Good post tho   I'll enjoy watching my team today but I'll avoid betting.

And they went 8-8 after all that too, taking down the Saints and Pats along the way (and at the time, won in Atlanta which began the Falcons implosion and where no one beat Matty Ice).

Sometimes ya just need a little liquor in ya to pull the trigger on the Jets.

Jets 19
Raiders 14

That's one leg completed and everything I feared  with they spread came to fruition. The "big play" we feared came at the worst possible time for Jets ATS backers which is why I just couldn't lay this number.

To the jets backers who laid the points: my only consolation is this was a 'right side wrong result'.

Look at the stats:

Raiders 158 yards 
Jets 402 yards

Jets time of possession 35 min
Raiders 25 minutes 

Jets 2 turnovers 

Jets 100+ yards of penalties.

Worst of all, they fail on the 2 pt conversion to stretch the lead to 14 opening the door for a screw job loss or push with a last second Raider TD.

It is why I don't trust this team laying points, even against the woeful Raiders.

And mark my words, there won't be another game this year where a 1/2 pt in the no man's land spread of 5 actually comes into play. Jets did everything possible to get inside this number and blow the spread but get the win.

Love your input,  I bought points to 6 and lost but did a small bet.  Just Can't trust the jets spread. Good luck this year

Idiots. When they went for 2 to stretch the lead to 14, ya had to know they'd go into their prevent D and give up the late score.

Don't forget Geno also got sacked for a 10 yard loss taking the Jets out of FG range the drive before (which would have made the lead less comfortable 9 and likely preventing the Jets from going into a prevent defense that have up the screwjob TD).

Scal I took some absolute world-beaters this weekend....First was I grabbed at the beg of game Michigan State +16.5 on a live bet.  Michigan went on a great run after that, was up I think 12, and then game completely fell apart but to make it worse, Oregon was kicking a fg at the end of the game that still would have kept me under the number and then guy went offside, creating a 4th and shorter distance, so oregon decided to run it-instead and of course ran for a touchdown to put me outside of the number.....Then i had Seattle over 5 runs against Texas last night...they had 4 in the top of the 9th, 3 men on, 1 out, and of course hit into a double play to end the game (not terrible, but still sucked)...Had astros over A's last night and As score 3 in the bottom of the 9th inning (hedged a little on As before bottom half of ninth but still lost over half of bet)....I took Denver -8, but more importantly also had a few prop bets on denver anywhere from 13-29 winning buy and then they blow the entire 2nd half of course and where they really went wrong was not getting the onside kick.  If it wasn't for my Bills beating the Bears this weekend, it was terrible betting standput though.  Some times the gambling gods love to really push me as much as possible...I've had worse losses individually but as a whole, All 4 of my bets come down to the end and completely screw me over

I had 2 other bets, that i went 1-1 on...but 4/6 bets ending like that was pretty harsh, especially with the prop bets i had before the game on Denver as well

Ouch!

I can't bet against Oregon like that in-game or otherwise. No lead is ever safe. And forget baseball O/U's. I can't tell you the number of bad beat stories I've heard and yours add to the list.

14-0 Lions before you can bat an eyelash and the Giants look just as befuddled as predicted. Manning 0-2 for zero yards.

This is a disaster for the Giants. They can't even punt the ball.

San Fran and the under defenetly 52
Ravens (east coast) but got weapons galore experience and harbrough brothers don't lose if so not by much
Pats own Miami ( lucky behind win last year) payback time
Saints cuz Bree's (former charger)is an assassin and w/o tony Gonzalez Atlanta is soft as baby's behind.
Denver and the over .. Manning for four qtrs with a chip on his shoulder
Should be exciting.
Lastly + $$ money redskins over Houston they got weapons everywhere clowney can't cover everybody by second half he"ll be shutdown

Play this 7-8 teamer and u won't lose.. Bet that.. Mixed in with a lil scal pix should produce a winning recipe for week 1

I would say gd luck but none needed these are expert picks.........What this 2-5?....Just Tail Baby!


 
Still giving a lot of thought to the Pats game... Nowhere near as confident  you in them (remember game 1 last year vs. the Bills. The awful Bills should have beat them).

So a QB posts a line of 24-38 1 TD 1int 256 yrds and 47 yards rushing and he had 'absolutely nothing' to do with the win? Interesting. You'll get exactly zero guys on this board who agree with you.
