Can't seem to get a handle on the NFL but it gots to get better. Right? :shrug:
Anyways.....
Indianapolis -9.5 @ New York-A
IND-K-Vinatieri-Questionable
Division sandwich for the Colts, but the JETS is in off a pair of division games. Indy comes in with their 25th rated "D".
JETS are 5-2-1 of late, with misses by just 1 & 1.5 pts.
Colts are a 15-3 spread play on the non-division road while the JETS are 10-18 ATS as pups
---I'll lean towards the soon-to-be 10.0 points.---
------------
San Diego -1.5 @ Baltimore
BAL-QB-McNair-Probable
So much for riding the Ravens. They were fortunate LW against the undercooked Brownies.
Baltimore still leads the league in takeaways early in this season with a +10, but will that be enough to curtail the red-hot Chargers who have a 435-142 RY edge?
Chargers are 22-8 ATS of late, 21-5 ATS off less 11 pt "D" effort, 13-2 ATS as dogs in 2nd HG & a pleasant 6-1 ATS off a bye.
Ravens are 10-3 in 2nd hoster.
--Line is right on the money. Points are a premium here--
-------------
Minnesota @ Buffalo -1.0
MIN-WR-Robinson-Questionable
Three costly turnovers cost the Bills LW.
Vikings "D" has held the last 9 of its last 10 foes under 20 pts. Impressive.
Bills are 10-2 ATS off a SU division loss
Vikings are 6-16 ATS on the non-division road, 2-9 as road dogs vs foes off a SU win & ATS loss as well as 1-6 as an Oct dog vs a losing opponent.
Bills "D" steps up & wins this game.
PLAYED - BUFFALO BILLS -1.0
-------------
Dallas -10.0 @ Tennessee
DAL-WR-Owens-Questionable
TEN-RB-Brown-Questionable
Division sandwich for the Boys but they've had an extra week to prepare without Owens.
Titans stink but are 9-2 ATS as dogs vs a AFC team.
Cowboys are just 3-14 ATS on the AFC road, 2-11 on the road off a win of at least 14 pts & 1-8 ATS on the road off a SU division win.
I'll pull a semi- M C Hammer and "Don't touch this".
-------------
409 San Francisco @ Kansas City -7.0
SF-RB-Gore-Questionable
A couple a points dropped in the spot in this one due to Greens concussion.
Just a sickening 8 ppg for the rested Chiefs vs Cincy & Denver, but San Fran is just what the doctor ordered
49ers are an amazing 18-142 ATS when losing outright, while the SU winner is a finger-licking 60-7 ATS in Chief HGs.
KC is 12-2 ATS in its 3rd HG & a solid 12-4 ATS in Oct.
---PLAYED KANSAS CITY -7.0 ---
------------
New Orleans @ Carolina -7.5
Hilton opened this game at -9.0 & was quickly bet down. I've have to admit that the points appear attracive here.
The dog is still a profitable 39-17 ATS when the Panthers take the field.
Saints are 17-3 ATS on the division road & 12-4 as RDs of 6+ pts of late.
Panthers are just 2-8 ATS off a SU division road win, and the series host checks in at 1-10 vs the points.
--Leaning towards that glaring hook on the end--
------------
Arizona @ Atlanta -7.0
Not too interested here.
Cards are 10-3 ATS off a loss of less than 8 pts, but 4-16 ATS on the non-division road & 3-12 away back-to-back losses.
SU winner is 16-2-1 ATS in 'Zona games since LY.
--Atlanta, if anything---
-------------
Miami -4.0 @ Houston
STINKER !!!!!
--PASS--
--------------
Detroit @ St. Louis -5.5
Haven't looked but at first sight I would give the 5.5
--------------
New England @ Cincinnati -6.0
NE-RB-Dillon-Questionable
Believe or not, the Bengals are a perfect 7-0 ATS vs the Patsies.
Patsies are 16-5 ATS off a SU loss, but 3-17 in its 2nd RG of the year.
I have the Bengals by 7.
--still I LEAN BENGALS -6.0--
---------------
Jacksonville v-2.5 @ Washington
Sure there's a chance that the Jags may suffer a letdown this Sunday, off that 3-game run, but they are a strong 15-5 ATS in non-division play.
'Skins are 0-4 hosting AFC teams.
--PLAYED JACKSONVILLE -2.5--
----------------
Cleveland -3.0 @ Oakland
CLE-RB-Droughns-Questionable
OAK-QB-Brooks-OUT
Another STINKER but would lean to the 3.0 if my arm was being twisted.
-----------------
Seattle @ Chicago -3.0
-NBC-
SEA-RB-Alexander-Out
CHC-TE-Clark-Questionable
Same as last week I took Da Bears early again without batting a lash.
Bears are 14-6 ATS non-division HFs.
Seattle is 17 pts from an 18-2 ATS run, but Chicago has covered their last 7 HGs.
Seahawks are also 1-7 ATS on non-division road & did not cover more than 2 straight last year.
--PLAYED DA BEARS -3.0--
------------------
Green Bay @ Philadelphia -11.0
A lot like Christmas here...Haven't even peeked.
One thing for sure is I would'nt bet your money on GB.
