It’s time for December football. It begins on Sunday.
That means November is in the past, which is a good thing. I can’t think of a worse November I’ve had picking games. It’s been horrendous. My colleagues on CBSSportsHQ have taken to mocking me.
Yes, it’s that bad. I went 5-8 against the spread and 7-6 straight-up. That brings my season record to 80-96-3 ATS and 107-72-0 straight up.
Time to flip a coin to pick games? The coin would kill me.
As it is, I will stick to my own evaluations and hope it turns around. It won’t be any worse. December is upon us. Time to make a playoff push.

Pick: Bengals 26, Steelers 20

Pick: Texans 33, Jaguars 20
