PLACE YOUR BETS!!! ADF started off Week 15 on fire, only to see the Sunday
afternoon games fail us with blowouts and missed opportunities. Alas, ADF still
resides at the .500 mark with two weeks to play in the regular season, we’ll
definitely take that! ADF was able to stack the bank account with all the
Sunday morning success to keep the money line in the black. Had to offset a few
losses from last week, but nothing we would shed tears about. We look to
dominate this week as divisional games are at the for-front of week 16. Follow
me I will get you there! Let’s make some money. Good Luck! Merry
Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Starting off the slate
of games is the Colts and the Ravens. Baltimore holds their own destiny in the
playoff chase, and if they win out right, they will find themselves playing into
January. The Ravens aren’t a fantastic team as their schedule has been one of
the easiest in the NFL, but they have proven they are a force on defense.
Offensively they make chuck plays to get them over the top, and have found
their run game behind Alex Collins. The Colts season has been over for a while
as they continue to play out the string. There isn’t much to play for as the rumor mill has Head Coach Chuck Pagano on his way out after next week’s
contest. The Colts find ways to compete but they fold like paper as the game
wears on. This is a massive spread for the Ravens to cover; but playing at
home, behind the fantastic running of Alex Collins, and superb defensive play against
a weak opponent, I’ll bite! BAL

With the Green Bay
loss and Falcons victory last week, it sent the Packers packing for the season.
With the loss and nothing left to play for, Green Bay sent Rodgers back to IR
to rest up for the 2018 season. The dynamics of this game has definitely
changed as the Packers will be extremely shorthanded as Devonte Adams will not
suit up for this one as well. The Vikings travel to Lambo field as they remain in
must win situations to keep home field advantage alive. Minnesota has done
almost everything correct this season amidst the many injuries they have
endured. The defense has taken shape and solidified themselves as one of the
top units in the NFL. Offensively, Case Keenum has done everything he’s been
asked to do with supreme efficiency. This one shouldn’t be must of a contest as
the Vikings will roll in and roll out with another W. MIN covers the spread @ -9 MIN 16 GB 0 (W)

Massive spreads continue
to be the trend as we see the first game on tap for Christmas Eve. The Panthers
have looked dominate as they continue their quest for the NFC South crown. The
schedule makers have gifted Cam and company with a very winnable contest at
home for week 16. Newton has been impressive during the last 4 weeks as he
looks to have taken on more of a leadership role. However, Cam does this often
when the team is winning and looks to be the ultimate team player. A loss or
close contest should bring Newton back down to his immature ways, taking away
what they are doing right. The Bucs season has been a wrap for quite some time
but still had some fight in them last week against the Falcons. No one wants to
fall in the gutter and die a slow death, so I expect the Bucs to try and keep
it close early on. The Panthers will be far too much for Tampa to handle on the
road. Yet another massive spread covered. CAR

The Browns continue their
winless season as they travel to Chicago to face the Bears. The script over the
past month for the Bears has been – play great, play terrible, play great, play
terrible, we could see this again. Playing at home should give the Bears more motivation
to go along with not being the squad that drops a game to a winless team. ADF
is supportive of what Trubisky has been doing as his progression has moved in
the right direction. Alas, he still requires experience and tutelage to take
his game to the next level. Most impressively, Trubisky is going through his
progressions in the pocket searching for his 4th and 5th
reads at times, very rare for a rookie quarterback. The Browns have tried many
things to get this team going and have failed miserably. The lone bright spot
for the Browns has been the play of the defense that begins very strong then
gets worn down as they receive no assistance from their offense. Playing in
Soldier Field the Bears should win this one, but the score will be tighter then
the spread suggests, very possible the Browns get their first win. CHI doesn’t cover the spread @ -6.5 CLE 3 CHI 20 (L)

The Lions make their
way to Cincinnati to face off in an important contest that could seal the fate
of the club. The Lions playoff hopes are still very much alive and will need to
be on their A-game otherwise they could drop a very winnable contest. The
Detroit offense is led by Matthew Stafford and will die at the hands of
Stafford. The Lions possess no run game which amounts to all the pressure
square on the quarterback’s shoulders. Defensively Darius Slay has been a
revelation and should be able to lock down AJ Green keeping the NFL’s worst
offense in check. Not much left to evaluate for the Bengals as they are in
offseason mode as Head Coach Marvin Lewis will be dismissed at the conclusion
of the season. Nothing left to play for in Cincy. DET covers the spread @ -5 DET 17 CIN 26 (L)

