NFL Week 17 Picks (1 Viewer)

[Eminence]

Week 17 plays:

Bills -3.5 (HOME)

Redskins -3 (HOME)

Bears -3 (AWAY)

Packers -3.5 (AWAY)

Ravens +3 (AWAY)

Confidence of picks:

1.) Chicago Bears.

2.) Green Bay Packers.

3.) Washington Redskins.

4.) Buffalo Bills.

5.) Baltimore Ravens.

1.) Chicago Bears

The Chicago Bears are playing in a must-win game against the 4 - 11 Detroit Lions. The Lions have only won 2 games at home all season long and despite the desire to play spoiler against their division rival, I just don't think they have it in them. The Lions will not be able to stop Brandon Marshall and Charles Tillman held Calvin Johnson to 3 catches for 34 yards when these teams matched up in Week 7.

2.) Green Bay Packers.

If the Packers win this game, they will clinch a first-round bye. Furthermore, the Packers are coming into this game red hot winning their past 4 games. The Packers are a team that is playing playoff caliber football, throw in the fact that they already beat the Vikings 14 - 23 earlier in the season.

It comes down to this, First Round Bye vs Playoff Birth. I'll take the former Super Bowl MVP.

3.) Washington Redskins.

The first high-pressure game of Robert Griffin III's career and if anyone has seen this guy play earlier this year, he's got the goods. Former Heisman Trophy winner, he has the chance to showcase his talent under the national spotlight and embarrass Tony Romo again.

Robert Griffin III: 20 Touchdowns / 5 Interceptions

Tony Romo: 26 Touchdowns / 16 Interceptions.

The Redskins already beat the Cowboys 38 - 31 on the road earlier this season and after falling short to the Saints last week, the scene has been set perfectly for Robert Griffin III to clinch the division at home in Week 17.

4.) Buffalo Bills.

This is more of my lack of confidence in the Jets as opposed to having confidence in the Bills. With Greg McElroy scheduled to start Week 17, I don't expect the Jets to have much offense whatsoever. At home, I can see the Buffalo Bills offense coming alive in the final week of the season against a defeated Jets team. I don't think the Jets can stop CJ Spiller.

5.) Baltimore Ravens.

I'm not really sure WHY the Baltimore Ravens are the underdogs on this bet. Regardless, neither the Bengals or Raven can change their playoff seeding by the outcome of this game. Last week, the Bengals BARELY snuck by an average Pittsburgh Steelers football team, a game they needed to win to even make the playoffs. So, it's not like this team is dominating other teams by any imagination.

John Harbaugh will have his team playing at a high level, the Bengals have talent but don't forget Baltimore blew this team out 44 - 13 Week 1.

People like you are the reason I'm probably going to stop posting here or be less active for the 2013 season. When you're right about something, no one will give you any credit; when you're wrong everyone comes out of the woodworks to spit in your face.Last week I was 5 / 5 on my picks.

My analysis on all of these games was rock-solid in my opinion. If you would have DISPUTED me BEFORE you knew the results of these games I'd take your response with actual credibility but given your spiteful approach you can shove it.

Hindsight is 20 / 20 bro.

EDIT: And for the record, had I known the Ravens were going to straight-up rest starters, I wouldn't have suggested to bet on them. As of right now the past two-weeks (excluding the Raven's game) I am:

6 - 3.

Talk ####, I'm still up.

My analysis on all of these games was rock-solid in my opinion.

come on, you were not 'rock solid' even with your analysis.>The Lions will not be able to stop Brandon Marshall

they held marsh to 42 yards

>Green Bay Packers

no analysis here. you just said what they did earlier in the season

>The first high-pressure game of Robert Griffin III's career

i dont know. he has been in a must win situation every week since november.

>With Greg McElroy scheduled to start Week 17

sanchez

>I don't think the Jets can stop CJ Spiller.

59 yards on 24 carries = 2.45 ypa

the jets have been good vs the run over the past month or so

>I'm not really sure WHY the Baltimore Ravens are the underdogs on this bet.

nothing to play for. this was the case since week 16 finished

>Baltimore blew this team out 44 - 13 Week 1

16 weeks ago

come on, these are terrible. there is no insight here. it's okay if your wrong, but at least explain why you thought what you thought. otherwise, there is nothing to gain from this thread.

EDIT: And for the record, had I known the Ravens were going to straight-up rest starters, I wouldn't have suggested to bet on them.

And the fact that you didn't even consider this possibility in your week 17 picks means your "analysis" is pretty worthless.

This, as good as you were last week you over looked a few things this week. You are on the right track though.
