thoughts on opening week 9 line

I kinda like NYG+9
Over 43.5 NYJ BUFF might be close NYJ has a good defense struggling offense might be a close low scoring battle

Pitt will be my largest wager of the week

They have no linebackers to play against Ray Rice and emerging TE's Ed Dixon and Denny Pitta. I don't know how you can play Pitt in this situation.

LaMarr Woodley who has been playing all world pulled a hammy and will probably be out, James Farrior will misa at least a few more weeks with a bad calf, James Harrison has not been cleared to play with a broken orbital bone and backup Jason Worilds is still out.

That may have been OK against the New England who are more of a finesse attack but against Baltimore who will ram it down your throat until you choke, no healthy linebackers is a real bad thing.

I will take that 3.5 right now based on that information. You probably won't get that line after this hits the papers.

It will be 3 soon enough. The -3.5 is healthy plus money already.

I think this is the week Revis takes one back for a td and i also can see sanchez throwing lasers right into the bills cbs hands. The defense is going to help put some points on the board along with the offense. These are just my thoughts im new to all this so take it how you will.

I thought I heard the announcers on mnf or the pre game say that LaMarr Woodley and James Harrison would be back for the ravens game. I guess I acted to quickly and locked in pitt -3 cause after reading your post i looked more into it and Harrison wrote on twitter that he wont be ready for the game but at least he can practice. And ESPN as of 2 hours ago is saying Woodley is questionable. I hope its just a ploy to throw raves off, but its not looking good.

The way Pit just played, and the way the Ravens have been playing, this line should be closer to 6 than 3. I really like Pit in this one.

Bills! This team is underrated, will the books ever adjust?

Probably the opposite of most of those.

Under 44 bills/nyj
Wash +4
Patriots in a teaser.

Everyone should tease the Saints down. They are going to come out so pissed after their loss to the Rams. And this team goes all out in the dome. I see Saints winning by at least 2 TD's.

rwd201 · 11-01-11, 05:39 PM

I pounded Saints -6@-160
and i mean pounded
