Skip Bayless (4:00) likes the Jets and prefers Sanchez to Manning.

Denver will cover 3 points easily. I need to jump all over that soon.

They must call you the 1200 dollar guy.

But that was a good bet IMO.

Yeah that's just bizarre even if they consider the Jets better

I don't know what's crazier, Carolina being a 9 pt favorite against someone or the fact that I'd probably take that -9 if I had to choose

Are you serious? Your betting against Killa Cam? For Blaine Gabbert? Come on!

No way I'd bet for the Jags, their offense is dreadful and Carolina just finished beating up Houston.

Now Denver at Buffalo on the other hand...

Damn, my bad then misread that.

Holy crap, Carolina is gonna destroy Tampa. -9, I'd bet that if it was -12, this Tampa team is pathetic.

Jags at Titans? Yeah I could see that though I still think that the Jags are a pathetically awful team MJD alone may keep the game competitive.

When the schedule was first released, I figured this game at Seattle would be the only NFC West game the Niners would lose. Since then, they've lost at Arizona, so....we'll see. I would still be damn proud of a 12-4 finish, but they need to win out to get that #2 seed.

I actually like the 49ers to beat Seattle. Seahawks are playing well, but that run defense is going to shut down Lynch and Jackson isn't going to win Seattle any games.

That means Seattle needs to force turnovers, and that's something Alex Smith has stayed away from.

The Colts better not win these last 2 games and lose the #1 pick or they are complete hypocrites. They proved 2 years ago that winning isn't as important as improving the team's chances in the future to win a title. That same thought process still applies for these last two games.

Go Texans.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

Arian Foster in fine form already.

Here's why the Texans are still dangerous--they had the worst QB of any AFC playoff team (unless OAK makes it) even when Schaub was healthy. They're played over half the season without their best offensive player and their best defensive player. They got their adversity early and have time to overcome it. Look at Baltimore with Boldin now--he would be very iffy for a Wild Card weekend game and I'm not sure they can beat anyone without him. Houston already knows they can play with anyone despite their losses. Sort of like Green Bay last year, though the Packers had a lot more quantity of injuries. They got them out of the way early enough to learn to compensate.
