Looking at these to matchups today, i see some opportunity to take advantage of public money going to these contests.
KC @ Denver +11 - This matchup is one that the public supports the Chiefs and I have to agree with the choice. KC was embarrassed @ Cincy last week and this is an opportunity for them to "right the ship" at Denver. KC owns Denver and they also have a carrot dangling in front of them with a chance to close out the season and gain HFA throughout the playoffs with a win today. While 10.5-11 is a lot of wood to lay on the road, I believe the Chiefs will not let their foot off the gas as they did at Cincinnati. The Chiefs IMHO will lead from start to finish and once they have a substantial lead, they'll keep their foot on the Bronco's neck till the gun sounds in the 4th qtr. The 22 - 9 win over Denver in KC was not a fluke and I expect the same kind of effort and result today. Drew Lock will not make any difference in this game although he's playing well of late, too much KC "D" today.
Dallas @ Philadelphia +4 - This game is a real mess, with neither team having much incentive to play today. My choice is based more on the "momentum factor" than anything else and while there's been a lot of public money dropped of the Eagles, I believe Dallas is he play here. Losing at home to AZ last week was a real wakeup call for the Cowboys and based on the reports out of Cowboy's camp, all indications are that Dallas is going to play their starters potentially into the 3rd qtr. while the Eagles have no intention of putting in their starters in a meaningless game based on seeding that won't change for them win or lose. I see Dallas playing to a big lead before replacing starters and getting some much needed momentum going into the playoffs. I liked the Cowboys at -6. I love em at -4. I believe they cover this small # easily and coast to a relatively easy win on the road at the "City of Brotherly Love".
Other games I'm considering but will solidify tomorrow:
NYJ @ Buffalo - 16 I know it's a big number, but the Bills win the division with a win and NE loss, so some incentive there, also they blew em out in NY back in November 45 - 17, can't see anything that's changed since then and they're home today to close out the season.
Tenn @ Houston +11 Houston went on the road and beat Tennessee 22-13 back in November and match up well with the Titans. I think pride will be a factor here and the Titans have pretty much locked up the division, so I'm taking the large # for the cover.
SF @ LA Rams - 4.5 the 49ers have the Ram's number and this should be a low scoring, hard hitting and close game that SF could win, they've won the last 5 matchups right?

KC really disappointed me today, that defense was not the same one that smothered the Broncos in November. They won the game, but their defensive weaknesses were revealed and they better hope that they're home throughout the playoffs, because the defense that played today ain't gonna stand up against the elite AFC teams they're going to face in the playoffs.
Dallas looks like they're gonna take care of business at Philly ( up 30-17 at half). That was my biggest play for the weekend, I should have a nice bankroll to take to Sunday's games as I don't see the Boys having a problem covering the 4 point spread. Hope everyone lands on their feet this weekend, smoke the bookies!!!
