I missed the first half of game as I took a nap and forgot to wake up in time to place my bets, but I wish I had for this Bears game. As much as the Bears suck, I knew with the Texans being down both Will Fuller and Brandon Cooks that they would struggle. Now I definitely didn't think it would be this bad however.

The only second half game I'm really feeling right now is the Steelers over Buffalo at +2. Thoughts on this game?

Steering clear of this game. Kc and the giants under is on track but somehow the giants will screw the under 😆. If I had to take anyone I'd probably take the bills in that game. Steelers have looked shaky and their run game sucks. Good thing I have Connor in ff 😒

I should have checked back here after placing my bet for the Steelers. You're right, they really are starting to struggle quite a bit. I figured since they had James Conner back, that there running game would be back up to "snuff" and they'd get back on track, but of course that certainly wasn't the case.

Interesting game tonight. Baltimore at -3.5 is pretty enticing. Though the Browns have pretty pretty solid so far this year.

What do we see for tonight? Browns or Ravens?

I think I may do something like Browns +6.5

Earlier I really liked them for an underdog win but I'm afraid Lamar will walk (possibly literally) all over their defense.

I'm going with the Browns. They've been playing better ball the last few weeks, and I really think they'll be in the playoffs this year. After the Steeler's loss last night, they have a good chance to win the division, and this game is a must if they want to do that.

It's a far bigger "must" for Ravens though - to keep their playoff chances alive.

I'd lean Ravens but this year all bets are off and I'm not going to bet until next season when al this Covid shit should be behind us.

Can anyone tell me why I repeatly bet the damn Jets?
Of course not the moneyline but I took the spread this time all the way up to +17, because I thought:
Hey they will lose this for sure, but they should be able to put at least a couple of points...

Oh my was I wrong...
Jets got destroyed, Jets have made it (finally) to my Do not Bet List.

OT: I need to rewatch that movie, such a classic! Cheesy

Yes, they burned me one too many times now and I will not bet on them anymore this season Wink

It appears that there might be a stronger argument for Josh Allen to be the NFL regular season's MVP after watching the game. Last year I predicted Lamar. I will declare myself bitcointalk.org's regular season MVP futures whisperer if it is really Allen for this season hehehe.

I passed on all the early games, I focused on pissing away my money towards the EPL clusterfuck matches.

So, in an effort to keep my losing streak snowballing away my meager seasonal gains, I came up with this roll of the dice:

ETA: At half-time Saints: 0, Eagles: 17 Shocked

I came up with a stupid 3-team parlay, Bucs ml + Packers ml + Titans ml for just over 2x total odds.
Not feeling great about it, Bucs have a poor home record of 3-3 and are coming off two straight losses, Packers can always fuck things up when you least expect.

I have a very similar parlay with the Bucs, Titans and Chiefs then planning to take Jets spread for the next set of games now that the spread is moving in Seahawks favor from 13.5 to 16.5.

I'm tempted to add the Cardinals but i'm having some second thoughts so I skipped it. Cheesy

I'm more excited about the late matchup between Bills and Steelers, i think it's going to be a great game, perhaps low scoring, Bills can clinch a playoffs berth if they win and Dolphins lose, Steelers will be second in AFC (just one game ahead of BUF) if they lose and Chiefs win, kinda rooting for that to happen.

Tennessee @ -7

It looks the obvious pick, but I am not that confident. Jaguars have 2 divisional matchups left (today and week 17 @Colts) and they can win one more game without losing their #2 pick. They are not in tanking mode like the Jets, but aren't too unhappy when losing imo. I watched them at Vikings last week and they are better than their record suggests; Glennon is doing a good job. Jags will play this one super motivated I think and apart from the blowout against the Steelers, they kept their last games close, losing only by 2/4/2/3 against ok-ish opposition with Texans/Packers/Browns/Vikings. Now looking at the H2H, which is always a bit meh tbf, the Titans would have beaten this HC only once the last 9 years when playing @Jacksonville, even losing 6 times SU. Earlier this season it ended 33-30 at TEN.

I am not saying this is a bad pick, because in the end I don't know as well nor do the teams Grin

Just some general remarks, good luck

Will not have any pre-match bets today as it seems Roll Eyes

I like the Giants ML, the over in Raiders game and Bills ML, but will look for better odds/lines inplay.

As for the Chiefs game, I think Miami could even win this, but only if they win the TO battle and their defense/ST helping with scoring a TD. Or two.

Have I mentioned how much I hate Cam?

Hehehehe who will not be the Patriot's quarterback on 2021?

Immediately I like the following for Sunday, but I'm gonna think a bit deeper about it before placing a bet.

Cleveland +2.5
Washington +3
Miami +7
Tennessee -7

Is the defense of the Dolphins good enough to cover the spread? I have not yet checked the list of injuries for the Chiefs, however, I am very surprised on why this is only -7 for them. Should it not be more than -13.5?

13.5 is definately too high. I was expecting at least 7.5 or 8. The dolphins are pretty good and their defense is legit. Have probably one of the best corners to cover hill. I'm just banking on Tua making a rookie mistake somewhere in the game enough for kc to win decently

I narrowed my list of 4 games down to one game that looks a lot better than the rest, and that is:

Tennessee @ -7

I put in a decent size bet for my standards on this one. Besides the fact that the Titans are 58% more likely to cover the spread than the Jags, this is a must-win game for Tennessee whereas Jags are out completely. They already got their one win so they're not winless for the season, now they're done.

Titans will be ramping it up just a bit to secure the V. Let's hope its by more than 7 points. I don't like Tannehill generally speaking but when you look at what's on the other side of the equation, he's perfect for the situation.

Yeah I like kc -7 all day on this one. I will take KC anyday versus a team throwing out a rookie qb. 1 or 2 mistakes is all it takes before this is a blowout. Also like the cowboys game under. One of these teams is definately going to throw out a stinker just don't know which one. Those are my 2 games I like this week. I like Seattle too. Think they get laser focused and smoke the jets after taking one on the chin from the giants. Can see that game being 37-13 or something stupid like that.

Kc -7
Cowboys/bengles under 43
Seattle -13

Those are my 3 this week
