@yahoo62278. There is something inside of me that will certainly not be surprised if CJ Stroud and the Texans give the Ravens fans a panic attack. Lamar on the regular season is a different quarterback from Lamar during the playoff heheheheheee.

On the Packers and Jordan Love, Christian McCaffrey is healthy and he rested during week 18. The 49ers will win the game and against the spread.

On Belichick, it might be better for him to be the head coach of the Cowboys? Dak Prescott is certainly a good QB.

The issue with Belichick and the Cowboys is Jerry Jones. Bill is going to want a lot of control and Jerry isn't going to give it up, not to mention he will meddle anywhere he can.

Belichick has been terrible picking talent from the draft for the last decade, and since Brady left he has been really bad at picking established players too, that being said if Belichick can put his ego behind him he should realize that maybe it is the time to just coach and let someone else do the work of a GM, the real issue Belichick will have with Jerry is his flamboyant personality, he likes to give a lot of interviews and if I remember right he even has a radio show and that is something Belichick will not tolerate.

Starting to take a look at the games for this weekend to place my bets, and man, only 8 teams left is depressing. I mean every season tends to go really fast, but especially this one for some reason.

I don't feel nearly as confident making picks for this week like I did last week. The games just get so much more competitive now.

That said, here's my early picks..

Ravens > Texans -9.5
Niners > Packers -9.5
Lions > Bucs -6.5
Chiefs> Bills +2.5

@yahoo62278. After witnessing how the Lions played against the Rams, Baker Mayfield might win another playoff game, I reckon hehehehe.

I would like to see Baker, Jordan Love, or CJ Stroud win this year. I know the Ravens are the favorites, but the other 3 I just mentioned would be better stories. A rookie winning would possibly be history being made(I'd have to look that up), Baker was written off after Cleveland, and Jordan Love went from 0 to hero in 1 season.

Atlanta is being labeled as the favorites as Belichick has shown that he cannot win without a good QB. He hasn't been shit since Brady and honestly I think if he didn't have Brady he wouldn't have this Legacy of 1 of the greatest coaches out there. The Falcons have a QB that's not considered a top QB at all, but have the 8th pick in the Draft. They could trade up or decide to keep their spot and pick up 1 of the many QBs in next years draft.

Bill Belichick went to Atlanta and had an inteview with the Falcons. It appears that the sportsnews media are taking this and making it appear that the Falcons are the clear favorites for Belichick. I shake my head, we do not know what Belichick said in this interview and it is uncertain if the Falcons will give Belichick his demands as a head coach that also has responsibilities as general manager.

If he interviews with the Commanders, does this imply that they are the new clear favorites?

In a column published Wednesday morning, ESPN’s Dan Graziano predicted Belichick to be Arthur Smith’s replacement. The NFL insider also shed light on the mutual interest between Belichick and the Falcons.

“I think he is the clear favorite here unless another job opens that has a quarterback already in place and offers him a chance to win those 15 games he needs to pass Don Shula in short order — perhaps Dallas. Atlanta has already interviewed Belichick,” Graziano wrote.

As a giants fan last night was enjoyable end to end. When the camera panned onto the crowd it was priceless lol. I've never seen a more dominating beginning than that was. Cowboys didn't even look like they showed up to play. Now just need the eagles out of the playoffs and the world will be right again.

You got your wish, I loved seeing Baker Mayfield own the Eagles. The Eagles have been playing so bad and have lost 5 of their last 6 games, so I was pretty sure Tampa was gonna win. Only bad thing about last night was Jason Kelce retired after the game.

Had a pretty good weekend of betting. I just wish I would start putting more down when I'm feeling confident about my bets like I was this weekend. I don't feel as confident about this coming weeks bets.

Texans > Browns +2
Chiefs > Dolphins ML
Bills> Steelers ML
Cowboys > Packers -7
Rams>Lions +3
Bucs>Eagles +3

Only got one of these wrong. Even though it was a winner, I'm not so sure the ML was a good call for a 10pt spread for the Bills Steelers game.

However, if Jerry Jones wants to win a superbowl, he should give Bill Belichick everything he needs and he wants. If this is giving Bill to act very much similar to a general manager while also being a head coach, give it to him. Jerry Jones is 81 years old, he will certainly want a new superbowl to bring with him in the coffin.

Jerry Jones telling his assistant to call Bill Belichick

Jerry is about as hands on of an owner as any owner is in all of sports. He doesn’t like relinquishing control in terms of GM type responsibilities. Also, while I do believe Belichick is one of the greatest coaches of all time, I do not think he’s a very good General Manager. He’s actually quite terrible when it comes to making draft picks. His recent track record is quite poor. No Brady, not sure he has any rings at all right now.

