Decided to make Monday's games a little more interesting. Took the Panthers to win by 13+

Eagles to win 7-12 

Jacksonville 13+

And a 4 leg multi with eagles, pats, jags and niners to win.

Can't believe the Jags & Panthers are such outsiders, both serious value in the H2H betting

It's nearly always a curious week (week 17) ... the teams in contention that have to win, usually win, and those teams that don't have to win, don't usually win.

Teams that have secured a playoff berth and can't move from that spot often rest their starters and other teams that are completely out of it only have pride & future contracts on the line. 

It's reflected in the betting markets.  The lines & head-to-head odds are a lot different to what we normally see - it's actually a good betting week if you can get your head around what is going on.

It wouldn't surprise to see the Bills,  49ers,  Titans,  Denver & Dallas all win ... all 5 of those teams are favoured to win where as ordinarily they'd nearly all be underdogs.  And every season in week 17 it's a similar story.

It's hard to see any of the Ravens,  Chargers,  Vikes,  Pats,  Steelers,  Seahawks & Saints losing either.

I went Philly for a few reasons, Foles needs more time with their O and they have tge bye and they hate the cowboys so still want to win.

Niners cos they cant lose against what the Rams will field.

Jags should beat titans. Not sure if they are resting players?

Pats should roll the jets and can lose top seed.

Panthers can still get second seed if all goes their way. 13+ is a massive ask but thats why the odds are so good.

Marrone has said Jags starters will be playing until the result is beyond doubt. Whatever that means.

I gather it means that as long as there is a chance to improve their position they will keep their starters on the field. I hope that is after they are 23 points up! ?

Locked in at #3 but can kill off the Titans and not play them again next week.

I'm hoping you win for your sake JV.  You never know,  the team might click into gear if they get into the playoffs.

The Panthers deep-down must know that the Saints & Vikes are not going to slip up and that realisation may be apparent by half time of your game. 

I do like the scheduling though ... the games that matter being played at the same time. 

[Gorgoroth 12,962]

Ergggghhhhhh

Foles benched halway through the second quarter. Looked terrible. 0-0 witg 2 mins to go in the half.

Browns are taking it up to the steelers. 

[Gorgoroth 12,962]

Fuckyoooooooouuuuuuuuu Eagles!!!!

Ficken makes his first FG attempt. That's pretty much the story i care about in the Rams game.

[Clintosaurus 7,849]

Jags have no [censored] idea when playing the Titans.

Yeah they are not playing well at all.

I'm just cheering on the Bills! Hope they make it!

That TD helps. How good was Kyle Williams getting a rushing TD for the Bills?

At least one of us will go through Gorg... I'm not that confident, will be a tough task for us. Hopefully it's on Sunday rather than Monday

Yeah avoiding scores at work is hard.

[Gorgoroth 12,962]

Just imagine being a Ravens fan at the game - gut wrenching. 

Well done to the Bills though ... 17 long seasons without playoffs and they finally make it!
