I will bet on Atlanta vs Philadelphia and New England vs Tennessee but the other two may be stay aways from me besides looking at some fun prop bets.


Jacksonville is not good but with that defense if they can make it an ugly grind it out game I would not be shocked if they won.
I would say Pittsburgh is better but with injuries and the Jacksonville defense I don't see them as a lock.
If Pittsburgh goes up by 10 at any point I would say game over since Jacksonville at no point wants Bortles to do anything other than hand off and do check downs. He is a liability at any point to throw one up for grabs.


But they have a stellar defense and enough of a run game to ball control and kick field goals to a victory.


New Orleans vs Minnesota is just a toss up.
Minnesota also has a great defense but New Orleans may have the most complete offense. Brees can go deep a few times at his age but also has a running game and lots of weapons out of the backfield to gain yards and control the ball.
I like their offense.


And Keenum has had a nice year when I looked up his stats but until he proved he wrong he is still Case Keenum. I just don't see a SB QB there until he actually does it.
But with their defense he may not have a lot to do besides not turn the ball over and make a handful of throws.
