nfl playoffs 2-2 (-1.0)
ml's 0-2 (-4.5)
Divisional Round
5* Seahawks +5
3* +180
Atlanta can't stop the run. The Earl Thomas injury concerns me and his absence seems to have the same impact as Polamalu's all too frequent absences for the Steelers back in the day. Run Rawls and Wilson with play action when the Falcons least expect it and I think Seattle wins a shootout. Beware the rushing doggy.

5* Texans +16.5 -120
1* +900
When I first saw this line I LOVED the Patriots. Generally when this happens I fade myself. Has Osweiler turned the corner? Probably not, but I think an inspired Texan D keeps them in the game. I'm sort of discounting the Patriot win earlier this year the same way that I am discounting Osweiler's win against them last year. The ml lotto ticket? I think Houston beats NE one out of 10 times in this scenario. Stranger things have happened. Worth the risk/reward imo.

7* Steelers +1.5
Here we go! Homer pick for the weekend. Chiefs can't stop the run either. Two requests. Ben, please don't get hurt because the Steelers have the absolute worst backup quarterback in the history of the NFL, organized football in general and the human race. Coach Tomlin, don't be an idiot and start going for 2 again. Le'veon should have a great day.

5* Packers +4.5
3* +175
This one worries me because we seem to have a public dog. However I will fade a rookie QB in this game against a great QB just like fading a Freshman QB in a national title game against a great QB. How 'bout them Tigers!..... I mean....How 'bout them Packers!
:toast:
Best of luck!
