1. San Francisco 49ers (PICK) vs. Sea – The Seahawks have been burying bad teams, scoring 50+ points in consecutive games.
That won’t happen on Sunday.
Jim Harbaugh hates Pete Carroll from their college coaching days and the 49ers, coming off an impressive win in NE last Sunday, will pull out the tough win in the Pacific Northwest.

2. Carolina Panthers (-8.5) vs. Oak – The Raiders don’t travel well, and are a mess defensively. Cam Newtown is playing very well and will lead the Panthers to an easy win.
3. Green Bay Packers (-13) vs. Ten – Nearly two TDs is a lot to give for the point spread, but the Packers are playing for a No. 2 seed and getting healthy on D at the right time.
4. Arizona Cardinals (+5.5) vs. Chi – The Bears are in a downward tailspin and the desert is never an easy place to play.
The Rest
St. Louis Rams (+3) vs. TB – See money line bet.
Indianapolis Colts (-6.5) vs. KC – The Chiefs’ goal is the top pick in the 2013 NFL Draft. Don’t expect too much fight this week.
Miami Dolphins (-4.5) vs. Buf – The Bills gave Miami a beating a month ago. Look for Miami to return the favor in South Beach.
Money Line Bet
St. Louis Rams (+140) vs. TB – The 41-0 blowout for the Bucs last week was a bad omen. Greg Schiano’s message isn’t getting through like it was earlier in the year. The Rams will rebound from a disappointing Week 15 loss to the Vikings.
