Well, folks, when you're right 52% of the time, you're wrong 48% of the time
New England -6.5 @ BuffaloNew England has to win to make the playoffs, have scored 40+ points the last two weeks and Buffalo has a bottom ten pass defense.
Jacksonville @ Baltimore -12.5
Baltimore controls their playoff destiny. A win and they're in. Jacksonville's season has been over for a while and they face the number one defense on the road.
Drew Brees passes for more than 401.5 yards, breaking Marino's record. The Saints have flown the white flag. They put Reggie Bush on the IR when they still had an outside shot at the playoffs. Getting Brees the passing record would be a great motivator for the other players, not just the offense, but the defense too. 402 yards passing is a ton of yards against a good defense, but Brees at home is definitely capable.
Bay Area pick:
Cal -8 v. Miami in Emerald Bowl
A de facto home game for the Bears at AT&T park. Miami is traveling across the country and has suspended 5 players for this game including the starting quarterback. Cal is averaging 183 yards rushing per game (29th) while Miami is allowing 146 yards rushing.
