Well I ussually don't play the MNF Game, atleast I dont always post it here on Covers.com, ussually I'll either NOT play it, or just NOT post it... But tonight, im Going to go ahead and Post my MNF Play...
My Wk7 Thread was rightfully, moved to the Penalty Box bc too many arguments and complete non-football, related topics were being discussed/argued about! I had, by far, my Worst Week of the Season, with a 2-3 Record (-2.7 Units), Losing my Best Bet (SD heartbreaker!) and just all in all, not Running so Hot!!! I didn't have time yesterday to "Lock-In" my SNF Play, but its no big surprise AT ALL, that I would have Lost that Bet as well (would've taken Minnesota! lol, of course right!)... So I "might be" a pretty good fade tonight... Though I'm not running all that bad, by some of the responses, you'd think I just went 0-8... In any event, take my Picks with a Grain of Salt...
Dallas -3 vs NYG: Tonight I'm gonna rock with the Home-team, in a Good situation! This is a Classic Clash between 2 NFC East Rivals! The G-Men Playing VERY Well and the Cowboys, NOT Playing so well... one Teams 4-2, while the others 1-4.... The Cowboys are definitely an underachieving team but their stats aren't completely awful. They're rated 3rd against the Pass and 3rd in Total Yds allowed, while also rating 3rd in Total Yds and 4th in Passing Yds, so they're perfectly "capable" of putting together a pretty good game... The Giants can only go as far as their Defense takes them... and their Defense can only go as far as their ferocious pass-rush takes them!!! Romo has a quick release and has the weapons in Witten and Austin to get the ball out of his hands Quickly and neutralize the pass-rush with Quick Slants, or with Witten hitting out-routes or quick Pop-passes in the seam, plus u can add-in some well-timed screens to Felix, who is suddenly emerging as a VERY Good receiving RB outta the backfield... They have the Weapons to off-set the Giants strengths. The Giants Defense is REALLY REALLY Good and this game is 100% Up to the Boys ability to PROTECT the Football and NOT Turn the Ball over... Romo is prone to that! So it remains to be seen if he will be smart with the football... Plus the Cowboys have been their own worst enemy by getting penalties and hurting themselves... Wade Phillips is an AWFUL coach, In my opinion, but Him and His Staff MUST Focus on Avoiding Penalties tonight, AT ALL COSTS!!! In-front of a National Crowd, Americas Team MUST protect the football and avoid getting Penalties called against them! If they do that, they'll Win this Football Game tonight... The point is, the Cowboys are "capable" of being 4-1 right now but they really are the definition of a Good Football Team, just hurting themselves and screwing themselves over! The Giants are a Team who Pounds the ball on the Ground and plays Great Defense... Eli adds in a Solid Passing game with a handful of above Avg WRs, plus a Solid TE in Boss... I think the Boys will be able to slow down Bradshaw/ Jacobs tonight and put the ball in Eli's hands, forcing him to make plays through the air, and I just know Eli's prone to having those "stinkers", and I'm expecting a "stinker" tonight out of Eli and his WR Corps... a Handful of Eli's INTs have been "Tip-Drills" created by his WRs having butter-fingers and playing Volleyball with the Ball.... His WRs have been prone to Dropping the Football quite often, sometimes creating these "Tip-Drill" scenarios where the CBs and Safeties Snatch the Ball Right outta the Air... I could Easily see Eli being SLIGHTLY off-Target, making the WRs Adjust in mid-motion and thus Dropping the Football and ricocheting the Football into the CBs and Safeties Hands, creating 2+ INTs... All in All, Tonight's game is MUCH BIGGER than the Cowboys are leading on to believe, they CANNOT Afford to Lose ANOTHER NFC East Game and if they have any hope about making the Playoffs, they MUST Win tonight's NFC East Tilt!! The Cowboy ARE NOT out of it, but they need to Win these NFC East Games.... They are going to put it all together and catch a HUGE NFC East Victory tonight!!!! (Laying 1-Unit on Da 'Boys)
Wish me Luck Guys!!!
I REALLY Appreciate those of you who have Stuck with me through the adversity and I look forward to bringing you more and more Winners!!! This week was just a bump in the road and well DEFINITELY Rebound Next Week!!! But Tonight, we look to move to 3-3 on the Week!!! (Im not gonna chase the negative Units, but salvaging a .500 record for the Week would be AWESOME!!!)
BOL to EVERYONE!!!
