CD Newsletter Week 16......

The 2 biggest injuries from week 16:

Eagles T Layne Johnson. Will be out the rest of the season, "might" return for the playoffs. But he has a torn tendon in his abdomen. That sounds wicked, how do you come back from that? He's had the best pass blocking win rate in the nfl this year. 83.2 overall pff grade.

Bengals T La'el Colins torn acl. He has played 91% of all snaps so far this year. As a matter of fact, the Bengals had the same starting 5 linemen for all 15 games this year. He's allowed 5 sacks. 

Jalen Hurts and Joe Burrow have been protected pretty well all year, things could get challenging down the stretch and come playoffs.

Bengals -260 division, +450 AFC, +800 SB

Nathaniel Hackett is fine in Denver, per Tom Pelissaero. 

mine opened -3.5 now -3 -115   

Someone likes the lucky ass Vikings +3.5, and I can't blame them. These dudes do it every frigin week. All the pressure on the Packers I'd guess.

No real opinion for me on this game. The weather is looking unseasonably warm this weekend across the country. Nothing close to what we had last weekend.

Er "fired" haha

anyone see this?   my god

*2022 record is 15-0 ATS of away divisional dogs who lost their two previous away games....the Broncos and the Bears qualify this week.

there are very few dudes who post useful info in the mains and this guy is one of em    

@BIGDTITLE

 Who are you referring to? Is this RLeith?

The ones to watch are the Fox and NBC panels. 

This week - They all took the Dolphins and TB (they won but no cover)
Last week - The entire NBC panel took Washington.

My favorite member that posts in the mains is chillinghard09. I think he posts every minute while watching a game while spazzing out. It's like a play-by-play on how is mind thinking. A minute into a game and he's sure he's lost the bet.  I feel for the guy, but it's hilarious to me at the same time. He's nothing like his forum handle.

Tua back in Concussion Protocol.   Kid needs to pack it in unfortunately

I don't remember a particular hit.

If so, how have the Dolphins missed it, and the symptoms. It's the second time they allowed him to play after getting messed up.

Last theory, they are using it as an excuse for his terrible performance. 

Imagine that lol. Tua made such head scratching unforced errors that he landed himself back in the protocol. 

@undermysac

 Peep the link. They’re assuming this play

Chargers 1H -2(-110) *1.10/1.00

1-7 so far this week.

@monkeebooger

 Ouch 

JMO ... unless there's an actual cause/reason for any trend, than that trend is totally random and due for regression to the mean

@Hugh_Jorgan

 Agreed.  Once any trend becomes identified it’s usually over due to fail 

@Hugh_Jorgan

 Up for week 17?

Here is a trend worth monitoring ...

Eagles without Lane Johnson (since 2020):

Loss vs DAL Loss vs TB Win at CAR

Loss vs KC Loss vs WSH Loss at DAL

Loss at ARI Win vs NO Loss at GB

Loss vs SEA Win vs DAL Loss vs BAL Loss at WSH

3-10 W-L | 21.6 PPG

Sure. I will write it tomorrow afternoon
