NFL WILDCARD SUNDAY

 



1pm:  Eags @ Bucs

  Earlier in the season the Bucs played at the Eags as 8 point favorites and won 28-22 but did not cover.  However, The Bucs were in total control of that game up 28-7. Just by the picture here you can notice Brady's Jersey was  white and untouched.  

   Today's game was expecting rain and high winds. NOw as the storm moves through it's mostly just wind.    Brady has plenty of experience in the wind and should have no problems. On the other hand this is Jalen Hurts first playoff game and his ability to control passes in the wind is very questionable.  

      The eagles should be able to move the ball but at the end of the day the Bucs are superior.  The Bucs are banged up with some injuries so the line has dropped from -8.5. to -7 BUT the Eagles have not beaten a winning team all season and are 0-6 vs playoff teams. 


  * also, eagles DE Josh Sweat is a scratch. which is less of a pass rush and benefits Brady

Bucs -7 1 star 

Teaser :  BUCS -1 and OVER 41 2 stars 


430pm  Niners @ Boys

   Cowboys are 13-4 ATS this year but have not beaten a playoff team since week 6 when they beat the Pats in OT.   The 49ers have a lot of momentum and the better coach .  If you wait til kickoff you might be able to get +3.5


49ers +3.5. (-120) 2 stars 


8:15pm Steelers @ Chiefs


The Steelers are lucky to be in the playoffs . These two teams met just a few weeks ago and the Chiefs won 36-10 (without TE Kelce).   The Hedgie can't imagine what would be different this go round.  Double digits is al ot to lay for Big Ben's final game ever.   So the Hedgie prefers a teaser..


TEASER :  BUCS -1 & Chiefs -6.5 1 star
