It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Ballsy call on the Penguins, as they are 1-7-1 in their last 9 versus NJ. I actually considered it myself since I think they’ve been close lately, having lost the past two games in OT. Plus, I liked the home ice factor. I didn’t do anything today, though.
Not suggesting that SEA is a bad pick because I may take them as well (or not), but there’s the whole West coast traveling 3x zones East thing, (ditto for OAK), but there’s also a possibility that Clowney doesn’t play and that changes the defense substantially. I’m going to wait on that one until 11:30 am when the inactives are announced.Bought Texans down to 2.5 parlayed with the under for a good start to the week. Thankfully, it seemed Brisset was gutting through something, similar to the bradyless bills debacle a few years back.
Am i missing something with Seattle? I'd take em -2.5 and got em even on the money line...philly just isn't very good. What has Wentz done since his rookie year? Receivers banged up, d is ok to good.
Oakland over jets feels like free money. The Jets wilk be over confident, and Gruden has quietly started building something real, and he hasn't even seen what his draft lottery haul is yet. How stupid does chicago look right now?
Might throw a few bucks at the carolina money line on a parlay lotto ticket. Saints remind me of mid dynasty pats. Pretty good d, pretty good o. Lots of ways to match up, injuries have forced their hand a bit, but they just keep winning. Shootout or slugfest, they've won both. Carolina is the type of team that could do enough to disrupt NO's game plan and steal one on the road. Decisions, decisions.
Because i am posting this, Jets will win by 3 scores in a route, ditto NO, and Wentz will light up Seattle to eke one out late.

I did the research on that angle earlier in the season and it’s not as effective as I thought. I don’t even look for it anymore.

I believe this came up (on this board) with SD years back in the AFCCG, and once or twice around then in the playoffs. It really isn't statistically much different than any other road game, where theres enough different things at play for the historical -3@home to remain steady. The focus became the stats around that specific team for a few years, who were in fact not playing well on the east coast for a stretch but then won a few out here to render it an apparent anomaly rather than rule.
Oakland -3
Giants +7.5
Seattle even$
Last time I posted what i thought here, I took a bath
Panthers ML and possible PL tonight. You're welcome
And Bengals ML
Off the top of my head, I want to say that historically, NFL teams only win approx. 40% of the time when traveling three time zones West to East. Does that sound about right?I did the research on that angle earlier in the season and it’s not as effective as I thought. I don’t even look for it anymore.

Raiders crushed me! Lol, seattle more than made up for that boneheaded call.
Left NE alone. Put a decent amount on Ten/under. Looking good, though ten's 14 pts in 5 minutes will have me wondering about the total pretty soon...
