Got a big potential play on Arizona.. But can't get a bet on the game due to romo's injury situation.. Hoping he can start so I can ideally get Arizona at +4
4* Arizona Cardinals +3.5 (-110) *WINNER*
If I got -110 on the play or +4 I would possibly make it a 5 unit play.. if Weeden starts, Arizona backers will get Probaly 5-6 points of value on this game.. If not, the leagues most blitz heavy team will get to go against a Dallas team very likely to have a quick passing vanilla gameplan to avoid romo getting hit. I think this injury plays a big role in handicapping the game.. Romo is naturally gonna have a mindset of not wanting to get hit and Arizona will be after him all game. Arizona can stop the run well.. Enough to not stop, but contrain Murray. Dallas' defense is overrated, and Palmer is quietly playing at a borderline pro bowl level. I think Arizona takes this outright..
3* New england Patriots +3.5 (-120) *WINNER*
Nobody is better game planning then BB.. I think in the substantial winds he will gameplan to take the middle of the football field and force Peyton to throw outside the numbers. On the outside sanders and DT will be singled up against browner and Revis.. And they will eliminate them enough to help cover the number. I think this game will be lower scoring then a typical Brady/Manning matchup.. The homefield advantage for New England and wins factor is big for me.. 3.5 points is too much for Brady and BB to be getting at home.. STRONG 3* PLAY!
2* Minnesota Vikings PK (-115) *WINNER*
I know this Vikings team very well.. And I think it's a joke that the Vikings are considered to be 3 points worse then Washington on a neutral field. I believe RG3 will have a inconsistent start as the redskins try to get use to a QB who is the complete opposite of cousins and McCoy.. Vikings DLine is very underrated and think they get after the weak Skins OLine..skins have to scheme pressure with exotic blitzes but the Vikings can create pressure with the front 4..
2* New York Jets +10 (-120) *LOSER*
love this number.. Vick is an upgrade to the NYJ. Jets can't cover teams WR but KC throws it to there WR less then any team in the league.. I think the chiefs offense plays right into the hands of what the jets defense wants them to do..
1* New Orleans Saints -2 (-120) *WINNER*
I have a future bet on Saints winning the division because of the ineptitude of the NFC south. Well Carolina is there biggest challenge, and I can't see the saints falling to 0-5 on the road in a HUGE game for them. Saints struggle mostly on the road against teams strong in the trenches but Carolina has a weak OLine and there DLine has not been able to cover up secondary weakness like last season.. Take the team more likely to win the division in this key game..
1* Tampa Bay Bucs +7 (-120) *WINNER*
Bucs have been strange.. Very competitive some games and blown out in others. Think Cleveland is laying to many points here to this Tampa squad..
1* Seattle Seahawks -13 *LOSER*
think we see Seattle make a statement at the expense of the leagues worst team..
