Dean’s List: Pro Picks Week 17
Last Week: 7-9 (my worst to date)
Overall: 119-83
St. Louis at Atlanta
Atlanta has a playoff spot clinched, but could still win the division. They’ll do their part.
Atlanta 23 – St. Louis 0
New England at Buffalo
New England needs help to win the AFC East. They’ll do their part in beating Buffalo
New England 34 – Buffalo 3
Kansas City at Cincinnati
So NOW the Bengals come on.
Cincinnati 23 – Kansas City 20
Detroit at Green Bay
Detroit will try desperately to not be the first 0-16 team. And like every other time…
Green Bay 28 – Detroit 27
Chicago at Houston
Chicago still has something to play for. Houston is looking to be a spoiler.
Houston 23 – Chicago 12
Tennessee at Indianapolis
Neither team really has anything to play for at this point. But the Colts will send a message.
Indianapolis 27 – Tennessee 17
New York Giants at Minnesota
Minnesota needs this to win the NFC Norris Division.
Minnesota 17 – New York Giants 13
Carolina at New Orleans
Carolina needs to win to hold off Atlanta and win the NFC South.
Carolina 30 – New Orleans 28
Cleveland at Pittsburgh
Game means nothing to nobody.
Pittsburgh 17 – Cleveland 3
Oakland at Tampa Bay
Tampa was looking good just three weeks ago until they turned into the New York Mets of football.
Tampa Bay 20 – Oakland 17
Jacksonville at Baltimore
Baltimore is still on a roll, unless they’re playing Pittsburgh
Baltimore 38 – Jacksonville 17
Miami at New York Jets
This is the game of the week. And who would’ve thought Miami could turn its fortunes around like this.
Miami 17 – New York Jets 14
Dallas at Philadelphia
Another big showdown with playoff implications.
Dallas 23 – Philadephia 7
Seattle at Arizona
Arizona better turn it on or it’ll be one and done in the playoffs.
Arizona 24 – Seattle 14
Washington at San Francisco
Washington will come on a little too late.
Washington 34 – San Francisco 7
Denver at San Diego
This is for all the marbles in the AFC West. I never believed San Diego had a chance…until now.
San Diego 20 – Denver 17



I THINK THEY WILL RUSH Roethlisberger back.TO THE FIELD.
