With two weeks to go, the best bets season record is now 26-18-1, which means I am assured of finishing over .500 for the regular season.
I went 2-1 last week, with the only loser being Atlanta plus-2 against the Steelers.
The two winners were the 49ers plus 10 1/2 against Seattle -- thanks for the 1/2 point -- and the Bengals minus-1 against Cleveland (thanks for Johnny Manziel stinking it up.)
This week, I can feel a 3-0 week coming on. The goal now is to finish 10 games over .500 for the regular season. Let's get it going.
Steelers minus 3: I love the Steelers here. They have an explosive offense and the Chiefs don't. I can't see the Chiefs defense slowing down this Pittsburgh offense. Ben Roethlisberger and company will have a big day. Steelers roll.
Cardinals plus 8 1/2: Even with Ryan Lindley on the field, this is too many points for Seattle to be giving on the road. The last two times these teams have met, the best defense on the field has been Arizona's. They will keep it close with a good defensive effort.
Falcons plus 6: Both these teams need this to have a shot to win the bad NFC South. I think the Falcons have played much better in their last two games, both losses, and that will show up here. The Saints no longer have that home-field mystique. They've lost four consecutive games at home. I think the Falcons will not only cover, but they win the game with a late drive.
