i actually went 6-0 on game picks in my 10 team parlay.
bears, moneyline +210
10 point teaser, falcons -.5, broncos -4.5, chargers -3.5
Arizona -1 straight bet
4 team parlay:
Arizona -1
Arizona/Houston under 42
Bengals -8.5
Oakland/Cleveland under 40.5
Arizona has won 2 straight road games.
Arizona won a total of 3 road games from 2002-2004.
Arizona has not won 3 straght road games since 1987.
Kurt Warner will turn the ball over 4 times and Houston is going to win.
Houston will then lose to Jacksonville while San Francisco loses to Jacksonville and St. Louis on the road. This will set up the Bush Bowl. 2-13 Texans at 2-13 49ers, 1/1/06. Most important game of the season.
And I would take Buffalo +9 vs. Denver.
you are neglecting the whole "texans throwing their games and not even being subtle about it" thing. but thanks for making me nervous.
The subtlety of it all was the kick return and lateral to set up the field position. What they didn't count on was the extra 15 yards on the facemask.
Still.. Houston 16 Arizona 15
bears (-3.5) and the under (31.5)
on a hunch i put $120 on the ravens -3.5 and over 34. BOOOOO YAH!
Bloody Anus, post pix! I'm baffled this week.
I'll try a 5 team parlay:
Bengals -13.5
Chargers -2
SD/KC under 49.5
Texans +6.5
Niners +9
The Chiefs have won 12 straight home games in December since 2000 and since 1992 are 20-2 against the money line at home in December. 6 of their last 7 home December games have gone OVER the total.
If you held a gun to my cock and forced me to take a 5-teamer, I'd go with:
Cincinnati -13.5 over Buffalo
Cleveland +7 over Pittsburgh
San Diego/Kansas City OVER 49.5
Jacksonville/Houston UNDER 37.5
Oakland/Denver OVER 43
In a perfect world I'd replace the SD/KC over with New England -6.5 at the Jets. But since I have banned myself from betting any more regular season Jets games, I'll take the high total at Arrowhead instead.
haha you went 0-5. i see why you stopped betting
also where do you get all these gambling stats from? i.e. so and so team is 20-5 against the spread since 1958 etc.
1 week left and on a rough count, i'm down $270 for the year. not bad considering i was down $400 by week 4 or 5. I'm already thinking of putting a big bet on the steelers over detroit. If that game isn't a blow out i'll eat my hat.
The NFC east division standings iare upside-down and I don't like it. Also, is there any doubt that the Pats are going to eliminate the Colts in the playoffs again?
