Good to see, Krazz. I'm having a hard time imagining the Bears getting a number any higher than a td but if they do, I'll be hitting the Bears again. I don't care what the New England line settles at, they win comfortably. I think the Raiders line is a joke but, then again, oddsmakers cant set this line any differently. Fitzgerald gets put on his asss the entire game, J.J.is double and triple teamed and the rushing attack sets up a few big plays downfield. The Eagles game might end up with 100 points. It's been awhile since I've liked plays as much as these 4. gl

I agree. Some wise guy will try and find an argument to either play the under or lay off the total but this game will be 21-17 at the half. I'll be hitting the first half total as soon as my book comes out with it. gl

Chi?  that run d against SF?

NE?  Did you see how bad Brady was against Miami?  Minnesota looks legit too.

My question to you is, do you make your wagers based on last weeks results? What does a bad outing by Brady last week have anything to do with this weekend? And, of course, Minnesota looks legit but are they? It's a different type of game when a defense can load 8 guys in the box to stop the run against a St Louis offense who poses no threat downfield. You and I could've played QB for the Vikings in week 1. Seriously. Do you realize Cassel only attempted 3 passes for more than 10 yds during the entire game? It's easy to be efficient with stats like that. This weekend will be entirely different for Cassel. He will actually have to play QB in week 2. Belicheck is 10-2 against a Norv turner offense so it's safe to say that Belicheck and D coordinator, Patricia, will be well prepared against Minnesota's rushing attack as well as containing their two TE set with Ellison and Rudolph. Belicheck also knows Zimmers defensive tendencies as he faced him last year when Zimmer was Cincy's defensive coordinator. I'm not worried about Brady this weekend, he will do what he always does. Win. The issues with the Patriots offense in week 1 were related to fundamental breakdowns more so than personnel issues and for Patriots backers, this is good news. As everyone knows, the key to either team covering will come down to the Vikings pass rush versus Brady's passing efficiency. Certainly, we will see more checkdowns by Brady and shorter routes...screens, draws, etc.. As effective as Minnesota was last week, I'm not convinced that Minnesota is strong enough in the secondary to not only contain Brady and Co but also Rodgers, Cutler and Stafford within their division. The media wants to hype this team as the new up and coming team but theyre going to have growing pains...which will begin this week.  

Yeah, and what about SF's pass rush and secondary against the Bears 4 receiver set? Perhaps, we should just fukk the side and play the total, over, which I'm still contemplating. Their still seems to be a public perception regarding the 49ers defense. This defense is not good. I think the Bears will move the ball on the ground and through the air for 4 quarters. And, theyre catching 7? The fukk outta here..... Not to mention, the 49ers field is absolutely atrocious as it holds no true home field advantage for the Niners offense. When they built the stadium, they put down the wrong grass. It doesn't adhere and players are slipping all over the fukking place. I anticipate a sloppier game than usual which is why I didn't hit the total, over, initially. I'm going to wait until later in the week to find more info about the field, in general.

Completely agree. I'm close to pulling the trigger on Buffalo this week. Media wants to hype the Vikings but its the Bills that will actually be the 'New Sexy." And, I love the Bears offense this weekend. I'll be adding Bears TT. Good luck

Yeah, it was great to see him manage a game effectively, however, I'm afraid we're going to see the old Staford reappear again this week.
