For Jack of a Better Name

Rams at Saints -3 A rematch we’ve been waiting for since week 8. Todd Gurley vs Alvin Kamara and Sean Payton vs Sean McVay. In this matchup, we get the #1 and #2 seeds playing in the super dome which will lead to a high scoring game I think. In a rematch, I like the Rams even though the Saints are the better team.  Rams win. Patriots at Chiefs  -3 Another rematch from earlier this year and the 1 and 2 seeds facing off. I think the Chiefs are too much for the Patriots at home. Mainly because the Patriots will always take away a teams #1 target but they did that against the Chiefs last time and Tyreek Hill went crazy. In this rematch I like the team that lost last time but the Patriots will keep it close. Chiefs win.

Combining Saturday and Sunday for this week's picks. Indianapolis at Kansas City -5.0 5 is the last spread I have so that's what I'm going with. I like the Colts to keep it close it's more of a field goal game to me but I think Mahomes and the offense are too explosive. Chiefs win Colts cover. Dallas at Los Angeles -7 I think a touchdown is way too big of a margin for a Rams team that has not played a meaningful game in a while. Cowboys to cover Rams still hold on. Los Angeles at New England -4 Here it is an upset special. The Chargers are going to walk into Gilette Stadium and shock the Patriots with their balance of offense and defense. Chargers to win and cover. Philadelphia at New Orleans -8 This finishes the underdog love. I know he has that Big Nick Energy but so do all the Saints. Brees, Thomas, Kamara, and Ingram are too much for the Eagles to handle. Saints to win and cover.

I'm still not celebrating the regular season until the playoffs are over. This is only for the two Saturday games for now. Indianapolis Colts at Houston Texans Even Vegas knows that this is the rubber match of the year. I'm taking Houston to win but Indy to cover the 2 points because these games are weird. Seattle Seahawks at Dallas Cowboys Seattle is too hot right now to lose to the Cowboys. Dallas is favored because they are at home and Vegas wants to be safe. But I'm trusting Pete Carroll and Russell Wilson to leave Texas with a victory.
