NFL Week 17 Reaction

Kansas City Chiefs (15-1) @ Pittsburgh Steelers (10-6)

The Chiefs dominated despite missing some great players and once again captured the 1 Seed in the AFC.

The Steelers now fall to 2nd place in their division.

Baltimore Ravens (11-5) @ Houston Texans (9-7)

The Ravens find themselves in 1st place in the AFC North. The Texans are now locked in to be the 4 seed.

Lamar becomes the leading rusher all time by a QB at the age of 27. He’s truly one of the most unique and talented QBs we have ever seen.

Los Angeles Chargers (10-6) @ New England Patriots (3-13)

An absolute beat down. Herbert and the Chargers are a very good team, but it still sucks to get blown out.

Maye and Gonzo are dealing with concussions so we may not see them the remainder of the year.

Green Bay Packers (11-5) @ Minnesota Vikings (14-2)

Sam Darnold has just been insane this year. The Vikings could have 14 wins and be the 5 seed this year and not have a home playoff game. The NFC is wide open this year.

Detroit Lions (14-2) @ San Francisco 49ers (7-9)

The Lions outlast the Niners in a great shootout. Purdy played well, but continues to throw bad interceptions in critical moments.

The Lions now face the Vikings in a huge Week 18 matchup.

NFL Week 16 Reactions

Houston Texans (9-6) @ Kansas City Chiefs (14-1)

The Chiefs keep rolling with another win. They are the only team that hasn’t scored 31 points that has more than 3 wins this year.

Pittsburgh Steelers (10-5) @ Baltimore Ravens (10-5)

The Ravens showed up on a mission and ran through the Steelers. This will be a great divisional race to the very end.

New England Patriots (3-12) @ Buffalo Bills (12-3)

The Pats should have won this game. Their inexperience, costly turnovers, and lack of discipline cost them dearly. It’s disappointing, but at a silver lining is they now have the 2nd pick instead of the 6th pick.

Drake Maye came into the game as the only QB in the NFL with no designed runs. That is ridiculous. They need to fully utilize him.

There were some great things we saw today. Maye completely outplayed Josh Allen. The fake punt was great and ballsy. Jerrod Mayo has started to actually show some emotion on the sideline. Using Brenden Schooler as a QB spy is incredibly creative. This team has potential, we just need to deal with the growing pains.

Game/Betting Pick Results

Game: 3-0 (39-18 This Season) (77-34 All-Time)

Spread: 2-1 (34-20-3) (73-34-4)

O/U: 3-0 (29-28) (58-52-1)

NFL Week 16 Predictions

Houston Texans (9-5) @ Kansas City Chiefs (13-1)

I think the Chiefs win, cover (-3.5), and the over (42.5) hits.

Pittsburgh Steelers (10-4) @ Baltimore Ravens (9-5)

I think the Ravens win, the Steelers cover (+7), and the over (44.5) hits.

New England Patriots (3-11) @ Buffalo Bills (11-3)

I think the Bills win, the Pats cover (+14), and the under (46.5) hits.
