I like this one. We'll see what happens. Lots of people I respect are on Houston + 7. I thought about buying my bet back and eating the vig, but just decided to let it ride.
      I hope you cash as I have no interest however 2 major things against you. Line crosses 3 or 7 is the last thing the books want. Possible to lose both sides or lose one and tie. The other is the so-called trap. I don't really like the term itself but just think it's very tough in this league to bring it 3 weeks in a row. Carolina was an example at Mia coming off SF and NE and now NE coming off 2 primetime games. Just a spot I like to avoid especially giving a touchdown. BOL though

        Not looking good now as NE's defense couldn't stop me from running the ball. Oh well. I'm not surprised at all. Just a small bet. Should have listened to everyone around here.

          NE record in December since 2001 45-6. Just doesn't even seem remotely possible.

            Agreed NE D is horrible. As bad as the run D is the passing D isn't much better. They are starting 5 rookies but...

                Great plays bank!!!!!

                Was not on the jets with you as i really dont like to choose worse of two poor teams

                But really unlucky with the bills... Such a bad ball protection! Next training session, all of them big hot stones, no gloves, to run around grabbing them like their life depends on it! I was on bills in a parlay at +3.5 so i managed to get the best of the game, but was pissed at bills anyways!

                All the best and keep up the great work!!!!

                  not exactly a great week but not bad either as always good to be up..jets were terrible, i mean if ya gonna lose fine but what rex fat ass was thinking coming out throwing i have not a clue? bills were a disappointment as they had that gm about 4 times before giving it away twice, throw in the joke pi that gave atl the tying score and guess it just wasnt meant to be. bengals did their job and the teasers both hit with ease..split totals on sunday so they were 3-1 with the 2 we played on thu so not bad.. jets is the regrettable play as clearly i was off there, of coarse if you told me they were gonna pick a week vs a shit run defense not to play ground and pound i prob would have thought better of it..

                  far as monday night goes i think seachickens win but the line is seriously out of control..like the over as well but again paying for not playing it earlier in the week as it a bit on he high side as this the 1st chance ive had to look all day...so here what im gonna do..

                  sea-3 1st half -130 (1x)..so damn juiced keeping it just 1 unit but i think sea will come out early and take it to these soft ass saints..that all really, strong run gm, better defense, in a place wilson has never lost... maybe if aints come out ahead i will revisit a possible 2nd half wager.

                        I'm having a hard time finding anything I like in this game in terms of the side. The one thing about it that really stands out to me is that Sean Payton is not going to let Marshawn Lynch be the one that beats them again. That big TD run was a defining play in Lynch's career & in Seattle's revival during the Pete Carroll era, and also iced a humiliating playoff loss as a huge favourite.

                        So New Orleans stacks the box against him. That opens up the play action passing a bit, but Seattle is also likely going to stick with trying to establish the run early. Brees is going to mix it up more, but I'm not sure that NO will be able to get big chunks until they prove they can run the ball effectively, and as good as Sproles/Ingram have been at times, that NO offensive line is weighted a lot more towards pass protection than run blocking.

                        I can see this turning into a ball control game if the defenses have early success. I'm rolling with the Under 49, as being a high total that's been pushed up to an unreasonable point for this matchup.

                                  I'm a terrible record keeper. I honestly couldn't say what the record is, think there only been 4 losing weeks so decent I guess..

                                  Gonna actually keep my college hoops thread updated and will try and do that more going forward as I get asked a lot, honestly thought the discussion was more important as I certainly don't think anyone should blindly tail me or anyone really...

                                          well after a tailor made easy ass week for teasers i guess books didnt want that again cause i cant find anything i love to pair with ravens who make for a great teaser leg. their run d is rock solid and that all minny has, if i trusted balty offense id just lay the points but i dont so still trying to find a team to tease with ravens-1.5? zona maybe ok but prefer my favs in teasers to be -7 to -8.5 which they not.. det+8.5? dont trust these assholes at all but doubt philly beats them by more than a score.. like i said not a lot of great choices but ravens teased is too good to pass up, just gotta find another team im as confident in..

