Tonight is my NFL Game of They Year (Eagles @ Redskins)

The Skins have quit! If the Skins win tonight, then arrest Andy Reid for fixing games.  Lots of people this week tried touting bad teams after the Eagles gave the Raiders a win last week.  I heard plenty of talk about St. Louis, Cleveland, and Tampa pulling upsets.  I don't think the Skins rally for Lewis, Zorn, or their pride. If it happens, quit betting because the fix is in. I am taking Philly, but skipping the over/under. 

Phil 27

Wash 13 

Nobody lays down for their divisional rival at home on MNF

WHY DO PEOPLE BET BAD TEAMS????

hahahah,,, i love when the peanut gallery says this,,,,yea dummies,,,its simple---bet the good teams every week and you'll make millions,,,,,,,,,,,,,,fools.   

All I know is this,,,,this guy posts insightful write ups,,,doesn't give a fuck about attention, and seems to post more winners than losers----good enough for me.  Good luck m.   

No way can I lay 8 with a MNF road favorite that hasn't scored a TD in 5 Quarters. The home dog strikes SU.

Take Washington +8...my NFL Game Of The Year!

Love it! Prime time home team dog rule for me; Wash +9

M15,

I like your logic and writeup.  Sunday, majority of the heavy favorites covered and people still think Monday is going to be the same.   This game is too heavy betted on PHIL, must be over 80%+ right now.  Too much money for one game on Monday night.  PUBLIC will lose again.  Most smart money already bet early in the week when it was still around 6-7 

Go Washington!!!

Great writeup again, sir, as this is the 3rd one I have read and you won the other 2. 

You are really a very excellent handicapper and I noticed you asked the lineamker at Logans a question the otehr day. I want to share this with you as I think you will appreciate it.

"Here is a question about the second half lines that somebody asked a linemaker on blankets. It was "do they factor in which team is getting the ball in the 2H. He said that he doesn't use that factor because there are so many other factors like yardage and teams scoring late, etc. That is a factor that I do use as it is always possible to score on the first possession and the ball and the points is even considered a better play.

So I know you watch a lot of games and then make 2H plays and I was wondering if you are always aware of who is going to receive in the 2H and consider that worth knowing. Thanks again for your input here."

Here is his answer- “Not sure who your 'linesman' at Covers who said that, but does he actually book bets or take action? Because any odds maker or bookmaker worth his salt knows who kicks off in every game. To not factor that into the second half line, especially in a game where the offenses are moving the ball up and down the field, is simply asinine to me. I don't really have much to elaborate about that, other than whoever the guy is, I'd love to get on his sheet if he writes business…”

And here was another reply by somebody else

"My follow-up Q to that blanket "linemaker" would be “Do you use who receives the 2nd H KO to set 3Q lines, because if he answers no to that you really have to scratch your head. Of course it's not factored into a full game, but when you start to break down segments further and further, the receiving team gains an advantage and will have 1 more possession about 50% of the time in the second half and 3rd Q, and if a team marches down in the 3Q and scores a TD and takes 7-8 minutes off the clock, not much game left."

Best wishes tonight! 

WASH +9.5  YAH BABY

Last chance to take it back! Nobody, but the Skins, is what you meant!

way to add value to the thread!!  good job. 

I'm just having fun. It doesn't add value to fluff up a dead dog and try to instill confidence in a team that has quit either. If you picked the Skins as a catch-up bet, then it's just a bad call.
