These are in order from my most confident pick to least confident. Lines are based on the current spreads at the Caesars Sportsbook.

Seattle (-3.5) vs. Carolina- (Sun) 4:25– The Panthers have played hard for their interim but I don’t think they are good enough to fly cross country and compete against a playoff caliber Seahawk team.

LA Chargers (+3.0) vs. Miami- (Sun) 8:00- This is a must win game for the Chargers’ playoff hopes, and I think the home crowd will get them through this one.

Minnesota (+2.5) at Detroit- (Sun) 1:00– The Lions can’t really be favored against a 10-2 Viking squad can they.

Arizona (+1.0) vs. New England- (Mon) 8:00– The Pats have overachieved all season and the Cardinals have underachieved. I think those roles will reverse for this clash in Glendale.

NY Giants (+7.0) vs. Philadelphia- (Sun) 1:00– Divisional clashes between two good teams are almost always close games.

Last Week’s Record: 3-2, Overall Season Record: 37-28
