I know its early to be talking about the NFL, but they are offering some very high long term prices on two really strong bets for the new season.
The NFC East is tightly matched, and even though I'm an Eagels fan, I can't help but think of the probability of this equally rated team the Washington Redskins winning it! The OL knows its job like no other teams. With Clinton Portis back and Ladell Betts backing him up make the redskins one of the best running teams in football. That opens up the passing game in which Washington has multiple choices. The above average defence will be well rested in every game with this time consuming offence. All 4 teams in the east are great, but i believe Washington will be at least 2nd at the end of the season, making this 7,50 price a gift. Take it now, while you can! In the NFC south, The Carolina Panthers have this very weak division wrapped up before the season even starts. New Orleans was charity last year. The Panthers real opponents would be the Atlanta Falcons, only Mr Vick has run into a brick wall. Details regarding that I will not give, but given the probability of him out for half of the season, there is nothing that can stop Carolina from winning this division, so at 3,50 whats not to like? N.F.L NFC East Winner Washington Redskins = 7,50 NFC South Winner Carolina Panthers = 3,50 |

Its unlike me to give tips on a the horses, but this I couldn't let slip by.

Hey W.HI.P I started watching your NFL picks near the ending of last season and im very very impressed. I havent seen anyone as good as a capper as you. Unfortunately I did not bet on any games last year.
I was analyzing all your picks since you started posting (for the season, not including play-offs) and unless I didn’t calculate properly you hav gone 53 for 74 which is 71.62%. That’s crazy. Anythin above 60% is very good. I don’t think I have seen anyone as consistent as you either. I am aware of your betting strategy, many people use it cuz proline requires a minimum of 3 picks. I really hope you post ur plays for the entire coming up NFL season. Ur a hype capper still. Lookin forward to seenin your picks. Thanks. |
Hello makavelli.
Its actually 64 for 88 here at the Cellar on the NFL, but thats not counting the first weeks of the season, which i did so well that i decided to come here in the first place. Count the pre-season as well, and its over 80%. Not to mention the Chargers winning their division and the superbowl of course! The year to come will be much more predictable, thats because of thursday and Monday night Football. The media's found a way to assist them in pocketing double the money with this Thursday addition. But then again, media influence is one of the main reason for cracking the 80% barrier. I predict this season after the superbowl, we'll be over 90%. I can't believe they're trying to show the Patriots as the favorites to win it. Thats simply crazy! Free money coming, and as long as Undertoad has no problem with this thread running over the football season, I will be here, posting the keys to free money with greater analyses of why each result will come, but also how to wager properly. |
Bet when you see an edge.
In this years wimbeldon there are a few. Some of the so called favorites either are not looking at it as a realistic goal, or it's not their kinda turf. A.Mauresmo, IMO, is looking at this tournament as her #1 goal. Based on that and her obvious strength, which is required to win this rich grand slam, I would say she's the most probable winner. A.Mauresmo winning it gives 7.00, making it a great bet. All Hantuchova needs is to put on a few pounds and we'll be seeing her in grand slam semi's all the time. Dementieva ma pull up an upset or two judging by the draw she's likely to get. Wimbeldon~*~Ladies A.Mauresmo = 7.00 (7/1) E.Dementieva = 51.00 (51/1) D.Hantuchova = 67.00 (67/1) |
Everything looks like Donovan McNabb will start the season 100% healthy for the Philadelphia Eagels this year!
If this lasts all year long unlike the past 2 years, this team becomes a top contender for this years superbowl! They should win 12-13 games, and from there on, the Bears, Panthers and the Redskins should Portis also last the year, would be the only obstacles in the way to them winning the NFC championship. Still a long way to go, but certainly optimistic! |
Wimbeldon~*~Ladies
All 3 girls are now in the round of 16! A.Mauresmo = 7.00 (7/1) is looking very solid, and will be almost impossible to beat. She is the main reason i even considered adding the WTA in this thread. E.Dementieva = 51.00 (51/1) is a workhorse and is always in contention, although she will have to pull off at least 2 major upsets to make it to this grand slam final. She is capable. D.Hantuchova = 67.00 (67/1) is playing better than she's ever played, but faces a brick wall in Serena Williams to make it to the quarter finals. Strength is a major factor in this wimbeldon, Serena certainly has a lot more of that than thin Hantuchova, but you never know. Should Mauresmo face Serena however, I would be placing a fortune on Mauresmo in addition to what i've already wagered on her winning this grand slam. |
N.F.L
A F C North 1)Cincinnati Bengals 2)Baltimore Ravens 3)Cleveland Browns 4)Pittsburgh Steelers 2 Great teams, 1 growing mediocre team, and one very bad team falling to the pit of the NFL. The Bengals offence is one of the best in the game and will be a contender from the AFC. The Ravens defence is not enough to win it, they need some offence with that. The Browns are a prime example of how to build a franchise. It might take a few years still, but they're well on their way. The Steelers on the other hand need some serious changes and will finish below .300 this year. A F C East 1)New York Jets 2)New England Patriots 3)Buffalo Bills 4)Miami Dolphins This division is up for grabs, The Dolphins could win it just as easily. My point is that the Patriots will not. Miami is living one of the final years in greatness as their elite players age. The Bills have some early problems this season, otherwise they would probably be favorites in my eyes. The Jets look the best here with their electrifying offence and the great work thats been done with the defence. BTW, next year, the Patriots are a guarenteed fourth. A F C South 1)Indianapolis Colts 2)Tennessee Titans 3)Jacksonville Jaguars 4)Houston Texans The Colts remain the superior team here, and should have no problem winning it. The Titans will be better than last year, but still not good enough to win it...Wildcard? I hear a lot of talk about the Jaguars, but i'm not buying it, they may however take 2nd. The Texans remain 1 of the 3 worst teams in the game despite their excellent RB addition. A F C West 1)San Diego Chargers 2)Denver Broncos 3)Kansas City Chiefs 4)Oakland Raiders The Chargers are amongst the absolute elite, and should remain so for years to come, superbowl contenders? The Broncos and the Chiefs are mediocre teams that should be around .500 for the year. Oakland finally got rid of Moss, they will be better than last year. N F C North 1)Chicago Bears 2)Minnesota Vikings 3)Green