NFL 2010-2011 Overall 15-13-1 +0.45 units (53.57%)
NFL 2010-2011 2 Unit Plays 4-3 -0.80 units (57.14%)

Losing week again. Started out tough, but got a lot better. The Steelers game sucked but at least they won. I should have basically knew it was a trap play. The Chargers are what they thought they were. They had a chance to turn that game around and blew it. The Packers made a ton of mistakes but still won, they might be worth fading because it seems like Aaron Rodgers and his WR's just aren't connecting. The Giants was a generally easy play.

Leans for Week Eight

Jets -6
Bengals -1
Steelers pick
Colts -5.5

No picks locked in and I do alot of 180's on these, any insight appreciated.

49ers pick -120 to win 1 unit

I know I'm gonna probably regret this because I hate Troy Smith but the 49ers are just the better team. Bronco's have non-exist running game. Orton has no WR's to throw too. It's pretty clear after last week against the Raiders they dont have a very good defense. 49ers could be 4-3 right now if a few things have gone there way. Both teams are poorly coached, but the 49ers just seems to have more talent right now...

They are the better team, but they have the worst coach in football. I like denver here, coming off an embarrasment last week.

Good health ttrace

Seattle +1 to win 1 unit

Gut feeling really, I say the Raiders are fade worthy after putting up 59 points. Seattle not a good road team, but Raiders can be bad at home and on the road.

Jason Campbell is fade worthy.

Bengals pick -120 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes

To be honest I just have a feeling...just a strong gut feeling (again). Thats a shitty explanation but thats the best I can give. I know every1 will disagree

Colts -5.5 to win 1 unit @ 5dimes

****. Another losing week for me. Anyway, lets hope I can just lose juice on the week with this play. Hard to not play Peyton Manning at home, in primetime. Peyton threw for 400 + yards and 57 times in the last game. Schaub threw for just over 100 and Arian Foster had 250 yards. This isn't gonna happen again, Foster has now officially come back to Earth. The #1 thing is that Peyton has that kind of game against the Texans routinely. The Texans have yet to hold anyone under 24 points this season. The last 2, they give up 34 and 35 points. They are on a downward trend and the colts and Peyton are coming off a bye.
