25 DIME - SAN DIEGO CHARGERS - Love the Chargers in this spot here.
Who are the Giants to be laying more than a field goal to anybody right now?
Seriously folks, this is a team that over the last 3 weeks has gone from contender to pretender. Simple as that.
It started in New Orleans 3 weeks ago, when the Saints exposed this Giants defense to a degree we haven't seen under Tom Coughlin.
Then 2 weeks ago, Kurt Warner and the Arizona Cardinals went into New York and exposed Giants even more in getting the outright win as a 7 point underdog.
Last week the Eagles showed what happened against New Orleans and Arizona was no accident as they embarrassed New York in a big way.
The Giants for all intents and purposes, are done.
Mark it down now. They are done and the main reason they are done is the fact they can't cover anybody.
The can't get pressure with their front four so they are having to blitz more, and if you know anything about the NFL, then you should know if you blitz in this league, the chances are you are playing man to man behind it and if those guys can't cover, you are in big trouble.
After they play the Chargers today, they play Atlanta, at Denver, Dallas and Philly. Quite frankly, I can see them losing all 4 of those games. They catch a break facing Washington after that but then they finish with Carolna and at Minnesota.
I know this might be hard to accept but 8-8 is probably reality, or even 7-9 isn't out of the question. That is how bad and overrated this team is.
At the NFL level, when you lose your defensive coordinator - as good as Spagnuola is, there is a very good chance your defense is going to struggle which is exactly what we are seeing from New York. They look lost.
Even after their implosion the last 3 weeks, the Giants are still an overvalued team. Highly overvalued, and I will gladly take the Chargers who I feel match up very well offensively against this Giants defense and will be able to have enough success to be in this game the whole way.
I will gladly take the Chargers and the points and it wouldn't suprise me in the least bit to see San Diego win this game outright.

10 DIME - CAROLINA PANTHERS - Way to many points here.
I have to admit, I didn't give the Panthers a chance out in Arizona last week but let me tell you something right now, that was the way I remember the Panthers playing.
The way they ran the football and put Jake in very manageable situations, that is how this team used to win football games.
Now they are catching close to 2 touchdowns here against a division foe they are very familiar with and having gotten the money 4 of the last 5 meetings.
Watching the Monday night game and seeing the success the Falcons were having on the ground against this Saints defense, I immediately felt the Panthers would be able to do the same thing today.
Carolina will attack this game exactly the same way they did Arizona last week. Run the football. Run the football some more. Run the football until you can't run the football anymore.
Can the Panthers win this game outright? You better believe they can, and if they win the turnover battle, they just might.
But catching this many points from a Saints team that all of a sudden is overvalued.
Folks, 2 years ago the linemaker in Vegas got burned by the high scoring Patriots as they covered their 10 games to start the year and the public killed the Vegas sportsbooks right along with it.
After they blew out Buffalo on Sunday night 56-10, oddsmakers in Vegas said that's it. We are not letting this team beat us again.
The next 6 weeks of the regular season the Patriots were laying 24 at home to Philly, 20 1/2 on the road at Baltimore, 24 at home to the Jets, 24 at home to the Dolphins and 13 on the road at New York.
That gives you and idea of how the linemakers overvalued the Patriots because they weren't going to let the public make money with this team.
After the Buffalo blowout, you know what the Patriots went against the spread the rest of the year including the playoffs? 1-10 ATS.
I honestly feel we are dealing with a Saints team the linemaker has decided to do the same thing with but the only difference is they are not waiting for week 11 to jack the line up like they did with New England.
They started last week with the -11 number with Atlanta, and it continued this week with a 13 number with the Panthers.
Learned my lesson on Monday night. Simple as that.
