*Like a dummy, I forgot to post my change to the Bills (witness my end-of-game posts). Ah well. Won't be the last time

 

 

I saw those posts of yours and thought, ah dude you have Pittsburgh, that's going to sting when he figures that out.

Sorry, @touch, I told myself not to hassle with changing picks but I was typing too fast earlier.  I meant to put "SF and Under".  Sorry!

... I like a plan. 👍 I just feel like I have a pretty good handle on win loss picks. Under/Over is a mystery to me because obviously anything can happen. And LOL, I watched too many bad beats.

I hear you. I was roughly .500 during the regular season. And that was without paying too much attention to the NFL. (I get less and less interested with each passing year.) I think I went O/U once or twice, so it’s not my favorite play.

Here's our favorite Packer fan and lovely weekly NFL Recap provider Ms. Annie and her take on Wildcard Weekend.

 

 

To those of you like me who enjoy Annie Agar's posts every week we have @NCLancer to thank. NCL first shared Annie in our Picks thread a few seasons ago.  Props DUKE fan. 👊

Don't know the math on that happening but your current situation is mostly due to you thinking the Steelers +10 looked like a fairly easy road to a 40 point bonus. Maybe in another town their effort might have gotten it done, but in cold and snowy Buffalo the House has big advantage. 😃

 

 

 

 

 

 

I say find a dandy spot for your second DIP play this week, and when it hits for 30 bonus points your Terrible Towel's -20 will have been offset.

My Picks for the Divisional Round 

 

The Ravens aren't losing this game. Will they be able to cover the big number though? I love the Texans story but this game will be played outdoors up north and on winter grass. This won't be the friendly confines of Petroleum and Gas and Big Oil Stadium for Houston. Nope this will be up north under grey skies in beat up Baltimore. I will give the 9 1/2.  I will take the Under as well because this game is being played in Raven's Defense Country. 

Picks - Baltimore  and the Under

 

I was tempted to take the points with the Packers but then remembered their opponent this week is a team that is not known for folding in the Playoffs. This is the second road Playoff game for Green Bay. Last week was quite the performance. This week will be an entirely different test. I'll take the home team in this one as well. I will give the 10 points (hey it worked with Buffalo 😂). Perhaps this will be a shoot out. Who the hell knows. I have no feeling on the total in this one.  OK it could be a shoot out.  I'll take the Over.

Pick - San Fran  and the Over 

 

 

The Detroit train is gaining momentum. The Lions host for the second straight week a Playoff game. That is 2 weeks of Motown cooking for the boys. Things are good in the D. 

I will take my Lions and lay the 6 points. The scoreboard at Ford Field gets lit up. I will take the Over.

Pick - Detroit  and the Over 

 

 

I am sticking with the red and blue team from Upstate New York as they too host for a second week a home playoff game. I love me some Bills. I hate giving the Chiefs points, but this one ain't being played in Arrowhead. I will slap for a second week my DIP on the Bills -2 1/2. Again I am uncertain with the total. Well it will be played outdoors in Buffalo New York in January, so it's got to be an Under then right? 😀

Pick - Buffalo DIP and the Under 

 

 

LP is looking to stay balanced and continue his (not my normal) winning ways this week by avoiding the bad bumps that would send me to the bottom of the Standings next Monday.

... Again, I am all in for MAX QB protection but hate it when they abuse the privilege, especially someone Allens size that takes some serious contact to bring down. I am not for a flag but agree he should just be ruled down right at the faux slide. And since sliding late is a judgement call, this would bring judgement into play but that is a price QB's will just have to pay.
