NFL Picks ~ Week Eighteen

Only a real degenerate would bet the NFL games this week, right? Well, some of us make the picks on every single game, every week, so here I am. With some teams who are playing backups, several teams with nothing to play for, and other teams still fighting for their playoff positions, it's a tricky week, to say the least.
