Let's Talk about The NFL week # 14 ..... Who do you like ... What we Learned the week before ..

[Betallsports]

Since this is late I'll post my thoughts and what we learned with last weeks games, a little later tonight.

I do like Tonight's game ... But Most won't agree on my pick.

I know that that we learned that KC fought the whole time last week vs. The Falcons.
But We all know even though it was the Right call to go for 2, KC should have lost the game.

On the other side, it looked for half the game that the Raiders could be beat. But we all know that they Play a whole 60 minutes or +
and in that 2nd half, The 2016 Oakland Raiders played like they have played this season.

With that being said ....

I take The Oakland Raiders as a Dog tonight. +3.5 for 2 Units

This is Not the same old raiders, and even if KC does win, I feel it will be by 1 or 2 points

I'll be back late tonight to finish up

BOL !

Elliot Harrison went 10-5 on his predictions for Week 13, giving him a record of 126-64-2 thus far this season. How will he fare in Week 14? His picks are below:

Thursday 8:25 PM ET NBC/NFLN 27 24
What a way to kick off Week 14 in the NFL. This is a bad@$% uni matchup, too. Raiders at Chiefs is classic AFL stuff. How about that huge in-game fight that went down in 1970? Now these two are fighting for the AFC West. Derek Carr has had a rough time versus the Chiefs, especially at home earlier this season. In fact, over his career, the franchise QB is 1-4 against Kansas City, with six touchdown and five interceptions. Against the rest of the league? Carr has 71 touchdowns and 25 interceptions. His passer rating versus the Chiefs is 72.0. Against everybody else? 90.7 That's a sizable difference. Oh, almost forgot: K.C. will have Justin Houston, Tamba Hali and Dee Ford all in the same game for just the third time this season. #OAKvsKC

I learned that Zona still has some life, the Jets have completely quit, Stafford may be the best QB in the league right now, Tampa is playing at a very high level with Martin back, Miami's defense is dreadful, and that Paxton Lynch looks like he doesn't belong on the field.

 

[Bad_Cat]

BetAll do you have any info on why the Arizona/Miami line had moved 5 points? I don't believe there are any key injuries on either side.

You had it right. Raiders just couldn't take advantage of the turnovers

 

[Bad_Cat]

BetAll do you have any info on why the Arizona/Miami line had moved 5 points? I don't believe there are any key injuries on either side.

75% chance of rain during the entire game which should favor the run game. Both teams run the ball well but Miami is 29th in the league against the run so Arizona should get plenty of yards on the ground. They also have the better passing attack. The line move of about 5 points is a big move throughout the week and I don't usually back teams with such large line move. This line has me a little confused and maybe you can shed some light on it.

 

[Bad_Cat]

Chicago @ Detroit also looks like a tough pick ATS with Detroit laying over a touchdown against a pretty good Chicago defense. Chicago is quietly ranked #7 overall in defense and the last 4 meetings of these teams (3 in Chicago) have been decided by 6 points or less. Chicago has played poorly on the road this season but this is a division game with both teams knowing each other quite well.

 

[Twisted]

Cat, is this Barkleys 1st road start? They have the potential to get blown out in this one:think2:

 

[Bad_Cat]

Cat, is this Barkleys 1st road start? They have the potential to get blown out in this one:think2:

Yes, I believe it is his first road start. I also anticipate a higher scoring game than their first meeting which should favor the Lions.

 

[Bad_Cat]

Another interesting game is the Wash/Phi game. Wash is playing their 3rd road game in a row but they are 8-2 in their last 10. Washington has also covered their last 5 in this rivalry and have won the last 4 straight up. Philadelphia is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 overall. Must win for the Skins but have been on the road for 3 weeks.

 

[Bad_Cat]

Philly also has looked far from competitive in their last 3 games losing by DD's in all 3.

 

[Bad_Cat]

If Jordan Reed plays for the Skins this week I think they would be the play. If he doesn't I may still play them but he had a huge game last time out against the Eagles.

 

[Bad_Cat]

Philly is also expected to get back Jordan and Ryan Mathews which the return of both could really help Wentz, who has struggled without them.

Move from -2.5 to +2, lame numbers, & 57% on Arizona after Miami was blown away last week & Ariz beat a good Redskins team:

Hey Betall....sorry for posting this in this thread, but we have been trying to reach you via email and posting....we have been posting our NFL system here for 3 seasons now, and we still don't have access to our or others profiles, or PM's. We have reached out a few times over the last couple a years, and no one ever answers us. Not quite sure if its just a glitch you guys can fix or have those functions been disabled for us purposefully?? Your help would be much appreciated.



-SPREAD ANALYTICS

Yeah I would have gotten back to you. But have been busy with a shit load of stuff

 

[Betallsports]

You had it right. Raiders just couldn't take advantage of the turnovers

Yeah they Really had their chances, Multiple Times !!

