Alrighty then, well….lets see if the run of the underdog will hold up again this week. Something's gotta give, cuz there are some rough and tumble spreads this week.
Are there ever any easy spreads any week???? As Herm Edwards said one time, "We gamble to win the bet!!!........Hellllloooooo!?!?!?!? Uhh, uhhmm uhhhh ahhhh this whole conversation bothers me!!" There's never any easy bets, we're gambling here folks!!! To the degenerate-mobile!
STL +8.5 vs. SD
San Diego's special teams are atrocious, but St. Louis is going through the 1988 Dallas Cowboy right of passage where they are in a rebuilding phase where they will get the tar beat out of them no matter how good they are or how much talent/potential they have. But this is still a collision of 2 ugly's, and 8.5 is too much for either team to win by. Rams cover.
HOU -4.5 vs. KC
Every bone in my body tells me to bet KC….hard!!!! But this hunch is superseded by the borderline Law of Costanza that applies to the Houston Texans and my betting on them. First off, I've laid off betting on Texans games since Week 1, but regardless of whether I bet for or against or feel that they will or won't cover, the Texans do the exact opposite. So since I think KC will win this game, and that Houston will tank, the Law of Costanza states that the opposite will happen. Unfortunately Houston covers. Cohhhh-stan-zaahh!!!
BAL +3 @ NE
I'm not a real big fan of Baltimore, but I respect these old dogs. Plus they've had a harder schedule then the Pats and the Pats are reeling from their roster changes from trading Maroney to trading Moss the Baby. When the Big Hoodie is revamping his master plan mid-season, then the Pats are in a world of hurt.
TB +4.5 vs. Nawlins
As much respect I have for The Easy Bree-zy, and that they can't tank 2 straight games, the notion of a Super Bowl Hangover supersedes the East Bree-zy respeck. Plus, this has to be the coming out party for
under-rated QB, Josh Freeman and the under-valued Bucs.
PHI -3 vs. ATL
This can go either way. And the Vick Principle still rings true even if he doesn't play. And that is, stay away. I'm going to give the Eagles one more week to scout to see if I can get a hold of where they're coming from. The home field barrage of batteries and Micheal Irvin broken-neck-boo's should reign supreme over the inconsistent Yippe Ki-yay Mr. Falcons!!
DET +10 @ NYG
LOCK LOCK LOCK of the week!!!!!!!!!!!! Who cares about the new Meadowlands and the G-Men being at home. After watching full games of the Lions, the headlines read: "Lions actually pretty good". Their D-Line is sick, maybe even sicker then the G-Men's media-hyped D-Line and QB Shaun Hill actually doesn't suck. Up in the air whether Detroit will win this game, but they'll keep it close either way, and 10 points is a rare gift from the handicappers. I even bet a rare 2 units on the Lions for this one.
CLE +13.5 @ PIT
Cleveland not as shitty as people think. Actually, they are pretty well coached. Not nearly as well coached as the Steel Curtain. But this is a divisional game and 2 touch downs is a bit too much still. But either way, I'm staying away from this game. The return of Big Ben Rothless-corner-a-co-ed-er is too much of an unpredictable variable. He can either kill it on Sunday or flop. Stayin' away.
CHI -6.5 vs. SEA
Seattle is downright atrocious on the road. Consider this the number 2 gift from the handicappers this week.
DEN +3 vs. NYJ
NYJ are a fraud. Denver is rebuilding. And the only constant is the Mile High. Whether it's the altitude, no matter how shitty a Bronco's may be, the Mile High advantage should prevail or the inconsistent Jets and Fraudchise.
OAK +6.5 vs. SF
Gift #3 from the handicappers. Alex Smith is so bad at QB, that he is venturing into JaFarcus Russell territory!!!!!!!!! And Oakland W's have been due to capitalizing off takeaways which JaAlex Smith will giveth to the Raiders!!!
MIN -1.5 vs. DAL
2 desperate OVER-VALUED teams. Going with the home team, just cuz.
IND -3 @ WAS
Although Peyton covered last week (barely) vs. KC, he won't have 2 straight sub-par weeks in a row, and Washington can pull 2 W's outta their bum in consecutive weeks
TEN -3 @ JAX
Chris Johnson bust-out game the Monday Nighter!!!
PS. This Saturday…..Doc Halladay vs. Lincicum in Game of the NLCS. How is the run total not set at 0.5!?!?!? I'm taking under 6.0 runs this Saturday.
CrazyDavo Out!!!
