Now the Week 7 Picks
Opening Kickoff Thursday Night Football (4-0 YTD)
Broncos at Cardinals +1.5 o/u 42.5
Ok…I don’t like this game. Almost nothing about it is interesting and apparently Thursday Night Football is back to being all around garbage. About the only way this game is remotely interesting is if one of these are your team and that’s about it. Probably the worst betting strategy on the planet (other than playing online blackjack) is to bet a game just to bet a game but I find myself in that situation right now. Never have I pretended to be a professional gambler or handicapper…so there’s no reason to start now so bet this piece of shit game we will! If you actually cared to to the analysis of this game (which I don’t) reviewing trends, Offensive & Defensive match-ups (which I didn’t) I would assume that the Broncos look better on paper. They have a decent run game and the Cards can’t seem to stop anything and Von Miller basically said he was going to “welcome” Josh Rosen to the NFL. I have the Broncos laying the points in the worst Prime Time Game of the year.
Broncos -1.5
Sunday Three & Out (5-4 YTD)
Titans at Chargers -6.5 o/u 45.5
This one was pretty simple. I like the Chargers at home laying the points. The Titans have a banged up QB in Mariota and they got shut out last week in a slugfest. The Chargers offense is starting to find some momentum and should be able to get the job done at home.
Chargers -6.5
Vikings at Jets +3.5 o/u 46.5
Im breaking my rule about betting Vikings games but the God Damn Jets are just not good. Yes they will be at home but the Vikings D should be able to handle the Jets with ease. Just remember, the Vikings have ruined more spreads and games when you least expect it (See Buffalo Bills) …so I’ll be buying the half point …Just in case
Vikings -3
Patriots at Bears +2.5 o/u 49
The Bears D is good…But the Patriots offense is better. If this was in Foxborough I would say this would be our Chip Shot and to bet the farm but on the road we’ll just keep it where its at. I would give the Bears a little more credit if they hadn’t just been carved up by Brock Osweiler and the Miami Dolphins. Pats tt 026.5 for the win..
Pats tt o 26.5
Chip Shot (0-3 YTD)
Rams at 49ers +9.5 o/u 52
Hopefully this isn’t a kiss of death but the Gurley and the Rams offense has look great all year and should continue to do so against the 49ers who just came off a “controversial” MNF match-up against Green Bay. Even if Richard Sherman can impact the passing game Todd Gurley will run him into yet another heart breaking loss. The Rams should score early and often and not to jinx it…but this should be yet another 3rd quarter cover and this thing should be put to bed early.
Rams tt o30.5