The Kansas City Chiefs
have again seemingly found their stride and have recaptured the lead in the AFC
West. Going back to a formula that worked well at the beginning of the season -
running the ball effectively with rookie star Kareem Hunt. Andy Reid should be applauded
for giving up the play calling duties and focusing on correcting the defensive tribulations,
which has looked better of late. The Dolphins are traveling to Arrowhead in
December which is never a good thing for a team from South Florida. The Fins
are coming off a divisional loss to the Bills that ended their playoff aspirations
and ADF really questions the motivation Jay Cutler will have. The Chiefs will
pound the Fins with the run game and should close them out with defensive play.
This will be a cake walk in KC.

To the elation of
Bills fans, they have important games in December. Coach McDermott preached the
win now and build for the future mentality, which has come to pass in 2017. The
Bills walk into Gillette Stadium with everything to play for as their playoff
lives hang in the balance. Tyrod Taylor looked very good last week behind a
fantastic game plan and great support from LeSean McCoy. The Bills will have to
be perfect on Sunday as any mistakes will definitely cost them the game. The
Patriots coming off a referee assisted contest against the Steelers last week
lifting them again to the home field advantage leader in the AFC. This game is
very important for the Patriots as they understand that traveling for the
playoffs is a big disadvantage for them. Tom Brady should be on point as he
loves facing off against the Bills. I fully expect a game plan that will
exploit the Bills Line Backers, while finding holes in the defensive line for
the New England backs to gallop through. That being said, the Bills should be
prepared for this content and should give the Pats a run for their money. Even
if the Bills lose it won’t be a blowout.

One of the best games
on the morning slate goes to the Falcons and the Saints. These teams met just
two weeks ago, where Brees threw an errant pass over the middle in double
coverage to see it picked off in the endzone to end the game. This time this
contest will be held in New Orleans and Vegas has the Saints as a two field
goal favorite. The Falcons come into this one knowing that if they run the
table they will clinch a playoff spot and the motivation will be on extreme high.
Atlanta will run the ball a lot in this one to set up the play action in hopes
to get Julio free early and often. The Saints didn’t look as decisive as they
wanted in their win against the Jets last week. Mistakes again filled the game
as they had many big plays called back on replay overturns and costly
turnovers. They will have to be on their A-game in this one if they want to
keep pace with the Panthers for the NFC South crown. This game should be tight
as both teams won’t expose themselves to dangerous plays. NWO doesn’t cover the spread @ -6.5 ATL 13 NWO 23 (L)

The Chargers travel again
to the state of New York, this time to face the Jets. Another massively
important contest for LA as they hope to keep their playoff hopes alive. The
AFC West division title shouldn’t be in reach as the Chiefs should close out
the season with two wins. The Chargers will try and get back on track with
running the ball effectively setting up the pass game. The Jets played pretty
well early on last week in New Orleans as they gave the Saints a run for their
money. This week they will try and rattle Philip Rivers in making similar
mistakes as he did last week. Rivers has never been able to rise to the
occasion in big games with the teams aspirations on the line. I fully expect
the Chargers to win this contest, but with cross country travel and a team
willing to play spoiler, it should be close.

The LA Rams travel to
Tennessee to take on the biggest pretender in the NFL. The Titans have all but
sealed their fate with the last second loss in San Francisco last week.
Finishing off the season with the Rams and the Jags, the writing is on the wall
for the Titans to miss out on the 2017 playoffs. The Rams come to town on the strength
of an impressive blowout win in Seattle adjusting the power ranking in the NFC
West. Everything the Rams do ADF is a fan of. Preaching the love for this team
all season hasn’t disappointed, as Coach McVay has this squad firing on all cylinders
and we fully expect that to continue on Sunday. Todd Gurley will again make his
case known for his bid for league MVP as he will find holes all day through the
leaky Titans defense. This one should be an easy win and the Rams will keep
rolling. LAR covers the spread @ -6.5 LAR 27 TEN 23 (L)

A potential snooze
fest awaits us for this contest as the Broncs travel to Washington to face the
Skins. Both teams have nothing to play for other than pride and jobs as the
2017 season is already closed on these two clubs. Really the only aspect of
this game that has relevance will be the play of Kirk Cousins. He is literally
playing for money as he will try and impress upon other teams to sign him to a
long term big money deal in the offseason. Denver hasn’t said who the starter
will be as of yet at quarterback, but either way, it will be difficult to
envision any motivation coming from their side.

