A 4-2 showing last week for Ernesto the Prediction Iguana puts our season totals at a reasonable 46-18-2. The teaser stats on the exact matchups we posted aren’t quite as good – a paltry 15-16-2, but December is when Ernesto shines brightest. Let’s hope that trend holds true to form this year as well.
Man, what an egg the Pats laid against the Eagles! They weren’t quite as dreadful as the Colts, but it was still an acid-reflux moment for Belichick and Cheatriot fans.
Anyway, here’s all you need to CRUSH YOUR MAN this week. And when you pick up your winnings, tell ’em Ernesto sent ya…
GREEN LIGHT!
PACKERS (+1) vs. Cowboys
What a mess the NFC Least is this year. Aaron Rodgers will roll up 350 yards passing even without Jordy Nelson.
JETS (EVEN) vs Titans
Jets fans are rightfully optimistic this season but only because of the mediocrity sweeping the league this year. Next year, you watch, 10-6 may miss the playoffs.
AMBER ALERT!
CARDINALS-Vikings OVER 39
We missed last week with a Vikings over call when Seattle throttled the run, and Teddy Bridgewater turned out not to be the second coming of Daryl Lamonica after all. Still, they should do better than three points this week, no matter how much the Cards may paste them on Thursday night.
Giants (+6) at DOLPHINS
Gut check time, G-men. Are you going to learn how to close or not? Don’t blink. This is a weak Dolphins team sputtering its way into an early draft position.
RED ROVER!
BRONCOS (EVEN) vs. Raiders
One of these games, the carriage has to turn into a pumpkin for Brock Osweiler…just as long as no one tries to make pumpkin beer or pumpkin lattes or pumpkin flavored-Pringles afterwards…
CARDINALS (-1) vs. Vikings
