$300.00 Take #131 Minnesota (-7) over Chicago (8:30 p.m., Monday, Dec. 28)
The Bears are really bad right now and have lost seven straight games ATS. Minnesota is looking to rebound from an embarrassing performance and they still need a win to lock up the No. 2 seed and a first round bye. They will pour it on their rivals.

$600.00 Take #129 Dallas (-7) over Washington (8 p.m., Sunday, Dec. 27)
Dallas is playing better than people think right now. They should not have lost their game in New York against the Giants and then lost to a hot San Diego team. Then they had to go to New Orleans and they beat the best team in football. Those are three tough games. They might have taken their win for granted over the Redskins in the first meeting but they won't make the same mistake twice. Dallas lays the wood and we collect big against a bad Redskins team that is in total disarray.

$300.00 Take #112 Miami (-3) over Houston (1 p.m., Sunday, Dec. 27)
I like the Dolphins here and I think that they get a blowout winner. Houston did not play well against a bad St. Louis team last week and I don't think that they are good enough to "turn it on". Houston doesn't run the ball very effectively and I think that Miami's pass rush will be to much in this one. Miami is on a 6-2 ATS run and I think that they will take care of business.

$3000.00 Take #120 Pittsburgh (-2.5) over Baltimore (1 p.m., Sunday, Dec. 27)
This is part of the 99 System. Pittsburgh might have saved its season with Big Ben’s last touchdown pass against Green Bay last week. I think that the Steelers have a lot of momentum from that last-second victory and that it will carry over against a division rival. Pittsburgh almost beat the Ravens in Baltimore and with Pitt playing its backup quarterback. Now that they are home I think that the defending champions will win this game handily. There is great value with this line and even though this will be a hard fought game I like the Steelers to take it by a touchdown.
