dallas general? dunno Falcons was my fave early #

Enogsiwon · 10-20-09, 11:28 AM

Falcons will struggle this week...

tblues2005 · 10-20-09, 11:30 AM

I really like the Eagles this week. They sure want to get back I am sure. It sure was an embarrassing loss to the Raiders last week for them.

daneblazer · 10-20-09, 11:31 AM

Cowboys, Raiders, probably Dolphins. Pittsburgh if Winfield is out.

Sportsgirl · 10-20-09, 11:31 AM

Cards +7 @ NY
Saints -6 @ Miami

firedawg · 10-20-09, 11:32 AM

dallas is not even an average team. they have no right being favored over the falcons. +4 is a gift, but im on the ml

Bet Shooter · 10-20-09, 11:32 AM

Hey Topper long time. Hope things are well. Early Indy I have seen. Lotta chalk but they are hitting it

topgame85 · 10-20-09, 11:43 AM

BS been forever man hope you are making some $ and enjoying life pal

Bet Shooter · 10-20-09, 12:04 PM

Life has been great. Started another business. No time for SBR in the last year, but its up and running smoothly now. Back with my SBR family again.

Smurf71 · 10-20-09, 12:05 PM

Here are the games to tease

NO-6
INDY-7
NE-7
ATL +11
ATL-DALLAS o40
OAKLAND NYJ under 42

I do think also that NO-Miami game will go over

darrell74 · 10-20-09, 12:14 PM

Minnesota +4

Steelers 0-7 ats going back to the super bowl.
Fade Pittsburgh untill they cover.

Also, Vikes are undefeated, strong on both sides of the ball.
Vikes should be 4point favs, if anything.
Minne is healthy, also.
Line perplexes me.

jellobiafra · 10-20-09, 12:16 PM

Houston -3 and ATL +4. Dallas coming off a bye at home though. I like HOU more.

lakerboy · 10-20-09, 12:42 PM

I like sf.after the blowout mike will have them ready. Houston isn't a good fav. Sf will play well

About the Eagles... I strongly recommend that you look at the highlights of their last game against the Raiders before taking this bet. The Eagles offensive line was already stretched thin. Then they lost Jason Peters early in the game, and their line just fell apart. I counted the number of seconds that it took the Raiders to sack McNabb. On 2 occasions, I did not get to "one". On 2 other occasions, it took longer, because McNabb was running backward.

At least this time, the Eagles have a week to prepare for this disaster, but Jason Peters is questionable for the next game. I know that Washington is a bad team, but I don't think that Albert Haynesworth will be any easier to handle than Richard Seymour. If Peters doesn't return soon, the Eagles will be at a tipping point, much like Seattle was last year when they lost all of their wide receivers.

It's early, but gut feelings:

Bears, Steelers, 49ers, Giants

uanl · 10-20-09, 03:06 PM

i posted this on a different thread...just warning you guys on the vikings..i dont know why everyone is jumping all over them..the fact is that they really haven't been strong on both sides of the ball..good offense, but their defense is suspect, especially the secondary..if Flacco had a good game against them, i cant imagine what the steelers are capable of with big ben coming off a 400 yard passing game (sure it was against the browns, but 400 is still alot)

i personally love the falcons +4 and I am a cowboys fan...i would even take the falcons ml..the cowboys just havent been good at all..their secondary is atrocious and i dont think they fixed it in a week...the falcons are good enough to get a potential first round playoff bye week..so i dont think they can afford to take games lightly

i also like the colts and the patriots to cover the spread as big faves...

No, Steelers covered in that Sunday Night game vs. the Chargers this year.

Well, they can't make Steelers dogs at home.

Pittsburgh needs game more as they are tied for division lead, and they should be focused entering their bye. Vikes have Favre's return to Green Bay next week, so it would be very easy to look past this non-conference game.

JGILL50 · 10-20-09, 03:20 PM

yes they did LT is right

Mr Handicapable · 10-20-09, 03:30 PM

Indy -13...no need to tease this one! The Colts could possibly sleepwalk thru some of this one and still cover 2 TDs! They've currently won 14 straight regular season games in a row so they don't take games off! Combine that with the fact that they don't run the ball that well so Manning has to keep passing. The D is getting healthy too....I really expected 17.5 or more in this one since the Rams have lost 4 of their 6 losses by 19 or more!

Muddy · 10-20-09, 03:37 PM

I think SF begins to tumble from now on

the shadow · 10-20-09, 04:10 PM

Play every dog on the board. Books win 2 weeks in a row!!

daneblazer · 10-20-09, 05:26 PM

As I said in another thread, watch Winfield's injury this week. If he can't play, the Vikings will have to reshuffle their whole secondary. He's as important as anyone on that defense including Jared Allen. Baltimore made their run when Winfield was knocked out of the game.

iLogan · 10-20-09, 05:30 PM

All in with Atlanta +4 and Eagles giving up 7

ZBOIZ · 10-20-09, 05:32 PM

I like the Giants to bounce back this week

pavyracer · 10-20-09, 05:45 PM

I think the Falcons line is a joke. You basically get a playoff team at +4 playing a non-playoff team. Bet accordingly.

GOGOBIRD · 10-20-09, 07:02 PM

Expecting Dallas to really turn the tide. Statement game for them this week.

There is really no merit behind that statement or evidence to back it up.

The same argument was commonly made for San Diego against Denver and look what happened. Every game is a "MUST WIN" game.

why not tease the packers to win against the browns...?

thebertshow · 10-20-09, 10:00 PM

I like the Vikings plus 4

Serbone · 10-20-09, 10:08 PM

Early leans:

SD -4
Indy -13.5 BIG
Cleve + 7 BIG
Pitt - 4
NE - 14
Mia + 6 BIG

I appreciate those who post final picks on Monday... but I prefer to wait for info later in the week, injuries, weather, info on team internal issues, coaches, etc...

I'm with you on this one. Last year when Arizona travelled to New York it ended badly for the Cards (Jets putting up 56 on them). Add in the road trip to Gillette later in the year where the Cards got stomped by 40 and I like the -7.
