NFL Picks: Office pool pick’em – Conference Championships

Use our staff’s weekly pick’em against the spread and straight up for the win.

NFL picks are provided for straight up (moneyline) and against the spread (ATS) NFL pick pools.

What does Vegas think of Titans’ chances against Chiefs or Texans?

Las Vegas isn’t sold on the Titans, yet. The AFC Championship Game odds would KC favored and Houston in a pick game with Tennessee.

The Tennessee Titans went into New England and ousted the favored Patriots in an AFC Wild-Card game. They went into Baltimore as the sixth seed and stunned the top-seeded Ravens. Now, they will face either the Houston Texans or Kansas City Chiefs in a third straight road test for the AFC Championship.

Is Vegas sold on Mike Vrabel and his Titans? Shocked sounds more like it.

The Titans hold a win over both the Chiefs and Texans. They split the season series with Houston, losing 24-21 to their AFC South counterparts in Week 15 before clinching a playoff spot with a 35-14 romp in Week 17. In the second matchup, the Texans rested a lot of their regulars. Derrick Henry rushed for 86 yards in the loss to Houston but had 211 yards on the ground and three TDs in the last week of the regular season.

In their matchup with Kansas City, Ryan Tannehill threw a 23-yard touchdown pass to Adam Humphries with 23 seconds left to give Tennessee a 35-32 victory. That was the last time the Chiefs lost in the regular season, going on a six-game winning streak to finish 12-4 Patrick Mahomes threw for 446 yards and three TDs for KC. Henry had 188 yards rushing and 2 TDs.
