Here. We. Go. The byes in the rearview mirror, it’s full speed ahead to the playoffs with 64 games over the next four weeks to close out the regular season. There are still many teams in the playoff hunt, so try to pinpoint motivation levels, as difficult as that may be.
Get used to Saturday football. After three games this week, there are 11 on Christmas Eve in Week 16.
Underdogs went 8-5 against the spread (ATS) last week and are 110-93-5. My most confident picks ATS are Buffalo, New England, Cincinnati and Dallas. Stay away from Baltimore-Cleveland and Arizona-Denver.
