So I ended on a positive note for the final week of the nfl regular season went 2-3 with my 3 posted plays-dal+3, Hou?jax O 47 and losing the philly O.
So here are my thoughts for this weekend.....
Philly ended the season on a bad bad note. I had dallas last weekend because after what I saw philly do the week before I thought that they would not blow dallas out but that it may be a close game considering vick was not playing. I did even think that Dal could win outright.
But I thought that somewhere in my mind that philly would come out somewhat strong last weekend against a surging dallas team (to end the year) so that the team could be emotionally prepared for their big game post season. I must say that I have loved philly this whole season and I really want to take them this weekend to beat gb but here are my hesitations:
1. I can't get the image of Vick limping off the field against minny in their horrible turn out that night.
2. I cannot get the image of the blow out against minny out of my head
3. I cannot believe that they did not come out for the final game-if not only for an emotional uplift-look at all the other teams that were not playing for anything last week NE blows out miami (not to say that miami is good), the jets blow out buffalo (not that buffalo is good but they have been hangin in with team and I would have thought they would have hung in with the jets on this meaningless game), steelers blow out cleveland, atlanta blows out carolina (granted they suck), so if all of these teams came out and gave it their all in the end why not philly...the jets came out strong in the last week because they needed that emotionally after their loss against Chicago-now granted chicago is a much better but I truly thought philly would come out last sunday and at least show up-instead they put i a measly 13 points and then lost the game at the last moment-I mean how do you expect them to come and play well on sunday-really?????
Listen I love philly but I have to say that not only am i nervous about the -2.5 but I am also nervous about the mere thought of the ML too.
GB +2.5 (its killing me because I do love philly and they are my team but you've gotta do what you've gotta do and philly did not show up at all in the final 2 weeks
)
Indy NYJ- Indy showed up when they needed too although many of the games came down to the wire but they needed those last game desperately. I am not a peyton manning fan at all (nor do I like Eli and am thrilled the giants are out). Peyton will be peyton even without his supporting cast. With addai back things cold get better. Now lets look at the mostly low scoring jets who started off quite strong and ended (like philly) on a not so positive note. So here you have an experienced playoff qb in peyton vs a 2nd time wild card sanchez....hmmmmm I know that indy does not look as good as they have in the years past but its peyton vs sanchez....in the playoffs....who do you think will win this one. If you are scared to take the colts ATS then at least go with the ML...yes the colts games have come down to the wire lately but they have gotten it done and will continue to do so until after the wild card when the will lose.
Indy ML (just to be safe)
