One Play for this week and I'm making it a teaser since I feel it gives me the best chance to win...remember...it's not how you win...it's IF you win! :yup

*Best Bet*
Small 1 Unit Play:

3 game 10 point teaser
New York Jets +12.5 over Bengals Winner!
Dallas Cowboys +6 over Eagles Winner!
Green Bay Packers +11.5 over Cards Winner!

Jets +12.5?The Jets walloped the Bengals at home last week to make the playoffs and face a banged up Bengals team that has lost 3 of it?s last 4 games SU?The Bengals offense has lacked punch since the late Chris Henry was hurt in week 9?since then the Bengals have scored just 125 points or 15.6 per game?their defense has played well this season, but the loss of rookie LB Rey Maulaluga really hurts?on the flip side?the Jets enter the playoffs with momentum having won 5 of their last 6 games and seem to have a winning recipe (a very stingy defense and a solid running game) entering the playoffs?The Jets are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games as a road underdog of 0.5-3.0..4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games?4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall?6-2 ATS in their last 8 games as an underdog?and 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games as a road underdog. The Bengals are 7-1 ATS vs. a team with a winning record?but just 7-18-1 ATS in their last 26 games as a home favorite and 7-21-1 ATS in their last 29 games as a favorite...All in all?You can throw out last weeks game between the two because the Bengals laid down, but you can?t overlook the fact that the Jets enter the postseason with momentum, while the Bengals lost 3 of their last 4 games of the season.
New York 19 Cincinnati 16

Dallas +6?The Cowboys dominated last weeks game against the Birds and are playing their best ball of the season entering the playoffs?The Eagles are a big play offense and the fact that WR Desean Jackson tweaked his groin last week could really derail the Eagles chances if he isn?t 100% this week?the loss of Center Jamaal Jackson is a huge injury for their line...I just don?t see the Eagles offense turning things around in one week against a Cowboys defense that enters the postseason with confidence?Both teams have numerous trends pointing their way but the Road team is 5-2 ATS in their last 7 meetings, the Underdog is 8-3 ATS in their last 11 meetings and the Eagles are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 meetings in Dallas?BUT?the Eagles are 0-1 SU and 0-1 ATS in the Cowboys new stadium?Closer than last week?but the healthier team lives to see next week.
Dallas 20 Philadelphia 17

Green Bay Packers +11.5 ...I?m throwing out last weeks 33-7 Packers win because the Packers played the game to win while the Cards didn?t?however?the Cardinals suffered three key injuries last week... WR Anquan Boldin suffered a significant ankle injury (which will likely make him miss this weeks contest), DE Calias Campbell broke his thumb (but expects to play with a cast) and CB Cromartie banged up his knee (but might be able to go this week)?the Cards offense will really miss Boldin this week if he isn?t able to play?on the flip side? I like the way the Packers enter the postseason having won 7 of their last 8 games SU having scored 117 points (39.0 ave) in their last 3 contests...The only think that bothers me is the fact that Cards coach Ken Whisenhunt feels that the Packers ran up the score last week and felt that the Packers game-planned for their preseason contest back in August?If the Cards have the chance they won?t let up on the peddle this week?All in all?I?m taking the Hot team with the generous 11 in this teaser because I feel they have a chance at an outright win.

No Play..No Leans...Just a game prediction.

Friday: 12/08 12:20pm est
I originally picked the Patriots in a close game 23-20 but it was a very shaky pick...but I changed my mind and I'm picking the Ravens since Randy Moss, has an undisclosed leg injury, and was not present for the start of today's (Friday's) practice.
Pats beat reported Ian Rapoport revealed that Moss has been "limping around the locker room" the past two days...My guess is Moss will play but I'm still picking the Ravens in a mild upset


New England - Baltimore
Both teams enter the postseason having won 3 of their last 4 games? but the Patriots suffered a crushing blow to their offense with the loss of WR Wes Welker last week?The Patriots will have to rely on rookie Julian Edelman to fill the void left by Welker...I still think that Tom Brady canl have success throwing the ball against the Ravens secondary?but the real key to the game will be if the Patriots are able to stop the Ravens rushing attack and make Joe Flacco beat them through the air?the first time these two team met in NE back on 10/04/09 the Ravens threw the ball 47 times (not gonna happen this time around)...the Patriots won that contest 27-21?The Ravens are 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games as a road underdog of 0.5-3.0 and 6-2 ATS in their last 8 playoff road games?but just 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 road games and 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 games as an underdog?.The Pats are 21-7-1 ATS in their last 29 games following a S.U. loss?3-1-2 ATS in their last 6 vs. AFC?5-2 ATS in their last 7 home games?but just 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games vs. a team with a winning road record and 0-4 ATS in their last 4 playoff games.
I really think the Ravens have a great chance at pulling a mild upset and winning this one outright...the Patriots were a perfect 8-0 at home this season, have won their last 11 home playoff games and Tom Brady is 14-3 in the Playoffs.
Baltimore 24 New England 23
WINNER!

Two down and one to go as both games were blowouts and over by halftime with the extra points in the tease...Packers +11.5 is pending.