Bay Packers 4)Detroit Lions No competition here, The Bears remain once again Superbowl contenders. This division is a joke, no competition. Who takes 2nd is up for grabs, each of the remaining teams have great holes in various positions. N F C East 1)Washington Redskins 2)Philadelphia Eagels 3)Dallas Cowboys 4)N Y Giants Giants If Portis lasts the year, the Redskins will be in the playoffs, otherwise this division belongs to the Eagles. The Cowboys are a great team, as are the Giants, making this division the best of them all. N F C South 1)Carolina Panthers 2)Atlanta Falcons 3)New Orleans Saints 4)Tampa Bay Bucs A one horse race here as the Panthers have no compeition. The Falcons with or without Vick should take 2nd from the last year charity Saints. The Bucs still need some serious work with their offence...that should take some years still. N F C West 1)San Francisco 49ers 2)St Louis Rams 3)Seattle Seahawks 4)Arizona Cardinals Gore and the 49ers, despite some weakness in the defence should rap up this division with the Rams hot on their heels. The Seahawks are on the fall. Arizona is a question mark, and i may be mistaken putting them in last. |

W.HI.P I was just wondering if you are going to post your picks for the NFL preseason. Thanks.
|
Makaveli, I will be giving a few, but don't be expecting the regular season free money stuff.
The pre-season is about secondary players, formations, and by no means do any games indicate how a team will preform in the regular season. If I ran a team, i would probably be 0-4, 1-3 in the pre-season on indifference alone. A little hint i'll give though. Teams who rely on 1-2 key players are more than likely to lose more games than win. Teams who have a wide variety of above average talent in various position will get the wins. Also, teams who haven't established all their starters will more than likely play with more passion as their is competition between the players. Details like that i will reveal as i see them, and give predictions accordingly. Overall, be patient, september 6th is right around the corner. |
NFL Preseason Week 1
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Clevland Browns(-3,0) - Kansas City Chiefs The Chiefs are one of those teams that depend on 1-2 key players. L.Johnson and T.Gonzales should play a limited amount of time in this game. The Clevland Browns on the other hand are a very well rounded team and should win this preseason game pretty easily. Bet on the Browns! Washington Redskins - Tennessee Titans (-2,5) How many times do you think V.Young is gonna risk injury in a preseason game and take off with the ball? Exactly! One of the key weapons for the Titans will not be in action. The Washington Redskins will run the ball 65% of the game... Its what they know. Betts should work a bit, portis will get a drive or two. Easy practice for the redskins. i'm not so certain they'll win in a game that has no meaning, but there is absolutely no reason that they should be underdogs in this one. Bet on the Redskins I've bet on both those games a little, even though I lack info on what to expect from the teams. Its more for entertainment than profit at this time. |

Ok, so we had a few wins.
Obviously i went with Seattle yesturday against the Chargers. L.Tomlinson's Chargers,P.Manning's Colts and L.Johnson's Chiefs All lost. Teams that depend on key players. I'm actually in a position at this particular moment, being 100% on all my actual NFL bets this weekend to be after quite a large sum of money on either or both the Philadelphia Eagels and the Denver Broncos. The SF 49ers being the last of the teams that rely on 1 player(F.Gore), makes betting on the Denver Broncos second nature. The Eagels choice was more of a love i have for the team. I really hope the news around Reid's family has no effect on how the team plays tonight. Despite this early success on the pre-season, I will not be giving many tips as they are not as trustworthy as the games to come with the regular season. Week 1 of the regular season which kicks off september 6th has some very interesting games. A possible superbowl match: Chicago Bears VS San Diego Chargers. This match-up favours the Bears as L.Tomlinson goes up against the greatest run defence in the NFL. AFC(North) Clash between the Cincinnati Bengals VS Baltimore Ravens. One of the best passing teams against the greatest pass defence in the NFL. Indianapolis Colts VS New Orlean Saints, looks to be the easiest game to pick out of all the games in week 1. All other week 1 games are pretty closely matched. Most away teams being the stronger, making picks tough. However, like every year, the spread fixers always leave gifts to jump on in the early weeks.. |
NFL Week 2 Pre-Season pointspreads
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Philadelphia Eagels(-3,0) - Carolina Panthers The Carolina Panthers ARE a one dimensional team, However, they are a 2007 playoff team. But, they are not a great team. The main reason this team is already with one foot in the playoffs is because there is absolutely N.O competition in the division. You Saints fans out there should know better. Falcons fans have already given up, facing reality. Bucs fans, after last years unbelievably bad offence(shame shame) can see little day light. The Philadelphia Eagels ARE a superbowl team with McNabb. However, they play in the best division in football. The Pre-season as I said last week, is not about the main players. Its mostly about secondary players and patterns... jobs. Its also an exhibition. Home teams will win most games! You see, most people already knew this. It is no suprise to me that most people that wagered their money on home teams in week 1 lost. This week and the the next 2 weeks of the pre-season will see MANY home teams winning. Its innevitable! As an Eagels fan, I would not be upset at all if the Eagels finished 0-4. I understand. However, it unlikely that these Phillie fans will not taste victory in a home game. What better team to beat than the Carolina Panthers. A team the Eagels match up against amazingly in most battles position wise, but also in offencive/defencive styles. Bet on the Eagels Buffalo Bills(-3,0) - Atlanta Falcons The Bills really are a good team! They have a great chance this week at home to demonstrate some great offence in front of their home fans against this pretty weak Falcons defence. Bet on the Bills!!! New York Jets(-4,5) - Minnesota Vikings If this game was a regular season match, I would bet on the Jets even if they were 13 point favorites! The Vikings are a Run defence, the Jets have an amazing passing game. Of course, this is not the regular season, so we are talking about different match-ups. However, the Jets are playing at home, and that, in the pre-season has a lot of meaning. Bet on the Jets |
WHIP, i have mad respect for your betting tips. But, dammit, man. as a Cowboys fan to an eagles fan.....LEARN HOW TO SPELL EAGLES! I mean......there's a fucking chant for chrissakes
E A G L E S EAGLES! fly eagles, fly.....on the road to victoreeeeeeee! that is all. |
lol
|
Adrian Peterson is very impressive!
