Wash +12

KC +5.5

Under 53.5 (BOTH GAMES)

Teaser at +6.

Allen is most definitely the MVP, but not sure how the media will vote it. However Buff has many weaknesses that better teams seem to find and exploit. Last week Jackson had 2 TD passes which is always a good feat in the NFL, and 7 targets to the TE who on those targets was wide open. KC has duly noted these weaknesses and Buff will pay. Allen might be the best player at his position, but he doesn't play defense. For Buffalo to exploit all their opportunities, they simply have to use Josh Allen rushing the ball. Mahomes will be let loose for sidleine scampers, and Allen has to do the same.

KC's defense under the seasoned veteran Spagnuolo is better than the NYG teams he led to the SB many moons ago (2007--)...maybe the best corners in the NFL. Watching KC over the years, in big games they bend but don't break.

I believe both these games will go under the number because the defenses on all 4 teams left are statistically and not surprisingly, the top 4 in the league. All of these teams score on close to 50% of their drives, but elite defenses hold teams to FG opportunities in crunch time. Guys are playing to get into the SB and will try to win every matchup....

These two games will be very close to the end, and will likely play in game both KC and Wash, depending on flow of the game and other in game circumstances.

Completely agree.....Well, they beat them already, I believe 36-33, just a month ago, and looked like they were in control of that game, very confident playmakers.

Pressure is on Philly. That can't be good in any sport.

KC has Buffalo's number. Sorry haters gonna hate for me saying that, but......

KC is on another level as a professional FB team, and the fans can see it when they come on the field, during warm ups. Kelce will have a monster performance in the next two games.

Is this a new gold plated coin he's selling?

Well, for one, I can tell you it won't be part of a Palestinian state. Even though there is a ceasefire and Israel has killed all the "terrorists," ( a condition for statehood for the US, the only dissenting voice preventing statehood).

Will AIPAC be labelled a "foreign lobbying entity," as JFK requested in 1963, but has since never been brought up again? Not holding my breath for that one either....

The "POS" spent the first minutes of his speech insulting all the past Presidents in the room by stating how they "sold out the US..." That's rich, Donald. He seems incapable of even faking a sobering mindset, even in those hallowed halls under a painting of Pres George Washington. Sounded like the 'empire simps' cheered...

Odd seeing 19-21 yr olds pulling in 4-8 million. Sanders' son bought his o-line new cars.....and would wear $20,000 necklace during the game. There are going to be extremes, and I can't say what is best or even fair compensation, but it is right now--excessive money.

2 out of 5 props

Made $$ on Ohio St in game and on the over.

Was ND however the correct call// if u think about it, came down to a missed FG--or ND not going for it in the redzone.

ND defense was awful on 3rd most of the game'

congrats Ohio !! Much deserved for the school, for Columbus, for coach Day....

Does Ohio St play bully now?

Is this "King Donnie" .....in the room with you now?

Interesting way to do it....

I thought you Yanks had the day off for "President's Day, because of the inauguration....

Learn something new everyday.......

As far as coaches go, this is the best one ND has had in awhile. It showed against Georgia, Penn St.

And if Riley Leonard goes off, he will be a legend at ND, maybe more so than the "two Joes" (Montana and Theismann).

I am rooting for them.......I have no bet on the side, but may go either way if there's any indication one or the other is sliding into their tendencies, bad habits.

Hate to mention I am not really looking forward to this game.

For this game to have intrigue, would have to have a super performance from Leonard+Love,, and a subpar performance from Ohio State.

Hope it is a good game, but more than likely will be a 'bully game'

I don't think ND will look as bad as the last time ND was here. Brian Kelley is not that great a HC --case in point, wee all see how great Jayden Daniels is, and makes you wonder (LSU boosters are wondering) how in the hell LSU diidn't at least make it to the Natty with him. ALabama destroyed ND (2013 42-13)

ND is far better coached here. I am hoping ND stays within one score here, but I will not be wagering for that.

Both teams teams rank #1-#2 in drive efficiency, and a reason these two are in this position for the title.

Maybe you can make sense of these stats  (points per drive and time per drive) for their offense and defense. Ohio St opponents basically average a minute per drive, one of the lowest in the nation.

ND usually starts games off playing a field position strategy.They have at least two NFL prospects who will be starting on Sundays on that front line. This is how they beat Georgia (was not a fluke game). Good tackle evading rushes from Love, also Leonard.

