped off the Pitt bandwagon around Week 5 all came back after watching them slaughter a helpless Phins in style. I grabbed them -1.5 -101 for 1/2 unit, and hoping to get them as a small dog for the other half unit. Worse case scenario, it moves the other way, and I grab them -2.5 for that 1/2 unit. 

Atlanta I lean very strongly towards, but haven't pulled the trigger yet. Seattle has been very good to me going back to the night Beast Mode was crowned, and before i go against them when it counts, I want to explore every angle possible before i hit Atlanta. Plus I would like to get on the right side of 4. 

GB the same. I was thinking Dallas no matter what, and a short line of -3.5 is begging for me to follow through, but if it trickles up to right side of 4, I don't know how I pass up on GB right now. They will Swiss cheese that dallas defense, and if they can just be OKAY at stopping the run, and getting off the field in a lot of 3 and mediums compared to 3rd and 1s, they are gonna be tough. Plus as awesome as Dak has been....if Rodgers comes out slinging and goes up early.....the rookie in his first playoff game playing cat and mouse with Dom Capwers can wind up breaking him down. Elliot 28 carries 110 yards...that's the magic #. Keep him under that and GB covers. 

Houston I'm leaning to at +16/17-ish. That defense is the real deal. And NE has been lucky to get a long run of mediocre QB's this year to shield the fact that they CANNOT get pressure on the quarterback this season.  If they protect Osweiler, and he can just play clean, I don't see why this isn't a tight 23-17 game. 17 points is bananas especially when it's a top 3 defense we are talking about getting those points. They can be run on, but by no means is it a glaring weakness. 

GL polar bear, I think you have a winning week on your hands.

My biggest fear is NE forcing turnovers. Osweiler did step up in some big games in Denver. 16 is a lot of points, but the Pats are so opportunistic. Don't know. Clowney has become a beast. Dallas doesn't have a great pass defense, but they have a great offensive line. I'm thinking there'll be a lot of points scored.

Pulled early trigger on chiefs -1
Strong leans for me are Pats and Packers

Houston can't hang enough said I think 38-14
If GB goes up early and Dallas abandons run different game now it's the first to 30 wins kind of game I'll take GB plus the points most likely . I'm not sold on Seattle yet
Tease Pats GB Sea might look attractive

i am not going to post any picks yet, but i just cannot how anyone can possibly fathom betting on the Texans...  even if the line was 21, i wouldnt take them...

have you watched any of Osweiler this year??  a team that has no offense (hous) actually benched him to play Savage a career hack...

against the Pats in Foxboro??  please people, they have no chance... well, i guess you can always hope for a backdoor cover..  thats the only way texans can get there...

you heard it hear FIRST....   Houston will NOT score more than 10 points...  period

KC count me in, will Atlanta and Ryan choke again in the playoffs 

I have been burned before by Mr. Ice and he well might win it all this year but count me out...some players just can never rise to the next level. 

I might not bet the GB/Dallas game as I am leaning to big D. I watched a lot of their games and that Oline wears down teams towards the end of games...can GB really perform on the road and beat arguably the hottest team in football?

Brady is 1-3 ats as double digit chalk in postseason, and at a listed line of higher then 17 he is 0-5 ats in his career as double digit chalk...

Line is currently 15.5...

And since obrien has been head coach for 3 years ( a former pats assistant) they have been double digit dogs once and won SU as 10 point underdogs in Cincinnati last year.

Not trying to sway anyone's pick, but the info needs to be at the surface...

I dont like ATL at home ... last game in the Georgia Dome... New Stadium Next Year 
Although the ATL vs GB or Dal would be a lot better offensive game than Sea vs GB/Dal

This is literally what was said before Houston faced the raiders. This game will be the best defense against the best scoring defense.
