The Las Vegas Raiders are off to a 2-0 start and will be at home today to face the 1-1 Miami Dolphins. The Raiders quarterback, David Carr, has been lighting it up. He has thrown for 817 yards in the first two games with 4 TDs and just 1 interception. The Dolphins, who were embarrassed at home last week by the Buffalo Bills (35-0), will have Jacoby Brissett at the helm. Brissett is replacing Tua Tagovailoa, who was injured last week at Buffalo. Brissett is 12-20 in 32 career starts and was not impressive last week, going 24-40 with 169 yds, no TDs and 1 pick. Las Vegas is expected tp be without running back Josh Jacobs once again but the way Carr in throwing the ball, it shouldn’t matter. The line is currently -3.5 Las Vegas which seems a little fishy; it should be higher. Consider the money line and the Raiders.

Sunday NFL Pick
The Buffalo Bills blew a 10 point lead at home to the Pittsburgh Steelers last week, resulting in a sloppy played 23-16 loss. Josh Allen was out of sync, as were the Bills as a whole, but chalk that up to rust. Sean McDermott will have the defending AFC East Champions ready when they visit their hated rival, the Miami Dolphins. Buffalo has won 5 straight against the Dolphins, including a 56-26 thrashing in their last meeting. Miami is 1-0 but they were lucky to get the win last week against a mediocre at best New England Patriot team. Buffalo is currently laying 3.5 with a money line of -180; don’t sweat the points.

Sunday NFL Pick
Tampa Bay is the side to consider tonight in the 55th showing of the Super Bowl. The Bucs are currently getting 3 points and have the best ever, Tom Brady, at the helm. Enough said.
TONIGHT’S PICK: TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS +3
Sunday NFL Pick
The Kansas City Chiefs are currently laying 3 points tonight against the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship game. The Chiefs finished with the best record in football but were a disaster for bettors, going 1-8 ATS in their last 9 games. The Chiefs have had some key players banged up, including Patrick Mahomes who has been cleared to play, but after last week’s blow to the head and his nagging toe issue will he be 100%? Buffalo fell to KC back on October 19th but then won 11 of their last 12 games and were 9-1 ATS in their last 10. The Bills’ Josh Allen was nothing but spectacular this year, throwing for 300+ yards 8 times, and has the best receiver in the business, Stefon Diggs, who had 127 catches for 1,535 yards. This tandem could pose a problem for the Chiefs who were 14th against the pass and, believe it or not, dead last in the league in red zone defense.
TONIGHT’S PICK: BUFFALO BILLS +3

Who is going to slow down Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills? No one . Weather conditions today in the Queen City are perfect for Buffalo football: snow predicted.

Big Ben will be well rested when the Pittsburgh Steelers host the upstart Cleveland Browns tonight at Heinz Field. This is not the Steelers first rodeo and they will have payback on their minds after falling to the Browns back on January 3rd, 24-22.
