I faded the Bears last week thinking they would rather face Minny who they have controlled this season, over the defending champs and St Nick at QB. But the coach has the players behind him and this team is really a tough club on both sides of the ball. I just think the Bears defense will maul this team. And the Philly defense is average on its best day. 4* Money Maker CHICAGO BEARS

Taking the CHARGERS. Had the Chargers a couple weeks ago at home and the Ravens hurt our bankroll. But will fade Baltimore again. LAC defense now with some good tape on Thomas. This is a good team. You don't go 7-1 on the road winning in every time zone in American, and London with fluke plays. The defense is a top 10 rush unit which is where the Ravens strength comes from. Let's just look at their road games. At Seattle where it is always tough to play (ask KC who lost there). Steelers did fade or choke their 2nd half away. But down 13-0 and 23-3 and winning. How about down 14-0 early and 28-21 late and winning in KC? Baker Mayfield just threw for 357 vs this defense. Yes, Baltimore won in LA after the Chargers were locked in the playoffs while Ravens were desperate. Now you have a rookie QB as a fave over a HOFer - No way. Take out that win in LA and Baltmore, 6-1 behind the rookie, beat the Bengals, Falcons, Raiders, Bucs and Browns. That's a 29-50-1 record and zero playoff teams. 10* Money Bomb LA CHARGERS

Taking the COWBOYS today. 24-13 was the score back in September when these guys met in Seattle. Different teams now. Yes, Seattle has won 4 of the last 5 and 2 of the last 3. But do we want Matt Cassell at QB and Tony Romo in our ratings here. Let's look at Dak at QB and an 0-2 record losing 24-13 and 21-12. Not winning many games putting up 12.5 points a game. Dallas had played poorly in Jerry's World. But 7-1 this year. They have been playing well since November. And even losing fading them last week vs the Giants, you have to like that they wanted to win the game. Seattle just 4-4 on the road this year. 4 wins vs Raiders, Lions, Cardinals and Panthers. 4 teams with sub .500 records on the season. Lost at Denver by 3. Lost at San Fran by 3. Lost at Rams by 5. Lost at Bears by 7. Since their only home loss, Tenn MNF 28-14, the 'Boys have reeled off a 7-1 record. This game is basically a PK. I see -1's but will just go ML. As long as their crappy coach doesn't have his usual brain-farts, Dallas should be moving on the next round. 5* Best Bet DALLAS COWBOYS

Taking the TEXANS. Man. No love at all for Houston. Way too much talk on Indy here. I have to play this just on principle. Look. I know the Texans were gifted some wins by bad coaching by some coaches. Heck. He is facing one of those guys today. Colts were just 4-4 on the road this year. Beat Titans last Sunday night. Beat Houston here nearly a month ago. Beat the Raiders scoring 21 unanswered in the 4th back at the end of October. And beat the Redskins in Week 2. Losses at Philly, NE, Jets and that 6-0 clunker vs the Jaguars. Colts for all intention purposes have been playing win or go home games since Week 7. When you start 1-5, you really need to start winning games. They need to rally back against the woeful Giants. And in the Dallas game, look, we had the Colts there. That was a prime flat spot for Dallas off b2b home wins over Saints and Eagles, and Eagles game going to that wild finish and then OT. Texans quietly got their 11 wins and they move on this afternoon. 4* Money Maker HOUSTON TEXANS

Hokies had to pay Marshall to come play to qualify and be bowl eligible. I think the Herd took the payday and got ready for their bowl game (who we cashed with) as it was 21-7 after 1 and off to the races. Back to the Hokies. This isn't Beamer ball.

Taking the VIKINGS. So we like the UNDER in this game also. Same thinking. If you like the Bears here, then you must be all over the 0-7 on the road SF 49ers beating the 12 win Rams as double digit dogs. No cover. Winning. I can't see it. You are telling me the Bears will be pulling new tricks out of their bag, and throwing in new wrinkles to confuse Minny who they are more than likely playing again next week. They want to try to knock out the Vikes to face the defending champs, Eagles with Foles behind center who the team does nothing but rally behind? Not buying it. Taking the Vikings who seem to have turned the offense around since canning their OC. 8* Sure Shot MINNESOTA VIKINGS

Taking the RAVENS. Another Super Contest pick for me.. Tied for 42 heading into the final Sunday. So I like Baltimore. Everyone will be on the upstart Browns. I think this defense is too much for the rookie to deal with on the road. Ravens bringing some fire today - let's not forget a TD pass with 40 something seconds left, at home, to knock them out of the playoffs last year. Focused, they deliver us the W . 5* Best Bet BALTIMORE RAVENS

