Starting the Season Now!

Ok Folks as a rule of thumb I never bet the first week of the season, as I like to sit back and gather as much real game info as I can.  A lot of people ask me why and it is just something I have always done because I find in the first week there are far too many intangibles to accurately make an educated and well thought out Pick!  That all being said it is week two and time to get this bank rolling.

YTD 0-0

I only have two Plays today to start my year off, enjoy the Games People!

Carolina -3.5 vs Bills:  The Carolina Panthers are coming off a game that saw them attempt nothing down the field and with a point to prove that they can throw the deep ball and all this well going against a banged up Bills Secondary! my play is on the Panthers minus the points in what I think will be a blow out and a reality check for the Bills who hung with the Pats in week one but really didn't show me anything that would lead me to believe they can hang today. 

Saints -3.5 vs Tampa Bay :  Sean Payton is back, Drew Brees is still Drew Brees and Jimmy the ginger Graham is still a beast and well Tampa Bay is still Tampa Bay and could not even beat the JETS!  I am not going to over think this one and will lay the points with the Saints!

Upset alert :  Every week I will post one underdog who I believe will cover however this will not actually be an official play unless stated.

Upset Alert : Browns vs. Ravens -7.5 : I really do like the Browns in this spot, there front seven looked formidable against the run, and the Ravens need to establish the run to set up there play action weapons, however with the injuries and all the new faces I see this as a perfect spot for the Browns to cover the number and keep it close.

There you have it people hope you all enjoy the games and I look forward to interacting with you all now lets get these paper cuts!

catch you all on the flip

Philly was also a game I was considering but stayed away because the Chargers are my team and I can not and will not bet games that feature my favourite team as a general rule of thumb.  That being said I don't see how Chargers can keep pace with Philly's hectic offense well trying to run up tempo themselves and with no running game to speak of I don't see how the Chargers keep the Eagles off the field enough to keep this close so I would like to play Eagles minus points and the over but because of reasons stated earlier this was a no play for me

Good to see ya, used to read your post in college hoops. Good Luck on your plays.
