I'm leading my group on ESPN's Pigskin Pick'em by 3 games, but
I'm having a hell of a time figuring out Week 17.

Should I just pick all favorites? all home teams?
I can't get a grip on what teams will even show up to play.
These are the teams I know will be playing hard:
Buffalo
Denver
NY Jets
STL Rams
Carolina/New Orleans
Baltimore
Minnesota
Seattle
Jacksonville

Will any of these teams play their starters:
Philly
Pittsburgh
Indy
N.E.
Green Bay
Atlanta
San Diego

Any thoughts?

Indy, Pitt and maybe Green Bay should see their starters play a good deal. The rest I doubt it would be more than a quarter.

Just a sneaking feeling that those teams will play hard. All the lines tell you is the betting public believes otherwise.

I really could see all three road teams winning in spite of motivations.

Why would Indi or Pitt play their starters.. they have the seed already in place where they'll be at in the playoffs...

If this helps:
1:00 pm
447 Green Bay Packers
448 Chicago Bears -3

4:15 pm
461 Indianapolis Colts
462 Denver Broncos -9

1:00 pm
439 Pittsburgh Steelers
440 Buffalo Bills -8½

What to these lines tell you????

Wow, those are some rough lines. I might take the points in all 3 situations. I bet you win 2 out of 3.

I think they are a little pricey. Being married and just buying a house, I don't get out as much as I did a few years ago, but it seems to me that everything around here is going through the roof in terms of price.
