Clippers at Rockets is the main event tonight and it is going to be a must-watch game. The Clippers are undefeated when they are all healthy. The Rockets have been quietly playing and mastering Morey ball but have fallen a little bit when they lost to the Knicks. The Rockets currently lead the series 2-1 and have proven they are a tough challenge for the Clippers. Sure, both teams have shaken things up but the records still stand. This Clippers team has been so overvalued lately but they haven't proven much in my opinion. I'm taking the Rockets at home and trademarking "Moreyball" to the bank. ROCKETS +1 |

I can't seem to find a list of my threads or threads I have commented on. Am I missing something? Is it not a thing? If it's not a feature it should be imo. |

He needs to get good at getting rid of the ball faster. He has a great OL but he will lose all benefits if he holds onto the ball too long. He doesn't have an A list receiving core. Luck knew exactly when to let the ball rip on his dropbacks. Brissett in the preseason kept holding on too long and during the 2017 season when he was the starter, ask Colts fans and they will all tell you he took a lot of sacks because he was too slow to make a decision. Will he be Tyrod Taylor 2.0? A safe game manager QB that doesn't throw many INTs but will never win a game for you if you are trailing by 7 or more? 2. The Colts defense plays a relaxed zone scheme that rarely blitzes or applies much pressure. It literally is a bend but do-not-break defense as they will give up a ton of chunk yards. Now normally this could be a good thing especially if the QB they face is inexperienced or does not have the arm talent to exploit all the holes in the zones but Rivers is anything but that. This will be a game where the time of possession should easily be lopsided in the Chargers favor not because of the run game but because of the type of defense that Rivers will easily get chunk yards out of. However, the Chargers don't have a good home-field advantage. They did not play in the preseason either. They are missing a ton of starters and Bosa can get injured and sit out at any given moment in the game. The Chargers are usually slow week 1 of the season, I've noticed. Usually close games. I dunno for me it will all depend on Brissett really. If he can just hit his reads quickly and let the ball fly this game can easily go over and the Colts can cover but if he is still that same QB than goodbye. I might play this one live after the 1st qtr and if I don't like what I'm seeing from Brissett regardless of the score I might just pound the Chargers. You really made me reconsider Indy but I also don't see Brissett as a Tyrod Taylor 2.0. |

I've been looking at these alternative lines the last few days and man, I can't believe I've never used these things on my parlays of the past! I've used teasers before but not these. There are tons of lines that seem to have value if you combine them in a parlay. For instance: Bills @ Jets Over 33.5 (-260) Ravens @ Dolphins Over 31.5 (-280) Seahawks -3.5 (-220) I mean if you can string together 6 of these with 2 regular (-110/-120) bets, you can create a really nice parlay card that has a good chance of hitting. My question is, does using these alternative lines in parlays ever work? They seem too good to be true. I know the juice is high but if you string them together it seems like you can extract some good value compared to a typical parlay that will almost never hit but instead come close. If I'm doing a parlay its a 6-8 teamer and it's all full game lines. Benefit of this is you don't always find 6-8 plays you love so you're not forced to play a parlay every week. Instead you divide that money to your single plays which gives you a better return. If you're betting less than $100 a play stay away from parlays or pick your spots. |

I think 7 is was too many points to considering Melvin Gordon is out, Derwin James is out and the O Line for the Colts is getting overlooked because of Bosa and Ingram on the edge. I think the O Line should be good enough to where the running game gets established early with Marlon Mack who broke out last season and Brisset can show people he is ready to take on the challenge after Luck retired. I can't see TY Hilton being a difference maker because I'm assuming Casey Hayward will be guarding him but Ebron and Doyle can still tear up a defense. Colts defense is also amazing and the Chargers don't have a home field. This could be a spot where I go heavy on the Colts while everyone expects them to take a large step back but I don't see it in this matchup. Let me know know your thoughts. |

I live in Chicago and call myself a Bears fan but not tonight. First off, let's talk about Trubisky. This guy has been up and down since he has been drafted and I'm not as high on him as some of Bears fans are. His accuracy is horrible and I don't see that changing in one off season. His ability to scramble is great but doesn't help his passing game or his wide receivers. Speaking of Bears wide receivers they are below average and add the injuries to Miller and Burton it doesn't look good. While Allen Robinson will be covered by Jaire Alexander one of the Packers 1st round draft picks who has great potential. Let's not forget about the Bears defense which off course stars Khalil Mack. However, they did lose Amos to the Packers. While the Bears defense was amazing last season I don't see them as dominant as this season because of the new coordinator and their losses during the off season. While in this game thought, the O line for the Packers is still solid and you won't get a perfect game from them but they will do their job. I have no doubt in Aaron Rodgers and their new head coach simply because the chemistry shines between them. Also, this is a new offense which means while it's new to Green Bay but it's also new to the teams that will face it. What Naggy was last year I can see LeFleur being that for the Packers. Not to mention Devante Adams and Aaron Jones who is a running back which Green bay has lacked for a long time. The Packers D Line was heavily upgraded this off season and has potential to be their best asset besides Rodgers. In all honesty I don't see the Bears winning unless Naggy pulls some shenanigans he saved from last season. I'm taking Packers +3 for x10 my normal unit. Thanks for reading BOL to everyone tonight |

First off, crazy finish in Portland last night. Fell asleep after halftime but ended the day 3-2 after that. Now onto today. I have said after game 1 Warriors in 4 and I still believe that. Rockets can’t hang with the Warriors. PJ Tucker ain’t s***. Chris Paul isn’t what he was and the way Harden has been playing and he will play that way today they’re not winning. Capela is irrelevant when the Warriors play the Hamptons five. This could backfire but I haven’t seen anything from the Rockets that scares me. Warriors ML x1.5 BOL |
