Here are your Late Consensus Picks for the NFL games of Sunday, Dec. 22.
VERY STRONG PLAYS: Tennessee +3 New Orleans
STRONG PLAYS: Atlanta -7 Jacksonville
REGULAR PLAYS:
Cincinnati -1 1/2 Miami
Arizona +9 Seattle
Chicago +6 1/2 Kansas City
Washington +1 NY Giants
Pittsburgh--NY Jets UNDER 37
NORM'S LATE THOUGHTS: The more I studied the Baltimore--Cleveland game the more it seems to me that the Browns are a total mess. Several players seem to want out. QB Mayfield is a mess. We know they'll get out-coached. Baltimore meanwhile seems laser focused. While the Ravens may not need this one technically, the Browns seem to "need" the season to be over.
TAKE: Baltimore-10 Cleveland

FOOTBALL
Here are your Late Consensus Picks on the college and NFL games of Saturday, Dec. 21
VERY STRONG PLAYS: None
STRONG PLAYS: App. State -16 1.2 UAB
REGULAR PLAYS:
SMU--Florida Atlantic UNDER 64 1/2
Buffalo +6 1/2 New England
Buffalo--New England U NDER 37
NORM'S LATE THOUGHTS: The SMU spread has leaped to the Ponies now being an 8-point favorite (were favored by 3) because of multiple key suspensions to skill position players on FAU. Game like this, in my memory, are undependable to play on so I'll be skipping this one entirely (including the total).
