Week 17 NFL picks: Patriots finish the job vs. Jets; Bears, Seahawks are best bets

Well, one of us limping down the stretch worse than Tom Brady — at least he won last week — but the other is picking up steam.

Let's see who can finish the regular season off in style.

Bedard: "Mayday. Mayday. ... Bedard is leaking oil down the stretch and it appears his mind has locked up. ... I don't know how to explain it. Things were going so well, and then they weren't — sort of like the Steelers — and Price could actually pass me if I don't get this thing over the finish line. Time to turn things around and get hot for the postseason. Chris will probably turn to the Rams (like there's talent or any fun in that). I'm going with the Bears as my best bet. I don't trust that Vikings line against this Bears defense.

Price: "I am feeling it down the stretch, my friends. I owe every bit of my late-season success to my increased coffee intake. Let that be a lesson for you kids interesting in getting into the football-picking business. This week, I'm inclined to go with the Rams as my best bet for no other reason than this is my favorite jam of the year -- R-A-M ... hey hey -- but instead, I'll take another NFC West favorite, the Seahawks. Unfortunately, they do NOT have a catchy theme song."