He will be a factor in this years NFL for the Minnesota Vikings. I do expect Brandon Jacobs of the New York Giants to provide the NY.Giants an amazing running game! Some people have yet to truly understand how good Jacobs actually is! What some people seem to be forgetting is Clinton Portis!! The Redskins are a force to be reckoned with! Betts makes it an amazing 1-2. Another impressive thing about the Redskins is its passing game! Defences will be forced to play the run with Portis opening up the backfield for the easy passes. Lets not forget Clinton's ability to catch and run, kinda Westbrook style, but greater, stronger, quicker! Washington's defence? Great pick ups in the draft to add on to what was already solid. Lets not forget how well rested this redskins defence will be with the running game that their offence provides! Just watch! |
Lets take a reality check here for a moment.
There is no doubt whatsoever that the greatest active Quarter-back in the world is Peyton Manning. There is absolutely no one to compare him with. He stands alone. Last year though, Halfway through the season, Donovan Mcnabb showed superiority over Peyton. A whole lot of those throws were to the tight end 3rd Wide Reciever and 4th Wide Reciever. Way way down the field! Kinda like what Carson Palmer is able to do. First of all, Carson Palmer has Chad Johnson to throw to, which is HUGE! T.J. Houshmandzadeh is a solid #2. R.Johnson is an amazing option for C.Palmer, he adds the kinda gold Westbrook adds to the Eagels. Now for the Real Bets: NFC NORTH Winner:Chicago Bears = 1.33 AFC WEST Winner:San Diego Chargers=1.57 NFC SOUTH Winner:Carolina Panthers=3.00 NFC EAST Winner:Washington Redskins=7.50 NFC Champions Chicago Bears = 6.00 Philadelphia Eagles = 8.00 Washington Redskins = 26.00 AFC Champions San Diego Chargers = 6.00 Indianapolis Colts = 6.00 Cincinnati Bengals = 10.00 Superbowl *~*~*~*~*~* The bookies have the New England Patriots favorites to win the superbowl and the New Orlean Saints are the favorites to be in the superbowl from the NFC. Funny thing is, netiher of these teams are capable of making it to the superbowl. So who will win the superbowl? I'll tell you! Not at this particular moment though. I want to see a few things first. Pre-season does not offer clear vision. Too many key players would change the circumstances of who is actually gonna be able to be in the superbowl to win it. Those players are : P.Manning and his tools. L.Tomlinson D.Mcnabb C.Portis If the above 4 players and key units around them are all in health at the end of the regular season, then the superbowl will be: San Diego Chargersvs Philadelphia Eagles It would be an amazing superbowl! Indianapolis Colts vs Philadelphia Eagles Colts would win it. San Diego Chargers vs Washington Redskins Washington would win. Indianapolis ColtsvsWashington Redskins It would be an amazing superbowl! If any of those players are not healthy at the end of the regular season, simply eliminate the above games that involve the team without their ace. Add to the equation the Chicago Bears form the NFC, and the Cincinnati Bengals from the AFC The Bears would beat the Chargers and lose to the Colts. The Bengals would beat the Eagels but lose to the Redskins. The Bengals would beat the Bears. |

I haven't read the whole thread but I have popped in and out at times.
Ok, thanks. |
I'll make i easy for you...
