NFL Week #6 Recap

Some quick takes from this past week of pro football action:

1) Best bets were 2-3. this week.  Gambling Rule #14:  No excuses - play like a champ, BUT losing by 0.5 points on two separate games sure hurts.  Easily could have been a nice profitable 4-1 week, but I guess we could have been 1-4 if Big Ben doesn't throw a late TD to cover the 14 against the Browns. 

2) Houston's defense is terrible.  They are only going to be able to win games by outscoring their opponents (see Exhibit A : vs Redskins during Week #2 or Exhibit B : vs KC in Week #6 as classic examples).  Don't think we can really trust them ATS for the rest of the season, but if the Texans are playing mediocre defenses we will have a leaning towards the OVER.

3) KC is good this year.  More to come tomorrow about this topic.

4) Detriot is 5-1 against the spread this year, with a 1-5 SU record.  They will be getting healthy after a bye and already looking at them for Week #8 in two weeks against the Redskins - especially if the Redskins win next week.