ND +16 in turnovers. They will need a turnover in this game. Howard has 10 INTs--he could get careless here.

Ohio St  is improving in offense as the season progresses, and this is a challenge for opponents, as they have evolved effective rushing counter plays, RPOs off of it, and the players now have these better offensive plays finely tuned  ...obviousl6y a credit to Chip Kelley's game planning. ND better be sharp early, because will get more difficult....

1st qtr lowest scoring quarter

Love anytime TD

Will Howard to throw an INT

Will Howard over 1+/1.5 TD passes

OSU TE Herbrstreit over 50 yards

...................................

In game:

will wait to see a low scoring 1st quarter, watching the live total dip to around 40-42 (from 45) and play the total over at that point. Don't believ in a Georgie like game, more of a Penn St type scoring (Ohio St connecting where PSU could not).

ND can play well, have several highlights, and still lose by 17. Riley Leonard's stats don't bear out a great game through the air, but ND was in the top five in starting field position, and with a good running game, he isn't going to be slinging it all over the field for them, esp early in any game.

ND wants a game similar to how they played Georgia, and how OSU lost to Michigan. Field position, moving the chains. I will likely be playing OSU in game.

It helps OSU prepare for this game to see the film vs PSU, a common opponent. Allar (PSU QB) is NOT an accurate downfield passer but Howard is, with 33 TDs on the season.

ND needs a lot of Irish luck, at least 3 turnovers, a great passing game from Leonard (over 200 yards) , great rushing game from Love (over 100 yds)...., just to have a shot with time running down. Too much to ask....

3-0

Did not watch every play of this game, but did watch the Andrews' drop. But looking hos Buffalo moved the ball afterwards, sure looked like they would win it anyways on a late FG, but we'll never know.

Expecting a close game between KC nd Buffalo and a lot of targets for Kelce, based on how Balt was able to get great chances for Andrews, their TE, against this Buffalo defense.

Buffalo ranks high in the redzone (most TDs). All four teams left get points around 50% of their drives (points per drive stats).

2-0

Pretty rare to see an OL cost a team a win, but the RG, Dotson (with the padded helmet) must have run out of gas and concentration. He did a costly false start, then he misses a block on a linebacker by seeing noone coming immediately , he goes to his right to help the RT, who didn't need help....and left the linebacker untouched. Without those two blunbers, have to believe the Eagles can guard Nacua, Kupp, Robinson for four plays in a row.

.....

HT and Ravens down 11. Going to play Ravens here. Jackson w/ 2 turnovers. If he stops that nonsense, they could close the gap.

I believe Buffalo hangs on.....but will not blow them out. We'll see.......

Campbell (assume we're talking that game) gambled big time.....They needed a staedy drive....they were moving the ball. There was no need to try make a completion with a non QB, a receiver.....no need for high risk there down ten points and approaching the 10 minute mark. That had to be the worst play call I have ever seen. Goff is doing fine. Why take it out of his hands there? At least tell the receiver--"hey, an incomplete pass could be the best play if he aint wide open..."

Game was over right there with the int.

@MRxKrazz

 They always win ugly. And when they cover, which is rare, they look like they had no right to.

They completely shut down the Texans offense in the 4th quarter. I BELIEVE they will do this again. But everyone watching them saw at times, a sputtering, backfiring engine.

LAR +6.5 and Over 42 (Not parlayed).

Almost always automatically play +8.0 to 8.5 and +6 to +6.5.

I think Rams will push Eagles to put up points.

.........................

Bills will be an in game wager only. Will play either side once down 2+ scores (no lead will be "safe"). I don't believe the winner of this game will beat the Chiefs. Game vs Chiefs will be lower scoring than this game.

31-28

Phi 33 Wash 36

12-22024

One more game and they're in the SB.

And they played the Eagles already, and didn't that come down to one play? And didn't they beat them?

They got past the top seed and looked like they were cruising through it.

Wash passes the eye test for me, in every category. They score half their possesions; play gutsy, get 4th don conversions, play with poise.... they are the best team left in the NFC.

12 men on the field.....

thats on the def coordinator not to cll a timeout

The razzle dazzle play and allow a non QB to read a defense, as Tom said, BAD TIMING for that....

And no stops at all for the Lions D that was overrated, full of injuries, and Daniels just ate them alive.

Goff had to play perfect just to have a shot in a shootout.
