I have been burned too many times to play a Colts under again this year. Like the other plays though. Good Luck!

spanky, oak under? with oak offense and weak defense i would guess consenes would be over.gl

 

[JSMOOTH]

Are those in order? Most fav to least?

 

[spanky2]

Smooth,I played them all the same amounts,as I uaually do, unless I have a LOCK AND LOAD play on,but I always clearly state a 'LOVE' game..And then we are talking a little different.
Good luck this weekend,got to get the little ones something from Santa..
Spanky.....Luck to all...

I don't know about the other plays but I would not trust the chargers defense to keep the raiders to under 28 points and since I think it will be a close game I see this as an easy over. Keep in mind both secondaries are really banged up, specially the Chargers. Also, Indy and under don't go hand in hand.

 

[spanky2]

Your right,Chargers AND Indy make a person think OVER right away,very simple.
My thoughts are that the secondaries will play some'd' and offenses shall struggle .Getting 47 in both games is a big number, so I am in like a dirty shirt.
Both these games initially say OVER ,but not to me. Spanky.....

 

[spanky2]

Nice to see these guys actually playing a little 'd' for a change.Go figure...Spanky...
I think I'll just sit on my UNDER play and leave the second half alone on this game...
Good luck if you guys got anything the 2nd half...

Good call Spanky... Sometimes when it seems too easy.... IT IS...

The Consensus was the over but you had it right..... Keep up the good work for tommorrow... AM2kidz

I have to agree with th sentiment above regarding that Colts/Falcs Under 47. Don't make this any harder than it should be. Falcons alone will get very close to the O/U themselves.

Colt's defense has held only ONE opponent in the teens! That was of course against that offensive juggernaut Buffalo Bills(14). Besides this game, Colts "D" has been pathetic. Last four they've given up the following: Miami(41), Ravens(39), Niners(40), and Saints(34). Less we forget the Patriots(44), Bills(26), KC(28), and Jets(24).

As if the Colts "D" didn't any more bad news, it appears they've had to activate Donnell Thompson from the practice squad to help out the depleted linebacker position.
The Colts have been thin at linebacker, with Mike Peterson out since Nov. 11 with a sprained right knee and Sean Harris, who was signed during training camp and was expected to be a key backup, on injured reserve.

Starting middle linebacker Rob Morris also is questionable for Sunday's game against Atlanta after having a concussion in the first half Monday night at Miami.

I think the OVER/TOTAL one of the strongest on the board....

 

[spanky2]

Quick thought, Alot of people thought the oakland game was a simple over as they had been giving up 24 points per game(more stats.) So what happened ??
I do not believe in too much attention on trends or stats. handicapping.. I take a blend of other things like situational handicapping or focus of attention,etc.All I know is most'public' money is 'chalk and over',I tend to look for value in 'dogs and under' most of the time,but ,certainly not all the time..
Good luck on your action...Spanky...

 

[Neemer]

Nah, I actually just sat here and watched the Oak/SD game. I thought ya could have flipped a coin in that game. I also had no indications of a total play.

You could be perfectly correct, but anytime I select an UNDER play, I'm counting on at least ONE team's defense to step up their play and thus getting under the number. Both of these defenses, especially the Colts have proved that any average NFL team can score against them.

Anyhows.....Good Luck to ya!!!

 

[spanky2]

Neemer,boy you just never know how many Indy will score??The Jets 'teased' me at the end of the game giving me thoughts of a 4 and 1 NFL weekend.
Oh well,what can ya do ?? No plays late for this guy.How about you, did you play much today or do you still have action in play. Good luck,Spanky...
