Packers were a dog on my site as well... thought it was a typo, you'd think they'd play a full team with having a bye week while the Lions are more likely to rest players for next week?

+2.5 in my pool, too.

Believe it's a matter of a team with a clinched post season berth playing

its second/third string teams to eliminate any possibility of injury.

A total of fifteen picks still to go (4 for Week $17 + then all 11 post season games).

+3 = underdog

+ any digit = underdog

Whether it's + 2.5 or + 3.0 Houston is by definition an underdog and Tenn is the favorite in Week #17...
and it's not even one of your picks. If I'm missing the point, please spell it out for me.

P.S. Anybody know where trev is hiding?
