NFL :VIKINGS @ TEXANS : NFL

This one is a tough one, we have lots of drama goin on with the Vikings, and then we have the Texans that have looked like the same ole team beating the Chiefs and getting killed against Saints,, so why is the line favoring the Texans? Well I believe the Texans are the biggest sleeper team of the year,, alot of their good draft picks over the past few years have experience now and the system is fitting together,, the Vikings have Favre yea,,and Jackson who will want to play lights out in 2nd half,, but I believe that we will see Jackson with some turnovers tonight,, Houston will put the pressure on him with their Defense,, Vikings might hang close the first half, but look for Texans to get this win by a touchdown or more,,, MY PLAY IS:

Houston Texans - 3     2 units     Good Luck

Chicago Bears @ Denver Broncos

Tonights game is going to be one to watch, I belive it is a make or break for Coach Mcdaniels. Many may disagree saying it is still just a preseason game, however think about what has gone on with this team, LOTS, can he control this team and earn some respect? Will the fans get behind this team and coach? Do not forget who Denver had as their coach the past years, Mike Shannahan""  Now for the Bears, Cutler is back at Mile High! Does he have a chip on his shoulder? Or is he feeling like he got the best of Denver by getting what he wanted,either way, he is the only player on the team that really has that angle in this game of wanting to beat his old team,, BUT, think about how many guys on the Broncos want to get back at their old quarterback for leaving them,, and this Coach that wants to make Cutler pay for his actions , and that will be by eating dirt,, Now dont get me wrong, these types of sitiuations can be way over exaggerated,,, but it is a pretty good spot for this type of sitiuation to be towards our advantage. When you look at Ortons stats, do not be fooled by the 1 TD to 4 INT,, 3 of those were in the first game of the season. Since then he has been doing very well compared against the rest of the league. ANd Cutler has been limited to about 12 attempts per game. If you dig deeper and look at the stats for the bears 3rd string QB you will see he has a problem hanging on to the ball,,, other factors Im looking at as well,,, but my Play is:
Denver Bronco... [More]

Did not have time for the write up tonight, but how often do you hear teammates talk about their rookie QB in such strong way, athletes that talk about other athletes saying about Sanchez "" He's just got it "" referring his natural ability and talent to be a starting qb in the NFL,,then we should listen, this was another one of those games where no matter which qb they have in, it will be a qb that can make good decisions with the ball, which usually turns out well against 2nd and 3rd string defenses.. Hope you all were on the Right side.

Jets + 3.5     Winner   2 Units      Good Luck

Glad TO BE BACK

      

       Glad to be back this year for another NFL season. I missed out on posting and playing the games for the most part last season. I will be keeping track of all Straight Bets. This includes sides and totals. Every now and then I will post ML parlays, however I will not include these in my record. So if you choose to play my investments, I want you to know that Parlays are not smart Investments. I only recommend that you follow my straight bet plays. Also, I will start my record over at (0-0-0) when the regular season starts. Below you will see a chart that will help both you and me to keep track of how many smart investments we have made thus far. 

I have been handicapping games for about 5 years now; I have made just about every mistake that one can make when it comes to sports investing. Including not keeping track of my ROI, paying a service before researching their past results, and most importantly, not using smart money management. I’m sure we all have at some point or another made these common mistakes when first starting out in the sports investing world. However, only those that learn from their mistakes can go on to succeed and move forward towards your goals of winning. I have family that is also a major part of the sports investing world, I...

Seattle Seahawks / KC Chiefs

Seattle looked stout against Denver , looked like the Seahawks from a few years back, but look at Denver, they are a mess right now. And when Hawks played San Dieogo there were turnovers galore. ANd you cant really look at to many stats from the first game of the season. Now the Chiefs, they have been turning the ball over as well, and not getting any turnovers back, so I can say that in practice Im sure there has been alot of stress on protecting the ball,  look for Seattle to slip up in this one, Kansas city opened up -1.5 and are now up to - 3, WHY?? Because I believe that the Texans are one of the biggest sleeper teams this year, and we all know that Minnesota has some stout D,, people are going to overlook these key notes and  will probably take the Points and the Seahawks,, but my play is:

Kansas City Chiefs  - 3   ( 2 Units )  Good Luck

Titans / Browns

Tonight seems like a good spot for Titans to get some good Offensive Practice right? Maybe even a good spot for the D to increase number of picks, but Brady and Anderson are in a battle, both capable of being the starting QB,, so we have basically a NFL starting QB in the whole game. Look for Browns to have a good night running the ball tonight also,, I would lean the under here, but My Play tonight is:

Cleveland Browns + 1        ( 2 Units )    Good Luck
