GREEN BAY PACKERS (-3.5) over Minnesota Vikings (4:25 p.m. Eastern, CBS)
The Vikings have enjoyed a sparkling, sustained seasonal run, and good for them. We’ve seen that spiking levels of performance are unlikely to be sustained indefinitely.

CINCINNATI BENGALS (+1) over Buffalo Bills (8:30 p.m. ET, ESPN)
Clash of the titans? Without a doubt. But with Cincinnati’s muscular modern history catching points at home, no way we’re going to fade Wunderkind QB Joe Burrow given the Bills’ previous disappointing postseason history. Here, also, performance level limits can exist, especially when up against sides which are more than capable defending against hot form into the postseason.

Last week: 1-1. Steelers (W). Seahawks (L)
2022 season: 16-15-1.
