I like Auburn... The only good team A&M has played is Clemson and we see how that went... Auburn beat Oregon... Thoughts?

glad to see you on both Tex A&M and Utah...have had Utah flagged for this game since offseason and Tex A&M after watching Bo Nix vs Oregon.

Auburn was very fortunate to get that win against Oregon

Exactly, hate NFL, you cannot win consistently because of the refs.

Winston,

NYJets- Trevor Siemian gets the start at QB, a 7th rounder from Nwstrn in 2015. Had a good year in 2016, 18 td & 10 int, with solid throwing % and qbr. However, in 2017 he dropped off to 12 td & 14 int, comp % dropped as did qbr. But I will say Bucky Elway's team was in turmoil at that time. Siemian got injured and hasn't played since December 2017. He watched Cousins from the sidelines in Minny last year. He has a 59% career completion record.
All Pro MLB CJ Mosley is out for this game. So is 3rd draft pick DL Quinnen Williams.
I think the Jets have 5 suspensions but they've known about them so they have filled the roster accordingly.
Jets also have a few others dinged up.
Le'Veon Bell's MRI was good. Case said he was good to go on Friday.

Cleveland has a cluster of injuries as well.
It's a rough league.

Line opened Cleveland -2.5. When it was announced Darnold was out it immediately went to -6. A few hours later it went to -6.5 and has been there ever since. 

The Jets blew a 16-0 lead to the Bills last week, were up 16-3 at the end of 3 qtr.
Cleveland turned back into the Clowns last week and the Titans thumped them. Had 18 penalties. 

Jets DC Gregg Williams was the DC at Clev for 3 years and was the interim HC for 8 games last year when Hue got canned. He's definitely familiar with Clev.

NFL trends:
NFL teams as a dog following a loss as a favorite who gave up less than 21 points on D are 41-20 last 61 times. (Bills scored 17)
Same situation above but it's a revenge game from last year also, 30-10-1 ats.
Same situation as above but the loss in the previous game was also against a Divisional rival (Buffalo) the streak is 18-1 ats.
Basically, the principle thinking with players backing these trends is the D played well enough to win. 

Do the Jets have enough to continue the trends? As BA would say, wtf knows? Lots of ? marks both ways. 

Can Kitchens handle the humongous egos in the Clev locker room. That's a real good ?

No big or regular plays tonight Winston. Lots of questions both ways. I generally side with the MNF home dog. Especially when there are players trying to get out of the hole with a Large play tonight coupled with some others that had a good weekend and are now making a Large wager with "house money" to cap off a really big weekend. 
There is heavy action on Clev here.

Cleveland is still the Clowns as far as I'm concerned until proven otherwise. I had the Titans in Cleveland's opener. People betting the Clowns to the point that they are the most wagered team to win the Super Blow is beyond insanity to me. (It takes crazy to know crazy)
I don't believe Trevor Siemian is 4 points less than Sam Darnold.

Small play on the dog for me for entertainment purposes only. 

You can wait to late to see if it goes to 7 (which I doubt because I believe the Boyz are comfortable with the 6.5), or buy the half.

Play: NY Jets +7

Rufus,

Utah moves to -4, would you still take them?

Long time follower, first time caller.

I hate losing more than I wanna win

Yep, he wrote BEFORE the game....and the Jets played with a guy literally off the street for nearly 3 quarters.


Not sure what's wrong with people on covers or life in general.

Agree Train...And...Sieman played about three sets of downs before getting dumped out of the game...not a particularly good sample size.

Ifan...I went looking for your MNF pick and didn't see one...Also, went looking for your NFL record (posted record) and didn't see one of those either.

On Covers, I'd say "Put up or Shut Up," but what do I know.

hey jagoff, weren't you the one crying about people not explaining the reasoning behind their picks when you first signed up? now you've gotta criticize others thorough write ups and post threads asking for everyone else's opinions on your leans? 
No team is as good as it looks when winning nor are they as bad as they look when losing

Oh, so someone has to have a record to have an opinion... Makes perfect sense...

My bad for thinking that the internet and opinions are not that big of a deal, and thinking that people do not take things so seriously.. Keyboard warrior

Excellent..so we agree...You need a posted record if you're going to be critical of another's.