These we're some of the predictions last year: *~*~*~*~**~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Auburn at home against Georgia. This is a lot closer than it looks, Georgia will stop this Auburn offence. ...and just imagine how easy this -13,5 point spread will be if Georgia score a touchdown or two. Georgia 37-15 Auburn(-13,5) ...WIN *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Texas A&M at home against Nebraska. Lets not fool ourselves here, Texas A&M won some predictable matches, even as underdogs, you could see it coming, but Hello!! Nebraska's coming here with purpose, and I can't see how Texas A&M can stop them, and to top all that Nebraska are -1,5 point underdogs? Nebraska 28-27 Texas A&M(-1,5) ...WIN *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Arkansas at home against Tennessee. You know, Tennessee may actually be a better team than Arkansas, but they certainly do show their good faces at home...but their not at home this week. Arkansas is. I'll take the home side here, even with the 5,5 point spread Arkansas(-5,6) 31-14 Tennessee ...WIN *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Syracuse at home against Conneticut. I've watched a lot of Syracuse matchups this year, and they've played some really good football against teams that were a lot better than Conneticut, I'm really impressed with their offence, and I think they're gonna beat this team by a bundle, and they have motive as well. Their win pays 2,30.. take it! Syracuse 20-14 Conneticut WIN=2,30 *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Michigan@Ohio State It dosen't get much better than this! I feel kinda silly talking about this game as there are various opinions on this one and it is one of the most talked about subject in sports in N.America these days, but i must! What does this game really come down to? Michigans defence against this super Ohio State offence. Having watched them both with an open mind , i have to say that there isn't really any competition It won't be as easy as the Texas game, but lets be real, Ohio State IS the #1 team in the country, and come Saturday Michigan will not be #2, and they really aren't now, i mean , not really. Everyone was so impressed with the predictable win over the dodgy Irish that I just so happened to call. Ohio State will win, the 3,5 pays 1,60 and that looks like the best way to wager on this event. I mean the 6,5 spread pays what? 1,70? ..so as you can see, this is not a pointspread kinda game. Ohio State 42-39 Michigan Loss=1,60 *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Ohio - Southern Mississippi(-6,5) The difference between theese two teams is really big, and although most bowl games so far have been close regardless of teams differences, I can't see this one being remotely close. Bet on the Southern Mississippi Southern Mississippi(-6,5) 28-7 Ohio ........................WIN *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* BCS Championship Florida - Ohio State(-7,5) There is no doubt that Ohio State is the best team in the country. Florida will not be able to stop their offence. Although Ohio State's defence is not up to par, you'd have to imagine this being a high scoring game and Ohio State should win by a few scores. Bet on Ohio State Florida won easily *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Chick-fil-A Bowl Georgia - Virginia Tech(-3,5) I'd like to think that Georgia can take this with their amazing defence. I'm certain they'll step it up for this one. 3,5 points is a security blanket here in what will be a low scoring game. Bet on Georgia Georgia 31-24 Virginia Tech(-3,5) ....................WIN *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Outback Bowl Tennessee(-4,5) - Penn State All year round Tennessee has played some pretty good football. Earlier in the season this would have looked like an easy win for the volunteers. Penn State has certainly improved as the year went on, and this 4,5 spread is wrong. I think the Penn State will play as Lionhearts and win this very cool matchup that I anticipate watching more than most of the others. Bet on Penn State! Penn State 20-10 Tennessee(-4,5) .....................WIN *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Rose Bowl USC - Michigan(-1,5) This will probably have higher ratings than the championship game. Everyone is talking about Michigan and I don't buy it. I've made some good money on both teams this year and I have watched them both closely. What i can't understand is the commentators who are refering to this Michigan offence like its ohio state. I respect their defence, but IMO, their offence is gonna have a hard time in this one and USC will get a very easy win. To actually see Michigan here as 1,5 point favorites is a very big suprise to me. Bet on USC! USC 32-18 Michigan(-1,5) .................................WIN *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* |
NFL Pre-season week 4
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* It would be silly to wager serious money on games that are made up for practice. Especially when the regular season is right around the corner. If you do decide to gamble today, do NOT be betting against the home teams no matter how it looks on paper. I personally am not putting anything on any game this week. However i can imagine imagery being set up for the teams that are being pushed on the public. Both teams just happen to be at home this week, so N.O and N.E look like safe bets. Next entry will be for week 1!!! |
New Orlean Saints @ Indianapolis Colts(-6.5)
The season opener will have quite a bit of money wagered on it. The spread will push many who believe that the Saints are a good team to wager on them. No doubt, the Colts are by far a better team than this full of holes Saints team, however,the lack of media influence deters me from recommending the Colts as a sure bet. It seems possible that more money can be made by pushing a false image further than these first week as plenty of heavy long term bets have yet to be made. Avoid *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Pitchberg Steelers(-5.5) @ Clevland Browns This Steelers team has expired. This growing Browns team will win this division 3-4 years from now. That might take a few seasons of finishing below .500 for draft purposes as I'm sure their views on success is projected for 2010-2012, however the Clevland Browns are playing at home in week 1. We can expect them to win this game. What makes this a second nature wager is the fact that they are actually 5,5 point underdogs. Bet on the Browns! *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Miami Dolphins @ Washington Redskins(-3.0) I would