Wish Dillon was healthy last week against Pittsburgh, I would like to see what Pittsburgh can do against a complete team, and Philly wasn't it today.

Complete team or not, Pittsburgh is a VERY good team. Any team that can beat the last 2 undefeated teams in the league, injuries or not, are good. They stopped New England's massive winning streak, and then stopped an awesome Philly team. But, I will put money on them choking come playoff time.

Bill Cowher, mind you, has to be one of the best coaches of all-time. I thought this team was going to the basement in the AFC, not just their division, and look at them now, first place and not looking back.

Edited to add: Who the hell would ever bet against N.E.?
Did you see that Vinatieri TD pass yesterday? That [played looked like it was from a peewee football team's playbook, and the Rams looked like idiots there.

I had a shitty week, down 3 units. Detroit stunk up the joint, houstan didnt show up, and neither did the eagles.

My beloved pats won, but i didnt have the balls to bet on em. Shitty shitty week....worst so far this year. up 11.5 units now on the year. Im teasin indy down to -1 with the over at 52 tonight.....the regular over/under is 58 in that game, i can not remember a number so high in a long long time

You definatly got value in that O/U line, I see it at 60.5 in alot of places already.

I think his O/U of 52 is based on a parlay, since the Colts are also favoured by 7.

If Moss wasn't hurt, I'd jump all over those numbers. However with Moss not playing tonight, you won't get as many points out of the Vikings. I'd probably pick Indy -7 or -1 and the under.

(Of course if Moss was playing, the spread would be lower so in essence you'd simply be picking the Colts to win)

yeah it's a tease, you pick two bets and move the line 6 in either direction....thats why i got the colts at -1 and the over at 52

well, luckily that fourth quarter was full of action and the teaser hit.....somewhat salvaging a pretty shitty week.... i was sweating when it was only 14-14 late in the third, but it worked out. This was one of those games where you could have teased either team, with either the over or the under, and won.
