[The Bullseye]

Don't look now but The Bullseye squad has put together back to back 4-1 weeks to get their nose above .500 on the season. Can they make it 3 in a row? Here's who the team is going with for Week 17:


Michael McClymont (11-3-2): Miami Dolphins vs New England Patriots UNDER 41 (-110)

"Forty-one points for offenses led by Mac Jones and Teddy Bridgewater in the New England winter? Under, please."


Jon Metler (10-6-0): JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS -4 (-108) vs Houston Texans

"Despite covering the spread against the Kansas City Chiefs and Dallas Cowboys, and winning outright against the Tennessee Titans over the last few weeks, it's now time for the Houston Texans to get serious. If you're the Texans, you cannot screw up this epic tank job for a quarterback in the 2023 NFL Draft. The Chicago Bears would draft first overall, not the Texans if Houston were to win one more game. In Week 17, I make the Jacksonville Jaguars 6-point favorites over the Texans, which actually was the spread on the look-ahead line."


Andrew Brennan (10-6-0): NEW YORK GIANTS -5.5 (-111) vs Indianapolis Colts

"When you get the chance to pick against an already-atrocious head coach who is also now actively choosing to put the ball in the hands of his obviously inferior players, you simply ignore everything the other team has done recently (yes, the Giants have struggled) and make the bet. Don't even shop around for this one, just bet the Giants at every single book."


Esten McLaren (6-10-0): Minnesota Vikings vs Green Bay Packers UNDER 48.5 (-110)

"This is a high number for a late-season divisional game with both teams having something to play for, and in the cold at Lambeau Field. Minnesota and Green Bay played to a total of 30 points in their Week 1 encounter with the Vikes winning 23-7. This second meeting should be much more competitive as Minnesota fights for playoff seeding and Green Bay continues to fight for a wild-card berth. The total has steadily risen since last week's look-ahead line was released but temperatures will hover around freezing at the time of the 4 p.m. ET kickoff in Green Bay."


Sean Tomlinson (3-13-0): SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS -5 (-110) vs Las Vegas Raiders

"George Kittle is white hot right now after recording 213 receiving yards and four touchdowns over his last two games. He's notched two straight two-score contests, quickly equaling his touchdowns on the season entering Week 15. His sudden eruption can be tied to ideal matchups, the absence of Deebo Samuel, or a connection with Brock Purdy. Or maybe a bit of everything, and now he'll get another chance to tee off on a defense that struggles against tight ends. The Las Vegas Raiders rank 19th while allowing 50.9 yards per game to the position."

That's just because thread with all picks is posted on Thursdays, the picks themselves are entered throughout the week. And there have been no issues I am aware of with 49ers line, so I am sure it was right at time it was entered.

[wquine]

Have to check this thread to make sure I'm not on Sean's side...

[USCPHILLYGUY]

So they can get a stale line but not us……..makes sense

[jackpot269]

0-5 last week yay

[pavyracer]

So they can get a stake line but not us……..makes sense

I believe screenshots should have been required for Bullseye as they post their picks on Thursday but claim they got the lines earlier in the week.

What stops someone of tracking the line movement Tu-Th and at the last minute saying he made his pick on Tu but it was revealed to the world on Th?

This whole contest has become a shit show. Games missing, games not being honored even lines were correct on Tuesday. Hysterical

Just STOP already.

[USCPHILLYGUY]

Just STOP already.

Seriously dude?

[Sam Losco]

What's stale? LT already told you they can pick from the start of the week, same as everyone else.

You could have taken the same line if you chose to when he did.

[playersonly69]

I think that the problem is that we DID take lines earlier in the week only to get our picks cancelled! I took picks that were NOT bad lines at all when I took them and they were cancelled

[USCPHILLYGUY]

Opti I took N. England +1.5 on tues when it was not a stale line as it was listed at most books. Some even were +2. That pick was then cancelled

[LT Profits]

Seriously dude?

BIG difference between your situation and the other one, and neither has to do with stale lines. You both picked legit early lines on Tuesday, difference is other line stayed live the whole way and yours stopped updating and was replaced by a new updating ID. We have been consistent all year in handling these situations, which is deleting original plays so there is no chance to make same play twice.

Philly i GET it is not your fault, but situation is the same for EVERYONE that took good early lines in any of the disabled games. it SUCKS that guys that beat the line moves don't get rewarded, but there is no other way to do it, if we keep early plays live, we would have to go through over 700 entries to make sure nobody duped a play, which is totally impractical.

So why is Sean’s San Fran -5 legit

[hhsilver]

from the details of the concensus tab for SF game:

notice 11 players got SF at -5 ( Sean plus 10 others)

among all the problems with the contest , this isn't one of them .

----

San Francisco 11 -5.0 (-110) San Francisco 1 -9.5 (-108) San Francisco 7 -9.5 (-107) San Francisco 2 -10.0 (-104)

+10.0 (-116) 1 Las Vegas +9.5 (-113) 4 Las Vegas +9.5 (-112) 1 Las Vegas +5.0 (-110) 6 Las Vegas +9.5 (-110) 2 Las Vegas +10.0 (-110) 3 Las Vegas

[USCPHILLYGUY]

I agree completely Silver

[pavyracer]

The issue I have is we do not get a notification when plays are cancelled for whatever reason. A sticky thread needs to be on PT to inform us. Hey you know that Miami pick you made on Tuesday? Something was wrong and we deleted it. So get your ass back there before games start and pick it again at whatever line we decided to offer now.

Again, too many names to do through. That's why I keeps saying to keep up with the comments on the contest page.

[pavyracer]

So are you saying that the line feed selectively picks the games to not update? This is strange.

So all of us who picked the Miami-Patriots game on Tuesday at the correct lines had our game deleted on Thursday because tthe line wasn't updating? Couldn't you track which guys picked live lines and which guys picked stale lines and just delete the plays of the stale lines?

LT this is a big issue if true. You can't keep penalizing us for doing the right thing but your equipment that runs the contest is faulty!

[USCPHILLYGUY]

He entered Tuesday and line has not stopped updating

MY GAME WAS ALSO ENTERED TUES!

jesus LT you have to stop making excuses for all the shit that’s going on here

[franklee168]

I'm sensing the ban hammer will be dropped after this contest.

[cincinnatikid513]

will the tcu +7.5 picks be marked as a loss

[Optional]

Philly just being a pedant who wont admit he was wrong on this weeks criticism.

I'm sure he will sniff out a more valid one to bitch about next week.

Getting used to it by now.

Btw…don’t think Franklee was talking about me…….

I thought he was. But he would have been wrong anyway. Care about the contest but not enough to ban complainers.
