CD Newsletter Week 2

This weeks CD newsletter is brought to you by Burger King. If you can't have it your way , Don't eat it. I got the line on Monday , so it will move up and down like the stock market... I didn't get a chance to proof read it either... on to the Newsletter..

Lions @ Bills -3.5 O/U 53.5

The Lions barely escape the swamp with their tails between their legs. How Saints fan let them win is beyond me. The Bills went toe to toe with the Texans until they put the game away in the last few minutes. The Defense Sack CJ in the last few seconds and recover the fumble to end the game. The Bills play a lot better at home, just ask the Raven's fan. The Lions and Bills only met two times in 2022 & 2024 where the Lions loss both games ( 25 – 28 , 42 – 48 ). The Lions Avg. 33 Pts. , Bills Avg. 38 pts. In the 3 games they met..Thursday's game are pretty hard to call. Bills win ( 27 – 24 )

Jaguars @ Broncos -2.5 O/U 43.5

The Broncos got spanked at Arrowhead on Monday Night. Are they playing flag football because they can't seem to tackle anybody. The Jaguar took the Brownies to the Shack and just whack em like whack a mole. They molested Watson all day long. There was nowhere for him to run and no where for him to hide. The Jaguars might run out of breath before the fourth Quarter in this high altitude. The Broncos Avg. 21 pts. , The Jaguars Avg. 21 a game L5 Yrs. Broncos win ( 27 – 13 )

Bengals @ Texans -2.5 O/U 47.5

The Bengals held off Bakers dozen in a high scoring affair to pick up a win. Now they have to travel to play a Texans ( C J ) who just gave the game away to the Bills. I don't trust a QB who can't perform and demand more than $60 million a year. CJ's mind is on the contract not on the game. That might cost the Texans dearly.These two only met once in 2023 where the Texans won 30 - 27. Texans win only if CJ can focus on the game ( 30 – 27 )

Steelers @ Patriots -5.5 O/U 43.5

The Steelers barely won at home against Atlanta's third string QB. The game would have been a lot closer if the Kicker made all of those FG. The Patriots lost to the Seahawks with a poor throw to the Endzone than ended with an INT for the Seahawks. The Patriots defense will give Mr.Rodgers a run for his money. I give the edge to the Patriots since they're playing at home. Steelers Avg. 17 Pts. , Patriots Avg. 17 pts. L5 yrs . Patriots Win ( 27 – 13 )

Browns @ Buccaneers -8.5 O/U 40.5

The Browns should have put in Sanders in the second half. That way you give the fans something to cheer about. They took a beating from the Jaguars and it wasn't even close. Now they travel to meet the Bakers dozen who lost a disappointing game. The Bucs will have a field day with Watson under center. Baker will be baking a pound cake on Sunday.These two met in 2022 where the Browns won 23 -17 . Bucss win ( 35 - 13)

Panther @ Falcons -1.5 O/U 44

The Panthers went toe to toe with the Bears until the 4Q where they fell and can't get back up again. The Falcon's put up a fight again Mr.Rodgers and company, but lost at the end. The kicker really screwed them with those missed FG's. These 2 are no strangers to each other. They meet twice a year and they know each other pretty well. I give the edge to the Falcons at home. The Panthers Avg. 24 Pts. , Falcons Avg. 22 pts. L 5 yrs.The Falcons Win ( 27 – 23 )

Saints @ Ravens -8.5 O/U 48.5

The Saints almost beat the Lions at home if they would have converted the 2 point. That's good for a team who is still rebuilding to go toe to toe with one of the high scoring team in the league. The Ravens let the Colts take an early lead and then just ran them over without looking back. Where is Saints Fan to talk crap to Shrimp? These two met in 2022 where they exchange blows, Ravens won 27-13 . The Ravens win here also ( 38 – 17 )

Vikings @ Bears -5.5 O/U 48.5

The Vikings played a pretty close game with the Packers for 3 Quarters and then the Vikings defense came alive and swallowed up Love and spit him out like a piece of gum. Murray got hurt on a running play , But Wentz came in and didn't look back. The Bears put on a clinic against Carolina on Sunday. Nobody seen that coming. Sac is on cloud nine serenading to Caleb's Jersey all night long. All Night Long , All night by Lionel Richie.

Vikings Avg. 24 pts , Bears Avg. 17 pts. A game L5 yrs. Vikings win ( 24 – 21)

Packers @ Jets +4.5 O/U 43.5

The Packers look to rebound from a tough loss at the hands of the Vikings. They should have an easier time with the Jets who beat the Titans at home. I didn't watch this game, C'mon man. Do you really think I would watch this boring game? Those who watched can comment on it. These 2 met once in 2022 where the Jets won 27-10. This time the Packers win ( 27 – 13 )

Eagles @ Titans +7 O/U 40.5

The Eagles should have lost the game and Yes , I bet on the Eagles to cover. They let the Redskin back in the game after leading at half time. Hurts got pressure so many times in the 4 That he was running for his life on every single play. The Titans lost to the lowly Jets. What did you expect from this team? They might have a shot if they can pressure Hurts enough time to create some turnovers. Eagles win ( 27 – 14 )

