Well we followed up our 3 Wk +$$ streak with a poor showing Last Week.... But we WILL Profit Thiswk!
Wk7 would have been a MUCH WORSE Loss, had I not been ALL OVER the Colts ATS & Colts ML!!! We salvaged what was VERY Close to being a DISASTEROUS Week & made it an acceptable loss. But Week 7, BETS2WIN
BUT I think Week 8 BETS2WIN=
Week 8 Thus Far: Carolina Panthers +2u
Here Goes the Rest;
WEEK 8 PICKS:
Minnesota +10 vs GB
Love the UNDER in this game as well, I'm seeing some form of a Field Goal game, no matter who the winner is. The move to Ponder is positive for me, he's a game manager and will keep the Vikings in this game. Eddie Lacy has emerged as a true every-down Back and with GB's WR corp all banged up, they will lean on Lacy and though he will achieve 100+ all-purpose yards, I do not think he will force this game over, nor cover the 10+ point spread. Combine that with Cobb, JJones, & Finley ALL OUT, plus ADP being the focal point of Minns attack, plus Ponder being a solid game manager, this game has 17-14 written ALL OVER IT! (Laying 4 Units)
New Orleans -11 vs Buffalo
The line dropping with the news of CJ Spiller being announced OUT "officially" does concern me, but this is similar to the Car vs TB game, yeah the "spot" reeks of 'trap', but sometimes ya just cant ignore the supremely more talented team! I think this is a similar spot to Cleveland/Weeden 2 Weeks ago, Weeden had played WAY ABOVE his head & juiced the line, thus providing GREAT Value to FADE Clev, Thad Lewis has done the Same here IMHO! He isn't good and feasted on an overrated and regressing Dolphins teams and now is juicing the Bills line a couple Points (should be 13.5, maybe 14+)... Now throw in the Bills Biggest Play Threat outta the backfield being OUT & you have a team that will be fairly easy to Defend. FJax is very efficient, don't get me wrong! BUT Buffalo will need to shootout and score 28+.... and they WILL NOT! IMHO.... Buffalo can Run REALLY Well but their DEF is gonna get SHREDDED; Look at their DEF ratings & then the Teams who their DEF's faced; NE (NOT NE of Old!), Car(b4 their recent surge) , NYJ (AWFUL passing), Bal (not terrible), Clev (Hoyer hurt/Weeden in), Cin (good), Mia (regressing greatly!)... and their DEF is ranked THIS LOW from these pretty mediocre teams??? I smell a N'awlens 40+ Point Effort.... (Laying 4 Units)
Detroit -3 vs Dallas
Detroit is a Dangerous team thisyr, with ALL those injuries to GB & CHI; they may emerge the victor in the NFC North, their OFF attack is like a poor-mans Saints, but instead of Graham, Megatron - not a bad alternative! Pettigrew is a Solid TE to keep those Outside LBs honest but their RedZone attack just became so much more versatile with the emergance of Fauria! You already had to worry about the Tron Fade or quick Slant, or u had to worry about the RBush slant outta the backfield, NOW ya gotta watch for Fauria with your OLB, which u formerly put on Bush or a Zone to Defend the Quick Slants... LOL! GOODLUCK Defending this RZ OFF! Their DEF isn't half bad either! 2 MONSTERS Inside to stuff the already banged up Dallas Rushing Attack & athletic OLB to help follow Jason Witten around... I Love these Matchups for Detroit, the only OBVIOUS Mismatches are Cowboys Super Good X & Y Wide Receivers, but they'll game-plan for that... hopefully! (Laying 3 Units)