easily recommend the Redskins here as they should win, but i cannot as it will be a very low scoring game, based on the fact that the Redskins will run the ball against one of the greatest defences in the game, and the under par Dolphins offence will also be forced to run against this amazing Redskins pass defence. So instead of picking a team here, i will strongly urge you to wager on the Under here, its only 34,5 points, but, you'll see. Bet on the Under (34,5) *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Philadelphia Eagles(-3,5) @ Green Bay Packers I have seen some brainwashing here,lol. They've been leading people to believe that the Packers have a great defence. Ok, so its not bad, but gimme a break. If this was week 3-4, i would jump all over the Eagles, but offences do need some time to gel, add to that the tricky 3,5 point spread and you've got a bet that is not as good as it looks. Avoid *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Denver Broncos (-3.5) @ Buffalo Bills I really want to recommend the Bills here, as they are a better team, at home, and underdogs. I mean, the Broncos are really gonna have a hard time scoring as this Bills defence is certainly well matched and more up to par than the Broncos offence. I'm pretty close to recommending the under(37,5) here as well, but then again what if my original Bills theory is right on the money and they kill the Broncos at home? Avoid *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Kansas City Chiefs @ Houston Texans(-2.5) The Texans have clearly improved from last year. The running back addition gives them a much more balanced offence which should also improve their passing game. They should win at least 5 games this year. I'm not sure they'll win this one though. The difference in OL's is huge here and should be evident in this match-up. I'm kinda suprised to see the Texans favorites, however i cannot recommend either team as this game is a toss-up. Avoid *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Tennesee Titans @ Jacksonville Jaguars(-7.0) I'll prove my point in this one. Heavy media influence here:Jacksonville this, the Jaguars that...lol, superbowl prone? hows that? Evenly matched teams, The Titans are very unpreditable, this above par Jaguars defence will have a hard time stopping this offence from scoring. I can't understand why they've made a 7.0 point spread. This game could just as easily be won by the Titans, I'll throw this one in the Mix. Bet on the Titans *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* New England Patriots(-7,5) @ New York Jets It will take some time for the Jets offence to play to their full potential. They are overall a better team than the Patriots. Team in its full meaning that is. A Team meaning exactly what the Patriots are far from being. The unbeatable 2008 superbowl champs eh? lol I talk football, its what i do, and i've yet to meet an average football fan who hasn't been influenced by this on-going media brainwashing regarding this years Patriots. N.E kinda reminds me of the Brazilian national soccer team today. 11 guys on a pitch, playing together for a few weeks, all coming from different schools in different countries=not a team. 7,5 point favorites against the potential division winners? Bet on the Jets *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Carolina Panthers @ St. Louis Rams(-1.5) This is a close one. The Rams offence will do really well as the Panthers are not equipped to handle the rams passing game. However I cannot underestimate the Panthers who are capable of winning this game. The spread is correct. Avoid *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Atlanta Falcons @ Minnesota Vikings(-3.0) I'm afraid its too early to give a pick as here as they game is so far away, and I'm 100% sure we will have some media intervention in this one. Stand by for sure money here. Chicago Bears @ San Diego Chargers(-5.5) A possible superbowl matchup here as both teams are of the absolute elite. This is one of the best bets of the week! This game is a miss-match! Its week 1, defences are ready, offences need time to gel. The Chargers with LT are the ultimate running team, but they're up against the greatest running defence the NFL has seen in quite some time. Tomlinson vs Ulracher=Ulracher wins...just watch! Now the Bears offence will also struggle in this game, but consider the fact that the Chargers will be forced to pass, this should provide some points from the Bears defence. It is more than likely that the Bears will win this game, and with the Chargers 5,5 point favorites, we'd be crazy not to wager on this one. Bet on the Bears!!! *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Tampa Bay Bucs @ Seattle Seahawks(-6.5) Ok, so I don't think the seahawks will finish the season above .500, but they should win this one against this very poor Bucs team. 6,5 points however on a mediocre team is quite a bit. Avoid *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Detroit Lions @ Oakland Raiders(-1.5) The Raiders are easily a better team than the Lions, and their record at the end of the year will prove it, however this particular game hides some suprises as the Lions will benefit offencivley as there are some miss-matches against this defence. Avoid *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* New York Giants @ Dallas Cowboys(-6.5) Both the Giants and the Cowboys are great teams. This should be a great match-up This is a potential bet as many will focus their money here. Awaiting media influence........ Stand by for prediction *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Baltimore Ravens @ Cincinnatti Bengals(-2.5) Don't be confused here, the Bengals will win this division, however, they will lose this divisional game at home. I repeat, defences are ready, offences(especially passing offences) need time to gel. This amazing bengals passing offence is facing the best passing defence in the game. It is at this time, a miss match. Bet on the Ravens *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Arizona Cardinals @ San Fransisco 49ers(-3.5) This game is full of miss matches on both offencive/defencive sides. Arizona's passing game should have a field day against this 49ers defence. On the other hand, Gore will easily score a few and pass 100 yards by the 3rd quarter. This game will have too many scores to determine the difference at this time. Avoid |

Five to watch in 2007/8
1) LaDainian Tomlinson (running back San Diego Chargers):
