    far as this "improved pass d", i mean sure they have looked better and maybe they are but lets be real about the teams they been facing the last 3 weeks, not exactly teams that strike fear into defenses...i hope he blitzes (a lot) cause that means one of best wrs in the gm is gonna have some one on one on the outside, hou way to balanced and talented offensively for this pats d improved or not, this isnt mia or the jets, you have to respect the run and the run action and have to worry about johnson taking the top off and daniels over the middle..i guess we see how improved they are cause they actually have given up slightly more yrds per reception the last 3, while yes they have done a better job holding completion percentages down lets not forget that been against 2 rookies and a total shitbag jets offense...this a big step up in class from the bills teams that were lighting them up a month ago so i guess we will see but i feel like hou more than capable of making plays deep or controlling gm in the middle of field as pats have to respect the run or they will do what BB does not want and that is control the time of possession and keep the d fresh for when brady gets on field...i smell some scores early, maybe they both play it conservative but that makes no sense for pats and that should force hou hand, not that it needs to be forced cause i think they know they need to jump out to lead or at least make d see that fake early and often so they are hesitant when they run the stretch later on..ive been wrong beofe and im sure i will be again but it just doesnt make sense in any way that this is a grind it out affair when both defenses better against the run and both offenses be better served setting the run up with the pass in this one,,,the fact the the 2 highest scoring 1st half offenses certainly doesnt hurt why i went w 1st half but more importantly i think this a gm where it a race to get a lead and wear opposing d out so then whoever accomplishes this can then come in with the power run gm and start shortening the gm...
    We will see, nice having intelligent conversation with you.

        both very efficient,,id never play a 1st half over at a number like 25.5 if i thought they were gonna drive for 7 min and kick damn fgs.. of coarse now that i say this out loud it will prob be so (lol)..honestly i could see the 4 tds im looking for in 1st half (obviously only need 3 tds and couple fgs, just think we get 28) and it still get under for gm (especially if you can get above 52), im pretty hell bent on 4 tds in 1st half so im gonna work with that number but if either is up 21-7 i think strong possibility of it staying under as clock will start getting juiced..even if it goes to half 14-14 a 27-24 final wouldnt surprise me either..at some point i think one team will grab lead in 2nd half get a stop and go on one of those 7 min clock bleeders that has anyone on over that was jumping up and down all a sudden nervous....be really nice if i got a quick td or 2 and id prob consider live under if it got around the 56 point , not sure that gonna happen as my biggest concern is how long for that 1st td? once that 1st one comes i think we see a few rather quickly, if they start conservative and it doesnt come till late in 1st obviously gonna be tough for me, preferably early as hell but long as i got 7 up and a drive getting close going to 2nd id feel ok....

            Is Jonathan Joseph playing? The secondary is completely different with him in.

              Texans CB Johnathan Joseph (hamstring, groin) told reporters Friday that he will definitely play on Monday Night Football at New England.


              "I'm good to go," he said. Asked if he'll start, Joseph replied "No doubt. No doubt about it." Joseph figures to match up with Brandon Lloyd on the majority of Monday night's snaps, leaving Lloyd with a hazy Week 14 fantasy matchup.

                      yes that the way to win, wait till line goes crazy then lay worst odds possible..maybe make play when line is good, i mean you prob win but you costing yourself juice every time you lose when you wait till the fav gets bet up to make a play...i mean why wernt they the play when you could have got them -3? -3 -110 sounds hell of a lot better than -235 or whatever the hell it is...

                            If you really think it is a coin toss then you should play +220.

                              I will be most likely before game time it just keeps rising and rising so why would I lock it in now?

                              Line shouldn't be more than a FG I feel so will be on the +6 as well

                                Am I overlooking the obvious? Rainy conditions, so the ground game will be a factor. Houston's RB game is better than New England. Both QB's are very good but the rain evens them out a little bit. I took Houston +6 and hoping for the best.

                                  pats home game on monday night. they will be in the game.

                                  houston a solid team, but if either team gets blown out it will be them.

                                  at 5.5 i think pats are still the play. but i am happy to have em at 3!

                                        PAying the worst price possible not way to win no matter your bankroll, I'm not tryin to be a prick here but why wait till line moves against u to decide that pats will win? U didnt think that until the line moved? U use line movement as indicator or something? I ain't saying u crazy for liking pats I'm sayin why didn't u like them when they were a much better price?

                                              Don't see the Texans winning but maybe cover. Rooting hard for the Texans because the Broncos can steal the 2nd seed.

                                                  Brady has 42 TDs on MNF, 4th most all time. Belichick likes to throw the ball in primetime games. Look for Woodhead to be a factor as well. Not sure what the numbers are, but a prop for a Woodhead TD should pay pretty well and is worth a look at +700 or higher. McDaniels love this guy, especially against good defenses, because its harder for LBs to find him once he touches the ball

                                                        No rain or wind to speak of, pretty mild conditions actually. Ear to the ground says Pats come out fired up and well prepared. Coaching match up goes to Pats and with injuries I don't think Texans can make up for it with talent, but line is crap if you want the Pats. Pats small or pass IMO.


                                                        Also on a side note weather, rain, snow, wind, usually seems to give Brady a bigger advantage, but not a factor tonight.

                                                            I have a feeling if the Book opened up with Houston -4, the majority of this forum would be on Houston tonight.
