Starting this out, as UD is probably too busy watching tall men putting orange balls through metal hoops. lol.
Love Houston PK on Thursday. The Broncos smoke the awful Chiefs at Mile High....great, but that doesn't change the fact that this is still not a very good road team, and is a team that had lost on the road to the horrible Raiders and Bears right before their easy home win. Now they head back on the road to play against a Texans team that plays well at home (4-2), and are coming off a solid home win over the Bucs. Denver sucks on the road with 2 wins...one over the crappy Chiefs, and a lucky early season win over the Bills. Early bets coming in look to have the public backing Denver pretty hard, and I think this is one of those times, (like Stif likes to point out) that people are taking too much stock into last week's performance....with the Broncos putting up 41 points and marching up and down the field all day. But in reality....most teams should have had that result at home against KC, and the Texans win is probably more impressive with a solid result over a Bucs team in the thick of the playoff race. This also has to be the first time Houston has hosted a prime-time NFL game since the Oilers days... and that city, stadium, and locker room should be pumped Thursday. Schaub or Sage...Home team wins this one by 10+ points, IMO.
Probably laying off the Saturday game. Not sure I could lay 8.5/9 points with the public-backed Bengals on the road where they stink, going 1-5....but there's also no way I could back the Niners in any situation where I'm not getting 20+ points! lol! SF could have the worst offence of the past 10 years...which means Cincy might only need 2 TDs to cover the number! Even though it's a rare Saturday game...I think I'm finally going to be smart, and layoff a horrible situation where there is no clear-cut smart play, IMO. But gun to the head, I'd (gulp) have to take Shawn Hill and the Niners.
NO-PLAY! I'll be watching Hockey Night in Canada anyway...lol!
