Thoughts on SD? I'm leaning the other way

Nice! Those are actually the two games in I'm this week. Oakland is slightly better than SD anyway, plus healthier and off a bye...I'll take the points in a divisional game like that for sure. They will win the battle in both trenches, run the ball well. Like it!
On Arizona on Monday. Fully expect DD win there. Baltimore has no pass rush, no secondary, no playmakers, couldn't beat SF, sure as hell won't beat Zona. Not on the road. Cards still moving the ball, just playing sloppy and not converting. I expect them, especially after two losses, to clean up their mistakes and roll at home. No way Balty wins. |

Josh Norman has been playing on a Pro Bowl level, he should have a good game against Tyler Lockett. Those two guys, along with their great LB corps and DL against the worst OL in the league will cause a lot of limitations for the Seahawks offense which makes me believe they can't cover 7, let alone 13. The Panthers have been capable of scoring and Cam Newton finally plays up to his potential. Remember those two teams met in the playoffs in 2014 where one pick-six by Chancellor in the end zone made the difference. The Panthers outgained a Seahawks team that was much better than this time. Carolina is on revenge and against a defense that misses Bobby Wagner and Jordan Hill, they should be capable of scoring enough to keep this game atleast very close. Would this be the game to tease with the pats? No matter how futile Seattle looks on offense, they always seem to score some big special teams TD or connect on a crazy deep ball for a quick TD. That, plus Carolina sucks on offense with NO weapons other than Olsen...who I think Seattle can shut down...plus home field...regardless tho, low scoring game I'd take the points

Giveaways and missed opportunity is why this game was close. Not Kirk Cosuin killing the falcons defense. For sure, I get ya. As a counterpoint Cousins made some big throws and ATL couldn't really stop him - point being that last pick his WR fell down, or Wash is marching down the field for a FG or TD. And they didn't have their top 2 options. Plus they had a 2nd unit secondary in who did play pretty well, and still forced two picks. That's just how their games have been going - wild close games. I'd rather take the points in close games.

I mean ATL couldn't torch the redskins without Culliver and Hall, no reed and desean and still got manhandled most of the game. Their run D did look good tho against one of the better rushing attacks in the league. But man, a Cousins was killing them without his top 2 weapons...I think Bree's can do the same.

To finish my post....i do like points in close divisional games. No Julio, I think it comes down to a FG at the end

Always appreciate your inputs over the years. I hate betting on bottom Dumpster dives like the saints, but other than the Houston game all the games ATL has won has been close/nail biters

Minny one of the best home/road splits in the league. KC must absolutely be deflated after blowing the bears and Denver game. Couldn't beat Chicago at home with a beat up OLine and suspect defense, no Alshon or Royal...Poo Poo.
Backing Minny here for sure

Right now, I have no confidence that the Niners can do that on the offensive end. The offense is one Kapercrap pick-six away from imploding. Think about that. One more bad int and this team could quit. How can you put money on a team teetering the way the Niners are, unless you have some info that they've "fixed their problems" or you actually believe that effort alone will fix it. Exactly. They've had matchups to exploit last few games but couldn't execute the simplest plays. If they did they cover vs Green Bay and maybe even win. I have zero confidence in them executing a broken offense against a good run defense which takes away their bread and butter. Same formula - run, run, sack, punt. Get a drive going, 10 yard penalty, sack, sack, punt. Get in near the end zone - run, sack, penalty, sack, FG. Giants or no play. Under ok.

I like KC too, they are slightly overvalued here, should be closer to -7.

First, you're saying a team that's 3-15 on the road since 2013 is gonna come into the Georgia dome, one of the best home fields, without their top 2 CBs, and 2 of their top 3 receiving targets, a turnover prone QB,and win? Really? What I do agree with is that Wash should be able to run the ball well and could stay in the game if they do that well. I think Atlanta is overvalued in this spot, but I do think they win. I'll probably tease it down.

Don't u think they have revenge on their minds? Your statement makes absolutely zero sense. Carson's gonna play half behind and timid? Ok

Not a bad bet by any means, I'm just not sold on it completely
