Who are y'all going with tomorrow? I just put in a non-dangerous parlay with Rams, Chiefs and 49ers to win ML -- comes out to 1.86x. I'm feeling pretty decent about it, but you never know of course. There's usually at least 1 good upset every week.

I have a feeling the Rams might disappoint you. WAS were poor in their last games after that surprising win in week 1 against the Eagles, but Haskins was benched and Allen will take over, who has done very well in his first games with Carolina. QB change (if not for injury) always gives a little push and motivation to teams. On top of that WAS will have Young back today as it seems and Rams already struggled against a weaker Giants defense last week. Not advising a bet on WAS, but if this parlay fails, it will be due to the Rams laying an egg imo

I am trying my luck with Houston -6 today. Texans had a bad start, but against good opposition (Ravens, Chiefs, Steelers, Vikings), so being 0-4 looks worse than it actually is. Nevertheless O'Brien had to leave and they can start all over, pretending they are 0-0. Rumours say that he lost the locker room and a new head coach (although only interim) can do wonders in such cases. Jags are and were a bit so and so, but last two games weren't very convincing against CIN/MIA and both resulted in losses. They are just not healthy right now and their struggling defense will be even weaker with Allen out, Henderson most likely out and Jack not at 100%. This is a divisional matchup, so high-ish HC's are always a bit meh, but JAX defense was already shitty before and is now missing very important players on top.

The Raiders are less than minutes away from pulling off the biggest upset of the season.  I almost predicted this after KC's first possession, they seem off a bit.  I don't really have a dog in the fight, but I'm still holding a grudge against the Chiefs from February.  

Go Raiders? 

Told ya so, perfect 3/3 on the day including the prop bet with Murray and Hopkins, hell yeah!

I think i'm going to skip the rest of the games and walk away clean, even though i wanted to put something on the Vikings, they got a win last week, Cook with 2TDs and Seahawks pass defense is really bad, Thielen and Justin Jefferson are primed to get big numbers imo.

This was the game that i watched, Raiders clamped the Chiefs in the second half, they couldn't get anything on offense, Mahomes with first inteception of the season. Impressed with Gruden chosing to go on 4th and 1 being 8pts ahead with 2 minutes left and Chiefs no timeouts...this could have backfired badly if they didn't get Carr's QB sneak...but it worked.

Not looking peachy for 49ers either, Garoppolo with 2 interceptions down 23pts...let's see if they can make a comeback.

Garoffalo looking absolutely skeevy.

Man, what a blowout. 2 of my "easy picks" were total upsets. I think for my next pick I'll come up with something and then pick the opposite. Either that or hire a monkey to throw darts at a board, one or the other.



Turns out Rams were my only W, lol.

I watched that game end to end, what a terrible bunch of teams in the nfc east.  This year might be the worst division of all time.  I mean the eagles, washington, giants and cowboys (especially now).  Throw in the jets and ypu can argue those are the worst 5 teams in the league and 4 from one division.  Do we get to see a 6-10 team win the division and get a home field playoff game  

Just when you think things cannot get even worse for the NFC East they did, now the Jets are on another level and I could see them going 0-16, that is how bad they are, but the fact there is not a single good team on the NFC East should be worrying, one of those teams is going to be on the post-season and will get home field advantage, I really think such thing will lead to a change in the rules since it is likely that despite the additional playoff spot a good team will be left out of the playoffs.

Do you think we have seen the last of Dak on Dallas? The guy has no contract and is playing under the franchise tag, that kind of injury will take a lot of time to heal and maybe he is not going to be ready for the beginning of the next season and we will not know if he will ever be the same, are the Dallas Cowboys going to tag him again? Or if they offer him a contract is it going to be as good as what they offered on the off-season?

Dak was playing hardball and wanted a big contract and I find unlikely he is going to find that on Dallas and if Dalton plays good football then Dak becomes spendable, and while some were impressed by his numbers the truth is that a great deal of those numbers can be explained away by the opposite team having such a huge lead over the Cowboys they just played prevent defence allowing Dak to accumulate a lot of yards on the last quarter of those games.

It worked for Gruden, not for Zimmer, bro just fucking kick the field goal, you up 5 points with 2 minutes left SEA with only 1 timeout remaining, they gotta score and convert on a 2pt and you still in the game. I don't know i would never go for it, dumb way to lose the game imo.

As for the game tonight, i initially had Chargers to cover their spread, not feeling it anymore, going for Saints ml + Kamara 1+TD and Murray 30+ rush yards, total odds 2.04

edit; fuck you Zimmer

Kittle and Aiyuk cost me my perfect 4-0 record with 15.8 combined points, i can only imagine what it's like for the fantasy managers who had 49ers def with -2pts which is week 5 worst so far.  

MNF starts in an hour. I went with the Chargers handicap (+7.5) since all of their losses were pretty close and it's hard to trust the Saints to cover after they've let me down against the Raiders last time. Imo this should be more of a close game since both teams are missing some of their players right?

The red rocket isn't going to be the next dallas quarterback even if he plays well.  Dak is their guy.  It should be a 6 month recovery from that injury.  There is no better option for Dallas i think so long as he comes back he will come back to a big deal.  If they tagged him again it would be for $40mil plus for the one season (i think upwards of $50mil).  Dalton isn't the answer here.
