Throwing Darts: Dialing up Le'Veon Bell and friends

Final darts of the season, throwers. Let's try to make them count.


This week's order will be the Colts -7, Panthers +4, Ravens -10, Broncos -14 and Steelers -3.5, using the numbers from Yahoo Pro Football Pickem, as we always do.


I know we're guessing on Colts level of urgency, but I expect them to want to wash out the bad taste from the Dallas blowout. The Titans rarely get in anyone's way.

In the ugly NFC South, I want to take the points whenever possible. Jonathan Stewart's rebirth gives the Panthers a nifty, balanced offense. I trust Carolina's defense more than I do Atlanta's.


I love zig-zagging in a game where both sides are coming off results I want to fade. Meet me in Denver. Sure, Oakland's had some nice second-half wins, but they all came at home and against non-playoff teams (unless KC sneaks in on a miracle). Denver has its own fleas, but it's not the team we saw in Week 16. Broncos need this game and although sometimes that comes with a tax (which I will often fade), minus-14 doesn't feel like one to me.


Expect John Harbaugh to have his team ready after last week's nightmare. The Browns are still cleaning up the cups from the Manziel party. You can't make this line high enough for me.


And you better believe I'm fading Cincinnati after they had an everything-break-right kind of week. A.J. Green isn't right, and the Bengals can't mark all of Pittsburgh's weapons (remember the 235 & 3 Le'Veon Bell threw at them in the first meeting?). I really hope we see a Pittsburgh-Denver match in the second round of the playoffs.


Last Week: 3-2


Season: 39-40-1
