R.Gronkowski anytime TD scorer- 2/1 odds risking $500/1500

Mike Evans 2 or more scorers-7/1 odds risking $500/4000

Winner: Chiefs

Total:56

This has happened 21 times since the merger in 1970 and the team who won the first 2 games are 14-7 SU with the Saints the last to do it in 2018 against the Panthers.

This is only my opinion but what do you mean if teams actually tried to tackle L.J?  The League let him run around? Players run up to him and fall? No disrespect but this tells me you never played football before. You dont think there's a reason for all that? L.J no matter position u talking about is top 5 of all-time (my opinion) at making people miss on tackles dude can Literally stop on a dime at full speed or make any cut at full speed.Players like that will make u think other players are not trying to tackle him. By the way my top 3 are B.Sanders, L.Jackson and Dante Hall

I been listening to the sports talk radio with B.Herbert and Kristain Garic (New Orleans)and they were talking the narrative about it's hard to beat a team 3 times but they said its happened 21 times and the team that one the first 2 games have won the 3rd game 14 times.

 Nice write-up as usual. The reason why i think that Titans gave gave up 6.8 and 6.3 ypc against the Vikings and Packers is because as a defense coordinator(although the Vikings would be consider a running team with D.Cook) i would play more conservative against the pass against those teams as the Ravens and Browns i would rather stop their running game first(considered running teams) and make them pass against me.

I dont know but to me if im a offensive coordinator for the Ravens i mean its playoffs time im not playing no games i going work my strengths which is running but im going to spread you out and make you defend the whole field against my speed. Alot of you might say thats a high school or college tactic it wont work in the NFL theres speed everywhere in the NFL thats true but most NFL teams dont have the speed at quarterback as you do so thats the difference.

The Spread offense is being started at 7-8 yrs old although they might not pass that much at that level thats what their used of running on offense and looking across at the defense and making reads so these new school quarterbacks their more comfortable running those types of offenses. D.Watson, K. Murray, J.Allen, J.Hurts the list goes on and on make those guys play mostly Pro-Style offense and i think their not as successful not saying they wouldn't be good just not as successful. Those teams offense take off when their spreading the defense out and if they dont see no one open they on the pass just take off and get some positive yards.

Does it matter if M.Thomas is out

Raiders for the cover 

1-1

Been on the forum for awhile not as long as most of you but im posting for my first time in the football section of the forum to keep my record and hopefully add a little insight on some games. I come here everyday and just read other people's threads on games and not just specific names just any thread to get people's thoughts. I will share my opinion as I think I owe that at least to the forum as I sat back for years and gain SOME knowledge from some real good people. I dont know my record as I just know I'm in the green so I would like to post here to keep a track of my record. I'm not telling anybody to tail me or I got locks hell I might not pick a game but just give my opinion.

Tonight my thoughts on this game. The Browns come in hot riding a nice running game and the Ravens offense has looked mediocre. The Ravens will be getting back M.Andrews Lamar's safety valve along with Willie Snead. So u say Lamar's a bad passer? It will be Interesting to see how the Browns play Defense tonight. Do you come out in Man to Man and stack the box to stop the run or do you run  some deep zone and hope your front 7 stop the run game? To me this is a bad matchup for the Browns as I think the Ravens will stack the box to shut down the run and make Baker become a passer as I believe he's been hiding behind that run game and the Browns don't have one Receiver that scare the Ravens D. (Landry's good but he's not a deep ball guy just a possession Receiver).I also would Lean under but my thought on that is the Ravens will force Baker into some mistakes and maybe get short field position so do the Ravens capitalize with FGs or TDs?