"I think he's the best player in the league. He can run, catch, block and even pass. The Chargers have complete faith in him and he delivers every time. He's a terrific talent." 2) Steven Jackson (running back St Louis Rams) "A Pro Bowl running back and the NFL's Offensive Player of the Year. No other running back generated more yards from scrimmage last season and he should be devastating again this year." 3) Peyton Manning (quarterback Indianapolis Colts) "The man that led the Colts to Super Bowl glory last season. His greatest asset is his preparation. He's a real student of the game who always seems one step ahead of opposition." 4) Terrell Owens (wide receiver Dallas Cowboys) "'TO' writes his own headlines and the big ego seems happy in Dallas. He performed brilliantly for the Cowboys last season, leading the NFL in touchdown catches. Expect the same this year." 5) Ben Roethlisberger (quarterback Pittsburgh Steelers) "Ben led the Steelers to their Super Bowl triumph in 2006, but he struggled last year after an off-season motorbike accident. He has the weapons and the receivers to do well again this year." |
Quarterbacks
1)Peyton Manning The man is without a doubt the greatest active QB in the league. One could certainly argue that he's the best there ever was. I wouldn't argue with them, he's as close to perfect as i've seen. 2)Donovan McNabb Fight with me all you want on this one, if you didn't see him last year, then you have no idea. Health is his key issue, otherwise he'd be wearing a ring. If he lasts this year, he most likely will. 3)Carson Palmer Sure his options are plentyfull making his job easier, but i doubt the QB's ranked lower would do any better in his position. 4)Tony Romo He's everything the Cowboys we're looking for, and despite having a weak OL and holes in the defence, he will possibly contend for a spot in the playoffs. 5)Phillip Rivers His numbers at the end of the year will not agree with me, but the young man IMO he is the 5th ranked QB in the NFL *~*~*~Less than= T.Brady: put the man behind the Texans OL, and you've got a headless chicken running around ..he would be replaced in week 5 D.Brees=He's not all that, he probably ranks 6th in my list...certainl not a top 3 QB as listed by others. B.Roethlisberger:lol dude Running Backs 1)Ladanian Tomlinson Without a doubt, the best RB in the NFL...he will shine along with his team for many years to come. 2)Clinton Portis Without a doubt and by far the 2nd best RB in the game. Again, health has been a serious issue. If he plays, by the end of the year, you can look back on this post and agree. 3)Frank Gore Again, he takes this 3rd spot without competition. He is the SF 49ers...without him, his team would be without a win this year. 4)Steven Jackson One of the main reasons for his success is his teams passing game which results in him running against dimes and quarters, however, he is just a touch better than the rest of them 5)Brandon Jacobs I'm sure a lot of you are saying WTF? but hey, just watch!! *~*~*~Less than= L.Johnson:His fame began starting behind what was the best OL in the game at the time. He took Holmes spot(another mediocre RB). Let him run for the Dolphins and you'd see just how mediocre he is. lol@the money he got. J.Addai: Hello! He plays with P.Manning. (He would be the #3 RB if he played for SD) Wide Recievers 1)Steve Smith Its a pretty tight matchup for top WR, but I gotta give it to this guy, he is an amazing athlete who would make any QC look good. 2)Chad Johnson Don't let his celebrity status fool you, he's as good as the guy above him. He's impossible to cover. 3)Marvin Harrison Although 3rd place may seem unjust, keep in mind that he does have the best QB in the game throwing to him. 4) Lavernius Coles His hands are just as good as T.Owens if not better, the thing about this guy, is he's actually better than T.O after the catch. Watch him shine this year! 5)Terrel Owens There are so many WR's that could fit in this slot, but the fact is, that this guy does cause inbalances in defences as he is double teamed most of the time. ......Less than: There are none really, i suppose i've left out some great WR's that could easily fit in to the #4,5 slot. I suppose the one gu that is less than is Moss. |
Tight Ends
1)Anotnio Gates He stands alone.. the Tiger woods of the Tight end position. 2)Tony Gonzales He was the best till Gates came around. 3)Jeremy Shockey A true leader with amazing stamina, tough, and his hands are too good. Defence 1)Chicago Bears Its been the best for quite a few years now, no one can argue that. 2)Baltimore Ravens And to think they built it with very small contracts, otherwise it could never been achieved. 3)Miami Dolphins They remain the 3rd best defence in the game, it will be there last year though as they grow old 4)San Diego Chargers It does have a weakness or two, but the pass rush is of the absolute elite ranking them in the 4th slot 5)Hrmmm, Redskins Eagels Broncos Patriots Steelers Jaguars could all take this spot. |
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Atlanta Falcons @ Minnesota Vikings(-3.0) Quote:
No media intervention needed either, i mean, is there ANYBODY that will be betting on the falcons?? ...nope. Ask anyone.....they'll say:Atlanta sucks without Vick. so 1)All the money is on the Vikings...hrmm=where the money is laid, it gets taken away. Now on the field: What was Vick's quality anyway? .. .....He could run. He couldn't throw, but he could run. Now lets take a closer look. The Vikings are one of the best run defences in the game, their numbers proved that last year, against the pass, they suck. Fact, if Vick was playing(running), the Vikings would have stopped him, its what they do. Now, the Falcons have a QB that CAN actually throw the ball. SO in this particular matchup, its actually a blessing that Vick isn't playing. Bet on the Falcons!!! *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* New York Giants @ Dallas Cowboys(-6.5) Quote:
I figure around 75% of it will be on the Cowboys. The teams are evenly matched in my opinion, Dallas has the home field advantage though. Lets take a closer look.............. Terry Glenn is not going to play. If you watched last year, you'd know how good of an option he was while T.O was double covered. So whats left? The OL sucks, think Giants pass rush. The Cowboys can't run the ball. Plus, offences like the cowboys need time to gel. Ok, so young manning sucks, but think Shockey for a sec. HELLO..... BRANDON JACOBS!!!!!! ...just watch this year...he does have a heavy DL in front of him, but don't forget, along with amazing power, the man has speed. I say the Giants beat this America favorite team. Bet on the Giants! *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* |
Rough week for the ol' W.HI.P.per. Week one never goes expectedly... weird stuff happens
|
Yes, it was a rough week.
