So we (that’s Ernesto the Prediction Iguana and I) went 4-2 overall last week, but just 1-2 in teasers, (stupid Lions lost to the hapless Bills…at home! Weak effort!)
Anyway that brings the young season totals to 9-3 overall, 3-3 in teasers, but it’s early days yet. Here’s this weeks picks. Watch out! This week the numbers were dangerously close!
ROAD WARRIORS – RIDE THE HOT HAND!
broncos +1.5 at JETS
niners +4.5 at RAMS
Looks like the Rams are, once again, this year’s Browns – a reverse ATM machine. Wow, can it be long before the putrid Jets mercifully end the career of that coach that’s only famous for being loud and fat?
OVER EASY!
DOLPHINS-packers OVER 41.5
VIKINGS-lions OVER 38
I have this rule about playing divisional games between teams that suck, but I’m breaking it for the OVER-UNDER play this week in that match-up of perennial NFC North doormats. The Dolphins have improved and should hit the over with the help of the Packer offense.
ARE THEY FOR REAL?
chargers -1/2 at RAIDERS
panthers +12 at BENGALS
I’ve lost the last two times I’ve played the Bengals after having a good run with them through last year’s regular season. The Panthers were great both as a play and for the UNDER last year, but have given up more points than they’ve scored his year.
