2025 NFL Pick ‘Em Week 12

Not a good week for this guy. I only got five right. Ryan won this week with nine, with Jon right behind him at 8. I am still in first place, but my lead is shrinking. I am two ahead of Michael, and five up on Ryan, Jon, and Sean. I need a good week to regain a good lead. 

Underdog Special: Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+6.5)
What was I thinking last week? The Bengals were going to keep it close. Maybe I should bet against the Steelers every week, lose money, but at least the Steelers win. This week I am taking the Buccaneers. I think the Rams win easily, but Baker and the Bucs keep it somewhat close. I could see a late touchdown making it a one-score game, but it will not feel like a close game, know what I mean?
Underdog Special Record: 5-5 (-$.90)

Steelers Prediction: I was right about them winning, but I was wrong about the game. I thought it would be a low-scoring dogfight, and it ends up being an ass-kicking. This week, I am taking them to beat the Bear. I know, Rodgers is out, but I have a feeling Mason Rudolph will have a nice game. Also, Caleb Williams is the type of QB that TJ Watt can neutralize and make look silly. 
Steelers Prediction Record: 5-5

3-Team Parlay: New England Patriots (ML), Steelers/Bears Under 44.5, Saquon Barkley 50+ Rushing Yards–(+222)
What the heck happened to the Chargers last week? I hit on the other two, but Harbaugh’s team really let me down. Or maybe I should start considering the Jaguars are good team. I need to get back to the positive.
3-Team Parlay Record: 2-8 (-$1.09)