I'll still be between 85-90% at the end of the year. Results... Clevland Browns 7-34 Pitchberg Steelers(-7,5) = Loss Washington Redskins 16-13 Miami Dolphins = (Under 34,5) WIN Tennessee Titans 13-10 Jacksonville Jaguars(-7,0) = WIN New York Jets 14-38 New England Patriots(-7,5) = Loss Atlanta Falcons 3-24 Minnesota Vikings(-3,0) = Loss Chicago Bears 3-14 San Diego Chargers(-5,5) = Loss New York Giants 35-45 Dallas Cowboys(-6,5) = Loss Still playing.. Baltimore Ravens-Cincinnati Bengals(-2,5) I did not like what i saw in the Giants-Cowboys game. Extreme weakness in both teams. If i was a fan of either team, I would feel like the season is already over. Poor Bills, they outplayed the Broncos and lost. I feel very confident now in my very large long term bet on the Panthers winning their division (3,50) as all teams(Saints, Falcons, Bucs) we're unable to score a TD from their offence. The long term Redskins bet at (7,50) also look good with the Eagles loss and the NYG-cowboys looking extremely weak on the defencive side. |
The football pool guy at work told me he only paid off on one pool last weekend, out of hundreds.
|
Lets take a peak at how our 4 Rec's for the world series are doing:
1) Cleveland Indians -- 2) Detroit Tigers -6.5 1) Los Angelos Angels -- 2) Seattle Mariners -9.5 1) New York Mets -- 2) Philadelphia Phillies -6.0 1) Milwakie Brewers -- 2) Chicago Cubs -1 3) St.Louis Cardinals -4 ....its starting to look like our hockey season last year!! |
N.F.L Week:2
*~*~*~*~*~* *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Atlanta Falcons @ Jacksonville Jaguars(10,5) 10,5 points may seem like a lot, but in this case it looks right to me. The Falcons bid last week was based on $$$, not that they have a team, with or without Vick, its simply a weak division. The Jaguars lost to Tennessee at home(one of my few wins) last week despite the many turnovers. The didn't look too good. Of course they have to win, and they should ..4-7-10-17, whats the difference? *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Indianapolis Colts(-7,0) @ Tennessee Titans Don't take into acount last years game. The Colts were resting. Fact is, this Colts offence should have a field day against this Par Titans defence. The Titans will score as well, but I would be suprised if they won. 7 points seems about right. I'm leaning towards the Colts, but not enough to wager on it. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Cincinnati Bengals(7,5) @ Clevland Browns I can't wait to see Quinn's debut in week 4 or 5. This matchup is lop-sided, but not as much as last year. Do not underestimate the Browns this year. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Houston Texans @ Carolina Panthers(-7.0) Good wins for both teams in week 1. The Panthers will win this, and it should be more than 7 points. There are better games further down that demand greater attention than this one. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Green Bay Packers(-3,5) @ New York Giants LOL The reason the Packers are favorites is because Jacobs and Manning aren't going to play..... well, the Giants defence looked pretty bad last week. I'm not going to recommend this game, but if you need an extra bet to wager on, this would be the one...On the Giants of course! *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* New Orlean Saints(-3,5)-Tampa Bay Bucs If the Saints are gonna manage to pull off 3-4 wins this year, this would be one of them. No matter how bad this bucs offence is however, they will score against this full of holes Saints defence. The spread looks about right, it could go either way on the spread. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Buffalo Bills @ Pitchberg Steelers(10,5) The Bills should have won last week as they clearly outplayed the Broncos. The steelers offence didn't look to bad last week, but this week they're facing a very good team. I would not be suprised at all if the Bills won this game, 10,5 points is insaine here. Bet on the Bills *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* San Fransisco 49ers @ St.Louis Rams(-3,5) These 2 teams are competiting for top spot in this easy division. I do believe the 49ers will win that race, but they may split wins. This one would be the one the Rams would win. As a bet the 49ers side looks better. This one is too close to call. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Seattle Seahawks(-3,5) @ Arizona Cardinals Arizona looked a lot better than I expected them, they would have and should have beaten the 49ers last week. The 49ers that are far better than Holmgreen's Seahawks. Leaning towards the Cardinals at home, but again, not enough to wager on it. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Dallas Cowboys(5,5) @ Miami Dolphins My friend(Dolphins fanatic) is gonna kill me for giving this pick, as He is most certainly sure that his team will lose. I disagree. Yes, the Cowboys offence looked pretty good, but their defence was absolutely terrible. And Don't be expecting the cowboys OL to be pushing this Dolphins defence back, this weeks another story. This weak Dolphins offence should score more points this week than any other this year. I had no idea the Cowboys defence had become this bad..allowing the giants almost 500 yards without Jacobs! Imagine if he would have lasted the game! Dolphins all the way, these cowboys are gonna have a bad year. Like, no playoffs. Bet on the Dolphins *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Minnesota Vikings @ Detroit Lions(-3.0) If Minneota could stop the pass, this game would be a gimme as the Vikings are superior. If the Vikings can keep the ball and run it down their throats, the'll manage to win this as Detroit is a mediocre team. 2-0 for the lions sounds ridiculous. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Kansas City Chiefs @ Chicago Bears(13,5) The Bears looked fantastic last week holding LT to minus yards in the first half. The Chargers had to find magic to beat em'. The Bears have clearly a better team than last year, if the offence can pick it up, they'll be in the NFC championship game at least. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* New York Jets @ Baltimore Ravens(-7.0) 2nd and goal from the 2 yard line, 7 points down, plenty of time on the clock, what do you do against a team that can't stop the run?? I wonder..lol .....well you certainly don't throw the ball like the Ravens did twice last week against the Bengals, what were they thinking? *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Oakland Raiders-Denver Broncos(10,5) If you need an extra game to bet on, here's one. The Raiders we're miss-matched last week, but thats not the case this week. The Raiders are clearly better than last year, and the Broncos, despite the additions should again end up out of the playoffs. I can't contemplate where the 10,5 points come from. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* San Diego Chargers @ New England Patriots(-3,5) Brady is a mediocre QB. The only reason he seems above par is because he's got 30 seconds to throw the ball on each snap against most teams. If he's gonna get sacked this year, it'll be against the greatest pass-rushing defence in the game(Chargers). LT was stopped by the Bears, but trust me, the Patriots are not the Bears, he'll have a career day. Easy win for the Chargers, no competition. Bet on the Chargers!!! *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Washington Redskins @ Philadelphia Eagles(-7,5) Easily the best bet of the week! The Redskins are made up for their division. They're gonna beat all 3 teams in their division starting this week. My team cannot stop their offence, and my teams offence is miss-matched against this great pass defence. Westbrook is the key to moving the ball down the field, but I'm afraid he won't be enough. Another low-scoring game, so you can take the under, but most certainly take the Redskins with this point-spread as i can't see how their gonna lose this game. i can't believe my Eagles are gonna start the year 0-2. They should have thought about that last week. Bet on the Redskins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* |
Shouldn't Kansas City be getting the 13.5 points instead of the Bears?
