Week 6 plays with writeups

[CBBPHENOM]

Saints +3

New Orleans is 5-2 ats when home dogs in their last 7. Saints are number 3 pass offense while Atlanta is number 29 against the pass. If saints can avoid turnovers and unleash Snead and Cooks on Atlanta's suspect secondary, new Orleans will pull out the win at home. Add in Atlanta is banged up receivers and they probably won't keep up. Take the points tonight.

The saints may be 3rd in passing, but they have no running game so the are force to pass and they dont score points, no Jimmy Graham and Marques Colston is inactive tonight on the road. Falcons are the more balanced team with a better defense.

Eagles over 49.5
Texans +1
Bills +3
Colts +9

I'll do write-ups later

Colts +9

I have a feeling Luck returns for this game and exploits a patriots secondary that just isn't very good on paper. Veteran Terall Brown isn't going to play with a foot injury, leaving recently signed Rashaan Melvin forced into action. The patriots haven't faced a great quarterback this year since they faced Pittsburgh's big Ben back on Sept 10th. That game was decided by 7 points. After Pitt, new England has faced tyrod Taylor, Blake bottles , and Brandon weeden. They have killed these teams, but Luck will keep it close with all his weapons, and gores ability to keep Brady on the sideline. Nate solder out might mess things up on the oline not allowing new England to get Blount going. Take the colts in a matchup where the media is pretending revenge will be served up for deflategate, when you know it's just a regular football game for these teams. If anything, it was the patriots who dominated 45-7 last game in gilletete. I think revenge might come from the home team in this one. Take the points.

Eagles over 49.5

At first I wanted to take the under. Both defenses have looked good. Both defenses stop the run. The Giants are allowing 3.5 yds a carry tied for number one in the league. Game plan wise for the eagles, it will be wise to try and beat the giants, who will be dedicating more bodies to the box to stop the run, through the air. Prince Amukamara is out, and the giants don't match up well at linebacker against sproles or Ertz. Look for wheel routes and seem routes to engage mismatches in the secondary. More throwing on the giants side of the ball due to secondary being Eagles weakness. Odb will beat Maxwell a couple times. Vereen will have a big day. I'm taking the over for above reasons. 30-27 eagles.

Texans +1

Loved what I saw out of Hoyer last week. I know they still lost, but that team improved dramatically with him on the field. Jacksonville is likely to have a lot of turnovers with jj watt coming with the way the Jags have blocked. Jags returning some key defenders and are playing first game at home in a while after losing 3 straight road games. Jags are just a little too cute with Yeldon hurting. Take Houston. You can get 1.5 now.

buffalo bills +3

McCoy should return. Ej manuel more then capable to step in and run the offense. This will be the best defense the Bengals have seen since they will face buffalo in buffalo. Bengals coming off ot win against Seattle screams let down. Take the home dog.

 

[Greenbacks]

Like the Bills.....Bengals coming off that huge comeback win is right.

Good luck!
