The 2013 NFL playoffs schedule is back, and here at Cappers Info, we’ll be looking at some of the best games on the docket each and every week, as we try to make the most money possible off of the Wild Card odds for the NFL. Join us on Saturday, as we make our Minnesota Vikings @ Green Bay Packers free picks and predictions for what should be a great clash on the gridiron.

Wild Card NFL Picks: Minnesota Vikings @ Green Bay Packers
Date: Saturday, January 5th, 8:00 ET
Location: Lambeau Field, Green Bay, WI
Vikings @ Packers Odds: Green Bay -8
Vikings @ Packers On TV: NBC

This is the third time that the Packers and the Vikings are going to be playing against each other over the course of the last six weeks, and it is going to be a heck of a battle in the first round of the playoffs. RB Adrian Peterson and QB Aaron Rodgers are really the two stars of the show, and both of these men put up some tremendous performances just last week. Rodgers threw for over 360 yards, while Peterson came up nine yards short of the all-time single season rushing record. That being said, he still had 199 yards and ultimately single-handedly won the game for his team.

That being said, both of these teams have a glaring weakness offensively. The Packers have no rushing game whatsoever. RB Alex Green is hurting, and if he is ultimately out of the lineup, Rodgers is going to be the leading rusher for the team that takes the field on Saturday. That wouldn’t be so bad if he had the legs of QB Robert Griffin III or QB Cam Newton, but this is a man that doesn’t even have 300 rushing yards. Minnesota can’t throw the ball, though. QB Christian Ponder only threw 18 TDs on the year, though three of those scores came last week at the Metrodome.

In the end, this is going to be a tight game. There are just too many problems that the Packers have in this one to cover such a big number. Their kicking game isn’t very good, they can’t run the football when the game is on the line, and they don’t have a defense that has proven to be able to stop the run. That being said, with all of the chips in the center of the table, Rodgers knows how to get the job done. We’ve never seen Ponder in a situation like this one, and we just don’t think that he has the goods to win this game outright. We’re still taking the points though, knowing that both of these meetings this year have been awfully close.

Minnesota at Green Bay Pick: Minnesota Vikings +8
Vikings @ Packers Score Prediction: Green Bay 24 – Minnesota 20

The Cincinnati Bengals and the Houston Texans are going to square off on the NFL Playoffs odds and betting lines. Join us here at Cappers Info, as we make our Bengals @ Texans picks & predictions for football for what should be a great game on Saturday.

NFL Playoffs Picks: Cincinnati Bengals at Houston Texans
Date: Saturday, January 5th, 4:30 ET
Location: Reliant Stadium, Houston, TX
NFL Playoffs Betting Odds: Houston -5
Cincinnati vs. Houston Live TV: NBC

The NFL playoffs schedule kicks off on Saturday the exact same way that it did last year with the Texans taking on the Bengals. This year though, the story is significantly different for both of these teams. Houston is coming into the playoffs limping after losing three out of four games to end the season. The team lost the No. 1 seed in the AFC on the final day of the season and was forced into this game, and one can’t help but wonder whether this team ultimately has a chance of going on the road and beating teams like the New England Patriots and Denver Broncos, or what the mindset is going to be for the club coming back home. The Bengals are a year older and a year wiser, and they have last year’s loss to the Texans by three touchdowns here at this venue in this very same fixture.

5Dimes

The problem that the Bengals have in this one though, is that they probably still have all of the same problems that they did last year, too. RB Arian Foster and WR Andre Johnson both had big time games in the first round of the playoffs last year, and both had great seasons. We think that Houston is going to get back to the ground game and get Foster running again after failing to get to 100+ yards in four of his last five outings. This year too, it isn’t then-third string rookie QB TJ Yates calling the shots, as QB Matt Schaub is going to be in the saddle for his first career postseason start. Defensively, DE JJ Watt was a monster in that playoff game, including picking off a pass and returning it for a touchdown that gave the Texans a lead that they would never relent. Watt had one of the best years that a defensive lineman has ever had, and he is still going to be a force in this one.

