The Chicago Bears are getting no respect when they host their black and blue rival the Green Bay Packers in tonight’s NFC Wild Card game. The Bears are currently a 2-point home dog which will give them even more incentive to put the screws to their archrival. Chicago finished 11-6 on the season with Green Bay at 9-7-1. The Bears are catching a Packers team that has lost their last 4 and the absence of Micah Parsons on the defensive side obviously hurts. Caleb Williams has proven why the Bears made the right move when they picked him #1 overall in 2024. He has thrown for 3,942 yards with 27 TDs and only 7 INTs. Green Bay’s Jordan Love, who has thrown for 3,381 yards with 23 TDs and only 6 picks, will make it interesting but that won’t be enough. Chicago was 6-2 at Soldier Field this season and an impressive 10-6-1 ATS overall.
TONIGHT’S PICK: CHICAGO BEARS +2

The NFC South will be on the line today when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers host the Carolina Panthers. The Bucs will be extra-motivated to take down their rival after falling to them 23-20 back on December 21st. Tampa has lost 4 straight and will not make it 5. Baker Mayfield is the most underrated QB in the NFL and will get the job done today.
TODAY’S PICK: TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS M/L

The 10-4-0 Los Angeles Chargers are on a roll, winning 3 straight and 6 of their last 7. Today they will head to AT&T Stadium to face Dak Prescott and the 6-7-1 Dallas Cowboys. The Bolts’ Justin Hebert should have a big day today against a Cowboys defense that is ranked 32nd in the league against the pass. With a win today, and a loss by the Indianapolis Colts or Houston Texans, the Chargers clinch a playoff spot so they will be extra motivated to put the screws to the Boys who are eliminated from playoff contention.
TODAY’S PICK: LOS ANGELES CHARGERS +1½

The New England Patriots will seek their 11th straight win and the AFC East crown when they host the Buffalo Bills today in Foxboro, but it will be a challenge. The Patriots have won 10 straight but their schedule has been relatively easy with the exception of the Bills who were out of sync when they fell 23-20 to New England back on October 5th. The Bills’ Josh Allen is going to be a factor both running and passing, that is a given, and running back James Cook has been off the charts, rushing for 1,308 yards. Buffalo is healthy and has won the AFC East title the last 5 years. It’s their crown and they will not relinquish it without a fight.
TODAY’S PICK: BUFFALO BILLS M/L

The Buffalo Bills are due for a big win when they take on the Cincinnati Bengals today in Orchard Park. The reigning MVP Josh Allen and James Cook should have a big day against a really bad Cincinnati defense. The Bengals are 32nd against the pass and 31st against the rush. Lay the 6 and take the Bills.
TODAY’S PICK: BUFFALO BILLS -6

The Dallas Cowboys have the best offense in the NFL and they are hot, winners of their last 3. Tonight they will travel to Detroit to face the Lions. Dallas will have Dak Prescott under center. He has thrown for 25 touchdowns with only 5 interceptions. Take the 3 and the Boys.
TONIGHT’S PICK: DALLAS COWBOYS +3

The New York Giants are a road dog tonight when they visit the New England Patriots, and so they should be. The Patriots are 10-2 but they have had an easy schedule and they will come back down-to-Earth tonight. The Giants are still winless on the road, at 0-6, but that is going to change.  
TONIGHT’S PICK: NEW YORK GIANTS M/L
