Philly @ Dallas +3 -120 (2)
Who wants this division? This division race will most likely go down to the last week of the season. I'm taking then home team + the points. Dallas only scoring 19 ppg but Philly not much better at 22.9. Dallas has lost 5 straight games. Their last W was at Philly (20-10). This will be Cassel's 3rd game and I have to think that 3 times will be the charm. Lost by 7 to NYG and 1 to Seattle. This series is almost always a close game. Philadelphia is 1-4 ATS in its last 5 games when playing Dallas. It should be def game but with Philly coming off the bye and Cassel with another week of practice there just might be more points than expected in this one. I had this game at a pick so I'll gladly take the home team that has been so ever close and think they get it done in this Sunday night PT game.
Pack -2 1/2 @ Carolina (2)
You talk about still not getting a whole lot of respect then your talking the Panthers. What do you have to do, they are perfect, they can run the ball, the win the close games, there at home, and yet still dogs. They had the Colts down 23-6 and were dominating the game at home, and after getting down 3 in ot still found the character to come back and win. It's probably not a good bet to go against them as dogs at home. My reasons are really pretty simple. The Pack coming off a really beating by the Bronco's and Rodgers had 77 passing yards in the game. WOW! I made my decision on the Packers when Carolina def started to struggle in the second half (4th) against Luck. Luck who sucks since the injury, really was sucking before the injury, was having his way. Can you imagine Rodgers with the escape mobility that he has to pick apart this Panther team as the game goes on? I have to really believe that Carolina passing D will not hold Rodgers (threat to run) and this Packer team throughout this game.
Oak @ Pitt -4 -115 (2)
It's not that I don't realize that this Oakland team is pretty good this year, it's just that I think Pitt will get off the snide this week and take care of business at home. Oak is 3-20 straight up in its last 23 games on the road. Plus they are going for 3 straight W's. The last time they were playing a game for 3 straight W's they went to Chicago and it was stopped. I have to believe that Pitt will be a tough place for them to play. They are coming off a nice thumping of the Jets where they took out both QB's. That worries my some with Ben's mobility and his recent injury. Of course we all know Bell is done and will be missed big time. But Williams is pretty darn good to, and Ben has had another week to get back in rhythm, and the Pitt D is pretty strong. Pitt at 4-4 and it appears that their only chance of making the playoffs is through the wild card. I think we will see a focused Pitt team taking care of a WC team in the early time slot. My hat will be taken off to the Raiders if they pull this one out.
Rams @ Minny under 39 1/2 (1)
Both teams have nice running games and I like how that eats up clock. Rams scoring 19.3 and giving up 21 ppg. Minny scoring 21 and giving up 21 ppg. Rams are 2-5 O/U and Minny at 1-5-1 O/U. The total has gone UNDER in 4 of St. Louis's last 5 games on the road and has gone UNDER in 6 of Minnesota's last 8 games. May get beat but hoping for fg's instead of td's in this one.
NYG -2 1/2 @ TB (1)
I don't think Manning and his crew will score at ease like last week at New Orleans, but I do think they will score more than TB. I'll take Manning over Winston any time they play. TB are only 5-20 straight up last 25 games. Now I know it's a different era and different team as they are 3-4 this season. I just feel like NYG have to many weapons on offense for TB to keep up with. The Giant D looked horrible last week and are giving up 26 ppg plus they are playing b to b on the road. It's easy to take TB in this game as they are riding some Mo as they took care of Atlanta last week. That is why it's only a (1) for me. Just playing on the team that I really think is better coached with a experienced QB at the helm.
Atlanta @ Frisco under 44 1/2 (1)
Atlanta offense has really slowed down the past couple of games and Frisco really hasn't had a whole lot of offense in most of their games so far this season. They are scoring at 13.6 ppg and their D seems like they are always on D. Both teams giving up their fair share of points which concerns me in this one, but with Kap being benched for Gabbert I think Frisco will still go with conservative play calling and a short passing game. I could be wrong, as I am a lot, but I would be very surprised if Frisco puts up more than 14 points in this game. I just hope Atlanta will not explode once again of offense. I think the weekly grind has settled in and just hope for some pride form the Frisco D to keep this game under the #.
3 team 10 point tease -120 (1)
Cincy -1 I just can't see them losing this PT game to Cleve with Manziel at the helm.
Frisco under 54 1/2 see my thoughts under game play
Dallas +12 1/2 see my thoughts under game play, like the DD spot at home
3 team 10 point tease -120 (1)
Cincy -1 I just can't see them losing this PT game to Cleve with Manziel at the helm.
Pack +7 1/2 I don't usually cross the 0 in teasers, but in this case I really like the Pack and two scores to beat me
Bears +14 Monday PT game with huge spot, Cutler has been pretty good, and they will miss Forte, but pass more and score on SD poor D
Good luck everyone, as always, info, comments, always welcome in my thread, bet reasonable