Granted, we do know that Cincinnati has done a lot this year to improve itself. QB Andy Dalton had nearly 3,700 passing yards this year, and he has another year under his belt with WR AJ Green, one of the best receivers in the game, too. That being said, when you really look at the whole grand scheme of things, the Bengals just don’t have the better of the two teams. Yes, they won six road games this year, but most of those wins away from Paul Brown Stadium came against lousy teams. We’re afraid of the potential that this could be a game that comes down to the wire, but in the end, we do think that Houston gets back in the saddle and picks up the second postseason win in franchise history.

Cincinnati vs. Houston Pick: Houston Texans -5
Bengals @ Texans Score Prediction: Houston 27 – Cincinnati 21

NFL betting fans are running to their online sportsbooks to place their Oakland Raiders vs. San Diego Chargers bets and predictions, and here at Cappers Info, we are making our Sunday football picks for this encounter.

Week 17 Football Picks: Oakland Raiders @ San Diego Chargers
Date: Sunday, December 30th, 4:25 ET
Location: Qualcomm Stadium, San Diego, CA
NFL Betting Lines: San Diego -10
Raiders vs. Chargers On TV: CBS

QB Terrelle Pryor is going to be getting his first career start in this one, and we’re going to take the words of Head Coach Dennis Allen to tell us how we’re going to be playing this one. “We don’t feel like [Pryor] is ready to be the backup quarterback.” Ok, coach, explain this one to us, then. If Pryor isn’t ready to be the backup, what makes you think that he is ready to be the starter? The Raiders have packed it in and did so a long time ago, while the Bolts have played well down the stretch of the season for the sixth straight year for the outgoing Head Coach Norv Turner. The Chargers are actually 20-3 in their 23 games played thus far in the last quarter of the season under Turner’s direction, and in spite of the fact that the road team has won and covered four straight in this series, there is no reason to think that this game is going to be even remotely close. Look for another San Diego blowout with another big time defensive performance.

Raiders @ Chargers Pick: San Diego Chargers -10
Oakland @ San Diego Score Prediction: San Diego 30 – Oakland 10

The Arizona Cardinals and the San Francisco 49ers are going to square off in Week 17 of the NFL betting campaign. Join us here at Cappers Info, as we make our predictions for football for what should be a great game on Sunday.

Week 17 NFL Picks: Arizona Cardinals @ San Francisco 49ers
Date: Sunday, December 30th, 4:25 ET
Location: Candlestick Park, San Francisco, CA
Week 17 Betting Odds: San Francisco -16.5
Cardinals vs. 49ers Live TV: FOX

Dare we lay 16.5 with the 49ers in this game? Of course we will! When these two teams met in the desert in October when QB John Skelton calling the shots, the 49ers won 24-3. Now, we have seen Arizona go through both Skelton and QB Ryan Lindley, and the tide turns over to QB Brian Hoyer for his first career start. Arizona’s offense just hasn’t been able to get out of its own way for the most part, and there is no reason to think that Hoyer is going to be able to do any better on the road in a game that means oh so much to the 49ers. San Francisco has to have this game if it wants to have a chance at the No. 2 seed in the NFC, and more importantly if it wants to win the NFC West and avoid having to go on the road in the first round of the playoffs. The defense allowed 76 points over the course of the last two games, and that just isn’t going to continue when push comes to shove. Go with the 49ers and lay the points for sure in a game that should never be close.

Cardinals @ 49ers Pick: San Francisco 49ers -16.5
Cardinals @ 49ers Score Prediction: San Francisco 24 – Arizona 3

NFL betting fans are running to their online sportsbooks to place their Baltimore Ravens vs. Cincinnati Bengals bets and predictions, and here at Cappers Info, we are making our Sunday football picks for this encounter.

