8:54 pm cst = Rams 28 Vikings 17
Halftime 28-20

14 games still open for picks all the up to Sunday kickoff.

14 of the points scored by RAMS were my fault... I was watching on the unlucky kitchen TV during those 2 TDS :cry2:
and I should know better having watched the Buffalo game in the kitchen last Sunday.

 

[Son of Butch]

Week 4 winners, rams, Cincinnati, Chicago, Detroit, green bay, Philadelphia, Indianapolis, new England, Jacksonville, Cleveland, Seattle, new Orleans, chargers, Baltimore, Kansas city. And also bet that clay Mathews gets another bs call on roughing the passer.

No problem, RAMS huge favorites and an expected pick... plus I'm a 'mythical dollar' millionaire and can afford it.

6 losses -600
Net Loss -$250

NEW ENGLAND 18
In an any given Sunday league risking 100 to win 18 seems so foolish... but it's a Thursday game.

CLEVELAND 127
I like home dogs. Even though Browns have yet to show they can win on Sundays and 2-18 vs Ravens in last 20 games.
BUFFALO 150
I expect a low scoring struggle, in that type of game Bills could win it on a lucky bounce or bad call.

NY Giants 240
PITTSBURGH 60
DETROIT 105
Miami 200 (Cinci coming off last second win and with Steelers next, they might overlook the Dolphins?)
NY JETS 86

Jacksonville 145 (Other than Andy Reid in the playoffs, who else can stop the CHIEFS high flying offense?)
Raiders 195

Arizona 180 (Cardinals are 0-4... time for a road win? Cards are 7-1 vs 49ers in their last 8 meetings)
PHILLY 55
Rams 25 (payoff is so short I hate it, but Rams are so good I just can't touch the Seahawks even as the home dog)
HOUSTON 50
Monday Night
SAINTS 35

my picks 7 favorites 8 underdogs

 

[greybeard]

New England

Bills

Jags (Chief's D is not all that great)

Cards (they aren't 'that'bad..are they? )

Dolphins

Ravens

Lions

Broncos

Steelers

Panthers

Chargers

Eagles..but only by 3pts

Rams

Cowboys (Houston really IS that bad)

Saints

Da Bears and the Butt Pirates have the weekend off)

 

[Bestoutwest]

my picks 7 favorites 8 underdogs

Some of those are pretty risky. The Giants and Bills are the two that really make me wonder if you're either mad or a genius. Maybe a mad genius? We'll know by next Monday.

Buffalo Bills 13
Tennessee 12

Cleveland 12
Baltimore 9 in overtime

NY Giants 31
Carolina 33 (come from behind win on last second 63 yard field goal)

All 3 were coin flip games in that they very easily could have gone either way.
Bet to win lines are set by the public and their tendency is to under value dogs and over value the favorites.
Especially risky are big road favorites vs a division rival such as Rams vs Seahawks today.
