YTD: 4-2. +3.85 Units
Tried to ease into it in the opening week....not this week, lol.
Steelers -9.5 vs Bills
Buffalo's defence is depleted, their passing game blows, and their decent running game faces a good run defence. I don't see the Bills keeping this one close in Pittsburgh's home opener.
Packers +1 vs Giants
I assume alot of people will be on the Packers because of the NY injuries to marquee players, as well as their horrible defensive performance against Dallas, and that is a part of my play....but this also seems to be a sandwich game for the Giants after losing to Dallas last week, and playing another division rival in the Redskins next week. Look ahead? I'm not a trend guy, but NY is 1-8 vs the spread the week before the rival game against Washington. Look ahead indeed. Farve will carve up that ****ty secondary of NY, and with NY missing alot of their weapons this week, they won't keep up like they did in Dallas.
Saints -3 vs Bucs
You gotta figure the Saints offence explodes after being kept in check in a tough spot opening night. Lots of time to prepare, and this contender will not want to start out 0-2. Bucs offence is horrible and injured. Saints in a rout.
Vikings +3.5 vs Lions
Everybody seems to be excited about the Detroit offence and their big receivers, but I think the under-rated Vikings get this done, and at the very least cover. Defence and a running game gets it done in this division, and Minny is hands down the better team in these areas.....Vikings win a close one IMO.
Panthers -6.5 vs Texans
Houston beat a bad KC team in Texas....big deal, this is like night and day having to go into Carolina and face the Panthers in their home opener. The Cats are a great all around team....looked great in beating a good STL team on the road (held them to only 238 total yds), out rushed Steven Jackson and the Rams by more than 2-1, and have the best player on the field in Steve Smith. Delhomme looked good. Mismatches all over the field in this one....surprised it's not DD. Another rout IMO.
Colts -7 vs Titans
Best team in the NFL, who rolled NFC contender New Orleans, only giving a TD to a Titans team who played a little over their heads last week, and aren't that good of a team....Jax inexplicably could not stop the run....Indy will....and Peyton will go off as usual against what should be a bad Tenn secondary....the overrated Jags couldn't exploit them, the Colts will.
Jets +10.5 vs Ravens
I don't see that bumbling Ravens offence covering a DD number...Jets cover a close, low scoring game, IMO...Just a hunch. lol.
Raiders +10.5 vs Broncos
Way too many points here as well...Denver just plain does not cover pointspreads (1-7 ATS @ home in 2006, and did not cover week 1 @ Buf), so I don't expect them to cover DD's. Oakland should be improved this year, will likely have Culpepper starting with a chip on his shoulder...Oakland has a chance to win this outright IMO.
2 Units Each
I'll also be on the Skins +7 on Monday, but will wait for that one.....GL Sunday! :beerbang:
