Well, it was a great week until Monday night. Three Rams turnovers in the first half killed the side and the total bet.
This week, I have significantly more picks than usual. Due to this, and the fact that I will be out of state again all weekend (and need to get packed), the write-ups will be even more brief than usual.
PHILADELPHIA AT KANSAS CITY
1st Half Line: Philadelphia -1.5, O/U 18.5
Not much to write about. Like many others, I expect this to be a rather low scoring game.
PICK: 1st Half Under 18.5 (1x)
INDIANAPOLIS AT BALTIMORE
1st Half Line: Baltimore -3.5, O/U 21.5
The Ravens haven't convinced me that they are a playoff caliber team. The Colts haven't convinced me that they're not. I think the line and the total are a bit high, so we'll take the dog and the under for a small wager.
PICK: 1st Half Indianapolis +3.5 (1x)
PICK: 1st Half Under 21.5 (1x)
MINNESOTA AT PITTSBURGH
1st Half Line: Pittsburgh -4, O/U 20.5
We have a terrible road team, who has not been playing well all year, against a good home team who has been playing quite well.
PICK: 1st Half Pittsburgh -4 (1x)
TAMPA BAY AT CINCINNATI
1st Half Line: Tampa Bay -3.5, O/U 17.5
Tampa Bay on the road, in cool weather, off of an emotional MNF win, giving 3.5 halftime points? Both teams have mostly been playing low scoring games too.
PICK: 1st Half Cincinnati +3.5 (2x)
PICK: 1st Half Under 17.5 (2x)
TENNESSEE AT CLEVELAND
1st Half Line: Cleveland -0.5, O/U 17.5
I'll keep betting Browns and under if Vegas keeps giving me these lines...
PICK: 1st Half Cleveland -0.5 (4x)
PICK: 1st Half Under 17.5 (2x)
DETROIT AT CHICAGO
1st Half Line: Chicago -4, O/U 19.0
Bears have given up 52 points total in 10 1st halves so far.
PICK: 1st Half Under 19.0 (2x)
SAN DIEGO AT SEATTLE
1st Half Line: Seattle -1.5, O/U 21.5
Chargers continue their 2nd half slide. I don't like taking the favorite -1.5, since you lose the 14-13, 10-9, 7-6, etc. games, but here is an exception.
PICK: 1st Half Seattle -1.5 (2x)
ST LOUIS AT ATLANTA
1st Half Line: St Louis -4, O/U 23.0
I think linesmakers are taking a bit too much away from St Louis due to their Monday night loss.
PICK: 1st Half St Louis -4.0 (3x)
PICK: 1st Half Over 23.0 (2x)
ARIZONA AT OAKLAND
1st Half Line: Oakland -7, O/U 22.5
Am I the only one who thinks Oakland is a little too heavy of a favorite here? Arizona has played tough on the road.
PICK: 1st Half Arizona +7.0 (2x)
BUFFALO AT SAN FRANCISCO
1st Half Line: San Francisco -5, O/U 23.5
I think the 49ers are due for a letdown here. Buffalo has played fairly well in the first half of road games.
PICK: 1st Half Buffalo +5.0 (1x)
GREEN BAY AT JACKSONVILLE
1st Half Line: Green Bay -2, O/U 21.5
PICK: 1st Half Under 21.5 (2x)
Good luck.
