I will post my picks in this thread. Feel free to contribute your own picks, laugh at mine or discuss any and all betting topics. This weeks lines are sharp, but I believe I have found some value:
Washington Football Team +6 vs Philly- Philly is banged up like usual, and will probably look to tread water until they get healthy. Their offensive line is banged up, and Washington D line is a top unit in the league. I have major concerns if Washington can score… but this is going to be a “kitchen sink” game for Riverboat Ron and Del rio. I believe they will pull out all the stops to win this game. Under is also a good play IMO. 13-10 Eagles win. Football team covers.
Saints -3.5 vs Tampa- Saints are loaded on both sides of the ball, there have been few personel or coaching changes. The Bucs have a new 40+ year old QB, a new TE who was in the WWE last year, and didn’t get a preseason. The game is going to be moving pretty quickly for Brady and the Bucs, on the fast track in New Orleans. I think Tampa will be good, but I fully expect the Saints to “welcome” Tom Brady to the division with a beat down. Peyton Mannings Broncos started 2-3 in his first year, but finished 13-3. I can see a similar start from the Bucs here. I absolutely love this play and am also taking Saints on alternate spreads of -6.5 and -9.5. Bucs will get be able to get their sea legs next game at home against Carolina, and will also get another crack at the Saints later in the season.
Arizona -6.5 vs Washington. I do not care how Washington looked last week. I bet them last week and they did what i expected them to. I expect them to get blown out against the Cards.
2 team 6 point teaser: Arizona and GB.
21 year old Matthew Wolff takes a 2 shot lead into the final round of the US open. Looking to become the youngest major winner since tiger.
Another NFL sweep yesterday. I am taking a punt tonight on Taysom Hill to score a TD at +450 odds. With Michael Thomas out Payton will be digging deep into his bag of tricks.
