All plays are for 1 unit unless stated otherwise.
Well, that's 2 Sundays out of 3 where I didn't get to watch the games, and they were my 2 worst weeks of the year. I am watching the games this week!! Also took way too many favorites last week and I usually don't do well when I do that. Oh well, onward.
Philly -9: Sure, take another big favorite you dope. Actually, I look at this as something of a bounceback spot for Philly after a subpar winning performance last week. Just don't see a way the Colts stay competitive here. Colts having trouble scoring against everyone, it doesn't get easier here. Eagles to get up early and cruise and hopefully I don't get backdoored.
Detroit / Green Bay Over 41: No defence in this game. Last week's Dal/Det game was an anomoly. This team still doesn't defend well...the 'Boys just have no offence. Should be a wide open shootout type of game and I think this total is on the low side due to both teams recent low totals.
Atlanta +5 -105: Pitt's hot so this is hard to do, but I think the Falcons can give the Steelers some problems here. Atlanta has been competitive in almost every game this year, almost always close even when losing. And Atlanta has shown they are a more than capable road team too. Pitt has yet to beat a really good team. A couple 3-point wins over Clev, and relatively easy wins against Cinci, Indy and Baltimore...all weaker than the Falcons. Against good teams like New Orleans, and teams that WERE good a while back like Oak and NE, the Steelers have come up short. In short, I don't think Pittsburgh has really been tested for at least a month. This line seems like just a few too many points to cover, if in fact the Steelers even win the game.
San Diego / St Louis Over 44: Chargers defence getting progressively worse. At the same time the Rams have finally figured out what makes their offence tick, mixing the running and passing games effectively. Rams defence giving up garbage points and that should be all that's needed to ensure this one goes over the number.
Houston +10 (or better, not in yet): A letdown spot for Tennessee I think, with Pittsburgh up next for them, and a win over Indy to tie for the division lead last week. Also a bounceback for the Texans after getting absolutely destroyed by the mighty Bengals last week. I've gotten burned with Houston a couple times this year, but it seems to me they usually follow up a miserable performance with at least a half decent one, and I don't see Tenn being the kind of team that should be laying 10 to anyone. Hou CAN stay competitive against teams that are weaker defensively, as is the case here.
Arizona -3 -115: Some injury concerns on the Cardinals side, but I still like it. Seattle is really struggling to do anything right at this point. 'Hawks have had real trouble scoring against good D, and this D is not bad. Cards have faced tough opponents recently and this is a big step down in class. Ariz can do enough to win and cover.
More to be added in the morning, or afternoon, or evening....
Good luck all.
