There are certainly reasons to consider the Lions as the bet.  It would have been nice for the Lions to have lost this past week to get more points but the line will continue to increase.  At 6 points, I might just take a dabble on Detriot ML and I am not joking.


The NFC North has not been kind to the Jets so far.  From just a glance, Lions look like the play.  Its nice that theres no rush for potential Lions backers.

You guys are out of your minds. They expected people to take DET for -3.5 because they had a win where they scored a lot of points, Staffords back, 6-1 ATS blah blah blah. I know I took DET -2.5 vs WAS... The Jets took a awful loss where they scored nothing. This is a big set up to me. Jets will run the crap out of the ball and blitz Stafford who is still very inexperienced.

Best of luck 


sorry for chirping you before just you wrote about a play and never played it. turns out i love the lions this week. at +4 i feel a push would be worst case scenario. lions offense can definitely move the ball on the jets and the lions D is underrated. suh and the d line are playing well shutting down LT and this inept jets offense at the moment. lions at home against a top team= motivation and full effort. im not sure on the outright win but cover looks good

any reasonings behind this play that you wouldn't mind sharing?  Thats just a ballsy play out right... but you know the ballsy plays are usually money.  Nice hits on SNF and MNF !

I will have a moderate write up on this game no later than Wednesday.  My suggestion for those locking in this play as I said earlier is to take the points and closely keep an eye on the number these next 24 hours.  I really see this stabilizing at 4 throughout most of the week and slightly jump to 4.5 before coming back down to 4 by kickoff, but definitely keep an eye on the movement and punch in your ticket as you see fit. 

Thanks, the Prime Time games were enjoyable to watch this weekend for pretty much the whole games, which was nice.  This Detroit game here is the one I will be heavily keeping an eye on this coming Sunday.  Even though it's not on the center stage (Sun. night-Mon night)  it will be center stage on my card, and on my television.  Not many of the other games are going to matter for once.

POY and LOCKS on covers are the best fade material of all time.

I've got my largest wager of the week from coming into this thread.  Jets -4.  No offense to you, but when people post threads like this they are golden to fade.

Obviously you haven't taken the time to review any of my threads from the past when rare occasions like this come up. 

Best of luck on your fade.

It really depends on you your talking about.  I know theres alot out there that post's POY's and LOCK's but they are attention person and just want some attention.  I'll fade them any day.  But, FF is not one to toot their horn and blow whistles with his plays.  He caps his games and has been consistently hitting 60%+.  Time to pay attention when these rare occasions arise.  Cap the game and play it how you see fit.  Besides never tail anyone unless you capped the game yourself and see the same pick.  BOL on your jets play.

It's not about tooting a horn.  It's about someone posting a thread saying Play of year, lock of my life... etc.  If it is really a great play in your eyes, and you generally post your plays make it a normal thread.  The POY is for attention.  If people are coming in your threads looking for your plays, they will find it.  Designate the units on your play to show how much you like it.  They will see it is much more than your normal play.

The POY and LOCK threads are and have been golden.  Obviously I lose some of them, but more often than not, it is a nice hit.  Again, it is nothing against you.  You have just triggered the automatic fade.

The POY is the Detroit Lions

I don't expect this play to be popular, but I do expect the Lions to win convincingly this weekend against the Jets at home and certainly cover the points.  I will have a moderate write up as the week goes on. The line is sitting at +4 right now in most places across the board, and I don't expect it to go beyond 5.  Take them plus the points this weekend and keep an eye on the line movement within the next 24hrs and play the game as you see fit. 



Thats a horrible play... Win or lose... That play in no way qualifies as a POY... If you want attention, bring candy to a nursery
