Ravens at Broncos – ‘Some guy’ attempts 62 passes (62!! Really Jim Caldwell? 62??) while Ray Rice gets 20 touches (I,m not fantasy-bitter though, no sirreee!). Meanwhile the ex noodle-armed Herman Munster clone tosses 7 TDs.... I think his neck is ok now. My Baltimore/Unders wager drifts well wide of the posts.
SUNDAY BABY!!
Fins at Brownies – Should be close but can’t find any angles. No bet.
VIKES at Kittens – LOCK OF THE WEEK, MONTH, SEASON alert!!! The Purplenation finished 6 games better last season and I can’t see much changing.... unless you think that Reggie Bush is the new Motown messiah!! (you do?... please seek help). PEDerson will run for 175 yds and 2 TDs ‘cos that’s what he does against meh defences. It’s also safe to put Jennings and Rudolph in fantasy line-ups. 15/8 Vikings is the gift of all gifts.
Rrrraiders at Colts – Could be car-crash TV if the Raiders are as bad as advertised, my hunch is that it takes 3 or 4 weeks to really fall apart though. I say the defence keeps them in this game long enough to cover the spread. Take Oakland +8.5.
Chefs at Jags - Does anyone really want to bet Kansas giving points on the road? Even against Blaine Gabbert? Hmm maybe it IS a good idea.......... I’m still not sold. No bet.
Buccs at J.E.T.S Jets – One way traffic as far as the punters are concerned but I try to steer clear of any Week 1 road-favourite bandwagons, tempting as this one appears. No bet.
FALCONS at Saints – Atlanta 6/4 looks a decent bet here with no proof that the Saints can play D.
TITANS at Steelers – If there was a ‘which-game-goes-to-overtime’ market I would be all over this one... like a heat seeking Bernie Pollard missile. 9/4 Titans has to be the bet.
BENGALS at Bears – Don’t sleep on the Bengals, they’re REALLY good. Jay Cutler and Matt Forte..... meet Geno Atkins, Michael Johnson and Carlos Dunlap. 6/4 Cincy will do for me.
Seahawks at Panthers – This could be a cagey, slow burner and under 44.5 looks a good shout. Looking forward to seeing some of this.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtVOSMRgo1k
Pats at Bills – A long day for the Bills in prospect and this won’t go over 50pts unless Brady cooks up a 40burger. Back the unders with impunity.
Pack at Niners – No bet but a game to savour.
Cards at Rams – Call me crazy but I’m all over the Rams to grind out a Dourest Show on Turf Superbowl win.... starting with a shutout of the comical Cruds. Over/under Palmer INTs = 3.5.
Giants at COWBOYS – Eli loves playing at Jerryworld...... I hear you. Well it ends tonight! Romo to Dez.....TD! Romo to Witten...... TD! Romo to Dez......TD! Romo to Austin......TD! Romo to Dez....TD!!!! It’s a blowout I tell you. The Giants still pip the Cowboys to the division though, after Garrett ices his kicker in Week 17.
Eagles at Redskins – A basketball score in the offing here as both offences race up and down the field at will. Robbie Threesticks gets the W with a last second allez oop to Peter Waiter. Whatever the overs is it’s not enough. (Finally, phew) Texans at Chargers – Meh!
Rubbish. If you know you're stuff, have followed the ins and outs and kept an eye on pre-season; it's the best weekend of the season for value bets.
AH ha ha. You're having a laff surely. Give me an example of your Value bet.
