Tank the 401k: 2017 NFL Wild Card Edition

Share This Post

Welcome all degenerate gamblers back into my weekly American football column, Tank the 401k. Here, I will divulge all my professional eagle-eyed opinions on the upcoming week. Call your bookie and empty those retirement accounts!

Tough close to the 2017 season, but hey – we finished at 55% so I’ll take it. If you hung with me all season, you won money, and that’s good.

Can’t believe another year is in the books but we have some big games.

BIG NATURAL’S TANK THE 401K PICKS

NFL: Tennessee +8 @ Kansas City – This Titans team isn’t going to excite a lot of people nationally, but I’m not sleeping on them just because they’re “boring.” The Chiefs have a bad rushing defense, so I think there’s actually a chance the Titans can control the ball and control the clock and keep it close. Plus, this team seems fired up after an emotional win to get into the playoffs.

NFL: Atlanta +6.5 @ Los Angeles – I would not be surprised if the Falcons won this one outright. The Rams don’t have any playoff experience, and the Falcons are coming off of a NFC Championship season. They’ll be hungry, and this game will be close.

NFL: Buffalo +9 @ Jacksonville – I’m not confident in this Bills team at all, but man – nine points is nine points, and it’s a playoff game! If I’m actually betting, I’m probably just going to stay away from this game. But, since I’m just writing a joke ass column, I’m picking Buffalo to hang within nine.

NFL: New Orleans -6.5 vs. Carolina – I like the Saints big at home, and the Carolina offense is the difference. They just can’t seem to get anything going, and the Saints actually have a decent defense. I trust Drew Brees and a strong running game a lot more in this game. I think they win by at least a touchdown.

Last Week: (1-4)
On the Season: (47-39-5) – 55%
