We Called The Raiders, Did YOU?

Week 17  “Money Where Your Mouth Is” looks to be the first week that’ll go down without a win. While we had a winning record against the spread this week (9-6-1), the 3 bets we recommended lost…go figure. Our prediction of the Raiders playing spoiler in Tampa came through, along with our other upsets including the Colts and Texans, but we’re a little  unhappy with a couple of our predictions.

As a result of today’s wacky upsets, the Philadelphia Eagles are going to the playoffs thanks to the Raiders and Texans. The biggest thanks may belong to the missed field goal in overtime by Cincinnati to give them the tie-breaking “tie” over the Cowboys. The Cowboys and Buccaneers had haunting losses today that will definitely play in an interesting offseason. Gridiron Experts wouldn’t be surprised if both teams were blown up and re-built.

Gridiron Experts is putting together a free playoff pool called “Beat The Experts”, and after a bad week with our picks (even though we had a winning record in a tough season), this would be a great time to sign up and play for great prizes. Check back tomorrow for sign ups!
