Raiders at Chiefs (1:00 pm ET SUN) UNDER 45.5
NFL picks are not our forte, but this one is showing some promise. The same storm that will cause the snow in WY on Saturday will move into the plains on Sunday. It will likely be either a big rain or snowstorm for the KC area. Again, it's 5 days out, so a lot of things can change, but right now things look good for the under. Oakland may also be a good bet if adverse conditions develop as the high powered pass attack of KC will be shut down.
Update: Not looking good for this one, at least rain wise. The storm is moving too quickly, and it should dry out before gametime. However, it will be VERY windy behind the storm, so that in itself may be enough for a pick.
Niners at Packers (1:00 pm ET SUN) UNDER 42.5, SF +4.5
Another potential NFL pick... rare for us. But this one looks pretty good- it will likely be a pretty rainy afternoon in Green Bay with temps in the 30s on Sunday. (I doubt it turns to snow, but it's still 3 days out) If the rain is heavy enough, we may squeak out a warm pick on the under. A better choice might be to take SF. The last time Farve played in rainy and cold conditions he was atrocious- fumbling the ball, terrible passes... his thumb just does not respond well to these conditions. Plus, the rain potentially looks a lot heavier than the Monday night game.
