#playoffs , #wildcard Making #NFL picks against the spread can be so frustrating at times. Just when you think you have a grasp on it, reality sets back in for most of us. We aren't nearly as good as we think we are – as I found out last week. After going 4-1 with my best bets in the wild-card round of the playoffs, I puffed out my chest a bit last week. This isn't so hard, I said. Then a truck smacked me in the face – one with the word "looooser" on the side panel. I went 1-4 with my best bets last week, with the  Eagles  the only winner, and that was in danger late until the  Saints  missed a field goal. Gross. But I feel good about the two championship games this week, which means it's time to get back on track. Here's a hint: Dogs will be barking. Stream the NFC Championship game on  fuboTV , try it for free, and stream the AFC Championship game  on CBS All Access .    Rams  +3.5 at Saints I think the Rams showed something last week in

#nfl #afc-#nfc #playoff #superbowl An eventful Saturday left the NFL playoff picture essentially unchanged from when the day began.

Note: X denotes a team that has clinched a playoff berth, while Z shows a team that has clinched its division. AFC 1. Kansas City Chiefs (11-3) -- X FPI playoff chances:  100 percent A victory Sunday over the Seattle Seahawks would clinch the AFC West, along with a first-round bye. The Chiefs can clinch home-field advantage with a win and a Houston Texans loss. Those are the big consequences of the Los Angeles Chargers&#