Taking the PACKERS. So we had the Jets last week and Rodgers came to play. So there is zero chance I don't back him at home. No way he lets the Lions come in here and hand him an L. Detroit 2-29 SU last 31 here. Packers with a lame duck fill in HC. He will let Rodgers do whatever the heck he wants to do. Again - Rodgers came to play in the Meadowlands. Down 14-0, 21-7, 35-20. There was no quit. And I expect the same here at home. Domers like the Lions want nothing to do with the weather in Green Bay last Sunday in December. 4* Money Maker GREEN BAY PACKERS

Taking the BILLS. These guys haven't given up. They did lose (covered late) vs NE last week. But if we look at their 2 previous games at home. Beating the Lions and losing a tough one to the Jets. As we saw with the Jets vs GB, they haven't quit on their coach. This Bills team still has a pretty solid defense. And Miami wants no part of being in Buffalo in January. Back to teams showing fight. I think its safe to say the Dolphins have given up on their coach. We faded them 2 weeks ago in Minny and the Vikings ran them out of town. They still had a shot at the playoffs. And after scoring first to take a 7-0, Jags control the entire game. Nothing. No desperation. Jags off a loss to a 4th string QB picked up off the street. Where was their motivation? But pros with pride showed up for a road win. And as long as we are on road wins. How about Miami 1-11 SU last 12 on the road. 0-6 and 1-5 ATS last 6. Back on Dec. 2, Bills put up over 400 yards of offense and lost 21-17. That is what 3 TOs will do to a team on the road. 10* Money Bomb BUFFALO BILLS

I know you can only play and try to beat who is in front of you. And Arkansas State failed when it came to the better teams in conference play.

If they are fired up and ready to take out all the pain from getting blasted by Ohio State out on Florida, we will know very early. And then if you want, you could possibly buy out in some live betting. But my guess is we see them lay an egg. 10 straight wins and a spot in the Playoffs with a win vs your hated rivals. 62-39. Gators with a little revenge angle from opening game loss last season. Won't be shocked if we see another Michigan defensive player sit out either. Huge New Years Day bowl for Florida after a 4-7 season. Again. Where are the Wolverines after thinking they would be in the Sooners spot if they won? 4* Money Maker FLORIDA GATORS

Is Gus Malzahn really on solid footing to get beat in a bowl game again? Especially to what is considered a lesser program. I mean, we are talking big, bad SEC Auburn here.

Vandy was competitive in their games. I give them a pass on getting run out by Georgia. The other bad loss was to South Carolina after they played ND on the road and lost 22-17. They just ran out of gas in the 2nd half to SC. They have better talent right now with Shurmur at QB and a 1000 yard RB averaging 7 yards a carry. 8* Sure Shot VANDERBILT

KC comes in off that Thursday loss (we had LAC) with extra rest and time to stew on blowing that game. There is more going on in KC so. They lost hunt and we see a close game vs the Raiders. An OT game vs Baltimore at home. Blowing 14pt leads and losing at home. This line is 2.5 or 3 in most spots. If this game was in KC, would you be laying 8 points on a team 0-4-1 ATS last 5?

Then in their 3rd road game, it was ugly vs the Panthers. I don't think the Steelers can slow down any part of this Saints offense. Do you know what I see after 3 games like that. I see a team that can win ugly. A team that isn't, just Brees putting up 40. A team that can make some stops when it needs them.

New York not a great team. But as we saw Saturday (we ended up with a push at 7) there is no quit in this bunch. Now we have GB in off having their season officially ended by the Bears. But has this team really impressed us this year at all? They are playing for a lame-duck coach who won't be back. I think they are thinking about Christmas with their families.

Won't be shocked to see him get the boot after the way things have gone after a 6-2 start. 6 straight losses now, no QB and a coach with a cloudy future. Look - I will be the first to say Falcons were a disappointment. And I won't be shocked to see them part ways with at least their OC who wastes, arguably, the best WR in the NFL. Atlanta doesn't want to end up in the basement of the South. Sitting at 5-9, same as Tampa, I think they take care of this beaten Panthers team.

They are a tough foe right now. So Bucs in a back to back road spot. 5 wins. Looks like they have lame duck coach who could be canned after the season. Perhaps the GM heads out also. As good as the TB QB tandem has been putting up points, 31 TDs it also has 15 INTs. And we won't talk about the terrible defense. Don't be confused by last week vs the Ravens. And I type that knowing we had Baltimore to get it done. Dak won't throw the ball 23 times for 131 yards. Amari Cooper could have 100 yards by half-time. Zeke will Zeke. Cowboys need to lock up their playoff spot. This is the spot. Now next week in New York with a wild-card game vs possible Seattle after that. They win this by double digits.

Especially with a guy like Stattsford who can garbage time a back-door cover. But like last week, this play is based on the new OC getting things done. This team has been waiting to break out and I think with their season on the line again, we get another good effort. Let's not short change the defense that recorded 9 sacks last week. Safe to say Year 1 of the Patricia Era is closing out poorly. Lions scoring 16ppg and are getting out-yarded every week. Minny should crack 30 and this is a 10+ point win. 5* Best Bet MINNESOTA VIKINGS
