Written by on January 20, 2017

It’s that time. The best Sunday in all of the National Football League season. You may think we are talking about Super Bowl Sunday. While that’s a huge game, and fun to follow, the best Sunday according to most is coming up this weekend. The NFL Conference Round will take place, and we are here to give you the best NFL betting picks to bet Against the Spread.

2017 NFL Conference Round ATS Picks

Green Bay Packers +4.5 over Atlanta Falcons

The Green Bay Packers are on fire. The Packers have won 8 straight games, and look great doing so. The Packers needed to win their final 6 games of the regular season to even get into the postseason. Green Bay also has postseason wins over the New York Giants and the Dallas Cowboys. Aaron Rodgers is likely going to finish runner up for the Most Valuable Player. The quarterback had another monster season, and continues to dominate without turning over the football. Jordy Nelson, the Packers top receiver is questionable for this game. Speaking of question, so is the Atlanta Falcons to receiver Julio Jones. Jones has an injury, but many expect him to play. Matt Ryan is likely the Most Valuable Player, as he came up with just under 5,000 passing yards on the season. Atlanta won the NFC South, and then got a bye in the first round of the postseason. Last week, the Falcons beat the Seattle Seahawks at home. DeVonta Freeman is another key cog to help quarterback Matt Ryan and receiver Julio Jones to force a fearsome trio. Look for the Green Bay Packers to head out on the road and win this game. There is no stopping Aaron Rodgers, and he is going to pick up a huge road win and advance to Super Bowl 51. Bet on the Green Bay Packers +4.5 over the Atlanta Falcons

Pittsburgh Steelers +5 over New England Patriots

The final game will feature the Pittsburgh Steelers on the road at the New England Patriots. The Steelers have the longest winning streak in all of the NFL. The Steelers have won 9 straight games. Pittsburgh was 4-5, and struggling to stay alive in the AFC North. Since that point, they have not lost. Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell have been the best combination of receiver and running back in the league. Brown torched the Dolphins in the first round with two quick touchdown receptions. The New England Patriots have Tom Brady. Thats a big deal, because he has played in this game as the starting quarterback six straight seasons. Brady is doing it without his top target Rob Gronkowski most of the season. The Patriots are playing with different guys most weeks, but they still won 14 regular season games. The running back for New England, LeGarrette Blount led all of the league with 18 rushing touchdowns. The second best Against the Spread goes to the Pittsburgh Steelers +5. Just too much offensive firepower, and the Patriots struggle. Take the Steelers +5!