I also think that one of the Raiders Players must have been screwing one of the Refs Wifes, because that one No Call for PI should have been called

anyway .. That's why they call it Gambling

[h=1]Broncos expect QB Trevor Siemian to play Sunday, barring setback[/h]
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- If Trevor Siemian feels as good Saturday morning as he did for Friday's practice, then Denver Broncos coach Gary Kubiak expects his quarterback to play Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.


"I think it's me watching him come out of practice more than anything," Kubiak said after Friday's practice. "We'll see how he feels -- soreness, that type of thing. But it was good. He did everything we asked him to do [Thursday], did probably a little bit more [Friday] and we'll see if we get there game day. I think the decision will be made [Saturday], if that's what you're asking me."


Siemian suffered a left foot injury on Nov. 29 in the overtime period of the loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, against whom he finished with 368 passing yards and three touchdowns. He did not play in last week's 20-10 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.


Rookie Paxton Lynch was 12-of-24 for 104 yards, without a turnover, in the win over the Jaguars. Lynch took about half of the work with the offense Thursday in case he has to play against the Titans and took a little fewer than half the snaps Friday as the Broncos increased Siemian's workload in the final full practice of the week.
The team will have a walk-through Saturday morning before leaving for the airport. That's when Kubiak said he wants to check in with both Siemian and head trainer Steve Antonopulos to see if there are any issues.


"Just see how he's doing," Kubiak said. "He came in and felt good and, like I said, we pushed him a little bit harder ... a bunch of good signs. We'll see how he's doing [Saturday]."


Siemian was fitted for orthotics to wear in his shoes to protect the foot as he worked on the field this week.

So Yes we Learned last week that the Detroit Lions are looking better and better ... unlike in past season where they start dropping off
and all this without a True running game.

Kind of reminds me of the Green Bay Packers. Only Stafford seems to be adjusting , where Rodgers has just been so so.

Speaking of the Green Bay Packers ... That's Two in a row for them. last week didn't start out looking good. and with all of that Snow, Wind and Cold
I was waiting for the True Houston Texans to show up. ( Yes I have been saying for weeks, they Suck ) and that they were the Worst 6-5 team in the NFL. Now I can say they are the Worst 6-6 team in the NFL.
Guess we will find out how bad they are when they face another 6-6 team, the Colts
may the better 6-6 team show up ... it Should be the Colts
even though the Texans have beaten Indy the last two.

There's Nothing New that we learned about the NE Pats, they just keep on winning and winning and don't see much to stop them.

We Learned that the Denver Broncos Defense is still Alive and ticking again ... Only way they Win that game
Without there starting QB, they are Nothing but a Strong Defense that will give them a chance to Win games... Just Like last season, as they really got no help from manning last year.

I think if you can still get the Broncos as a Dog, hop abroad as they are 8-1-1 with eight outright wins as an underdog under Gary Kubiak.
Plus Siemian just might start this week. ( see report above )

So the SF 49ers are the 2nd worst team in the League ( as posted last week )
Sure looked good for the first 5 minutes of the game. But as we all know... they play 60 minutes
The Chicago Bears showed them how to play in a Full game. Even with a back up QB
Wake up call this week in Motown ..

We Learned last week that the Buffalo Bills can march into the west coast with achip on their shoulder, but walk back out with a Loss.
It's not that they are a Bad team, just not a Great team vs. a very good team.
Just look at some of their wins ( outside of the First NE game )
Now they go against the Steelers ... which seems like a trap of some kind. Maybe

The Steelers did handle the NYG last week, but I think the Giants played pretty shitty. Eli's Picks didn't help anyone, and he gets like that at times.
Gun to Head I would have to go with the Bills in this one. Plus I don't like when teams are getting Plus Money as a Fav.

So the Bengals got a Win last week vs. Philly ... Yeah the eagles Really suck on the road...
Now Cincy faces the winless Browns .. Do the Bengals win Two in a Row ? or do the Browns finally Win one ?
I have a Feeling on this game .. But I Don't Dare share it now

So we learned, and I think Most knew it was coming ... The Dolphins broke their 6 game win streak
The Ravens look good, i was a little shock how Miami fell a part like that and I guess the odds makers feel the same way, as they have AZ 2 point Favorites in Miami ..

I tried last week to be a little fancy with my Contest Picks, going in I liked tampa bay ... and I said to myself ( yes I some times talk to myself ) LOL
I said well Everyone will be on TB, so let me try to Go against the Public ... Well we all know how that turned out face)(*^%
Did the same thing with Buffalo, and that turned out ok.

We Learned that How bad The NYJ looked last week ... But as I said last week , I'm looking for My Jets to Lose Out, for Draft reasons.
Guess I don't have to say any prayers, as they are doing exactly that.
Now I have to Hope they continue this week, even though they face the 2nd Worst team in the league. ( Fingers Croosed )
