Free NFL Picks from Stephen G. for week 17

The final week is one of the hardest weeks to handicap given all the teams that are either out of it or teams that may rest starters for the playoffs.  Personally I’ve found the whole year hard to handicap, but enough whining, let’s get on with the picks.  I’m not a pro handicapper with NSAWins.com, just a jamoke trying to string a few wins together….

Last Week 5-4 (56%)

Season 59-67-1 (47%)

Sunday 1/3

Dallas minus 3 – The girls have hit their stride and are playing well, as are the Birds…  But in a season where NY swept Dallas and Philly swept NY, I say Dallas sweeps Philly and wins the division.

Pittsburgh minus 3 – Big Ben will have his way with the poor pass defense of Miami.  The Steelers need help to get in the playoffs, but unless they beat the Fish, its a moot point…

Cincinnati plus 10– Cincy may rest some starters, but you can’t rest everyone and I can’t see NY beating anyone by 10 with that QB of theirs, I’ll take a flyer on Cincy showing up and having 10 pts to play with….

San Diego minus 3.5 – I don’t care who SD rests, they should still beat a Redskin team that completely packed it in weeks ago.  They can’t wait for this season to end, so I’ll go with the Chargers who will want to end on a good note before the bye week.

Oakland plus 10.5 – The Raiders will play hard and try to spoil Baltimore’s season.  The Black Hole has been a tough place for east coast teams this year and while I see Baltimore winning, I see it being tighter than they’d like….
