Am I the only liking over 48 Tennessee @ Houston???

texhooper · 11-23-09, 12:31 AM

i agree, also i believe titans will cover. but the over i feel is in the bag. as i said in an earlier thread, you're on quite a streak with your "am i the only" threads, so let's keep that alive!

over seems too easy

Are you the only one who keeps asking if he's the only one?

let a playa play. the dude's been doing well.

PAPSMEAR · 11-23-09, 05:39 AM

no not the only one. count me in . over and tenn

BrownTown · 11-23-09, 07:41 AM

Think about this when looking at a side ... while I agree with the over, it makes very little sense to think the over hits as well as Tenn. If they shut down the Houston offense, Tenn will run the ball (which they will do regardless). So, if you you like the over, I personally think you are also betting on Houston putting up some points in this one.

Other thing to consider is ... yes Tenn has been a surprise the past 3 games after that horrible start. They beat SF, Jacksonville and Buffalo. This after NE and Indy beat Tenn by a combined 70 - 9. I'm not saying Houston has an offense that is in the same room with Indy or NE, but they are not that far off and the Houston offense will pose the biggest threat to a Tenn secondary that is shaky at best.

I see this ending with a 31-23 Houston win.

very good post browntown

2daBank · 11-23-09, 09:23 AM

the problem with this number to me is simple...every time these to play(for most part) seems as if it 30-30 or 20-20 (range) how the hell to determine which way it gets played 2nite is hard for me to get a handle on...i tend to agree w/browntown if you like ten its hard to also like the over cause if there secondary cant hold up i dont really like there chances in a shootout..if there d has improved or product of playing weak offensive teams the last 3 weeks is yet 2 be determined...2nite will tell and if they can keep hou passing gm in check(of coarse they gonna get some yrds) but not giving up the big play and limiting them in the red zone i believe vy and co. can control clock and have shot at winning gm...just not sold on the d yet..still going over this 1 but like browntown said above if ten the play gotta think so is the under..hou the play it goes over

thebertshow · 11-23-09, 10:07 AM

I like the under

koby25 · 11-23-09, 10:09 AM

Under

2daBank · 11-23-09, 10:31 AM

^^^ you last 2 that said you like the under do you also like ten +4? as if this gm stays under either ten dominates or its very close at the end...just wanted to get your thoughts

Pin Fish · 11-23-09, 12:21 PM

OVER

koby25 · 11-23-09, 12:54 PM

I think Titans lose buy a field goal 23-20

stefano4 · 11-23-09, 01:24 PM

I Like the over!!! I think houston wins 34-17

themilkman1311 · 11-23-09, 01:52 PM

over is where it's at this game

NickMakesPicks · 11-23-09, 05:25 PM

I teased the over down to 42.5 just to be sure and if I hit this game my 6 team teaser is complete and a $$$$ winner....but over is the play for sure. For those who dont know...I wouldn't ever suggest putting action 2 ways on one game because it can work against you. Like someone said earlier....if you take the over and the Titans....you still are wanting Houston to put up points which can screw you in the end. You are much better off putting action on 2 seperate games to avoid the stress!

Who said that again?!?!?!!?

GatorFan · 11-23-09, 07:02 PM

Let the firework begin.............. go OVER goooooooooo

Pick'nParlays · 11-23-09, 07:25 PM

im gonna go with a push. thats right folks. the total tonight will land right at 48. deal with it.

MidgetTossers · 11-23-09, 07:30 PM

takin the under tonight fellas...seems too easy to go over

Dexter · 11-23-09, 07:42 PM

i also expected this game to get over the total but this total has dropped to 48 which scares me considering its a monday night game (which people typically take the over)...just the titans for me.

uva3021 · 11-23-09, 07:47 PM

like the over, but an NFL over at 48 too easy? damn

pjmarley1 · 11-23-09, 08:29 PM

houston -3.5 and under 48. tennessee will not be scoring much, mark my words

pokerpro44 · 11-23-09, 08:33 PM

i teased tenn with over

2daBank · 11-23-09, 08:39 PM

i like the under in this gm and i know it seems like the wrong side but lets face it ten doesnt have tons of weaons 2 stop 2 is bout it and w bye week hou should be able 2 do a respectable job of that at least...on other side we all know sayin ten has had issues stoppin the pass a understatement but fisher a good coach and there secondary to talented to not get better...bottom line is both teams can move ball so clock should run and i look for big plays 2 be limited and red zone dfence t be key..und48 gl

Limey · 11-23-09, 11:46 PM

Good call 2da. I had the under too, it nudged me into positive for week 11 after a torrid Sunday.

Agreed. I don't really like the text-speak but 2da made a good argument that bore a strong resemblance to how the game panned out.

2daBank · 11-23-09, 11:59 PM

thnx guys.. i dont bet things i cant give reasons 4 and yea it helped my week break even which isnt bad after a 1-5 start on the early gms

bounced back strong to end 5-5 with enough on 2nite to cover juice and missed parley..good way to go into next week 4sure
