NFL Week 16 Picks
Last week's picks were 2-3, +0.5 units. My season record stands at 37-41. +7.7 units. I'm following last week's template, with a money-line pick and a teaser to spice things up. It's crunch time.
Kansas City -6.5 vs. Indianapolis: The Chiefs have rounded back into their early-season form. They should easily win by at least a touchdown at home.
Minnesota at Cincinnati over 47 points: I will ride the inter-conference angle until I drop.
Jacksonville +200 vs. Tennessee: The Jaguars should be favored, but they are relatively large underdogs. By betting them to win outright, I can get 2-1 on my money. This is a risk worth taking, in my opinion.
Pittsburgh at Green Bay over 43 points: The weather will not be a deterrent in this one. The Packers' defense is suspect, and the Steelers' defense is ossifying before our eyes.
Lastly, a five-team, six-team teaser, pays 4.5-1 if it hits:
Buffalo +8.5 vs. Miami
Cleveland +7.5 at New York Jets
Cincinnati -2
Pittsburgh +7.5
New England +8 at Baltimore
