2014 NFL Betting Picks - Week 17
Pick 1: Detroit +7.5 
Pick 2: San Diego -1
Pick 3: Carolina +3
I'm not sure how I'm still above 50%. It's been 3 losing weeks in a row and 4 of the last 5. It wasn't until week 10 perfect picks that I haven't seen profits. The disappointment is unbearing. Need to snap this streak big time.
This week we have 3 premium picks and we are keeping the bankroll at 25%. This gives us a bet of $650 per game for this week.

Regrettably, I won't be making it to Lambeau today. The SO's passport was expired, and I think I'd get to much grief leaving her home alone with the kids.
On the bright side, I'm six games up in my ATS pool going into this week. One game back in multiple Pick'em pools, so hopefully SD and CAR come through for me, and not everyone else picks them too.
Good luck to everyone in Week 17.
@GB (-8.7)
@KC (-7.8)
@ATL (-7.4)
Solid edges for all of the home teams vs the Vegas line. I would stay away from the KC pick given their QB issues.
Good luck all.
