Week 12 NFL GURU picks

I have a confession to make. 

While I had professed never to bet for your favorite team, I secretly have been and I have been winning my bets too.  While they will not make my locks this week because they fly east for an early game and are 3 point faves, they certainly are open to my bets again from here on out.

It's been busy times for the staff as Sunday morning has arrived, we are two hours away from kickoff and no submissions from Greco or the Mizz.  Although the Mizz is being his usual diva self, "Hey Damus are going to talk about a raise now since I finally went undefeated?"  Only took him all year.

Onto the picks!

Pit@Cle (+1.5) Are you serious Mr Damus? Are you really buying into the year of the home dogs? Better believe it baby! I almost took the under but it's too low at 33-34.  Why is it so low? Let's put the Brown's deficiencies aside and consider the Steelers situation. Big Ben is out, Leftwich is out, hello John Legend, err I mean Charlie Batch! Polamalu is still nursing a hurt calf, though if you tweet Ed Werder you might be able to find out his status for playing today. Lastly, a little reminder for gun safety folks, if you're packing heat and its in your pocket, put the safety on.  Which reminds me, Plax returns!

SF@NO (+2.5) Remember the last time these guys played? What a game! It ain't Alex Smith starting though, it's ya boy Kaepernick. The Saints have been quietly picking up some victories and have had a nice stretch ATS against NFC teams recently going 4-0.  Oh yeah don't forget, they're home dogs.

StL@Ari (U37.5) Remember that time long long ago when those NFC West beat writers were declaring the division as the new crème de la crème.  Well, year to date they have amassed a collective 7-12 record.  Perhaps next year. Last game between these two was a doozy with the Rams winning 20-3, look for the Cards to avenge their loss with a 21-13 victory at home.
