Week 17... final week of the regular season. Over these past few weeks, I have generally been up and down with my predictions... going 12-4 in week 14, dropping to 7-9 in week 15, then rebounding for another 12-4 week in the 16th week of the season. My record for the season to date for all of the first 16 weeks is 154-86... slightly better than where I was at this time last year (150-89-1).
Picking games in the last week of the regular season is always, I've found, the most complicated. Not knowing for sure which teams will rest their starters and even then, how exactly that will effect the outcome of their games. But, last year I was 9-7 in the final week... overall, not too bad all things considering.
Here are my picks for each of the week 17 games...
Buffalo over Indianapolis
Minnesota over New York Giants
Tampa Bay over Atlanta
San Francisco over St Louis
Pittsburgh over Miami
Carolina over New Orleans
Chicago over Detroit
New England over Houston
Cleveland over Jacksonville
Dallas over Philadelphia
Tennessee over Seattle
San Diego over Washington
Oakland over Baltimore (Major Upset Alert!)
Denver over Kansas City
Green Bay over Arizona
New York Jets over Cincinnati
Happy New Year!
