Week 3 Picks!!!

Had a decent week last week going 3 – 1 +2 Units.  For the season I am 6 – 3 up +3 Units. 

So let’s carry that momentum into this week!!

1)      SF @ MINN (Under 39) *2 Units – Two hard hitting defenses faces off.  Both offenses are not flashy and relies more on their running game to move the chains.  The only way I see this game going over is if there are special teams or defensive scores.  Other than that, I see a slow grinding defensive oriented game.

2)      Den @ OAK (Under 36.5) *1.5 Units – We got two of the best shut-down corners playing in this game.  Pair that up with two so-so QBs.  I don’t see any big passing plays at all in this game.  As long as none of the RB’s bust for huge runs, this game is going to stay under.

3)       ARI (-2) *1.5 Units – Indy barely escaped with wins against two weaker opponents in its’ first two games.  Their defense without Bob Sanders in the secondary has been struggling.  The Cards seem to find their groove on offense in their win last week.  ARI should outscore Indy in this one.

Good Luck Everyone!!

Week 2 Picks!!!

What a way to start the season!

Couple of pretty entertaining games that came down to the wire.  So I went 3-2 +1 Unit for Week 1 (for calculation simplicity, I am disregarding the Vig).  Lets jump straight to the picks for this week

1)      Titans (-6.5) *2 Units – The Titans should’ve beaten the Steelers if it wasn’t for the 2 failed FG attempts.  D-Line is not as dominant as last year without Haynesworth, but Linebackers to Secondary is still really good.  If the Jets D gave the Texans problem at their home, I see Titans D with 10 days rest, will dominate Houston this week.  Plus I see Chris Johnson getting his first 100+ yds game for this season.

2)      Vikings (-10) *1.5 Units – Vikings D is going to be pressuring Matt Stafford all game and its not going to be pretty.  AP and Chester Taylor would have a field day running at Lions D.

3)      Nyg @ DAL (Over 44.5) 1 Unit – First regular season game in the new stadium.  The Cowboys should be pumped for this one! Romo and Co. Looked good last week and as long as they can minimize the pressure from NYG’s talented front 4, Dallas will get their pts.  Dallas D ... [More]

Week 1 Picks!!!

Alright,

Here it is Week 1 plays.  Because it is the first week I am only playing 1 unit per play.  I normally hate playing big Favourites, but after going through all the games on the schedule a couple times, these are the games where I feel the best about.  So here it is!!

1)      Ravens (-13) *1 Unit – KC’s offense is still lost, they fired their Offensive Coordinator last week, O-Line is not great & Matt Cassel is hobbling around from his pre-season injury.  Only bright spot for them is Dwayne Bowe, but he can’t win a game single handed.  As for B’More, I think they are one of the most completed teams this year and I actually have them going all the way this year.  That defense is just plain Nasty and Offense with a more experienced Joe Flacco and Ray Rice emerging to playing a big part, is going to be productive.

2)      Vikings (-4) *1 Unit – Vikings got one of the best D-Line in the NFL, and the rest of the Defense is respectable also.  As for offense, all they needed was a QB, and voila they went out and got Brett Favre to go along already to me one of the best Running back tandems in the NFL with AP and CT.  As for Cle, Brady Quinn hasn’t really proven himself to be a star in this league yet and I am not impressed with Cle’s D.
