Take a bow, NFL schedule makers. When they had San Francisco at Baltimore slated for Week 13, they never could have imagined it would be 10-1 vs. 9-2. Adding to the buzz is how both teams dominated last week: The 49ers manhandled the Packers, 37-8, on SNF and then the Ravens crushed the Rams, 45-6, on MNF. In a week full of eventful matchups, this is clearly the best one.
Underdogs went 9-5 against the spread last week and are 98-75-3. There are no more byes, so say hello to 16-game weeks from here on out.
My most confident picks ATS are the Cardinals, Ravens, Jets, Vikings and Panthers. Stay away from Titans-Colts (too close to call) and Bucs-Jags (too inconsistent to care).
