NFL...Bets

games I stayed away from religiously today

1)  Baltimore/Jaguars in London England

Why ::confused::  Jags always play well in London and I never trusted that Ravens side.  they beat 2 crap sides to start the year and they went all in on them. 

I refused to..largely because I don't trust Joe Flacco as a QB.  then again I saw the Ravens side during the preseason, checked out their roster and I don't think it is very good

Cleveland/Indiana. 
there is no way that game can be accurately sorted out.  the best guess to make would be to go with the home side, hoping home field advantage will carry the day

Atlanta/Detroit

Atlanta is very good but Detroit appears to have put together a good  side..how good I don't know.  I will after the game today

games that could be tricky

Houston at New England:  the point spread/NE by 14.5

I don't think New England can beat Houston by that many points.  they are likely to win but by less points

Oakland at Washington:  Washington's offense and Oakland's defense

Washington at home with a decent offense against Oakland on the road with a suspect defense.  the mitigating factors:  Oakland's offense is a powerhouse, plus the Washington QB is hardly clutch in the clutch time.

Tricky game shaped up here

Miami at the Jets: The Jets are Tanking but this is Miami - a hated rival.
there are teams in the NFL when they play its war..tuff, hard rivalries, longstanding!  one of the most intense, if not the most intense of NFL rivalries is this one right here...Miami/Jets  it is actually a 3-way rivalry when you add the Buffalo Bills.

when these 3 teams play each toss everything out the window and watch them play..don't bet unless in one year one of those teams is so superior that they will beat the other 2.

I expect Miami will bet the Jets today but not by much.  toss the point spread or don't bet the game

New Orleans Saints at Carolina Panthers;  ridiculous sides really

The Saints defense is porous
the Saints play Carolina hard always
the Saints have a great QB who can win a game on his own

the Panthers as usual have a bad offensive line that cant protect its QB..
but can the Saints bad defense take advantage

Cam Newton of the Panthers is still banged-up and nowhere near his best
the Panthers offense has lost for the season Newtons best target Greg Olsen

so how to address this game then..go on home field ::confused::
Panthers then..except I left out the  game.  no bet.  I don't have a clue which side will come to play

Tampa Bay is getting killed.  I had some faith in them.  if this keeps up they will spoil 2 tickets I bet

the last ticket a 5 gamer...of all teams killing me now is Pittsburgh.  something about Pittsburgh being on the road and that Chicago may play well at home was nagging in the back of my mind so I ignored it.

I am right everywhere but Pitts/Chicago...Tampa Bar/Vikings

and look!  New Orleans are beating the hell out of Carolina...24 to 6

I knew that game would be poison

I am kneeling  for FoosBall
