Circa Million help request

[~Buckshot~]

Hey y’all, long time member, seldom poster but great respect for all the follows and fades I love here.

I’m near the top 100 in the Circa Million but more importantly and to the point, they pay quarterly prizes and I’m 13-2 this quarter, 1 win out of first.

Need a 5-0 or 4-1 week to cash. I use a number of methods to pick my weekly 5, follows, fades and my own ‘cappin.
Thought I’d throw it out to the community, need your best side this week. No totals, only sides and let’s limit replies to your one fav play.

Much like the esteemed Jord, I’ll post my played prior to Thursday games, for those who care if I cash or not.

And, since I’m a rule follower and don’t want Kick banning me before I get my picks, my play for this post is Cin minus the number. Love a 4-7 team laying points to an 8-3 team, I see Burrow having success, maybe a bit of a hangover from Pit on the loss last week and generally gravitate toward home teams.

Appreciate any and all replies and no offense if I end up on the opposite side of anything you share, that’s how the game goes sometimes.

Cheers everybody!

Thanks PJ

Can’t back the Lions here, it’s Chicago or no play for me. I’ve had decent success with Bears games and in todays NFL, would never lay double digits

I hate the Giants play, which means it’s probably the right side ( taken Car, TN and Ind more tomes than I care to admit this year ). That one is a possibility

I like the Mia play, one I considered myself. Different team recently with Tua back, a bit concerned about the temp in GB and how Mia plays in the cold

Rams -2.5 at NO

Tenn +

Rob & TP, appreciate the replies

If I had a hair on my ass I’d take Jets, TN, Raiders, Giants and Rams - 5 worst records against the number so far this year but I don’t so went with:

Chi +9.5
NYG +3.5
Cin -3
Rams -2.5
Buf -7

TN was last game I threw out, outvoted by my partner for Buffalo

Don’t have stones to play it but based on line movement and money, Jets win

Cheers!

Like your bengal pick

Buck, this year in the nfl I haven’t been able to pick my mom out of a herd of giraffe. But I did want to wish you luck this week on the contest man! Hope you get your 5-0!

 

[~Buckshot~]

Well hell. I go 3-2 and end up one spot out of the money for the quarter. 4-1 and I cash, 5-0 and I win $25k.

I don’t regret the Cin play, think that was the right side, just didn’t hit. I regret the NYG play, if I was going down, wish it would have been with a better team at this point in the contest.

Man this game is tough. If you can hit 60% on a regular basis you can outrun the juice and quit your day job. I go 16-4 for the quarter, 80% and get nada. Sure was fun being in the hunt though.

Thanks again for the picks and well wishes, I know the time it takes to post here, really appreciate the entire community.

Cheers!

Your favorite side this week?

Haven’t looked yet. I usually take first glance Wednesday and submit contest plays Friday or Saturday to take advantage of lines moves against the contest lines. I’ll post it once I take a look. Thanks

4-1 and I cash, 5-0 and I win $25k.

Well that officially sucks.

Nice try but like you said a lot of fun along the way.

Favorite fav is NO, favorite dog is probably Cleveland.

Contest plays ( Circa lines ) are:
NO - 4.5
Raiders +7
Cleveland + 7
Philly -12.5
Min - 5.5

That Min-Atl is interesting to me. In addition to the Circa contest, I'm in another contest with about 300 entries. You have to pick 6 using their early lines, picks in by Wednesday noon. I'm in with a buddy, he pays, I pick. This week I sent him 7 and told him to throw out the one he likes least, he threw out Atl. That makes Atl an auto play for me, that's the way my contrarian mind works. The Min play in the Circa contest was my partners pick. Just food for thought, if anyone cares.

Follow, fade or forget you ever read this, one mans loss is another mans profit, wishing y'all a great day.

Cheers!
