Looks like the flu or something could be going around with the Lions.

Fuck it I'm not betting this game. I'll still root for the Lions.

Dont outthink yourself man, you were loving the lions since the lookahead if my memory serves me right. (honestly might be another poster and I’m too lazy to look back) A few Defensive players sitting out practice with an illness wouldn’t stop me from taking the Lions ML here. Theyre not exactly known for their defense and they are not playing anything close to resembling a quality offense 

@philschnaars

 Yup no more gummies for me tonight, most definitely had you confused with someone else that was loving the lions 

@philschnaars

 That's OK, JDD is your guy. Sharp dude 

Here's a good read. The Lions D has been smoking recently. 

And some x's n o's stuff about Goff.

Very early but maybe the 49ers really are this good? Lil Shanny is only 2 games over .500 in his career with these guys so I always have more skepticism than most concerning this team. We shall see.

@Getty3

 They've been over using cmc last 2 games imo, dude is going to wear down.

Purdy just threw a would be interception as I write this.

@undermysac

 I'm watching the game with my son and he says "Does McCaffrey have to be involved in every play?" 

It's not like he's been bulletproof in his career. Has missed plenty of time to injury. Of course when given the chance Lil Shanny ran Gore, Breida, Mostert, and Mitchell into the ground as well. Difference is you're paying CM like a prince not a pauper like the other guys.

@Getty3

 Yes good point.

This 1H could of been much closer. The turnover luck on the last 2 possessions was unpredictable. Dropped pic for Seattle, then they lost a fumble on a well called play.

Hoping I don't fall asleep the 2H if the game doesn't give me reason to.

Couple bad bounces, fumble, and a dropped int 

game should be closer. 
Not complaining. Parlayed the niner ML with cincy ML…..but I was so close to grabbing the 3.5 with Seattle. I laid off cause it went to 3.  So far niners backers little lucky. I’m ok with that. 
hit Chattanooga. Should have bet nooga ML. Bad line. 
Also on Santa Clara -1. 

Yea the eye lids are all of a sudden getting heavy. 

My Seahawks futures are smoldering, guess the Jimmy G injury got me excited at the time

Purdy seems to have a lot of time back there. Good line. Every time I pick up my head from poker table it looks like he’s flat footed comfy in the pocket. 

And the pelicans. On the pelicans -1. The guy on the radio talked me into it on the way to play poker. 
1230 the gambler. 
im sure I’ve thrown more money at worse ideas. 

 well the better team won and covered. Like they say D travels. 

@Biscuiteater1

 It has to be the reason. 

Which reminds me that a bunch of sharps were on the Browns last week because of a mystery flu to the Bengals. 

At least there is actual info on this bug

i was telling my buddy that last night in the last possession of the third qurater. i was really close to betting cmc under rushing yards but decided against it. i figured they would pull him after having a clear lead and if seattle struggled how they did, they would give him some rest. shanahan is relentless with these little guys and runs them into the ground. it's clear they can't absorb big hits and if he wants to keep cmc healthy, he's going to have to utilize some better passing options to the likes of kittle or jennings. you think he would learn from history and how he runs plays to stop using cmc when it's not necessary, but nope. my thoughts exactly on the topic, though. that's how bad accidents happen and they cannot afford another bad accident

@OlDirtyBaztid

 They gave up 3 picks in 2023, and 1 in 2024 for cmc. Two 2nds, a 3rd and 4th. All rounds where you can pick a good RB.

If cmc gets hurt before the playoffs, the effects will be residual 

And let's not forget that they gave up the barn for Lance

Zach Wilson the starter for the Jets...

Zach Wilson the starter for the Jets...

He sucks....line will go back to the Lions being 

the favorite...

Now Lions -1.5.....

He really does suck.  Saleh probably waited as long as he could to make that switch.  Imagine trying to decide between a guy who visibly looks like he is just collecting a check, and a guy that you would not trust to drive your car to the store and back for milk and bread.  

I could care less which player is at QB......I would still bet the Lions.   

@OlDirtyBaztid

 ODB.....could you have bet Nooga any quicker yesterday? lol

I swear I looked at the line on espn website as I was making my short list, and espn sometimes gets the line backwards, so I stopped in the middle of the list and double checked it on my books.

I stopped everything and bet it before they changed their minds lol.  

Gotta love college hoops.  363 ways twice a week for them to mess up a game.
