Did anyone hear the crosstalk between Spiegel and Bernstein today when Speigel called him a Cynical Snarky Jag for ripping on people for drawing motivation from the Pagano speech to the Colts? It's on the podcast on the website, good stuff.

 

Bernstein became too much for me a few years ago. Sees he acts that way just to get a rise from people but starting to believe its really him.

I don't listen to sports talk anymore. Had to quit. Drove me nuts. Got Sirius in my new car and love it.

This is perhaps the ugliest slate of games from a gambling perspective that I can remember in years.

 

There are competing angles for almost every game where I can see either team covering...usually, I feel pretty confident about 5 or 6 games.

 

This week is a freaking mess.

Yeah it is.

 

 

I was thinking about the Bengals but I hate taking teams with losing records on the road as favorites. And they are coming off a huge home win and now playing a crap team on the road. Plus I dont think the Chiefs have quit on the season yet.

 

 

There are just too many games today where you cant trust the teams that you'd like to take. Usually when I feel like this its either a struggle break .500 or I implode big time.

 

 

Well against my better judgement, I think I'll go small on the Bengals and see how that unfolds before deciding if I want to call it a day or not for the afternoon games.

 

 

Small play on Cincy for me

I just made a small play on a parlay, because I am not willing to risk much money today.

 

In that parlay, I did take the Bungles as well...

 

There are a few very big public plays, which I actually like, but that I am scared off of for the most part due to how one-sided the action is. I usually consider that to be fairly irrelevant, but the bloodbath the books have been taking recently have a lot of folks a bit spooked here in Vegas. But I agree with you, I can't trust the Raiders against the Saints without at least getting 7.5. I can't trust the Lions only getting 3 with how stagnant their offense has been this year. Don't trust Washington or Philly. Took the Cowboys -7, even though the sharps have been playing up the Browns all week. But I think Hayden is out. Was tempted to take Atlanta, as I think they will cover the 10, but this is a bit of a bad spot for them. Although Mike Smith is something like 17-3 ATS after a loss. I took your Bucs, despite the sharps playing Carolina, because I think that offense continues to roll today. Ick, just so many yuck games this week.

 

Hopefully next week will be better.

5 out of the Bears first 10 games were in primetime. I wonder if thats some kind of record. Im not a fan of that many night games personally.

 

I don't mind the Sunday night games so much because I usually watch that game anyway, but I don't like all the Monday and Thursday games.

The Jaguars and Chad Henne are picking the Texans defense apart. Were the Bears just that bad on offense last week or did the Texans regress horribly?

 

Is it raining, windy, and 40 degrees? I think the bears texans would have looked much different on a nice day. I'm not saying the bears win, but it would be a different game than 13-6

This is the Jaguars we're talking about here though.

 

I understand that the weather sucked last week, but the Texans defense is playing like absolute s*** this week. They looked great last week.

The Jaguars got punked by the Bears at home and gave Green Bay a game in Lambeau. Not much makes sense about the Jaguars, plus that screams trap game after the Bears
