I don't want to talk about it
Thursday's
Game
Denver
Broncos (+1.5) @ Houston
Texans: loss
(Line: Tuesday, 3:00am EST: TheGreek)
How
bad are the Broncos? On Thursday, they were horrendous.
Saturday's
Game
Cincinnati
Bengals (-8) @ San
Francisco 49ers: loss
(Line: Tuesday, 3:00am EST: TheGreek)
"The
bottom line is, the Bengals are bad, but can they be
this bad?" Let me replace my original answer to
this question "I don't think so" with "yes,
and actually, they are even worse than this bad, they
are brutal."
Sunday's
Games
Buffalo
Bills (+5.5) @ Cleveland
Browns: loss
(Line: Tuesday, 3:00am EST: TheGreek)
I'm
going to blame this game on the snow. 8-0, it was close
until the last minute, and obviously, the Bills always
had a chance, they just couldn't stop making snow angels
during key plays - damn kids.
Green
Bay Packers @ St.
Louis Rams (+10): loss
(Line: Tuesday, 3:00am EST: TheGreek)
Can
I blame this one on the snow? I felt smart when I saw
the score nearing halftime in this one. Then I felt
dumb when I saw the final tally.
Jacksonville
Jaguars (+4) @ Pittsburgh
Steelers: win
(Line: Tuesday, 3:00am EST: TheGreek)
"The
Jaguars are the better team. I saw a scouting site that
already has a mock NFL draft ready to go, and they said
the Jaguars are looking for a quarterback early - puh-lease!
David Garrard is everything this team has every wanted,
and everything they need for the future. He plays ball
control offense, is smart, and takes care of the football.
He is a threat to throw deep, hit outs, and run the
ball if need be. He's physical and fast. Perfect for
Jacksonville. The Jaguars are just playing inspired
football right now, and the Steelers have been brutal
the last four games or so. They didn't have a chance
last week, and while they will play better at home,
I still think they fall to the Jags this Sunday. This
should be a close game, and I think it will come down
to the wire, but I like the 4 points with one of the
best teams in football." Bingo - it's nice to win
one or two here and there.
New
York Jets @ New
England Patriots (-24): loss
(Line: Tuesday, 3:00am EST: TheGreek)
I
don't think the Jets are good enough to finish anywhere
close to the Patriots if Tom Brady doesn't have one
of his worst football games I can remember. He was wild,
his timing was off, and he didn't throw a touchdown
pass. After Kellen Clemens threw a pick-6 with his first
pass, I thought this was going to be one of those. I
was wrong, tricked all the way, and the Pats stayed
undefeated but lost ATS again.
Indianapolis
Colts (-10.5) @ Oakland
Raiders: loss
(Line: Tuesday, 3:00am EST: TheGreek)
I
have to take the big away fa"vorite here, and I
don't like it all that much." The Colts just didn't
show up. Their running game was bad, and there's no
excuse for that against the Raiders, a team that has
been brutal against the run. I didn't like this game
much to start, and that was because I didn't know if
the Colts would show for this game. I'll pick against
them next week.
Philadelphia
Eagles (+10) @ Dallas
Cowboys: win
(Line: Tuesday, 3:00am EST: TheGreek)
Thank
you Brian Westbrook for being too smart for my fantasy
team to win. Down on the half yard line, lost in a tie-breaker.
Jerk. At least I won this game, that's always a nice
thing.
