5-10 last week on posted plays.
20-23 for the season on posted plays. (46.5%)
8-7 Mock Hilton (53.3%)
18-12 Carib Contest (60%) 30th Place (Top 20 get paid)
1-2 BW GOW Contest
Pats/Bills over 48.5. New England has trouble on D again. They couldn't stay with any of the Ravens WRs. But Brady is unstoppable given time. This should be a track meet.
Lions/Vikings over 48.5. Both Os much better than the opposing Ds. Inside the Dome and on a fast track should get it over. Lots of Playmakers on both sides: Peterson, Harvin, Stafford, Megatron.
Panthers/Falcons over 48.5. Falcons rolling and Panthers D is suspect. Let's see if Cam can get untracked.
Niners -4 at the Jets. Jets were damn lucky to win and Sanchez is not very accurate or confident these days. Revis is out for the season. Niners stayed in Ohio to avoid another West Coast to East Coast trip and should be more focused this week after getting upset by the Vikings.
Rams +3 vs Seahawks. Rams will also play hard each game for Jeff Fisher, but they are not trustworthy away from home. I'm banking on a bit of a hangover and travel fatigue by Seattle after their miracle win over GB.
Rams/Seahawks under 39. Both Ds much better than the Os and two conservative coaches with young QBs.
Fins/Cards under 40.5. Same thing. Both Ds much better than the Os and two conservative coaches with young QBs Miami's O is going nowhere against Cards D.
Cardinals -4.5 vs Dolphins. I'm riding the Cards until they let me down. Miami is plucky and has a decent D, but they are conservative on O with the rookie QB.
Broncos -6.5 vs Raiders. Peyton could still win that Division and should score easily vs a leaky Raider D. I thought the Denver D was better than they have been playing, but they should be able to handle Carson Palmer.
Bengals -2.5 at Jags. This seems too easy and everyone is on the Bengals, so I'm worried about another trap game like the Niners last week. But I'm leaning on the Benglas good D and a maturing and improving Andy Dalton.
Packers -7. (Bought a half point.) Packers at home sweet home should take out their frustrations on the reeling Saints.
Packers/Saints over 53. Lotta points but Saints D is horrible, and Brees can score on anyone. GB's O at home vs Saints pathetic D will be just what the Pack need to get going. And Brees will get his. Packers D not THAT good. Brees is not Russell Wilson.
Buccaneers -2 vs Redskins. Tampa will play hard every week. They held Cowboys offense to 16 points in Dallas. I'm banking on them having similar success against the Skins and a similar plan vs RGIII like they did against Cam Newton in Week 1. Skins D is not as good as I thought - they lost two stars for the season.
Giants +2 at the Eagles. Vick is Vick and will get hurt and make mistakes. If Giants get some healthy CBs, and better OL play, they will be tough to beat.
Bears/Cowboys under 41.5. Bears D is solid and will hammer that weak Cowboy line and swarm Romo. But Cowboys D will also overwhelm the Bears bad OL. Cowboys OL is makeshift. Bears line even worse. Bears lead the league in sacks. Which QB will force it and make the mistakes? Both are capable of meltdowns. Cutler may get demolished by DeMarcus Ware. And Romo by Peppers.