|
Has the New England cheating news affected the line at all?

Quote:
And KC's defence cannot compare with SD's ....Chicago will win, its just a large spread. Quote:
The spread of course is based more on where the money be laid rather than reality. My clean theory on them beating the Jets last week was the fact that it was a 1pm game. Too many games at that time, money is spread around. Although the bookies clearly lost money on that game to the masses. The money bet on that game was merely a fraction of what will be placed on the Patriots Sunday night. Anyway you look at this game, it belongs to the Chargers. My theory on the Colts-Saints game was placd into effect in the Patriots Jets game. I really hope the readers of this thread can grasp the fact that the patriots are not a superbowl contender. Money does control this game like it or not. The Patriots did cheat, and that sucks, but i'm sure they're not the first to do it, they simply got caught. |
Hmmm, my pool is giving KC 14 points.

Quote:
The Bears are -13,5. All spreads are minus. |
Oh, sorry. I didn't realize the 6 spreads not marked minus should be minus also. My bad.

How to bet:
Based on the picks: 1) Redskins over Eagles(-7,5) 2) Dolphins over Cowboys(-6,5) ...its 6.5 from 5,5 now. 3) Bills over Steelers(-10,5) 4) Chargers over Patriots(-3,5) You could do it 2 ways: A): Take a base:Redskins, and make 3 tickets combining the other games: 1st Ticket:Redskins/Dolphins/Bills 2nd Ticket:Redskins/Dolphins/Chargers 3rd ticket:Redskins/Bills/Chargers Bet $1.000 on each ticket=$3.000 At 7/1...Win all games and cash in $21.000 Lose a game other than the Redskins and cash in $7.000 B): Combine all games in 4 tickets: 1st Ticket:Redskins/Dolphins/Bills 2nd Ticket:Redskins/Dolphins/Chargers 3rd ticket:Redskins/Bills/Chargers 4th ticket:Dolphins/Bills/Chargers Bet $1.000 on each ticket=$4.000 At 7/1...win all games, Cash in $28.000 Lose any game and cash in $7.000 That is the way I recommend wagering this week. But if you want to add another game(5) With a base=6 tickets Without a base=10 tickets Add 2 more games(6) With a base=10 tickets Without a base=20 tickets 7 games With a base=15 tickets Without a base=35 tickets 8 games With a base=21 tickets without a base=56 tickets The more games, the more defencive the gamble. This week, personally I've wagered: 1st Ticket:Redskins/Dolphins/Bills $1.000 2nd Ticket:Redskins/Dolphins/Chargers $1.000 3rd ticket:Redskins/Bills/Chargers $1.000 4th ticket:Dolphins/Bills/Chargers $500 I also have 3 seperate series of tickets with smaller amounts wagered: 1st series:Base=Redskins/Chargers with Colts/Panthers/Giants/49ers/Cardinals/Vikings/Bears/Raiders 2nd series:Base=Redskins/Dolphins with Colts/Panthers/Giants/49ers/Cardinals/Vikings/Bears/Raiders 3rd series:Base=Redskins/Bills with Colts/Panthers/Giants/49ers/Cardinals/Vikings/Bears/Raiders =3 series of 8 bets=24 bets This way, If i win my base(Redskins), and lose two of my other bases, and do well on the rest of my picks, i will get most of money at least. On the other hand, should i do well on my bases, I will be heavily involved in the rest of the games mentioned. |
that is so confusing!
let me just say......Go Cowboys! The Dolphins will be the unfortunate recipients of an inspired defensive smack down in response to the piss poor performance of opening day. 24-3 final score. Marion Barber will punch 2 in from inside the red zone, Crayton on a deep route and a field goal chip in early. either that, or my crystal ball is AFU. |
My pool requires a minimum of 4 games and the Eagles/Redskin game isn't on it.
Giants, Bills, Dolphins & Chargers. |
Quote:
The net income of a bookie that requires 4 is much much greater than that of a (fair) bookie who requires 3. Thief would be a better term. Quote:
Quote:
The deep route sounds possible, but Marion from the inside ain't gonna be happening against the Dolphins. |
