Have limited time but thought I would get this up so it will be condensed or as one of my favorite posters would say short and sweet . Lines reflect home teams
Giants / 49ers -10.5 / 45
Havnt researched but imagine Giants should be staying on the west coast for the early game this week . Giants have played two decent quarters out of 8 albeit against the Cards. Hard to back this team as I was sweating out my ML last week. SF game plan was weird as they pounded Christian. Lean 49ers 1H
Falcons / Lions -3.5 / 45.5
Ridder is 2-0 and has been serviceable because hes handing off to a gem that sets up him up for easier completions. Goff looked like the old Goff last week . My brain says Lions regroup if they can stop the run

Andrews back for the Shrimps is great for them as we all know the IR is plentiful . Im surprised they havnt swung a deal for Taylor ( seems logical ?) Colts defense has been pretty underrated . Tough for Richardson here but the Ravens D isnt what it was. Pretty sure we all love the Colts
Texans / Gettys -9.5 / 44.5
Seems like too many points as it is dropping as is the under I will refer to Getty on this one
Pats / Jets +3 / 37
Belly is 0-2 . Zach is horrific .I thought the line would be a PKem to be honest . Not sure what the look ahead was . Lean Pats ....Have at it

Broncos suck balls . Fucked me last week . Not sure why they got away from what worked the week before . Tua looks awesome and is in sync with the talent he has... which is baffling to me . Fish or nothing
Bills / Commanders -6.5 / 45
Not sure which team shows up for the Bills or the WFT for that matter. On paper Bills should dominate
BigD / Cards -13 / 43
Not much to say here. Boys defense should dominate this game and may be able to score enough to possibly cover the spread without the offense...one would think
Sac / Chiefs -13 / 48
Yikes
Eagles / Bucs +5.5 / 46
All I heard from the talking heads was that Baker has found his place ...gimme a break . Monday nite bailout should have this line move . I got nothing

Check this out...if Pitt loses tonight, I will be 1-14 to start out my year. Flipping a coin would put me at 7-8 or 8-7.
My Bears are about to implode. Another year of rebuilding wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. It's just that it may include the quarterback position. Which adds another 2 to 3 years on the rebuild.
I'll be at Arrowhead on Sunday, and FML.

Thanks for doing week 3.

I will spare everyone my long dissertations on the Chargers for week 3. I think they've lost their last two games against the Vikings. Danielle Hunter has averaged 2 sacks a game, so Kellen Moore will have to add another wrinkle to the offense.
I don't know how anyone can bet the Chargers right now until the defense at least looks slightly below average. Right now they are in the bottom of the league (w/out looking at stats, but I'm pretty sure), and not sure how that happens when you have Joey Bosa, Derwin James, Khalil Mack, JC Jackson (although he's still ramping up from injury), Asante Samuel Jr., and maybe throw in the Sebastian Joseph-Day there.
Either way, I would lean the Vikings too. Staley's defense has always been predicated on stopping explosive plays, but that's exactly what's been doing the Chargers in. The defense will be facing Justin Jefferson, so whether the Chargers win or not, he's going to eat anyway. Maybe a little more than usual, if you've watched the past 2 Chargers games.
I do like the Lions at home, at -3.5 (is that still the current line?). I'd probably buy a half as a lil' safety net.
Bills look good too.

Nice musings on Week 3 games, t-wreck.

Vikes +100 Will make a thread ....feeling frisky and want to get these in
The one and only line that was totally unexpected was Purple a home dog (albeit small) to the Powderpuff Girls. So much so that I can't pull the trigger on Soda. The only beauty is that the Chargers could run out to a 21 point lead and still lose. Good Luck.

The most interesting thing that I've read recently(wish I'd seen it earlier), involves Baker Mayfield.
Raise your hand if you know who Dave Canales is...probably no one, me included.
He was the Seahawks QB coach or passing game coordinator from 2018 to 2022. Prior to that he was the wr's coach there from 2010 to 2017.
He was a guy who was always next to Russell Wilson, every game day in day out. In 2022, he was next to Geno Smith. As we know Geno's career was on life support before getting to Seattle.
Now he is the Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator.
I'm just saying, at one point Baker Mayfield was the 1st overall pick in 2018. Miracles do happen, but usually not. In this case, the more reasonable thing that is happening is indeed great coaching.
Mayfield has a 69.1% completion percentage, best of his career. QBR is 66.4, highest of career. His air yards per attempt is 8.1, highest of career.
3 td's, 0 pics, 1 sack through 2 games.
The Buccaneers are 5 pt home underdogs to the Eagles on mnf. I mentioned in last week's thread that the Eagles were going to be a fade team for me in week 3, even before I knew their opponent. Then, it being a prime time game had me questioning that.
I do believe that I'm back to fading the Eagles here, and Tampa will be my only play for week 3.
Will dive into injuries and such before making my decision.

But Pitt didn't lose. Good way to begin the week and the road back. Same here.