Agreed, however, the argument is he is 81 years old and he might want 1 more superbowl to bring with him to heaven hehe. He might be forced to give Belichick what he wants. It might also be good for Belichick because the Cowboys does not have a slot in the 1st round of the draft.

But if it is not Belichick, who? There are articles mentioning that Mike Vrabel and Jim Harbaugh might be the best replacements for McCarthy.

@nutildah. The Eagles' defense made the Buccaneers appear as superbowl contenders hehehehe.

I mean I guess it's possible. Maybe since he so old and time is a tickin, he will go outside his norm when it comes to hiring a coach.

I would be fine with that but I have a bet in on Eagles to cover 3. Turns out its not as easy as I had planned as they are down by 7 at the half. I forgot that the Eagles were 1-5 in their last 6 games. Sheesh. And losing to the Cardinals? Stunningly bad form. Mayfield is looking great. He is right where he needs to be for his career trajectory to resume, in a post-Brady Buccaneers.

In any case, another prediction on where Belichick will go. The Cowboys will lose this playoff game and fire Mike McCartney and replace him with Bill hehehe.

With Jerry Jones being the GM I don't think bill could stomach that.

Mike McCarthy should have been gone long ago, and people have been telling Jerry Jones to step back for decades. If the Cowboys lose today, wouldn't be surprised to see Jones make a run at Belichick. But I agree with wheelz, the only way I could see that happening is if Belichick is given total control over personnel. Would be interesting.

Anyway, the Packers are mincing them up right now. 27-0 after a pick-6, and not even half time yet.

@nutildah. Post country Taylor Swift is an agent of the Illuminati. No one is allowed to say anything bad about her hehehehe. The comedian Jokoy in the Golden Globe awards has also witnessed this after making a joke about her getting more screen time in the NFL than the awards show.

No way bill goes to the Cowboys. Hokestly I think he is done for awhile. He had a hell of a run with the Patriots why would he want to try to replicate that. Maybe I'm wrong but if belicheck goes to the Cowboys I'd be surprised. With Jerry Jones being the GM I don't think bill could stomach that.

I am not quite certain why the sportsbooks were favoring the Browns with a field goal. They have Flacco, the Texans have the rookie of the year Stroud and hometown advantage hehe. It is also quite unexpected to see that the game went to a high total of 38 points only in the first half.

On the next game, agreed to all of you on the Chiefs in the snow.

I never saw the spread anywhere for anything different than 2pts. That said, totally agree. Head scratcher.

Kind of glad I missed the first game. Was rooting for the Browns but it was a washout for them.

I got the cheifs in a cold one. I think it's supposed to be upwards of negative 10 degrees with the windchill.

Ended up being -22 with the wind chill at certain points, they said. Dropped from -5 to -9 throughout the course of the game. Definitely not Dolphins weather. Plus, Tua was born and raised in Hawaii, then played college in Alabama... he's just not built or ready for the cold weather, and it showed.

Both teams ended up missing catches due to what looked like a frozen ball & ice on the field, but Tua just couldn't function. Poor guy. I felt sorry for him. Mahomes gave him a big man hug at the end of the game, that was nice.

Here's the mandatory Taylor Swift shot for you guys, because I know you all want to see it:

They showed her every single time Kelce got more than 3 yards Cheesy

and then more in addition to that. If Al Michaels was there he woulda made a comment about it... which is why he wasn't there, lol.

The Texans Browns game was fun for the first quarter, but yeah a blow out in the end. I felt very confident they’d take it down. Just wish I had put more btc on it. I also was confident in the Chiefs, but didn’t put anything down on them, smh.

I wonder if there were any sites with T Swift props. Like wonder what the o/u was for times shown. There’s a conspiracy going around that the NFL and NBC planned for this game to be on Peacock 🦚, knowing that there’s a ton of “Swifties” who would be tuning in specifically just to see her, and we all know how obsessed they are with her, so it was a home run marketing ploy by the NFL/NBC.

Speaking of, what total horse shit putting the game on Peacock was. Corporate greed is so unbelievably bad it just keeps getting worse and worse.

Miami being used to the warm weather I think this is the worst conditions they could see. Tough to air it out downfield to hill when the ball feels like a cement block. Think it's gonna be a pound and ground game. Cheifs in a 19-17 win at home to move on!

Miami almost beat the Bills last year in the freezing snow.

Steelers run game in the snow vs bills may make that game a real squeeker that I'd stay away from.
* Looks like the game is postponed
