Jacksonville + Like the home dog of almost double digits in a game that is usually played pretty close in this match up of division foes.

Houston + Every week it seems like Houston plays about 58 minutes of football only to find a way to lose in the last two minutes. I think they might be due for a full 60 minutes of play this week.

Cleveland + Seems like generous points for the Browns team which usually keeps the game close with a good defense and some ball control.

San Francisco + An awful lot of points for Seahawks to be laying coming of a huge Monday Night win. Looking for a letdown from the Hawks and a 49ers cover.

New Orleans + Another match up of teams which typically pound the hell out of each other. Like the double digit points in this one.

Az - End of season west coast game. Wash does not seem like a team that has anything together. Warner starts to play his game.

Det - Favre this and Favre that... the reality is that the Packers SUCK. Not that Detroit is much better, but it is audition time for all their players. Who wants a job next year?

Clev - These games are always close. Do not see any reason to change here. Cold, snow, wind... low scoring game.

Sea - Way too many points, but SF wants Reggie and Holmgren knows the value of home field advantage in the playoffs.

Bal - Oh how the mighty have fallen... Bal defense is just getting absolutely NO RESPECT. That has to piss them off to holy hell.

Carolina over TB...IM BETTORS play which i liked own my own...here's his view on the game "The Bucs were fortunate to escape from Baton Rouge with a win over the Saints last Sunday. While I normally hate laying points almost as much as I hate listening to the inane comments of Fred Smerlas, I can’t escape the fact that the Panthers are pretty tough and possess a vastly superior offense to that of the visiting Bucs.

In another game with huge playoff implications, I can’t see the Bucs doing much with the ball, and while I may rue spotting greater than a field goal, I see the Panthers as at least 6 points better than their divisional brethren from Tampa Bay. The Panthers giving 5 1/2 points will be another $330 risk in Week 14. "


Minny over STL...said last week Minny was a play on team until they lose nothing has changed...have had them the past couple weeks not getting off now...STL has stunk all year Minny should coast in this one...

KC over Dallas...IMBETTORS other selection...really just a fill in play as i really am not too high on this card this week with a lot of DD spreads im gonna stay away from SU bets this week...here is his take on the game...Let me say that if the Week 14 card were an animal, it would be a hyena, ugly and laughable. The prime-time games both have a stench and there’s a large number of double-digit and touchdown-plus favorites all showing that the linesmaker has adjusted in hopes of shoring up bleeding bookmakers and sportsbooks around the world. However, amongst this flotsam and jetsam, the Kansas City Chiefs fly into Big D to face the Cowboys in what has the making of a good contest.

Each is playing for the playoffs and one comes off a rousing divisional win while the Cowboys enter off a big divisional loss. It also has the perfect NFL line; that is, the home side is favored by 3 points. But in this case, I see a visiting team whose passing strength plays into the home side’s weakness. I know the Chiefs failed miserably a few weeks ago in Buffalo, but when this team is on, it’s really on, and it appears to be adjusting to life without Priest Holmes quite nicely. Let’s play the team from the stronger conference and take the Chiefs with 3 points for $330.



Cinny over Cleve....another game im gonna use in a teaser instead of laying this many points...basically im fading cleveland in this spot as they dont have the defense to stop what has become one of the most lethal offenses in football....ive been on this horse all year and im not gonna get off.....still like them as my dark horse to win the SB...

Pats over Bills...along with Minny and Carolina this game i like...Pats seem to be coming around they have the division all but sealed...never write off a Belichek team in the postseason....ill lay the small points on the road with a team that is also used to playing in difficult conditions...

Buffalo - they have a great chance to beat this battered NE team straight up, I'll gladly take the points.

St. Louis - Steven Jackson is just the type of powerful back to break the Vikings defense.

Houston - I love these dogs today...Houston is playing better finally, Tennessee not so much.

Philadelphia- NYG always plays down to their competition, and they're favored by way too much on the road.

Lions - They'll keep it close against a bad GB team.

CAROLINA - Panthers look for 3 wins a row and start a roll going into playoffs

NEW ENGLAND - Brady and company get it done against the reeling Bills

Raiders@Jets---take the Raiders minus the 3......flat better team in all areas even though the record doesnt reflect it.



skins@Cards---take the skins minus the 3....they need this win and they should be able to pressure Warner into some mistakes early.



Lions@Pack---take the Pack minus the 6....Dome team in 9 degree weather = loss


texans@titans---take the titans minus the -5.5....texans are playing for a bush and I dont mean Beer

Washington Redskins -4 Redskins still in playoff picture

NY Giants -9.5 No quarterback for Philly

Pittsburgh -6.5 Chicago won't score many points and Pittsburgh should be able to score at least 20

Cincinnati -12.5 Rookie Quaterback for Cleveland

Kansas City +3 should be a close game.

BEARS-
This week's version of the Bengals/Steelers of last week. The "paper tigers" keep winning against the frauds.

