Yeah, this is a strange one. The sharps all knew the weather and the over/under shifted massively, but the spread stayed put. :?:

Buffalo radio says this is political, it's actually not going to be that bad tomorrow.

Ditto.

I took that under, but have now erased it from my picks this weekend.

Looks like Phibes will be jumping into the lead this week. I may have to roll the dice and use my Super Potty Pick just to try and keep up.

You are IN with that pick, Biggie.

Your GB @ DAL over is looking good.

This was comfortably in hand at halftime.

At halftime I nearly put up a post here saying that your LAR @ DET over pick was looking fine.

Tough loss for the Rams, btw.

PIT @ BUF 38.5 under


I am going to pull the trigger on this one.
Cold, some snow, windy, one QB in his first playoff game, two defensive head coaches.
