There is one game I'm liking on Sunday and that is the Saints/Panthers game where I'm taking the Panthers to cover the +10 spread. I think the Panthers will bounce back after a terrible loss last week where I did back against them and I won with the Falcons covering.

I'm also going to take a point teaser instead of going with a regular parlay.

Panthers +15.5

Packers +10

Seahawks +8

Good luck everyone who decides to have a bet this Sunday.

I think he's going to loose the rest of the year. There seems to be no-one giving him the benefit of the doubt for anything like maybe responding to a racial slur or some other mitigating type circumstance....

Called it first.

Myles Garrett accuses Mason Rudolph of using a racial slur, which Rudolph denies | NFL Live
And now we need to give the benefit of the doubt to Rudolph, we know that many lawyers are not above lying when it comes to represent their clients and playing the race card is a very easy way to try to defend what Garrett did, unless evidence appears corroborating this information then we need to assume Rudolph is innocent, I have my doubts this actually happened because if it was true then Garrett would have revealed this information immediately as a justification for his behaviour after the game and he did not.

BTW your personal text is very fitting. Grin

Rudolph was fined $50k so I think they bought Garrett's accusation of it happening on the field.
Now if he was just mic'd up.

Who do you guys like for tomorrows games? Make your 50/50 call here and receive a meriting if its correct (and a shaming if its not! j.k.)

I put a few bits on Pittsburgh to cover -6.5 vs. Cincinnati. I think the Bengals might get one win before the end of the season, but this won't be the game.

2 more weeks before fantasy finals begin! I'm definitely in the running, last week I solidified first place in my division. Won't hurt to have one more W tho... Picking up Jameis Winston of TB in Week 8 really paid off dividends for my team. TB sucks overall as a team but has a great QB and wide receivers. They make up 3 of my 10 starters in any given week. Maybe they'll have a shot at making the playoffs next year if their defense can get it together.

I thought with Mack being injured Colts would need to throw the ball more...boy 39 carries lol. Milking that clock like champs.
My primary bet for O 4.5 TDs obviously didn't hit, despite 12-13 minutes left in the fourth. Hilton dropping every single pass!
Had a second bet for O 7.5 points in the 3rd, god bless that upright!  Cheesy

Well that was an easy win last night on the Colts to cover the spread in the 1st half and they also covered the spread for the full game. The Colts have always played well against the Texans but I wasn't too sure about the game so that is why I liked the 1st half spread better then the full game spread. I'm currently working through the upcoming games to see if there is any value and I hope to post my picks and a small parlay in the next day or two.

About the poll, like everyone else so far I voted for Seattle to win.

This is a very important game for both teams if Seattle wants to have a chance to win their division then they cannot afford to lose against Philadelphia since SF is about to begin a series of 3 very difficult games, and for Philadelphia this is a golden opportunity to tie Dallas at 6-5 if they can win and Dallas losses against NE.

I had no constructive input whatsoever to add in regards to tonight's game so i decided to.

Stay silent and be thought the fool rather than open my mouth and remove all doubt. Cheesy


Well this should add some interest to the Pats/Cowboys game. :d

@vella85. I will take the same bet on the Colts, +2.5 1st half hehe. I read an article that the Houston Texans have not won versus the Colts in 5 years. If they might win today, they might not cover the spread on the 1st half.

I think tonight's game is a tough one so I think the safest bet for me is to take the Colts to cover the spread in the 1st half which is currently +3 and I see some books have them at +2.5 as a lot of money came for the +3.
I'm also hopping on that Colts' spread since it already moved to +3.5 taking that half point just in case the lead is within a field goal. Skipping the totals for this match even though it went over last time most of their older meetings in Houston are mostly under.

The match on sunday between the Eagles is interesting, I like the odds they've given to the Seahawks I might get a few points or tease it out if the spread would stay the same.

Edit : The last play by the Texans was scary though I thought they'll try to score a field goal.

Can anyone please sell me on the Texans covering the spread -3.5 or O 46.5. At least that's where most people are putting their money tonight, and i'm not sold on either of the two. Hilton is expected to be back for Colts, and Fuller should play for Houston, two deep threat targets for Watson and Brissett but for some reason i'm unwilling to pick the over. For now, i have over 4.5 total touchdowns @1.56 (not much value here but i really like it). How do you see the game?

@wheelz1200. I like the 49'ers -3. I am gambling, this is versus Greenbay hehehe.

I also like Seattle +2.5, because Russ Wilson, everyone's MVP, is playing good and also the Ravens -3.5, but because Lamar Jackson, my MVP, is playing better hehe.

That's not bad picks.  I actually like all of those too.  SF around 3 points against anyone is as good a bet as any.  And russ should have fun aying against the eagle secondary, I expect them to win as well.  The NFC east this year is just flat out bad no matter who you are looking at...yes cowboys too

New poll up:

11/24  1:00 PM

[273] SEATTLE
[274] PHILADELPHIA

There's a relatively big range on the books for this one, from -1 to -3 Philadelphia. I'm gonna go with Seattle to win outright, though I won't be betting on it... I haven't been keeping up on the injuries of these players but Wentz has been underperforming, while Wilson (as mentioned in the previous comment) has been doing pretty well.

Pittsburgh really needs this game against the Bengals, who are winless... the spread for that one is only -6.5. I think I'm gonna take that one, based on on my theory about those who tend to cover, keep covering, and also those who need the game toward the end of the season tend to work harder for it. Bengals just need it so they don't end the season winless... which is somewhat motivating I suppose.

Other than that, not a whole lot of obvious picks this week. Then of course I'll be rooting for the Rams on Monday, but they are playing the #2 team in the AFC (after the Pats), so I won't be betting on that one.

Who does everyone like this week.  I like Oakland on the road at jets they should make work of them.  I like the patriots less than a td over dallas and I'm all over the ravens -3 against the rams on prime time this week.  Anything under a td for baltimore at this point I am on, lamar is almost unstoppable it's like he figured out a cheat code for the nfl lol.

I think you may have got them -- did you? I had Henry and Gordon. Henry hit his projected and Gordon was a bit shy of it, but I still managed to get the win, putting me firmly in 1st in my division... Definitely going to our playoffs at this point.

Nope, I was shy a bit more than I thought (1/2 PPR).
Bye's this week are killing both my teams, I'm third in one and 4th in the other.

I liked the Chiefs last night to win but stupid me went with the Chiefs to win the 1st quarter instead which was a bad choice after the Chargers took around 6 minutes off the clock to score a field goal. I knew then that my bet on this was unlikely to win and should of just went with the Chiefs at the ML. Anyway I had an okay night on the NBA and overall broke even for the night.
