1-0
here are the rest of my contest picks - the goal is 51 points which is an avg of 3 points per week, should be in the money!
1. Philly -10.5 Jacksonville closed out the season strong last year covering the spread but their defense was #26 in the league despite having a great defensive coach. The Run Defense was 29[SUP]th[/SUP] giving up on average 13o yards per game. Philly was the number two offense in yards gained last year #5 in Rushing attempts . This game has the highest spread and one of the highest totals I expect the Eagles to run well and score points enough to win by more than two scores against an improving Jaquar team. Teams at -10 are 13-6 at home the past 3 seasons.
2.St Louis -3.5 This is a play on St Louis’s defense & the NFC west vs the league. My Buddy is a huge Vikings fan he says that Minny defence will be better this year, they better be there were last in 2013 in scoring d. Last year when Bradford when out the Rams went 5-2. Both the public and sharps are backing the Vikes in this game but when less than 40% of the bets were on the Fav last season the fav went 20-9….going with the old adage the public can’t pick a dog and are over reacting to Same Bradford being out. Shaun hill will manage a victory for the Rams.
3. San Fran -4.5 –Another NFC west representing in big D. Dallas Defence was ranked 26[SUP]th[/SUP] last year they are expected to be worse this year. The 49ers were the third ranked Defense last year and the offense seemed to gel the last 2 games of the pre-season.
4. Atlanta +3 – Everyone lose the Saints but people forget how good the Falcons were at home prior to last year. The saints may come away with a victory but I’ll take Matty ice and his 4[SUP]th[/SUP] quarter comebacks plus the points against this super bowl contender. Trend of the week small divisional dogs are on 16-0 run ATS if they have dropped their last two games vs their Opp.
GL enjoy the games
