If there’s anything we learned this week it’s that if you go on a boat on day you’re not supposed to be working you will lose your NFL playoff game.
And how did Bill Belichick spend his time off? By taking a boat to the New England resort island of Nantucket.
Well, there you have it. Bet the house on the Texans this week.
