Rotation #465-466
Giants -1 over Redskins
The NY Giants quarterback situation couldn’t have ended better for them. Eli Manning got his proper send off in New York and it feels now like the keys have been passed to Daniel Jones and everybody is happy. The Giants pounded the Redskins in the first meeting and I have to go with them again today because the Redskins have only rookies at wide receiver and a rookie QB. These scenarios NEVER happen in the NFL so I am going to go against teams like this every single time this pops up. Both teams should move the ball on the ground today, but I don’t trust Dwayne Haskins and all rookie receivers for four full quarters. Take the Giants.

Rotation #469-470
Bengals -1 over Dolphins
The Cincinnati Bengals are on pace to get the #1 pick. This roster has a lot of talented guys who have played together for a long time so their new rookie head coach will be on thin ice next year. Miami is another football team with a rookie head coach. This is the team we thought wouldn’t win a game, but they have three. This team has promise next year. This game comes down to talent on the field. Miami is one of the least experienced defenses you will ever see in the NFL. Most of the guys on the field are rookies or were always backup players in the NFL. I wanted to also take the Over, but the wind is too much today. The Bengals have a solid running back in Joe Mixon and are the better team on both sides of the ball. It’s important for Cincinnati to grab a road win this season. Take the Bengals.

Rotation #471-472
Colts -6.5 over Panthers
The Panthers will be starting Rookie QB Will Grier today. This is a team that lost their coach and offensive coordinator mid-season and there is not a team in the NFL that uses less skilled players so opposing defenses know exactly what this team is doing. They had the ball off to only one guy and target the same four guys over and over again. Indy is coming off an embarrassing loss so the public probably is not backing them today because of that. This is still a talented defensive football team that just so happen to catch Drew Brees on a historic night. This unit will seek redemption and Will Grier is the victim. Take the Colts.

Rotation #475-476
Cowboys -2.5 over Eagles
The Cowboys have won 4 straight in this series and can take the NFC East with a win today. Dallas is unpredictable on the road, but in this spot I have to take the team that is loaded with talent against a team that has been hit hard with injuries this year. Nobody on this Eagles Offense scares you down field. This Eagles Secondary has given up long plays to bad QB’s all season. This team is injured and with that just doesn’t have the talent right now to move themselves into the playoffs. The best part about football is you have to indeed play the game and the saying “On any given Sunday” is so true, but you have to go with facts and logic in the NFL over your heart. Dallas is better at just about every position today. Take the Cowboys.

Rotation #477-478
Cardinals/Seahawks Over 51.5
Seattle might be looking ahead to their huge game against San Francisco next week, but they want to keep winning. We will see two excellent QB’s playing against each other that you would never believe were QB’s if you saw them on the street. Both QB’s are almost spitting images of each other and the game would not be the same without them. Kyler Murray has a long way to go to be in Russell Wilson talk, but both are electric and hard to stop. Both defenses have a lot of injuries today and the offenses should have a field day. Clowney being out for Seattle hurts them in the pass rush department so look for Murray to have time to hit his targets. Wilson should dice up this weak Arizona Secondary. Look for a ton of fireworks today. Take the Over.
