Our
football predictions reflect a different approach
to making NFL betting picks. The Elimination System
of Handicapping using Las Vegas NFL odds & point
spreads looks for indications in the NFL
lines as to which teams oddsmakers & insiders
may think will cover the spread. By judging which
way the lines go sometimes gives us a clue into which
way we might go. A handicapper has to weigh all options
and Ciaran is one that does.

Wild Card Weekend
The NFL playoffs
are usually easier to handicap than the regular season
for a simple reason: The better teams are at home.
So the oddsmakers automatically give
the three points for home-field advantage, plus a
few more for being better. That's the case as the
playoffs start this weekend.
The closest line is in Seattle, where
the Seahawks are favored by four over the Rams, even
though St. Louis won both meetings between them in
the NFC West, easily the league's worst division.

St.
Louis (plus 4) at Seattle
The Seahawks' problems this year started in their
fourth game, when they were unbeaten and led the
Rams by 17 points at home with just over 6 minutes
to go. They lost 33-27 in overtime and later fell
23-12 in St. Louis. It shouldn't happen again,
although Seattle is in psychological disarray.
Shaun Alexander "apologized" for complaining
about not getting the ball for the Seahawks' final
touchdown against Atlanta last week and losing
the rushing title by 1 yard to the Jets' Curtis
Martin. But there was an edge to the apology.
Nonetheless, St. Louis was 2-6 on the road this
season, Seattle is more talented anyway and thus
I think.... SEAHAWKS, 35-26

Denver
(plus 10) at Indianapolis
The Broncos made the playoffs by beating the visiting
Colts, who used Jim Sorgi at quarterback. These
are the Colts with Peyton Manning, who beat Denver
41-10 in last season's first round at the RCA
Dome. That caused Mike Shanahan to revamp his
defense, bringing in Champ Bailey and John Lynch
to help the secondary. They have, but they're
not going to shut down Manning, Edgerrin James
and the Marvin Harrison-Reggie Wayne-Brandon Stokley
troika. So I think... COLTS, 31-17

Minnesota
(plus 6) at Green Bay
The Packers won both meetings this season 34-31,
the latest in Minneapolis on Dec. 24. And their
secondary is certainly vulnerable to Daunte Culpepper,
Randy Moss and Nate Burleson, although Moss provoked
some discord by walking off the field with 2 seconds
left in the Vikings' loss in Washington last week.
Nonetheless, the most telling numbers are these:
The Packers won nine of their final 11 games;
the Vikings lost seven of their last 10, the second
straight season they've done that. The Lambeau
magic isn't what it used to be, but I still think...
PACKERS, 34-31

New
York Jets (plus 6) at San Diego
Another rematch: New York won 34-28 in Week 2,
when the Chargers didn't know they were good.
Since then, San Diego has gotten better and the
Jets have gotten worse, in part because Chad Pennington
is playing with a sore rotator cuff, something
his many critics in New York don't seem to have
considered in taking shots at him. Pennington
doesn't have the strongest arm when healthy. Now
he can hardly throw deep at all, allowing defenses
to stack for Curtis Martin. San Diego will do
that and I think you see....
CHARGERS, 24-16
