Where it is real F ing COLD
I have a game circled in the upcoming weeks that depending on health and spread should be an absolute blowout. I seem to find these plays and do quite well with them. Anyone else have a game circled down the line. For example this year I had the Vikings circled on opening day right when the lines come out or last year, I had the Lions circled on Turkey day vs Green Bay. This year I have a similar type of play,

I actually have one circled each week. It's anybody who plays the Vikings.

Had Vikings circled if they were dogs to the Skins, they opened -1 and now it's +1 and climbing, Skins favored! I don't care if RG3 is back or not, big let down after Dallas win in OT in Big D and Vikings? ya they went OT to Tampa, but now back at home and starting to play better with Teddy B, slight home edge to Vikings outdoors and RG3 wants to impress, Vikings I feel will win SU!

But then again, this is the NFL!

I think RG 3 helps Minny this week, I am picking them but I do not trust the Vikes pass blocking one bit but they have battled some really tough foes this year

I was reading some power rankings where Green Bay has a 54 :mj07:and Denver has a 56 rating. If Green Bay were to play in Denver this year the line would be Denver - 6 to 7 with home field. I wish that were happening. That would be an absolute flogging. I just don't know why the Packers have such a high power rating. I could see 51 and be a 9 point dog in Denver, I think they are over inflated.

Just had to give you some more Packer insight since they are on a bye this week

Flogging? So if Minny played at denver they would be favored by 28?

Estimated NFL Power Ratings (October 29, 2014)
--statintelligence

An updated look at the estimates. Remember to allot 3 points for home field advantage.

NFL
88: Denver
85: Seattle
83: Indianapolis, Green Bay, New Orleans
82: New England, Baltimore, Dallas, Philadelphia, San Francisco
81: San Diego, Kansas City, Detroit
80: Cincinnati, Arizona
79: Miami
78: Pittsburgh, Chicago
77: Cleveland, Houston, NY Giants, Washington (RGIII), Carolina, Atlanta
76: Buffalo
75: Minnesota, St. Louis
74: NY Jets, Tampa Bay
73: Tennessee, Oakland
72: Jacksonville

the market would price denver very close to -8.0 over green bay at the moment.

They're on a bye this week, but all I can think about is the Packers. Packers, Packers, Packers. It's like I'm obsessed with them or something! :shrug:

"the bunker"
normally after seeing a team score a ridiculous amount of points and set records on offense I`d be salivating to go against them.....but in this case and knowing that the ravens have serious tight end and cornerback issues(our cornerback issues are particularly dire given that our backups are utterly inept...and our safety contingent is still unsettled),i`m thinking they could be in for a rough ride in Pittsburgh....

I HATE betting on the steelers against the ravens but gambling is an utterly objective pursuit and I`m more than a bit worried about this game....Antonio brown could be the fantasy play of the year(or a potential lottery prop play).....

I wasn't thinking about that. I was just digging at Zig for digging at me. He knows it was all in fun,

Vikes would be 15 point dogs in Denver

I keep looking at the ravens/steeler game.....ravens def backfield in disarray(best cb out...safety position in total flux)....ravens playing second road game in a row...pitt at home again after their best effort of the season...they`re at home after getting drubbed earlier in the season by the ravens...revenge motivation as well as divisional implications.....steelers have all the mo and the better injury situation.....Antonio brown looks to run wild vs our secondary.......

owen daniels,even if he plays,hasn`t had a full practice since knee surgery...,as well as jimmy being out...hell,even our best o lineman(marshall yanda)is questionable...

yet,in Pittsburgh,the ravens are pick at -125?......stoolers at +105....

honestly don`t understand this line...

That's because the writing is on the wall. Steelers looks so easy this week. That's why they will lose by DD. Where's Sponge when you need him to explain these spots? Ben will look like a 2nd string high school QB this week after his record setting performance.

What's the game? Are you afraid your post will influence the line?

Dec 14 Minnesota @ Detroit if I go by the Power ratings Detroit currently will be a 7 - 8 point favorite but if they have Megatron and Bush back I see them being anywhere from a 9 - 11 point Favorite. Minny will be on it's first road game after having 3 straight at home. I think you lay the points here as I expect the Lions to beat my Vikes by 17 plus. They simply do not match up well with Detroit, the Vikings offensive front should get blown right up just like last time causing Bridgewater to take a beating. Vikings defense has improved immensely but would have to play a great game to keep inside the number and cause turnovers. With Megatron and Bush, it's just too much. I expect a 27 - 10, 31 - 13 type of game.

Vikings offensive line would have to play over their heads
Detroit would have to implode via penalty or mistake (Which they have been known to do)
Need to see the progression of the Vikes offense with Teddy.

Interesting insight, really appreciated. Based on how the season is laid out, the second Dallas game for the Eagles sets up as a letdown. Eagles play at Dallas on
Thanksgiving, @ Seattle then, then home for Dallas in consecutive weeks. Factor in that I expect the Dallas line to maul the Eagles dline, I do not see them winning that game.

Now Romo could be out or hurt, which changes everything, but I just think the schedule lays out as tough in this spot.
