NFL WEEK 18 PREVIEW (Part Deux): Jets have lost their last 4 by 32/23/28/24 points. They are 0-5 vs Division (2-3 ATS)&lost 10-30 hosting Bills Wk 2. Bills can do no better than 5 seed so Allen might be rested. No matter Mitch Trubisky is good enuff&Jets are, well, the Jets! Take BUFFALO BILLS (-8)

NFL WEEK 18 PREVIEW: Cowboys potent offense has been blunted by a porous Defense giving up more than 20pts each of Last 6 games. So NOW they cut star CB Trevon Diggs for misconduct. 7 of Cowboys L10&4 of L5 vs Div have been OVER. 5 of Giants L6&all 5 vs Div have been high. TOP SELECTION = OVER49.5
