even though it's the browns with no QB. I'm not sure KC could beat ME by 7.5 points.

Buddy sent me a text on Sunday morning: you like KC -7?

Me: Hell, no I don't even like them -3.5

Wow, did I get punished this past week. That's what I get for playing games that I didn't feel strongly about.

Here we go with week 8.

PHI -5.5
DAL +3
BUF +10.5
PIT -2.5
ATL ML
MIN +9.5

Lots of home dogs this week...lots of value as well.

Atlanta +8

Tennessee -3

San Diego PK

Oakland -2

Green Bay -10.5


And because of the odds in many games...i spent 30 bucks on a variety of proline tickets and pools.

interesting week for sure.

Hoping to break this skid I'm on.

NO -6
SD ML
CLE ML
IND -1

I'm giving some serious thought to riding both double digit dogs tonight and parlaying them together. I'm loving Stanford +10 at home and Oklahoma +16.

anyone want to talk me out of it?

Really hope youre wrong. I got big money on both the favorites!

Strong possibility I could be done this week after treading water last week. I'm essentially down to my final 6 outs.

PHI ML
OAK ML
DET ML
NO -7
SD +7

You and me both man, this year has been BRUTAL the only thing I'm winning on or the occasional teaser.

I really like to bet on football but my interest in doing it is quickly fading because it's sh*tty week after sh*tty week

I think it's this year. None of my friends are doing well. We're all right around the same percentage. Vegas must be cleaning up.

I'm on a bunch of road teams this week.

DET -2.5
BAL ML
CLE +5.5
NO -3.5
NE ML

[GirlySports]

i would tease all those

DET +4.5
BAL +10
CLE +12.5
NO +4.5
NE +10

That would get me what? 3.5 to 1?

9-2 on 6 pt tease but I noticed you teased across 0 a couple games, Hate doing that

[rubecube]

And an absolute beatdown last week. What a awful season for me. I can afford two games this week!

TB +8
NE ML

[browna]

First time ever playing SS Pools.

With tomorrow's game to go, thanks to Denver choking away, I've got 11 out of 12 today...WRONG.

Carolina was my only correct pick today.

Given that the statistical odds of me getting 11/12 wrong is the same as me getting 11/12 right when it comes to picking one or the other in SS Pools, is there a WCLC consolation prize for such brutalness? ha.

Sure here's your prize

I haven't gambled on football in 2 weeks now...football isn't as fun

Well you're on your way back with those plays.

[rubecube]

IT LIVES! I'm resurrecting this thread for the playoffs. I haven't made a single bet since the 21st, and I'm guessing that due to the lack of activity in this thread that most of you had as bad of seasons as I did. Anyways this weeks picks:

IND pk
NO -2.5
CIN -7
SF -2.5

As a FYI: In playoff history dome team playing outside in 35 and lower temperatures are 3-22.

I know, but everyone keeps doubting the Saints this week and pumping Philly's tires. I have a bad feeling that Brees and Payton are going to play a giant FU game.
