Our WILDCARD NFL picks VS the spread

Colin D. | January 4, 2011

The pickathon continues as we head into the playoffs.  Reidy holds a solid 5 game lead.  Producer Aaron X joins us this week.  Here’s how he fellahs see it going down VS the spread.

New Orleans @ Seattle (+10.5)

Could Seattle be the biggest home dog in the history of the NFL playoffs?  They are arguably the worst team ever to qualify and the first to do so with a record of 7-9.  Qwest Field provides the X-factor.  It’s loud.  It’ll probably be raining, too.  Can the World Champs cover the number?

Colin’s pick:  Seattle +10.5, Reidy’s Pick:  N.O.-10.5, AARON X’s pick:  New


Indianapolis VS NY Jets (+2.5)

Peyton Manning’s Colts have not been as impressive as they have been in the past.  They’ve been missing key players on offense and have struggled at times to find tempo.  Still, they have Peyton Manning.  It’s tough to bet against that guy – especially at home.  Vegas must like the Jets here.  They are getting fewer than 3 points on the road.

Colin’s pick: Indy -2.5, Reidy’s pick: NY Jets +2.5, AARON X’s pick: NY Jets+2.5

 

Baltimore @ Kansas City (+3)

The Chiefs did not make a strong case for their chances in the Wildcard round by getting slaughtered at home by the Raiders in week 17.  Still, they are known as a tough beat at Arrowhead Stadium and they are getting points against the Ravens.

Colin’s pick:  K.C. +3, Reidy’s pick:  Baltimore -3, AARON X’s pick:  Baltimore -3

 

Philadelphia VS Green Bay (+2.5)

This is the most intuiging of the Wildcard games.  The Eagles are only a slight home favorite over the Packers who have been hot as of late.  Nobody is sure whether or not Mike Vick will play, although he inststs that he will.

Colin’s pick:  PHI -2.5, Reidy’s pick:  Green Bay +2.5, AARON X’s pick:  PHI -2.5
