AJ Hoffman: "The records of the Vegas favorites in Week 14: 12-1 straight up, with a +14 average straight up margin, against the spread 11-2, nearly a 7-point ATS margin."
RJ Bell: "Man, it seemed easy this week, because let's be candid, a lot of these games weren't even close, it was a walkover almost."
