Week 16 NFL, Straight Up, Upset Pick of the Week

I got this idea from Gerk in the CFB forum. Which Underdog do you think will not only cover the spread, But win the game Straight Up. Please post your best Dog pick and the reason or opinion for your pick.

I'm in a Straight Up Pick Pool (No Spread) like a lot of other members on this site. We are Looking for any info that can give us an edge as there are only 2 weeks left and it is coming down to crunch time. Any and all info is appreciated...Thanks Frank

San Diego, SD is playing better and seems to be playing with a cause. Tampa Bay has been playing above their heads all season while SD has been playing below up until this last week. Look for SD to make a big push to get into the playoffs and watch Tampa Bay fall flat on their face. GLTU

Will take a good look @ Sea because of playing home, not sure how well the Jets play when traveling out West. Very hard to pull the trigger on the Lions, But home and I believe No Reggie Bush. Might be worth a shoot!!

Thanks Guys

Good insight Thanks Steel

What do you think about are Steelers? With Haynesworth out, I like Pitt to pull this one out. If the Offence would phucking score some points. They are riding the Defense to much.

Do the Steelers really want Homefield advantage. Are the Steelers better then the Titans at this point in the season, I think the answer is yes as they have now won on the road against as good or even better competition. This game should be like a SuperBowl to the Titans as they have to get on the winning ways before losing becomes a problem. Steelers have to be tired and beat up while Titans are playing at home. Lean to the home team at a pk but I can not see many points scored in this one. If the Steelers score 17 points I would be surprised. I know no way the titans will score 17. Under again this week looks to be the best bet. GLTU
