I know its only a couple tools but I just wanna start off by saying this... I post on here for fun, as a hobby, I don't have to but I choose to. It takes guts to put your name/reputation out there to be criticized but I go even further.... I associate my picks with a paragraph explanation which is even more difficult to do.
Making picks is easy, explaining them takes balls! So to the few critics who only pop-up when I lose... F-U!
Onto the IMPORTANT stuff! we-re 9-5 these past 2 weeks, not great but a modest 2gm roll, hopefully turns into a STREAK thiswk!
Sucks we Lost Chi-8 (2u) bc I had the game pretty pegged, but that 8-pt spread left too big a hole to cover, had a bad feeling that might happen but oh well! Jacobs caught me off guard but the zoneD sitting back and picking Eli was dead on, oh well - 'calling the game' and losing feels better than missing it completely! but heres the picks....
Week 6 Picks:
Pittsburgh +2.5 @ NYJ
I posted this play in my TNF thread and I also explained it in my leans thread, ill copy and paste that here bc my logic hasn't changed:
LeBeau's a HOF coach EASY and will have that BS underneath game completely stifled! Jets might not score twice, no they will but no way over 14! ... unless they develop a rushing attack that controls the game, which "could" happen but I honestly think Pitt will crowd the box and force Geno to beat them... and he WONT, w/o Holmes, he has weak weapons and doesn't have the luxury of having ALL DAY bc Pitt wont fall for that Underneath TE attack early and force them to hold back their Blitzing LBs... Point is; Steelers will have a Pass-Rush and force Geno to make plays, & he wont, period. Offensively, now with LeVeon Bell; who is a legitimate Starting RB, gives the Steelers the diverse Offense they've been begging for! Now they will establish a running game and open up their passing game. Their WR are talented but without a running game whatsoever, ppl weren't scared or crowding the box and playing for the pass; thus thwarting their aerial attack. I honestly think Pitt wins something like 35-10. The Jets Stout Defense does scare me a bit BUT, I think Pitts D Vs. Jets O will be such a mismatch, the Jets TOP-5 Defense wont have a shot to impact this one.... Maybe im driving an empty band wagon but I don't mind. My motto is "Observe the masses closely.... & then do the complete opposite" (Laying 6 Units)
Jacksonville +27 @ Denver
LOL Say what?!? I said this since preseason, I'll never bet JAX while Gabbert's their QB but when Henne takes over, im on em! I didn't prepare to bet AGAINST the Broncos or be PLUS 4 SCORES! But I am and I love it! Henne is a slinger and will probably match his QBs with TOs but hes got 2 talented WRs and will use them. Denver is classy and will possibly rest their starters once up big. Getting 4 scores leaves such a HUGE Back-Door here, anyone on Denver will be sweating an entire half! I could see Jax cutting it UNDER 20 (lol, funny that's a positive!)... Henne changes this one completely and the 27 is a sick bonus IMHO! (Laying 3.5 Units)
Skins +5.5 @ Dallas
Another week for RGIII to get healthy and work with Pierre. Dallas hung with a tough Denver team and every1 has that fresh while Skins being terrible is also fresh. Funny how RG3 is held accountable for Washingtons awful start but his #s ARE NOT BAD! this isn't Eli, he's played ok and not at 100%. Skins D is just HORRIBLE! I think Skins win outright but I could see a FG game that comes down to the wire. (Laying 2 Units)