                                            Is Houston going to lose against Jacksonville again?

                                            Will they ever win a game again?

                                              certainly possible.. jags offense has been serious trash at home tho for whatever reason..i need mjd to have a strong showing to help me get past the fantasy wild card round so that prob be more than enough "action" for me on this gm..

                                                Know its early in the week...KC and HOU only road favs on the week...both games prolly no plays...although its HOU or nothing and Skins or nothing...

                                                That said what road dogs bark this week? Like Indy a lot although its tough after how poor they look recently...maybe Minny but game looks alot like Minny v Seattle and we saw how that went...Maybe detroit...eagles have to drop one before cowboys game...

                                                I usually pick mostly dogs but hard to think that SF PIT NO DEN NE AZ could lose SU next week...gotta be some value parlaying with some of those MLs yeah? Never played a teaser myself but see you do alright on them...gotta be value teasing DEN AZ PIT SF...shouldn't tease through 0 but tell me how PIT doesn't at least push +3 and SF can't cover +4.5...hell even NE what's the chance of 2 double digit dogs in a row giving brady a tough time...Just some early thoughts...

                                                  never too early to start discussing, hell i think i generally do better the weeks i have time to bet early as it not real often numbers move the way id prefer..

                                                  i actually think kc or nothing despite how "square" it looks, good chance i pass but skins the perfect team for kc to get back on track against, anyone playing the skins is simply trying to be "sharp", im all for being sharp but i have to have justifiable reasons to back teams and i simply cant find any with skins. honestly i kinda like kc but not thrilled about the juice my books charging on -3.. id lean other way in jax gm and say them or nothing but im def not touching that gm..

                                                  far as the teasers there a reason i believe i do well with them and it starts with sticking to a fairly strict set of guidelines which would never allow me to tease those short favs across 0..i like sf to win but imo you either play them -2.5 or tease sea to +8.5, if sf does lose not sure why they cant lose by 7? same with pit except i dont like them nearly as much just same concept i believe you either tease phins over a td or dont tease that gm. just the way it is for me as besides the rare total im almost religious about my my teasers being of the wong variety..

                                                  pats and ne are kinda fringe, i dont hate the idea of teasing when you can get thru the 10 and 7 but at same time i really dislike my favs having to cover more than a fg, i considered them both but id prefer a fav under a fg or a dog over a td to go with ravens who i think are a slam dunk teased.. zona would be the 1 option you brought up i lean to the most but again i prefer the favs i tease down to be full td favs as i believe the odds of a 7-8.5 home fav losing are far less great than a home fav lined under a td..

                                                    i think balty blast minny,,dont trust their offense a lot to lay 7 but think them or nothing.. most likely is i tease ravens down if i can find a solid partner which isnt as easy this week..

                                                    no way am i touching indy vs any decent team as like i been saying since he went down, without wayne this isnt even a decent team imo... nothing worse than that -5.5 line for a fav tho and i still dont trust dalton, the fact they only scored 17 vs sd is troublesome.gm is almost certainly a pass for me..

                                                    det/philly i think over is the only option id consider but need to check the weather....still dont trust det on the road and still not a huge buyer in philly as even in their good games that team wears down at the end of every gm with kelly talking about time of possession being "most overrated stat in football" , really asshole? 1 game comes to mind where you absolutely lost cause you are incapable of managing the clock (sd) then just the last 2 weeks deadskins almost came back and cards really should have if it wasnt for a terrible call to give the ball back on a foles int and palmer being a bum.. i guess id prob lean det now that im looking at it cause even if they do get down i do trust stafford to complete the comeback vs a worn down defense in the 4th..det might actually be the team to tease balty with as i dont think philly beating them by more than a td with the way everyone comes back on them, biggest issue there is i prefer low scoring gms for dogs i tease as i think that makes the pointws more valuable, still det looks like a pretty good option..
