PFT's Week 17 2023 NFL Picks, Florio vs. Simms

For the first time in a long time (and definitely longer than I can remember), Simms and I are in complete agreement about the 16 game total.

With our regular competition just two weeks away from the end of the regular season, there is no overall disagreement this week.

Zero. In 16 games. We disagree on some picks against the spread, but he already beats me there by seven. Clearly, we're both 148-92.

Scroll away for all 16 tips.

Jets at Browns (-7.5)

This is like a bowl game for the Jets. It's her last breath. Final act. Will this be enough to upend the surging Browns? Probably not.

Florio: Browns, 20-10.

Simms: Browns, 15-10.

Lions at Cowboys (-6)

After two defeats in a row, the Cowboys have to quickly re-establish themselves.

Florio: Texans, 24-21.

Simms: Texans, 20-17.