Week 17 Football Picks: Baltimore Ravens @ Cincinnati Bengals
Date: Sunday, December 30th, 1:00 ET
Location: Paul Brown Stadium, Cincinnati, OH
NFL Betting Lines: Cincinnati -2.5
Ravens vs. Bengals On TV: CBS

The Ravens are the only team with anything to play for in this game, knowing that they can get up to the No. 3 seed if they win and the Patriots ultimately lose. However, we really don’t think that Head Coach John Harbaugh really cares too much about all of this, and he just wants to get through this game healthy. If the Ravens and the Bengals both essentially make this a preseason game, we want the points on our side. We trust QB Tyrod Taylor to be able to get the ball moving up the field, and as he proved last week, RB Bernard Pierce does have the ability to run the rock with authority behind a great (and deep) offensive line. This really does feel like it is nothing more than a crapshoot of a game, and though the Bengals might be interested in keeping some momentum going in this one, we have historically seen that when it doesn’t mean anything to Head Coach Marvin Lewis, he tends to just call off the dogs, and a terrible game is the end result. We like the ‘under’. We love the Ravens even more.

Ravens @ Bengals Pick: Baltimore Ravens +2.5
Baltimore @ Cincinnati Score Prediction: Baltimore 20 – Cincinnati 13

The Chicago Bears and the Detroit Lions are going to square off in Week 17 of the NFL betting campaign. Join us here at Cappers Info, as we make our predictions for football for what should be a great game on Sunday.

Week 17 NFL Picks: Chicago Bears @ Detroit Lions
Date: Sunday, December 30th, 1:00 ET
Location: Ford Field, Detroit, MI
Week 17 Betting Odds: Chicago -3
Bears vs. Lions Live TV: FOX

This is a weird game for sure, as the public is all over the place. The Bears are getting 65% of the betting action on their side, but if you listen to the talking heads all over the country, this is a game that the Lions seem destined to win, just because the Bears can’t win the big time game. Alas, the history in this series is insanely in favor of the Monsters of the Midway for a reason. Chicago is clearly and definitively the better of these two teams. All of this talk about all of the milestones in Detroit is great, but Head Coach Lovie Smith and the gang really could care less if WR Calvin Johnson goes off for another 200+ yard game and if QB Matthew Stafford gets to 5,000 passing yards for the year or not. It’s all about the ‘W’ in the 1:00 hour, and it’s all about rooting for the Packers (as much as that must hurt Bears fans to say) in the 4:00 hour. Detroit has lost seven games in a row for a reason, and it is 1-6 ATS in those games for a reason as well. Tis the season to fade the Lions.

Bears @ Lions Pick: Chicago Bears -3
Bears @ Lions Score Prediction: Chicago 27 – Detroit 17

The 2012 NFL season is back, and here at Cappers Info, we’ll be looking at some of the best games on the docket each and every week, as we try to make the most money possible off of the NFL odds for the week. Join us on Sunday, as we make our Kansas City Chiefs @ Denver Broncos free picks and predictions for what should be a great clash on the gridiron.

Week 17 NFL Picks: Kansas City Chiefs @ Denver Broncos
Date: Sunday, December 30th, 4:25 ET
Location: Sports Authority Field at Mile High
NFL Betting Odds: Denver -16
Chiefs vs. Broncos On TV: CBS

We absolutely hate laying this many points in the NFL, especially in a rivalry game that also happens to have so much on the line for one team. The Chiefs are just going to try to play the role of the spoiler in this one, as the Broncos are going for a first round bye and potentially the No. 1 seed in the AFC. For as bad as KC has been all year long, it does only have six losses this year by more than 16 points. On this long 10-game winning streak though, QB Peyton Manning and the gang have four victories of more than 16 points. The Broncos did only beat the Chiefs by eight at Arrowhead Stadium in an ugly game, but this time around, Manning should have no problems throwing for a few TDs against a hapless team. Getting to 30 is the key in this one, and with at least 31 points scored in three out of four games, there is no reason to think that the Chiefs are going to be able to score enough to keep up with that type of output.

