First things first, thanks for dropping by!
Just a quick round up of games that I will have action on this weekend. A more in-depth look at these match-ups will be
Chiefs vs. Buccaneers
Chiefs -3
Chiefs are on a roll offensively and are improving defensively, the trip to Tampa shouldn't hinder this. My action is already on the Chiefs
Jets vs. Bills
Jets -3
Jets showed significant improvement last week against a formidable passing defense in the Dolphins. Look for more production from the receivers against a weaker corner package and continued success on the ground. Remember, Miami had really good stats against the rush before they played the Jets as well.
Eagles vs. Steelers
Eagles -0
Steelers are going to be the Eagles toughest opponent to date. That being said, the Eagles as a pick-em is a no brainer. Tight game, probably. Eagles first loss, not likely.
Saints vs. Chargers
Chargers -6.5
The Saints are terrible against the spread, are streaky in general (being polite about it) and are coming off a bye. San Diego is playing good football, injuries to running backs LaDainian Tomlinson and Jesse Chatman not withstanding, another good outing is on the horizon for the Chargers at home.
Seahawks vs. 49ers
Seahawks -7
Seattle got some momentum going against Carolina last week. Although they did fail to cover. They are desperate for a big win and San Fransisco is a good looking place for exactly that. The 49ers gave up 34 points to the Seahawks when they met up at Qwest Field, it's not going to be any prettier in the Bay. San Fransisco may not get shut-out but they could very easily lose by 12-14 points.
Texans vs. Broncos
Texans +7
The Broncos lackluster offense and underachieving defense has drop two games in a row that they should have won, this trend won't continue. The Texans have played over and above what was expected of them this season. Houston will probably see somewhat of a “Bubble Bursting” when they head to Mile High (ok, Invesco) Stadium. All the same, they will stay in the game for four quarters and it ends within 3 points or so. No money line bet this week, take the points.
Browns vs. Ravens
Under 35.5
Ravens post about 18 points a game, Browns right at 21. Baltimore has the fewest points allowed, 14 and the Browns are just a notch below that mark at 17. Baltimore has a good rushing game whereas Cleveland has a porous rushing defense. Baltimore keeps the game on the ground and for good reason. The Ravens have the worst passing game in town, while Cleveland has no game whatsoever. Time clock eating runs and a lot of punting will take place. Not sure if this game is worth action or not yet. If it is, it's in the Under.