JAGUARS-
Line is too low for such a QB mismatch. The favorite lines, however, have been too low ALL year.

DOLPHINS-
Momentum rolls to the west coast

CHIEFS-
Still don't like Tuna out of the NFC East.

BUCCANEERS-
Gruden outFOXs Panthers. Coaching mismatch.

Cincinatti minus the ponts vs Cleveland...Bengals secondary loves taking the ball away (3 Picks vs Pit) and Browns starting a rookie QB...this spells disaster...Palmer will shred weak CLeveland secondary...

Indianapolis minus the points vs Jacksonville...Colts extremely focused on wrapping up home field throughout the playoffs, and will not rest untill they do...if they slip up this year, it wont be today...Indy D is very solid and will harass Jags backup QB...

New England minus the points vs Buffalo...Bills very disenchanted after last weeks major 4th quarter meltdown...Patriots still banged up, but improving every week, and as playoffs get closer, I suspect they will turn some of their magic on...

Oakland minus the points vs N.Y. Jets...although Oaklnad is starting a backup, it may be good since Collins has been stinking it up..also Jets have been playing with a 3rd stringer almost all season, so that cancels each other out...Raiders still have more weapons with Jordan, Porter and a banged up Moss...

New York Giants...minus the points vs Philadelphia...after getting embarassed 42-0 one would think Philly would be tough this week, but I see the Giants wanting to kick their NFC East rivals in the throat while theyre down...look for Eli and Tiki to go off...

Buffalo - Revenge, home field, and an overrated NE team. I'll take points

Oakland - the Jets are flat out HORRIBLE. Oakland must get something going

Dallas - I think that Parcells will have them primed at home

Green Bay - I think they are the much better team. Detroit is in disarray

Atlanta - They must get back on track, and the Saints are horrible.

seattle-alexander going to TD record and might get 5 today.
pittsburgh-orton won't be able to handle blitzburgh.
oakland-martin is limping and lamont will be pumped for his return to new york.
tennessee-houston has to keep losing to get reggie bush.
baltimore-14.5 points is a lot to cover with reed back for the ravens.

tie breaker 386
 
Rams...Think Minnesota's streak comes to an end today, so I will take the points here. This one goes down to the wire.

Jags...Jags keep this one close at home like they usually do against the Colts. Take the home dog.

Titans...Texans have quit on the season, Titans in a blowout.

Bengals...Browns will not score too many today with their rookie QB. Bengals in a blowout.

Chiefs...Chiefs outright here. LJ should be able to run on Dallas defense. Take the points.

Oakland: The Jets have packed it in for the year & won't be much of a problem for the Raiders this afternoon.

Houston: They have played pretty decently of late & are capable of an outright win today.

New York Giants: The Eagles don't belong on the same field with the Giants. The G-Men get their offense clicking today.

San Francisco: The Seahawks aren't that impressive imo & are getting extra points for their 42 pt win over an hapless Eagles team.

Green Bay: They are playing well as of late & should dominate this game from start to finish.

carolina (-) vs tampa bay...........i don't think the bucs are anywhere near as good as there record and carolina starting to play well again. good value getting carolina at home laying less than a touchdown.

miami (+) vs san diego.......sometimes san diego a tendacy to now show up vs so so teams. fish might be a little better than most people think. i think they keep this one close.

green bay (-) vs detroit..........this is simply a play against the lions, they really suck bad.

jacksonville (+) vs indianapolis...........colts are not going undefeated, that is all there is to it. line way overinflated due to the colts greatness. jax at home will keep this one within 7.

san fran (+) vs seattle.............everybody on seattle's bandwagon now. how can they even get up for this game. line currently at 16 and i will take any nfl team getting more than two td's.

Dolphins - They play good teams tough.

Ravens - They will pressure Jake into mistakes with blitzes. Way too many points.

Chiefs - They are clicking right now. Dallas in turmoil.

Packers - Snowing in Green Bay. Always favors Packers.

Cardinals - Passing attack vs. a ground game. Passing attack is at home and gets points. They may win outright.

MNF: 38 points

all late games...

KC
Dallas secondary is hurting and the Chiefs running game is a force. Bledsoe has lost whatever confidence he had early in the season.

Washington
Arizona is 4-8 ATS and the 4 wins were over SF(twice) STL (when Bulger got hurt) and the Titans. The Redskins are a pretty good team and they should pressure Warner and the one-dimnsional Cards offense.

Miami
MIA is 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings.

Green Bay
Detroit has lost 13 straight games at Lambeau.

New Orleans
NO is 4-1 ATS in their last five meetings.

General -

You're killin me here, buddy.

I put together a potential 5-0 day in this thread.

I understand the reason for the rule of 75 posts, so that you can generate a community here.

If ya wanted me to go get 75 posts, I would have. I'da just wished people luck 75 times and start pointless threads.

I'd rather have the guy with 11 posts that gives write-ups and winners, then the guy with 75 that says good luck!
