THE ART AND SCIENCE OF PICKING GOLF WINNERS
1. CLOSER with CHARACTER. Certain guys see the finish line and cross it and others are destined for second place.
2. RELAXED CONFIDENCE, FOCUS and a HUNGER to win. It's a mental game and their mind has to be in the right frame with a determination and focus. As Harry Vardon said: "To play well you must feel tranquil and at peace. I have never been troubled by nerves in golf because I felt I had nothing to lose and everything to gain."
3. COURSE. Does the course layout favor the strengths of the golfer and does it expose their weaknesses. Previous form can change immediately for those who feel comfortable on a course and its greens.

I would take the Packers over both AFC teams, and the Bears over the Jets. The only AFC team I would consider is the Steelers over the Bears, and that depends on where the line goes.

Im suprised AFC is still favored, early this week Bill Simmons' espn insider guy that talks to sharps in vegas said the line was AFC -2.5 at the time.

Seems like they are not too worried about a chi/pitt matchup to me.

I did my own lines on these. I had Pitt 3 over GB so I would be all over Pitt there. I also had Bears and Jets at a PK. Bears beat em this year so 4.5 looks a little off.
