One player who is a mainstay in the linuep, and thankfully, is Mr. Terrell Owens. I turned the game off at half time and Owens had already garnered 147 yards and a touchdown. Not too bad. And big thanks to Fan IQ for this pic...
No word on if the popcorn is considered a prop, or if T.O. was just hungry. Either way, he continues to be OK with ME!
And now to the picks. It's been a few weeks, but it may have been for the better as my fiancé went 13-3 in her first week making some selections. But hey, whatever brings in the money.
Jacksonville (+6.5) over INDIANAPOLIS
I liked this one a lot better when it was at 7, but I'm not going to let a little movement scare me away. Indy barely beat Kansas City on the road a few weeks ago and will be facing a defense that may just win the division - assuming they can win this one straight up. Thankfully, that's why we get points.
New York Giants (-1.5) over CHICAGO
It's like the battle of the awful quarterbacks. Since we'll just go ahead and net them out, you have to just go with the team that has the better supporting cast. Of course, if the G-Men decide that they'll be cute and kick the ball to Devin Hester all day, then this is pointless. Assuming common sense is a bitch sometimes, but if I think they'll win straight up, 1.5 isn't much to give. I hope.
ST. LOUIS (-3) over Atlanta
St. Louie looks a hell of a lot better lately than the 2-9 that their record shows. They've won two of three, they have Stephen Jackson back, and they're playing Atlanta for crying out loud. Thinking here is the line was set so low because the Rams have a back-up QB playing. Vegas obviously hasn't watched Marc Bulger much this season.
San Francisco (+3) over CAROLINA
So I pick up Arizona's defense last week in my league because they're playing a Niners team that put up about 15 combined points over the past month. That worked really well. If Frank Gore looks anything like he did last week, it'll be enough to cover. Good thing that no one will have to actually witness this game outside of the Tanner Family and Charlotte. Yes. That was a Full House reference. You love it.
Good luck, all.
