deskgameEditor’s note: CEASE was a co-plaintiff in a court action seeking an injunction to suspend the casino loophole, which was denied in September. Currently, casinos may devote up to 25% of their gambling space for smokers. Bills calling for a total ban or further restrictions are pending in the Legislature.
deskgameThis is a must-win game for the Seattle Seahawks. Playing away from home doesn’t hurt its offense, as they average 27 points per game on the road. The Chicago Bears' defense can be leaky; they struggle to defend the rush, and its defense, allowing 21 points per game at Soldier Field, could be in for a long night.
deskgameMahomes has passed for 260+ yards in each of his last three games. He has passed for 15 TDs in seven career starts against the Bills. Mahomes will get JuJu Smith-Schuster back from a hamstring injury this week to pair with new top WR DeAndre Hopkins.
deskgameScoring has been a struggle for the Sooners. I expect that to continue without QB Jackson Arnold, TE Bauer Sharp, WR J.J. Hester, RB Jovantae Barnes and others. Arnold was the starter for most of the season. Backup QB Michael Hawkins Jr. will be under center against Navy.
