Week10 Recap

The lumps continue. Fade my picks and win yourself a fortune. I feel like Glover Quin batting that ball right into the hands of Mike Thomas, can’t win for trying. But that’s alright, there ain’t much quitting in me. So I’m going to just keep plugging away until I can consistently pick winners at a clip of 60% or better. I guess just don’t hold your breath waiting for that to happen.

Week9 Recap

Often, there’s a fine line between banking and busting. The Jets pulled out a win in overtime against the Lions, but fell one point short of covering the spread. The Chiefs not only lost by 3 points to the Raiders, but fell a half a point short of covering the spread. The Steelers tried all they could to not cover against the Bengals, but stood strong in the very end. Other times, like in the case of the Browns destroying the Patriots, that fine line becomes as wide as a mountain range. See the Giants owning the Seahawks as well.

Jets -4 @ Lions 23-20 L
Patriots -4.5 @ Browns 14-34 L
Giants -7 @ Seahawks 41-7 W
Chiefs +2.5 @ Raiders 20-23 L
Steelers -5 @ Bengals 27-21 W

Meanwhile, the Saints traveled to Carolina and took care of business in a 34-3 route. Watch the clip to see Darren Sharper separate the man from the ball. In fact, our defense was swarming all over the Panthers’ weak offensive unit. Optimism in New Orleans is back in vogue headed into the bye week…2dat! 2dat!

Week8 Recap

Ugghh! That’s all I can say about this past weekend. As a matter of fact, I will say it again…ugghh!

Dolphins +2 @ Bengals 22-14 W
Broncos +1 vs. 49ers (London) 16-24 L
Packers @ Jets -6 9-0 L
Titans +3.5 @ Chargers 25-33 L
Vikings @ Patriots -6.5 18-28 W
Steelers +1 @ Saints 10-20 L
Texans +5.5 @ Colts 17-30 L

The Saints surprised me and rebounded well from their loss against the lowly Browns. In an odd twist, it seems that the Saints defense is outperforming the offense. We get Reggie Bush and Pierre Thomas back and we should be good to go for a decent playoff run.