Kansas City Chiefs @ Denver Broncos Pick: Denver Broncos -16
Kansas City Chiefs @ Denver Broncos Score Prediction: Denver 31 – Kansas City 10

NFL betting fans are running to their online sportsbooks to place their New York Jets vs. Buffalo Bills bets and predictions, and here at Cappers Info, we are making our Sunday football picks for this encounter.

Week 17 Football Picks: New York Jets @ Buffalo Bills
Date: Sunday, December 30th, 1:00 ET
Location: Ralph Wilson Stadium, Orchard Park, NY
NFL Betting Lines: Buffalo -3
Jets vs. Bills On TV: CBS

The Bills and the Jets have absolutely squat to play for, but this is the game that the boys from the Big Apple win just for the sake of controversy. QB Mark Sanchez has been put back in the lineup, and we have to remember that way back in Week 1, he destroyed this Buffalo defense to the tune of 266 yards, three TDs, and a total of 48 points scored. QB Ryan Fitzpatrick was picked off three times in that game, and in spite of the fact that RB CJ Spiller had a great game, we just don’t see him accounting for 194 yards of offense once again in this one. If the Jets decide that they want to show up in this game and the offensive line doesn’t get Sanchez killed the same way that it did last week with QB Greg McElroy calling the shots against the San Diego Chargers, there’s no doubt in our minds that the wrong team is favored in this game. Buffalo just isn’t the better of these two teams, even for as bad as New York has been.

Jets @ Bills Pick: New York Jets +3
New York @ Buffalo Score Prediction: New York 19 – Buffalo 16

The 2012 NFL schedule is back, and here at Cappers Info, we’ll be looking at some of the best games on the docket each and every week, as we try to make the most money possible off of the Week 17 odds for the NFL. Join us on Sunday, as we make our St. Louis Rams @ Seattle Seahawks free picks and predictions for what should be a great clash on the gridiron.

Week 17 NFL Picks: St. Louis Rams @ Seattle Seahawks
Date: Sunday, December 30th, 4:25 ET
Location: CenturyLink Field, Seattle, WA
NFL Betting Odds: Seattle -11
Rams @ Seahawks On TV: FOX

The Seahawks are laying a heck of a lot of points in this one, but the time might be here that it truly isn’t justified for that to happen. Head Coach Pete Carroll isn’t going to take his foot off of the gas pedal with as well as his team has been playing of late, but that doesn’t mean that his club should be laying double digits. How quickly we all forget that the Rams have won four out of five and have a tie against the San Francisco 49ers in the mix at the Stick as well! St. Louis went into Tampa Bay last week and won, and this is a more important game for the team. There’s a big difference between going 8-7-1 and 7-8-1 over the course of the year, and this would be an emotional win for a team that is going to try to carry all of the momentum that it can into the offseason and eventually into 2013. Seattle won’t punt this game, but it won’t win it by more than a score either.

Rams @ Seahawks Pick: St. Louis Rams +11
Rams @ Seahawks Score Prediction: Seattle 24 – St. Louis 20

The Cleveland Browns and the Pittsburgh Steelers are going to square off in Week 17 of the NFL betting campaign. Join us here at Cappers Info, as we make our predictions for football for what should be a great game on Sunday.

