MIAMI +5.5
With New England already having won their didvision, this game to them is means nothing. The closest you will see Tom Brady or the other New England starters to this game, will be sitting on the bench in front of a warm heater. Surely wouldn't be surprised to see the Dolphins win this game straight up.
Houston pk
If any game could be called the Garbage Bowl, this would be it. Both these teams must think it is Christmas morning again, they both get to play a team that is actually as bad as they are. The only reason for this selection is that Frisco won their last game straight up over St. Louis and the 49'ers haven't won back to back games straight up, in at least their last 30 games. So why should I think it is going to happen today. On the other hand Houston played very tough in their last 2 road games, losing 2 tough decisions against Baltimore and Tennessee and I feel they also have an edge at QB.
St. Louis +12.5 (IF BET)
I call this play an IF BET, because it soley depends on what happens in the earlier day games, whether or not, you should play it. It is very simple, if Carolina and Washington both win in the earlier action, then be sure to bet St Louis. The reason for this would be, that Dallas in that case will be eliminated from the playoffs, which means this team will really be down and i just can't see them winning by this many points, but at the same time, if Carolina wins the early game and it looks like Washington is going to win the early evening game, you have to get your bet in early on this game, because I feel once the oddsmakers know Dallas is eliminated, the spread on this game will drop quickly.
