1. Who will have more – Michael Crabtree receiving yards or Celtics points in Feb. 3 game vs. Clippers?

Odds – Celtics -5.5 (-110); Crabtree -110

THE PICK – Even with the Celtics in the process of figuring out how life with PG Rajon Rondo is going to shake down, we like Boston here. Whoever gets Rondo’s minutes (Leandro Barbosa, Courtney Lee, Jadson Terry) will be more offensive minded.

Plus, the Clippers will play at a quick pace to tire out the Celtics, which means Boston probably won’t walk the ball up the court. Baltimore has had a few weeks to game plan for San Francisco’s offense, and the Ravens will move heaven and earth to shut down the Niners’ top deep threat. CELTICS.

2. Which will be higher – the total number of sacks in the game or Alex Ovechkin’s shots on goal in Feb. 3 game vs. Penguins?

Odds – Sacks -1/2 EVEN; Ovechkin -120

THE PICK – Ovechkin should be able to do some damage against a Penguins team that has been slow out of the gate and has given up at least four goals in three of its last four games. Ovechkin should put some rubber on net. Baltimore and San Francisco have no doubt spent the last few weeks preaching about avoiding negative plays.

Colin Kaepernick has the quickness to avoid being sacked. OVECHKIN.

3. Will the 49ers have a rushing touchdown?

Odds – Yes -300; No +250

THE PICK – In all the hoopla about Colin Kaepernick, Frank Gore has melted into the background. The guy can flat-out run the ball. And he’s going to get it between 20 and 25 times on Sunday. And if/when the 49ers get the ball inside the 10, Gore is going to get the ball. [soliloquy id=”82219″]

And he’s probably going to score. And if he doesn’t, Kaepernick will score on a bootleg. YES, even with the bad payoff.

4. Will Alex Smith take a snap from center?

Odds – Yes +500, No -700

THE PICK – One of three things would have to happen for the yes to cash here: 1. Jim Harbaugh gets sentimental and gets Smith on the field in a SB blowout before the kid walks away after the season. 2. Kaepernick gets hurt. 3. A trick play.

At the 5/1 payoff it might be worth a flier, especially with Ray Lewis not concerned about getting suspended for a late hit on Kaepernick. YES

5. Who will have more – Frank Gore receiving yards or Blake Griffin points vs. the Celtics?

Odds – PK -110

THE PICK – Jump on Griffin as soon as you can. BK will be going up against a Celtics team that is in reorganization/panic mode, and he’s averaged better than 23 points a game over his last five. Gore averages 14 yards a game receiving, and wasn’t targeted a single time in the NFC Championship game against Atlanta.

Ravens LBs like to snuff everything short over the middle to establish their toughness. GRIFFIN
