Friday`s Pre Season Picks

[soul train]

The jags were just brutal last night,terrible play.

Let`s see if i can bounce back here tonight.

I usually do my own research and write ups,but i came across this trend and it seems fit to take a shot with it.

Talking about the Bills-Bears game.........

I will probably be the only 1 on the Bears,but i will say 1 thing,there are so many games that look so obvious and that are not cashing in this pre season and the bills fall into that category, so i will go the other way here and go with this trend.

Buffalo has run the ball well (avg 140.5 ypg) but struggled something fierce through the air passing for a dismal average of only 115.0 yards per game! Chicago's defense ranks No. 1 in the Pre-Season against the run (allow an average of 50.0 ypg) and this unit will be up for the challenge that Buffalo's ground game will provide.

Here's an interesting angle to consider. Since 1984, AFC road favorites are a wallet-breaking 1-8 ATS provided they enter off back-to-back SU wins and matched up against an NFC foe. This unique systems goes against Buffalo.

Here`s another trend.......

Since 1983, favorites coming off a 20-point or more straight up victory are a stiff 22-57 ATS in their next game! The Bills just smashed the Packers by the score of 27-7.

Bears head coach Lovie Smith has named Chad Hutchinson the starting quarterback on opening day. However, backup Kyle Orton is improving rapidly and stands a good performance or two away from creating a serious quarterback controversy in Chicago! Rest assured, Orton will look to score when he gets the call on Friday night!

My personal favorite is the Panthers.
They should work over this terrible Cleveland team.
If the Browns win 4 games this season they will be lucky.Very bad football team.
The Panthers coming off a lose should bounce back big time.

Those trends are tough to buck but if I were wagering tonight i'd be leaning toward the Bills -the small 3.... they have a serious Hb battle going on for the #2 spot behind Willis McGahee...Shaud Williams and rookie Lionel Gates are expected to get the bulk of the work after Willis exits and both backs will want to shine ..I just feel the Bills defensive depth will be too much for the Bears and their lowly offense.

I think the best play in this game though may be Under the 37 with both teams defenses rising to the occasion.

A 16-13 game possibly?

Almost forgot..Good Luck!

Thanks first and goal,Bills should be a bit more then -3 even though it is on the road.Looks kind of easy to jump on the bills.I see lots of money flowing in on the bears.Bills are down to -143 on the money line.I might drop a few more bucks on the bears later,see what happens with this line.

good luck