Raiders @ Chargers -7 O/U 47.5

The Raiders actually won an opening game at home. Oh wait , it's against a rebuilding Dolphin's team. Sorry to get your hopes up ABN. Now if they were to win here against the Chargers who lost to the Cardinals at home. Wait , The Cardinals . How the F do you lose to a Briskett? Icon , you got a lot of explaining to do about your team. 7 points is a lot to give to a Raider's team that is riding high on something. Bolts win ( 23 – 21 )

Redskins @ Cowboys -4.5 O/U 50.5

The Redskin came alive in the fourth Quarter , but came up short against the Eagles . They gave Hurts all that he can handle , but their Offense let them down. Now they head to the Big “ D “ to play with the Girls. I wasn't really watching the game as much as I was watching the cheerleaders. All I see was yellow flag tossing around. Dumb ,stupid penalties. And Yes they cost me my Over bet.. The coach better clean this up or lose another game. Should be a high scoring game considering the line. Cowboys Win ( 33 - 30 )

Seahawks @ Cardinals +5.5 O/U 43.5

The Seahawks held off the Patriots in the fourth Quarters to snatch a win. They got lucky , Maye wasn't suppose to throw that pass. Now they go and meet the Cardinals who surprisingly beat the Chargers on the road. These two are no strangers to each other. They know each other very well. Can the Cardinals can beat the Defending Champs who is without Darnold? Seahawks Avg. 25 pts , Cardinal Avg. 18 pts. L5 Yrs. Seahawks win ( 27 - 18 )

Dolphins @ 49ers -13 O/U 46

The Dolphins are in a rebuilding mode since they got rid off most of their best players.They lost to the Raiders even though they did put up a good effort. They'll lose more games before the end of the season.The 49ers put a beat down on the Rams in the land down under. They should have an easier time back home against the Dolphin squad. The only thing I'm worried about is they run the clock out when they get a lead to make this a low scoring game. 49ers win ( 28 – 13 )

Giants @ Rams -8.5 O/U 49.5

The Giants look pretty impressive against the Cowboys at home on primetime.Harbaugh got a good QB and RB to work with this season. Let's see if he calls the same plays as he did in Baltimore that got him Fired.I know BR is probably dead drunk from celebrating his teams victory. The Rams not only lost the game to the Niners , but they also lost Myles Garrett to injury. They expect him to return in week 6 . If the Giant's offense can exploit the Ram's defense without Myles , they can win. The lines says a different story. That's too much points to give to the Giants. These two met in 2020 & 2023 where they each won a game. I'll go with the Giant plus the points on the road. Rams win ( 28 – 24 ) .

That's all folks . Enjoy the Game    

@Cyrax

 Thanks for taking the time, way to Knock it out,nice write ups  

A pick 6 was the difference in Pitt, that and a lousy QB for Atlanta.Dont love the Pats but like'm a whole lot here. 

Ravens will probably be down 2 receivers, now I could be wrong about Flowers.I don't think we will be able to run willy nilly against Saints. 

Would like to hear Sac's take on Bears.I think they rough up Wentzel and do enough for the win if not the cover. Probably gonna lay a buck on them in short order if 5' is not juiced.

Thank you Cyrax for keeping the CD tradition alive. Great write ups

@idle_havoc

@Cyrax

 Nice work gl this week

@kidd22

 Nice work last week

@Biscuiteater1

 Curious if we see Wentz or if kyler gets cleared 

@dubz4dummyz

 I'm thinking he starts mainly because it was his 1st one but honestly i'm really starting to like the Bears regardless who starts.  

Hey hey, you guys are still here

Awesome job Cy 

Biscuit, all I can tell you is that the Bears should be on "auto over" every game.

The offense is a machine. Everyone blocks their ass off on all run plays. Wr's are pancake-ing LB's and DE's. Great scheme.

Caleb is the best scrambling qb in the nfl. He has a pair of "young" Lamar legs. He has also surprised me with his accuracy in week 1.

If you guys didn't notice, and I've been yelling this all off season...the Bears defense is fucking awful. Shit d line, can't do anything against the run. Made Chuba look like Ladanian Tomlinson. They can't rush the passer. 

Here's some PFF grades from week 1 from the d line.

Montez Sweat 45(highest paid Bear)

Dayo Odeyingbo 47.4(2nd highest paid Bear)

Grady Jarrett 65

Kentavius Street 51.8

If you want to see worse grades, look at the Bears secondary. Told you that there was no reason for them to replace their safeties which was their strongest unit last year. It doesn't make sense. Surprisingly their best corner Jaylen Johnson had an awful game. To one up him, their other corner Tyrique Stevenson allowed a perfect passer rating.

Newly acquired LB Devin Bush posted a 56.4 pff rating. Check out this blitz....

Great ink from a Ravens fan.......

@undermysac

Have not verified but heard that over the course of the last 13 regular season games, that one Jacoby Briskett leads NFL in passing yardage.

Jordon love Bryce young then Lamar then the brisket 

I’ll add still can’t believe how well Brisket moved the ball vs Chargers we will see how Chargers are this weekend including brisket vs champs D 

They pounded the piss outta the Colts, no contest.

I don't think Danny Dimes is running rpo's anymore after his injury last year. He is beyond pedestrian when playing like a regular drop back passer.

 Their D cant stop a nose bleed....

So bad....
