While the knuckle-draggers decided that Sundays with the wifey was less palatable than suffering through a kneeling or raised fist and have trudged back to the television, Bokolis again backed away from the NFL. I've had shit to do. I'm not going to let having shit to do today fully interfere with my fascination for playoffs. With the stock markets trying to decide whether to correct or go full crash mode, the world could use a positive ROI right about now. Let's see what Bokolis can do.
TEXANS (-1.5) over Colts - Bokolis wrote "Titans" before fixing. Same shit? This is an apt curtain jerker, as these two teams interest me the least. Nonetheless, Bokolis is keen on seeing the Texans make a run this postseason. These are two apparently hot teams. I'm still surprised that three teams from the AFC South managed winning records. They must have butched up on the AFC East.
I suppose Luck is more proven than Watson, and that's where the money is leaning. In trying to make plays, Watson has been sacked a bunch this year. This greatly bothers the pundits, but Bokolis less so. The real issue for the Texans will be stopping Luck from finding Hilton. I still can't figure out how he manages that without much of a running game or other wideouts. It must be that other defenses are too stupid to stop it. I'm going to bank on Luck messing this up at some point.
Seahawks (+2.5) over COWBOYS - The Seahawks will decide if they want to win this game. The Cowboys can only decide how they want to lose it.
RAVENS (-2.5) over Chargers - Everyone remembers the throttling Baltimore put on the Chargers a few weeks back. As much as Bokolis hates to go with the crowd, between that, the early Sunday start and having little faith in Rivers in this spot, just like with the early Saturday game, I can't bring myself to play the QB experience card.
Eagles (+6.5) over BEARS - Even if Bokolis is supposed to believe this Bears unit is semi-legit, I'm going to bank on an attack of pride for Philadelphia and enough self-doubt on the part of the Bears keeping this game hanging in the balance.
