1 unit: 24-9 +14.80
2 unit: 4-1 +5.80


Overall: 28-10 +20.60



Colts -3 @ Houston +105 (1)

Both teams 3-2 in this battle for 1st place in the AFC South. I'm riding the hot team with 3 straight W's and 4-1 ats. Their two losses were by a combined 10 points. They had 4 to's last game against Balty and 2 in the end zone and still managed to get the W. Thanks to the d the Colts can play with just about anyone. They Colts have forced 9 to's the last 3 games. They blitzed Flacco and I expect they will come after Fitz in this game. The run d has improved tremendously from last year. On offense the Colts are tied with Philly at 31.2 ppg. The Colts lead the league in passing offense averaging 321.8 a game. With targets like Wayne, Hilton, Hopkins, and he has his tight end from college who know each other well. This is a dangerous team. They take Houston seriously, having won 3 straight and 20 out of the last 24 in this series.

Enough about why I like the Colts and some things to like about Houston. Houston D only allowing 17.4 ppg. They have one of the best defensive players in the league. Although he only has two sacks so far, (almost always double teamed) he has a ton of knock downs and hurries. They have a top RB in Foster at 404 yards, 3 td's, and averaging 4.7 per carry. They are home. They are leading the league (12) takeaways. Colts are getting most of the action (public) so far. I play who I like in a game for the most part.

like it: Colts are 10-1 ats last 12 Thursday games.
like it: Houston are 0-4 ats last 4 Thursday games.

There will be no looking ahead to next Sunday in this game. This game is big to both teams. I expect Houston to try and pound the ball on the ground. The Colts run their fair share of running plays. Both teams on short rest so the big linemen more likely to tire. That should give Luck more time as the game rolls on to hit some decent gains. I read somewhere that the Colts offensive guards are nicked up pretty bad.

Only a (1) play for me because of the status of the offensive line for the Colts. I'd hate to see new faces on the line against this Houston D.

Rest of the slate that I just played. Waiting on a couple of games to see if the line moves in m favor.

Baltimore -3 -125 (1)
Miami +3 +105 (1)
Philly -3 +105 (1)
Frisco -3 -125 (1)

good luck my friends

Good luck this week with the exception of the Colts...I'm kidding but I had to throw that out there because we are on opposite sides.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Indianapolis Colts have ruled out both of their usual starting guards for Thursday night’s game in Houston.

Left guard Jack Mewhort and right guard Hugh Thornton have not practiced all week because of injuries. Mewhort will miss his second straight game with an ankle injury. Thornton is out after injuring his back in Sunday’s victory over Baltimore.

Coach Chuck Pagano has not said who the replacements will be, but it’s possible Lance Louis will take Mewhort’s spot and either A.Q. Shipley or Joe Reitz will step in for Thornton.

Indy (3-2) also has ruled out defensive tackle Arthur Jones and cornerback Darius Butler, who both have ankle injuries.

Inside linebacker Jerrell Feeman (hamstring) is listed as probable against the Texans (3-2).

United I appreciate you are posting odds, see a lot of picks with numbers like they are free. Like Philly best of all, tough week seems like one of those weeks where it gets clarified in the Niffle

I try to. If I don't post one it means -110. A lot of people bet with different books and shop around for the best lines. So you can't really go by that because you may not be able to get the same line and price. A lot of people use local books and you can really get some different lines. For example, everyone bets the Colt's at this one establishment and his line right now is Colts -4 1/2 and his Greece is always -120. Another example is I played IU at +7 and posted it right away. Now I see the line has dropped to 3, 3 1/2 at places. So it's more important to me when I place the bet that I post it right away. Those that bet and then post it a day or two later and then that line isn't even out there are the one's that piss me off. But if you are on here a lot or around you will get to know the true bettors and the honest one's. There are some very good people here at the RX. On the other hand there are a lot of jerks who ruin things or chase people off. I'm not a professional handicapper, or a sharp, just a long time gambler who got tired of losing his money when he was in college and even worse early years of marriage, and now will hit 60 this month and making more than ever and having a blast doing it. Oh ya, still married to the same women who gives me her advice on certain games.

Didn't mean to ramble on. Just kind of giving a little friendly advice. Do your homework, bet reasonably, and I hope you last as long as I have.

Baltimore -3 @ TB -125 (1)

Simply going with the better team who lost last week at Indy by 7 in a low scoring game 20-13. I was very impressed with their d while their offense struggled in that game. TB D giving up 31.2 ppg so don't expect Raven offense to struggle in this one. Home hasn't been much of an advantage for TB as they are 4-8-1 ats last 13 home games.

GB @ Miami +3 +105 (1)

GB scary to go against right now after back to back blow out W's. Miami plays well at home where they are 5-2 ats last 7 home games. They should control the game on the ground. They are rushing for 142.3 per game while the Pack are allowing 162.8 per game. GB is 1-4 ats last 5 at Miami. Would be a good shot on the ML but I'm taking the big fg at +money and the homey.

NYG @ Philly -3 +105 (1)

Big division rivalry game between two teams that know each rather well. NY looks like they have got their shit together after a 0-2 start winning 3 straight. Philly at 4-1 and 4-1 ats have beaten some nice teams and are never a easy out with their explosiveness on Offense. NY have struggled in Philly going 3-9 straight up last 12 playing Philly. I just think Manning will have a couple of turnovers that will cost his team dearly in this hostile environment.

Indy -3 +105 (1) W
Baltimore -3 -125 (1)
Miami +3 +105 (1)
Philly -3 +105 (1)
Frisco -3 -125 (1)
2nd: half Houston -120 (1) W





Frisco -3 @ Rams -125 (1)

Frisco at 3-2 and coming off a 22-17 w over KC. Rams at 1-3 and 1-3 ats coming off a 34-28 loss to Philly in a game that wasn't as close as the final score indicates. Rams only w was 19-17 W over TB. Frisco has Denver on Deck and if they don't get this one Sunday they stand a good chance at falling under 500. I just don't see that happening to them. Both offenses scoring around 21 to 22 ppg. The Rams D are giving up almost 30 ppg to Frisco's 21.2 ppg. A real big edge to Frisco in the running game as they are averaging 146 ry per game and Rams D giving up 152.5 per game. Very tough to win ball games when you can't control the line of scrimmage.

good luck
