Chicago Bears +3 2 stars weather will play a major role in this game. with WINDS gusting from 35-50 mph both teams will be forced to run the ball more. the pats are coming off a short week and a drubbing of their division foe 45-3. the bears defense is giving up only 16 ppg. home dog +3 is the right side here.
Bears/Pats UNDER 37.5 4 stars as mentioned above the WEATHER is a MAJOR factor in this game. recall last year in Orchard Park when the Pats Bills struggled to a 6-3 game in 50 mph winds. This line opened at 41 and has come down to 37.5 which is NOT NEARLY ENOUGH of an adjustment by the bookmakers.
Saints/Rams OVER 47 2 stars saints offense is clicking averaging 30 ppg the past 4 games. Rams are on their third straight road game so the hedgie was tempted to lay the points with the saints but the better play is the OVER
Falcons -7 3 stars Falcons are a well balanced focused team. They are playing for home field advantage throughout the playoffs and will not let down in this spot. The panthers are a banged up team and also lost their starting weakside LB (Jason Williams) this Friday as well.
