Lost about (bit over) 4 units on the season...bring on Playoffs!!

Philli @ Dallas under 45

Yeah, still not seeing what has changed exactly. Dallas the most under-rated defenses in a long time...are much more ground orientated than anyone realises...
Philli's O-line is in trouble, will struggle to get anything deep...if anything they played it soft on defense last game, expecting Romo to be rushed more often in this one...

Philli don't top 20...will be surprised if they lose. ;)

Tease: Jets @ Cinci under 40; NE v. Balt under 49

Jets/Cinci will be a ground game, no way around it. Bengals get Peko and others back this week to make their real run D complete...
...Jets have a great D as it is, just can't see too many points here...but 34 is a little low...

No Welker is going to hurt NE...still their D is under-rated too...
...gave up big(ish) numbers to NO, Indi and Houston...do have problems against good passing teams...but allow just 14.5 ppg against anyone NOT in the top 4 for passing yards!! (Ravens 18th)
Balt just can't be run on...will allow them to drop back and cover a Welker-less NE...have give up over 27 once all season.
27-20 looks a stretchy here to me.
[Balt HUGE value for SB a@ 34.00...if they sneak through this week it opens up big time for them! ;) ]

Ocho under 50.5 receiving

Since Henry last played (8 games), Chad has gone over this number just 3 times...SD, who do have some good numbers v. the pass, but Cromartie and Jammer are hardly what you'd call "lock down! "...(61% allowed, compared to Jets 51%)
...Detroit, who I could play defense for...and Oakland, who are eqaul 31st with Detroit! at 8.1 y/pass allowed. (Jets 5.4)

Revis' record this year against the premier WRs in the league has been oustanding..

A.Johnson (4 for 35yds)
R.Moss (4 for 24yds)
M.Colston (2 for 33yds)
T.Owens (3 for 13yds)
S.Smith (1 for 5yds)
R.Wayne (3 for 33yds)
C.Ochocinco (0 for 0yds)

Good Luck all :cool:

Also taken a couple of futures...

Dallas win SB @ 13.00 (The best I could find)

Favs this week, have handled Philli twice already this season...
...a win would set them up to play NO who they beat 3 weeks ago...easily! (Were 24-3 up in the last)...Saints' D (esp. run) has really dropped away, and they are going into the Playoffs on a 0-5 ats run (2-8 last 10)...
...then either a trip to Minni (who you'd have to say are struggling, winning just 2 of 5 coming in, and the last one hardly counted)...
...or a home game. [Which, to be fair, is definately likely, given GB will push Minni for sure, and Zona have beaten them this season aswell.]

Amazingly under-rated defense! I seem to be the only person who ever goes on about it! :142smilie ...but, I mean, in no previews or write-ups do they ever get a mention...
...hold teams to less than 14 ppg at home...AND...rush for 165+ at home.
Tough numbers to beat.

A Dallas/GB Conf final won't surprise me at all.

So... GB 23.00

2nd overall in total D...hold teams to the least TOP in the NFL (under 27 mins), and the 2nd best y/play ...
...top 5 overall offense, should get by this week with some injury help...
...have been beaten by Minni twice, but numbers all in their favour for a re-match...will be a completely even money game either way...
...reckon they can beat NO if they get through, who's defense has disappeared altogether...
...and have beaten Dallas this season (at home)...

...like I said, a Dallas/GB Conf final is well and truly on the cards, and these are BIG odds for both, imo. :mj06:

Yep - a lotta Iggles love around here - Cowboys haven't had that good of a run defense since what, 1993:SIB
