Houston +10 Can't trust this team but this number is too big. If Houston has to play on Christmas....they will play angry.
Tenn +7 Everyone saw the Rams destroy Seattle and now think they are invincible. It was just one game. Tenn may not be great but this line is off. They are also back to back road for Rams. This is my best bet
Jets +7 We saw what the Chargers really are. Jets are better than people thought....especially at home
Cincinnati +5 Lions shouldn't be favored this much against anyone on the road. Two reall bad games made this line 3-5points higher than it should be

I will probably play all four. Not sure how much though

I agree with all for the most part except for Tennessee. I already wagered and posted the Rams -6 1/2.

Yes. Not sure how you are confused it has teams name and number next to it
I learned the hard lesson yesterday to stay away from shit teams (Cin) who have thrown in the towel for the season. Not to mention they have 2 somewhat healthy line backers remaining on their roster. No thanks.

Yeah....I understand that. At the same time it doesn't have to be a big bet. Also.....Minnesota and Detroit are very different teams. And home and away also. I don't exactly like betting on Cinci or Houston

IMO, the Lions are a great play on the ML......will have them in several parlays.

Steelers ML as well, don't see them losing SU, & being Xmas day, & after losing the way they did vs Pats, we may see a Pitt 38-10 win.

Pitt's best offensive player is out and they don't blow teams out. Pitt is a average team based on their record (11-3) and their SOS (23rd) has something to do with winning 11 out of 14 games. Their winning margin on the road is 6ppg if you compare them to the league average. No way I would ever lay 10 with Pitt or bet the ML versus Houston. That would be dumb to bet. It will probably be about -500, no thanks.

Pitt ML in a parlay or tease Pitt down to Pk in a 10 point teaser.

Man, I'd stay clear of the Bungles. IMO, Marvin Lewis finally gets the hook he's deserved for years. Lions still have a heartbeat, Bungles are long buried. Playing MinnyMouse yesterday took me all of one nanosecond to decide. I doubt the luck changes next game against the NFC Norse.

My friend texted me yesterday & was so happy Marvin is leaving, he was baffled why he had a job for 17 years w/o a playoff win.

LOL, I'm a devout "First Take" watcher, and to listen to Stephen A. Smith (who I actually like for a lot of reasons not related to his sports broadcasting) lament about how Lewis should have been gone a decade ago is hilarious. He rants and raves about Lewis first, Garrett second, LOL.

You would like Stephen A, he's the biggest idiot on TV

Teams with coaches on the hot seat or on the way out went 0-4 ATS, Chicago, Cincy, Houston, and Cleveland. Shit teams, late in the year, coach is going out, and BEST if they are on the road. Ouch my leg hurts I am coming out of the game, fuck this!

2 games had both coaches Den-Indy, AZ-Wash, so no way to look at it.

Yes, some are debatable as to whether or not the coaches I cite are really in deep ca ca or even a goner.

Tonight, is TB coach on the hot seat, or a goner, or looks solid to stay? Opinions?

Its his second year after a very good 1st year.

Lots of turmoil with the QB situation, injuries, suspensions, etc...

I don't see him as a coach on the hot seat right now, he's been a very solid coach his entire career.

Aside from a brief run at Boise, Koetter has sucked as a HC in his other stops. Winston has regressed under him. He gone at end of year.

His only other HC job was at Ariz St. He wasn't bad at all competing against the Carroll USC Teams amongst others in that conference at the time. Boise St was his only other HC Job and he did very well there.

Not saying he's awesome but he isn't getting canned after 2 years, especially considering the job he did last year. He dealt with a lot of crap this year that wasn't really on him

He was 9-7 with Winston, this year he's been hurt and made stupid decisions. That's not on the HC.

I heard he was on the bubble despite a short tenure, but not sure it is solid, a lot of stuff going on.
SOME are definitely on the way out, I do not categorize him but maybe he is... when the players sense it they sometimes fall to pieces at least for a game or two.
I took Falcons but this was just a very small part of my rationale, hoping for a collapse, but they are at home and less likely to crumble.
