Las Vegas - Sunday starts with the Chiefs -9.5 points over the Texans. Revenge is just one of the courses on the table in Kansas City. The rest of the meal boils down to Patrick Mahomes. Revenge first. Houston rolled into Kaycee back in October as a +10.5 point dog, and beat the Chiefs, 31-24. Deshaun Watson was pretty solid, 30/42 for 280 yards and Carlos Hyde had 116 on the ground.

THIRTY EIGHT POINTS! Think they'll miss the big guy? Dumb question, but easy answer. OH YEA!
Read MoreLas Vegas - Looking at the college hoop board again, we'll try San Diego State -16 points over Wyoming. Never easy to lay a gigantic bundle on the road, but if you have not heard, the Aztecs are one of only two teams (the other is Auburn) in the country still working on a perfecto. They are 15-0 and should be able to cruise up in Laramie. They are also a perfect 5-0 against the spread on the road. The Cowboys have won only two of their last 10, against Denver and Nebraska Wesleyan, WHO?