Week 17 NFL Picks: Cleveland Browns @ Pittsburgh Steelers
Date: Sunday, December 30th, 1:00 ET
Location: Heinz Field, Pittsburgh, PA
Week 17 Betting Odds: Pittsburgh -7
Browns vs. Steelers Live TV: CBS

This is a ludicrous point spread, to say the least. The Steelers are only favored by a touchdown under the premise that they have given up on the season, while the Browns are still fighting their hearts out to impress new ownership for the 2013 campaign. Pittsburgh though, has a massive score to settle, and QB Ben Roethlisberger is going to want to go out this year with a bang, not a dud. Big Ben threw the game-clinching picks both in Week 15 and in Week 16, and those two losses proved to be the team’s undoing for the playoffs. It’s not so much that the Steelers have the desire to finish at .500 that makes us think that this game is going to be a blowout. It’s that they turned the ball over eight times against the Browns in a 20-14 loss at the Dawg Pound. If Cleveland can only win by six points in a game in which it was at home against a third string quarterback in QB Charlie Batch, is there any way that it is going to be able to come on the road with a third string quarterback of its own in QB Thaddeus Lewis and get the job done in the Steel City against a ticked off Pittsburgh outfit? We think not!

Browns @ Steelers Pick: Pittsburgh Steelers -7
Browns @ Steelers Score Prediction: Pittsburgh 34 – Cleveland 6

Week 17 pointspreads are out, and here at Cappers Info, we are set to analyze the NFL odds for one of the top games on the slate. The Green Bay Packers vs. Minnesota Vikings odds are posted, and we are set to make our NFL picks for another great game.

Week 17 NFL Picks: Green Bay Packers @ Minnesota Vikings
Date: Sunday, December 30th, 4:25 ET
Location: Mall of America Field at the HHH Metrodome, Minneapolis, MN
Week 17 Betting Odds: Green Bay -3
Green Bay vs. Minnesota Live TV: FOX

As we see it, the Vikings are already going to know that they have to win this game to get into the playoffs, as we think that the Bears are going to beat the Lions in the 1:00 ET hour. Green Bay already basically knows that it has to have this game to lock up a first round bye in the playoffs, something that is incredibly coveted for all of the teams involved in this chase in both conferences. The Vikes came up with the game of their lives last week in Houston, but this is going to be a significantly tougher game. The Packers won 23-14 when these two teams met the first time around at Lambeau Field, and that was in spite of the fact that K Mason Crosby missed a field goal and that RB Adrian Peterson had 210 yards on the ground, 82 of which came on one carry. It just isn’t going to be the prettiest game in the world for Minnesota, and in the end, we think that Green Bay, which is quietly 9-1 in its last 10 games, will take this one and get next week off.

Packers @ Vikings Pick: Green Bay Packers -3
Packers @ Vikings Score Prediction: Green Bay 27 – Minnesota 16

The 2012 NFL schedule is back, and here at Cappers Info, we’ll be looking at some of the best games on the docket each and every week, as we try to make the most money possible off of the Week 17 odds for the NFL. Join us on Sunday, as we make our Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Atlanta Falcons free picks and predictions for what should be a great clash on the gridiron.

Week 17 NFL Picks: Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Atlanta Falcons
Date: Sunday, December 30th, 1:00 ET
Location: Georgia Dome, Atlanta, GA
NFL Betting Odds: Atlanta -5
Buccaneers @ Falcons On TV: FOX

The Falcons have absolutely nothing to play for in the regular season finale, just like they did last year when they jumped out to a 42-0 lead and coasted to a 45-24 romp on the final day of the season against these same Bucs in this same venue. It is anyone’s guess how hard Atlanta is going to play in this one, but if we even get a half out of QB Matt Ryan and the gang, we have to think that that is going to be enough to win this game. The Bucs really don’t feel like they have “it” right now since losing to the Falcons back on November 25th. They have since gone 0-5 SU and 1-3-1 ATS, and that just doesn’t cut it at this level. It’s not quite the same epic fall that Tampa Bay had at the end of last season, but it is the same trend for sure. Perhaps this one won’t quite be so bad, but a win by a touchdown is every bit as good as a win by three scores or more.

Buccaneers @ Falcons Pick: Atlanta Falcons -5
Buccaneers @ Falcons Score Prediction: Atlanta 27 – Tampa Bay 21
