Default Re: any thoughts on these nfl picks

chiefs +3 is what a majority of people are betting, so it's just a matter of getting a good price. if you can still find +3-110, I would jump on that and then maybe even hedge some back on the other side if it goes down to -2.5 on the G-men. otherwise, you might be laying too much and only playing for a push.

considering the built-in 3 point home field advantage, the line is saying that the giants are 6 points "better" than the chiefs in this scenario. of course, both teams have bad-luck kickers and anything could happen if the game is close, so slight advantage KC. the chiefs may have slightly higher motivation since the giants still have one game up in the division and should finish the season no worse than 11-5, while the Chiefs must win just to keep the hopes alive for the #6 spot in the AFC, since the Jags' remaining schedule have them virtually ensured the top wild card.
