Happy Holidays to you and yours and thank you for tuning in to my picks all season long. We have been doing well recently, and went 4-1 last week. I took a flier on the to cover against the , and it didn't come to fruition, but I did call the beating the , the "upsetting" the and the beating the .This week is one of the hardest of the year when it comes to placing bets, since we don't always know if playoff teams are Zack Smith Women Jersey going to play their starters or for how long. I have a good feeling about some of these matchups, however, and I'm ready to put some money down.We have a couple of win-and-you're-in situations this week as well, so it should be another entertaining week in the NFL. Let's jump on in to the picks. at Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (CBS)Point spread: Chiefs -9The Chargers have lost their last two games and it's been painful to watch. On the other side, the Chiefs are trending in the right direction, and are fresh off of a dominant 26-3 road victory over the . Kansas City has won five straight games, and the Chiefs need this win to officially clinch the No. 3 seed in the AFC. They also can take the No. 2 spot if they win and the lose. is playing well, had 92 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown last week and and have both looked incredible. Nine points seems like somewhat of a big spread, but I'm laying it.The pick:Chiefs 35-20 over ChargersThe final week of the regular season is here, so which teams will cover the spread? Pete Prisco and R.J. White join Will Brinson on the Pick Six Podcast to make picks for every game. Listen below andfor daily NFL goodne s. at Detroit LionsSunday, 1 p.m. ET (Fox)Point spread: Packers -12.5The were actually favorites last Monday night when they hosted the Packers, but and Co. utilized a huge second half to register a 23-10 victory. That win secured Green Bay the NFC North and proved to everyone that the Packers are a legitimate contender. had 160 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns, had 13 receptions for 116 yards and had 3.5 Patrick Sharp Women Jersey sacks and 5.5 tackles for lo s. Despite having a first-year head coach, this team is for real, and it has a chance to lock in a first-round bye by defeating and the Lions this Sunday. Detroit has lost its last three games by double digits and it will happen again on Sunday.The pick:Packers 28-14Tenne see Titans at Houston TexansSunday, 4:25 p.m. ET (CBS)Point spread: Titans -3.5Earlier this week, Texans head coach Bill O'Brien said that , even though the game might not matter for playoff seeding Denis Savard Jersey . The Chiefs currently own the No. 3 seed in the AFC, and will clinch that spot with a win against the Chargers. The Chiefs can also take the No. 2 spot and a first-round bye if they win and the Patriots lose, which would mean New England would slide down to the No. 3 seed. Both the Chiefs and Patriots play at 1 p.m. ET, so the Texans will know if their game against the Titans will mean anything or not. No matter what O'Brien says, if both the Chiefs and Patriots win -- which seems likely -- I don't believe the Texans' starters are going to play the full game. This means that the Titans should win this matchup. Even if Houston has a chance to better their seeding, Tenne see is playing for much more. The Titans have to win this game in order to get into the playoffs, and they are motivated to avenge the 24-21 lo s they suffered to the Texans just a couple of weeks ago.The pick:Titans 27-21 over Texans at New York GiantsSunday, 4:25 p.m. ET (Fox)Point spread: Eagles -4.5The main storyline from the Eagles' 17-9 win over the last Sunday has centered around how disappointing Dallas was, but how about ? He completed 31 Gustav Forsling Women Jersey of 40 pa ses for 319 yards and a touchdown while playing without his top wide receivers and for much of the game. People in Philly have a lot of questions when it comes to Wentz, but he stepped up big time last Sunday and the Eagles control their own destiny. All they have to do is beat the Giants on Sunday and they will officially be NFC East champions. The Giants won't be a pushover, however, as New York gutted out a 41-35 victory over Washington last week. threw for 352 yards and five touchdowns while had a career-high 279 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns.The Eagles needed overtime to beat and the Giants earlier this month, but if last week proved anything, Wentz and Co. get up for big games -- and this is a huge game. I expect rookie running back to play a big role on Sunday, and he will be looking for his third game in a row with more than 150 yards from scrimmage. He has 395 yards from scrimmage and four touchdowns in his past three on the road and is one of just four NFC running backs with over 500 rushing yards and over 500 receiving yards this season. I think this matchup is going to be a close one, but I'll take the Eagles to cover the 4.5 points.The pick:Eagles 31- Olli Maatta Women Jersey 24 over Giants at Sunday, 4:25 p.m. ET (CBS)Point spread: Steelers -2The Steelers need help to make the playoffs. In addition to beating the Ravens on Sunday, they need the Texans to beat the Titans. The Ravens have already announced that stars like and will not play this week, and I'm sure that most of their starters will not play. Still, I'm going to take and the backups to beat the Steelers. Pittsburgh knew it needed to beat the lowly last week, and still couldn't do it. was benched for , who . The Steelers are going to have to score much more than 10 points to beat the Ravens, and I think that they will fall flat again on Sunday.The pick:Ravens 26-21 over SteelersOther Week 17 picks 21-20 over Vikings 25-23 over Bears 31-28 over BuccaneersSaints 38-21 over 20-17 over JetsPatriots 30-21 over 27-20 over Cowboys 24-17 over Redskins 28-27 over 28-22 over Broncos 31-24 over
