    NFL week 14 - Contrarian Angles
    NFL week 14- Contrarian Angles
    I'd lay out the parameters as such:
    1) Limit of one pick per week for a given poster.
    2) Totals are fair game.
    3) Quote a current price (vs -110 line or better). Can't just say "Team A".
    4) List a reason WHY you are Fading a team...and why you LIKE the team you're backing. Have to state why you think the play is counter-intuitive and therefore likely to represent value.
    5) Goal of the thread is to identify sides which the public likes. If the public is too high on said side, then contrarian side should have line value.

    That's how I'd describe it. In addition to fading a certain team, the side we're backing often feels like it's a tough bet to make.

        jets +9.5

        Fading the Bills they are in 2nd place in the AFC but not playing up to expectations

        Jets have been one of the biggest surprises this year. Maybe the biggest for me! Thats a lot of points to give a team that has been playing good, they should have beat Minny last week.

        Cant say enough about how well the back up QB has been playing.

        The defense is playing good with Q. Williams becoming one of the best young D-lineman in the NFL I think he has 9.5 sacks this year

        Looking at the line right now on Bet-on-line +9,5..-110

              It is I'm crazy!! I need a long break! I'm on 5 week losing streak that's going to drive me crazier! So many games looked good until the last play or at least late 4th quarter. I'm not the only one I know but seems like lady luck has left town!

                Thought that's what you meant. I hear you, these games are very tough.

                Can't take it too seriously. Good luck on the Jets, Jack. Take it ez.

                    chargers +3 and +3.5 depending on what you can get for -120 or +105

                    i think their offense will keep this competitive at home against a dolphins team that came down to earth last week against an awesome 49ers defense

                          Agenda, good luck on the Ravens. I like your play:

                          1) Granted, the contrarian angle = the backup QB. Catching the Ravens as Dog b/c of the QB situation.

                          2) I mentioned the acquisition of LB Roquan Smith. Roquan has played four games w/ Balt.
                          ...Since Roquan left CHI, Bear defense looks barren. No Bear wins, little resistance.
                          ...Some BALT stats since Roquan arrived:
                          *Avg Net First Downs = +7.5
                          *DEF First Downs allowed (per game) = 14.0
                          *DEF yards per game allowed = 263.0
                          *DEF Rush yards allowed per game = 52.0

                          3) With the short line, I'll be watching how much impact Tucker has on this game. Has to help having the best kicker in the game. Tucker's stat are pretty ridiculous:
                          *He's around 98% on FG up to 40 yards.
                          *He's about 90% on FG 40 to 49 yards.
                          *You really have extend him beyond 50 to see any FG misses.

                          I think your pts can play b/c of the Raven DEF and Tucker. The Ravens are only a few late drives from having a very good record. Good Luck.

                              Give me the Tennessee Titans -3.5

                              Is it going to be a easy slam dunk win
                              They win by double digits

                                              Trying, Jack. I might actually not have a pick for week 14.

                                              Following your note re: Discretion. Lines are so tight this week. I waited too long on a couple games.

                                                  Some good picks on the early games. Only the Titans come up short.

                                                  Thanks. And Good Luck.

                                                      Good one, Jack. Jets DEF had another good showing.

                                                      Yes, I mentioned the Titans in other thread. They appeared to have control of the division. Jags put themselves in position to flip one game in next three weeks and then play for Division Home vs TENN in wk 18.

                                                        Tenn needs to get better on Defense but if the O-line dont improve it want matter!

                                                            Great week guys. Seems like turnovers made the Tennessee game spiral out of control. they're definitely trending in the wrong direction. They're usually very solid at home against mediocre teams
