Did you ever in your heart of hearts think you would see the day that the Cleveland Browns would be GIVING the Colts 3 points in Indy? The Browns couldnt see off the Bengals in Cleveland FFS! The will he wont he about Peytons status last week obviously affected the team and with another weeks practice under them , especially for Kerry Collins i think we will see an improved Colts team this week. The Texans rushed for 167 yards against the Colts and they will have to shore their run defense up with Peyton Hillis coming next week, although the Browns only ran for 83 yards against the Bengals. Playing the Texans in their house is a world away from playing the Browns at home even without Peyton.
Dallas -3
Now i know on the Tony Romo thread i laid bare my hatred for all things Dallas and Tony Romo, but giving up only 3 points against the 49ers Jesus i think not even Romo could mess this one up. If Rob Ryan throws the same kind of blitz packages he threw at Sanchez to Alex Smith then Smith will spend more time on his back than he will standing up. It took two huge plays from Ginn jr. to see off the Seahawks and the Seahawks are brutal. Looking at the stats the 49ers only had 4 first downs from passing, 4 first downs from rushing and a huge 4 first down from penalties. The 49ers were 1-12 on 3rd downs. The Cowboys had 18 passing first downs against the Jets. If the Cowboys offensive line gives Romo some protection then he will plenty of weapons to see off the 49ers, as long as he doesnt do anything too stupid.

Yeah I saw the Dallas line, maybe they're a bit better than many thought.
Niners beat a bad Seahawks team and Alex Smith is not good enough to lead an offence into January football IMO. Others I like: Buccs +3 Cards +4.5 Saints -6.5 Not surprised to see a delay with the Rams spread, if all fit it could pick em, if everyone that went down is out then it's Giants -11 Think the opposition for all above 3 have been overated on the back of performances yesterday |

By:
Steelers by 30+ IMO
|

By:
Couldn't fancy the Cards given the amount of yardage they gave up yesterday
|

By:
Yeah i agree dont like cards, skins possibly 1 off my bets for sunday at early thoughts. I like overs for lions kc aswell.
Dont think id be playing steelers with a 2 td spread no matter how bad the seahawks are, i just cant bet a team with that high off a spread coming off a bad loss. |
|
By:
I can see why you say that db, but the Skins aren't a pass first team and Rex has yet to prove in 8/9 years of being an NFL QB that he can string 2 decent games together and I'm not convinced the Cards secondary is that bad even after losing DRC, no way can they be as bad as the Giants D..
Cards actually gave up 2.7 yards a carry on the ground against one if the leagues better RB pairings. 4.5 start is big IMO |
|
By:
Not sure on that panthers run game anymore, doesnt seem to be hitting the heights off a couple of seasons ago.
Also dont like cards going into a diffrent timezone and early kickoff. |
|
By:
That timezone stat used to be massive, 1-75 until a couple of seasons from memory but that did change, not sure what it sits at now.
I think the Cards are potentially underated this year |
|
By:
I know its still pretty high but has changed a little since.
Still always a factor that puts me off betting a team, i do think cards will have a better season and possibly division winning season though. Just hopefully not this week. |

By:
early days but i like jacksonville getting 10.5 against a jets team that doesnt scor emany and may have an emotional letdown after yeterdays 9/11 match.
Detroit to stick it to kansas who are in for a long season,redksins to carry on from where they left off yesterday and tampa bay to get over the vikings who wre only in yesterdays match due to san diegos ineptitude. |

Oakland +4 @ Buffalo -4

There are three West teams traveling East for 1pm KO games.
Don't remember that happening for a while - good test of the 'stat'. Interesting lines this week are the totals, every game looks to have moved up, an aggregate of 22 points across every game which is huge. I wish I'd seen that opening Packers points line at 43, no shock to see it 46.5 now and rising.... |

By:
Starting to like the look off the chargers +7 i cant help but think rivers will tear the new england pass defence apart, just look what henne did to it.
I know brady will more than likely do the same in return but i think with the td headstart im tempted to put it in with some off my other bets. O/u in that around 53 points. |
|
By:
sky - points line 54 in Chargers game having opened at 51.
I agree on the pass rush, Pats just couldn't get close to Henne and I'm not subscribing to the idea that the Fins O-line is the best in the league, I think the Pats could struggle to get near oppo QBs all year which points towards shootouts every week. 54 sounds plenty but when you see how easy Brady moves the thing downfield it should make up especially with an (almost) equally capable QB on the other side, chuck in the odd special teams disaster for San Diego and this looks to be a certainty to go over. Again, wish I'd seen the 51 ! |
|
By:
Yeah im not one that loves lines that high, but both will pass possibly 40 odds times each and these wont be little short gains imo. 1 off the higher lines id be tempted to bet, but i like the 7 more so if i get involved id take the 7. m€ay hope for 7.5
Already backed the cowboys and overs in chiefs lions game. |
