Take all of the losers in week #1 vs. all of the winners in week #1. Also, if 2 teams play that both went over in week #1 bet the under. Or vice versa, slang for just the opposite, on the totals. Anyway before Monday night's game here is what you should play

Houston vs. Detroit
Indy vs. Tenn.
N.Y. Giants vs. Washington
Dallas vs. Cleveland
T.B. vs. Seattle

TB/Sea. over
SD/NYJets under
SF/NO over
Atl./St. Louis over

N.O. over S.F.
Bufffalo over Oak.
both these two losers covered but didn't win the game

This system has worked in the past. I don't know the exact percentages or w-l however, i do know that if you bet them all you would have money in the year's past. Sounds different, but to make money you can't be regular.

i would think the biggest reason to back loser of week one is that they wouldnt want the 0-2 monkey, rarely do 0-2s make the playoffs and dont think HCs dont know that

Not that I believe in "must wins", or teams that "don't want to go 0-2" (I mean, who does want to lose, ever?), but I like a few of these. I was already looking at Tenn and TB being pretty strong plays.

The whole world seems to be on Indy this week. 0-1 or not, this is still not a very good spot for a dome team like the Colts. As I see it, they have become road favorites (after opening as the dog) purely because people see them as desperate. I think the linemaker had it right in the first place (Tenn -2?), and I will side with him and take the Titans.

A pretty sizeable % of people are very high on Seattle this year. But these guys have had a crazy travel schedule to start the season...From Sea to NO, back to Sea for the week, now all the way across the country (almost as far as you could possibly travel in the NFL) for this game in TB. It's difficult in the NFL to (1) win on the opposite coast, and (2) win back to back road games. Seattle is expected to do both...AND cover the -3 as well. That seems like a tall order. These aren't the Bucs of old, but the travel + the homefield should tilt this game in favor of TB.

The rest I am not as sold on. Dallas should rebound...surely Cleveland is not this good. I hate laying more than 3 pts though. The Giants would be very hard for me to support at this point, until I see they have anything at all on either side of the ball. And as for Houston, with a lifetime road record of 4-12, +3 doesn't seem too generous at this point. Even with Charles Rogers out... I think this Detroit team may make a little noise (not a playoff contender by any means, but they should be able to win games like this). Roy Williams may not be a huge step down from Rogers.
