Long story short, a long season full of road upsets is winding down, but not before these NFL Week 16 picks:
49ers 26, Rams 14: While most of us are tempted to look ahead to their Week 17 showdown at Seattle, 49ers’ Pro Bowl snubs Arik Armstead and DeForest Buckner are laser focused on Jared Goff. Only 40 points total? It’s a tribute to halftime entertainer E-40 (and P-Lo) with the “Bang, bang, Niner, gang” anthem. Line: 49ers -6 1/2
Chargers 35, Raiders 23: As an encore to blowing their Oakland farewell, the Raiders also flop in front of their legion of Los Angeles fans.