The extremely hot
Jacksonville Jaguars travel cross country to face off against the much improved
Jimmy G - San Fran 49ers. Game’s like these are important for the Jags as they
want to prove to the NFL that they are indeed for real. Any let down in a match
like this will again place doubt in the minds of the football world that the
Jags aren’t for real. Jimmy Garoppolo looks to be a super star on the rise in a
perfect system geared to exploit his talents and get the 49ers back on the
winning track. The interesting aspect of this contest should be how the
Jacksonville defense will game plan against the young quarterback. Defensively
San Fran isn’t a sound unit and should struggle to stop Leonard Fournette and
the newly high octane offense of the Jags. ADF is now a believer in what the
Jags bring to the table and should be an easy win for them. JAX covers the spread @ -4.5 JAX 33 SF 44 (L)

Another match that
will consist of playing for jobs in 2018 as this will likely be a snooze fest
as well. The Cardinals don’t have much left in the tank as they are going back
to journeymen Drew Stanton at quarterback. The Giants did look reinvigorated last
week against the Eagles but had a letdown and ended up losing the game. Eli Manning
is unfortunately in prove it mode to see if he can save his job or audition for
another team next season. The Giants should be able to get this win.

The broken Seahawks travel
to Dallas to face off against the Cowboys Sunday afternoon. This game could be something
of a moot point as the Saints-Falcons game could dictate the relevance of this contest.
Either way, the Cowboys get a massive boost as their star running back Zeke
Elliott returns from suspension and looks to get the rock a ton. Elliott will
once again prove he is extremely important to the Dallas offense as they should
be able to find their stride early against the Hawks injured defense. Russell
Wilson will be on point in this one, to shake off the stink from last week’s massive
blowout loss to the Rams. Wilson has masked the deficiencies of this Seattle
club for most of the season and it all has come back to reality of what this
team really is. Far too many injuries for any team to handle - backed with a sub-par run game and terrible offensive line, the Hawks will be looking forward
to the offseason to re-tool. If this game in fact does possess playoff
implications, the Cowboys should be able to dispose of the Hawks on the back of
Elliott, but this one is closer then Vegas suggests.

Merry Christmas as the
NFL gives us two games to end Week 16 as we sit down with our families and have
some turkey. The Steelers will be extremely angry with the outcome of last week’s
contest against the Patriots as this game now becomes important for home field
advantage. Pittsburgh will be without star receiver Antonio Brown, but won’t necessarily
need him as Bell and JuJu should be able to make up for what they will lose in
Browns absence. The Texans had so much promise in a season that saw all their
star talent find the medical room with long term injuries. This shouldn’t be
much of a contest even though the Steelers are prone to play to the level of
their opponent; home field advantage will get them extremely motivated in this
one. Expect a blowout from Ben and company. PIT covers the spread @ -9 PIT 34 HOU 6 (W)

To finish off Christmas
Day, the Eagles host the Raiders in a game that also sees home field as the
main motivator. The Raiders have been a complete disappointment this season on
both sides of the ball and have stamped their ticket to the offseason on the
fumble touch-back from last week’s Derek Carr’s missed opportunity. The Eagles
got a scare last week as the Giants came out strong taking the lead early, but
the Philly brass somehow calmed Nick Foles down to lead a fantastic comeback. The
last time Nick Foles played the Raiders, he broke the NFL record for the most
touchdown passes in a single game with seven. Building confidence in Foles to
lead this once league favorite (with Wentz), is very important and ADF fully
expects the Eagles to come out strong in this one. It will be a Merry Christmas
for the Eagles. PHI covers the spread
