| TODAY'S EPISODE: We agree to disagree about picks (except one) |
| The Bears are only 4-point favorites in San Francisco, which is a STINKY LINE if there ever was one. Nick Kostos (he returns!), Pete Prisco and R.J. White all agree with me that the Niners could win outright, but we disagree on the rest of the slate as we pick every game, go over playoff motivation (the Rams might sit everyone if the Saints win) and more. |

| Prisco's best bets: Steelers, other 'dogs bite |
| Pete Prisco watched his picks turn to garbage last week and now he's got a lot of catching up to do in the SuperContest. Pete's comeback strategy: 'Dogs all day. Pete says the Steelers will show speed in the Superdome, the emotional Raiders will win their last game in Oakland, and one NFC North team will get SHOCKED out west. |

| Ranking Foles' 2019 landing spots, from 1-9 |
| It's December, so Nick Foles must be saving the Eagles' season, but where will he play next year? Bovada actually put out odds and has the Giants as the most likely destination, but Cody Benjamin isn't buying it. Cody says Eli is still the apple of N.Y.'s eye (for some reason), and his No. 1 landing spot didn't even make Bovada's top eight. |

| Will Brinson's Stunningly Accurate Best Bets |
| I've reeled off a 9-1 record the last two weeks and now I want to close strong, but I'm veering away from taking strictly underdogs. MOTIVATION IS KEY. I'm a little worried everyone will be on the Chargers, but their D is so much better than what Lamar Jackson has faced, and I'm also hopping on a bandwagon everyone else just hopped off. |

| Mock Draft: Giants get some protection for Eli |
| The Giants can't go into 2019 with Eli Manning as their starting QB, can they? CAN THEY? Pat Shurmur made it seem like they will, so Chris Trapasso says if they're sticking with Eli, they'd better get him some protection. Chris has the Giants going OL at No. 8, and you'll definitely want to see who the Browns added to help Baker Mayfield. |

| Why Baker, not Barkley, should be Rookie of the Year |
| It's perplexing to see that Saquon Barkley is such a big favorite to win OROY. He's been great, I get it, but Saquon's a RUNNING BACK, and if you haven't been paying attention, RBs don't matter. Here's exactly why Baker Mayfield should be OROY, and I also linked to Sean Wagner-McGough's (completely wrong) argument for why it should be Saquon. |

| La Canfora's Best Bets: Browns cover big spread |
| Backing a Browns team favored by a TD (or any number, really) has historically been a losing strategy but ... this feels different. Jason La Canfora says the Browns are actually one of the AFC's best teams, and they'll have an entire city behind them in their home finale and stomp Cincy. JLC's also got two other home teams as his best bets. |

| Fantasy Sleepers: These guys can win you a title |
| We know Cam Newton's out and Todd Gurley's questionable, and those are just two would-be Fantasy starters who could burn you in your Week 16 title game. Luckily, Jamey Eisenberg has some sneaky sleepers who can come to the rescue, including a Bills WR who's been on an absolute tear since Week 10. |
