SGN Editor Matt Loede’s NFL Picks For Week 17

Last Week: 10-6 Season: 143-94 Miami at New England – The question will be if the Pats will play anyone. New England can’t gain anything with a win or a loss, so likely Tom Brady and co. will play a bit, but that’s about it. The Fins would love to end the season with a [...]

Last Week: 7-9 Season: 133-88 Thursday: Carolina at Pittsburgh – The Steelers are not a happy crew after falling to the Jets last Sunday, and they should be able to take it out on the two-win Panthers in a pre-Christmas game at Heinz Field.
