  1. took Houston -13, Baylor -3, and Texas in basketball against UCLA and -1 The Houston bet is not looking good early, the dude from Houston dropped a TD pass and after that they had to punt which led to a South. Miss TD.

    Playoff Defenses!

    I'm rolling with the Dolphins D this week....dropped Seattle D on Wednesday for them I picked up the Lions D, leaving on the bench this week of course (@NO) but will be using them in week 14 (vsMIN)...after this week I will be dropping Miami's D for Tennessee's D and will leave them on my bench during week 14 and have them for week 15 and 16 (@IND, vsJAC)
  3. I usually always take the underdog and the points when its like that...but New Mexico is really bad. I did take CSU when the played FSU back in like week 2 and I took Missouri St. when the played Oregon in week 3...had 55 points in both games, and won both games. New Mexico might not be that bad of a bet. Went 3 for 3 tonight...Took UCLA and the points, took UCLA to go over 17 1/2 pnts total, and took Oregon to stay under 49 1/2 pnts total. Leaning toward taking New Mexico and the points, Houston and -13, and Baylor -3...might change it up though by noon tomorrow we will see.

    *** Official Week 13 NFL Gambling Thread***

    I usually do a 4 team ML parlay, but consider going up 1 and doing a 5 team ML parlay this week with the Bears, Jets, Falcons, 49ers, and Packers all winning. The only think I don't like about it is 3 out of 5 of them teams are on the road. Considering taking the over in the Jets/Redskins game and the Bengals/Steelers game...not for sure which one yet though. Maybe both depending on how many prob bets I like come Sunday. GridIronAssassin#1 where you been all week? I was interested to see if anything was sticking out to you that you liked or dislike.
  5. I said before the draft that I wouldn't be afraid to take Forster or Peyton if the value was right. I had the 10th pick in a 12 team league. Forster went at 7 in the first round, and Peyton was there in the 3rd round 10th pick so I took him. That was about 12 days before the first game of the season and everything was up in the air. I just couldn't believe Peyton Manning would miss any time, and for the 10th pick in the 3rd round I thought was gwtting good value for a top 5 fantasy QB. Luckily a few rounds later I took Stafford who has been the 5th best fantasy QB so far. I also drafted Megatron in the 2nd round who has been off the charts this year but I drafted Mendenhall with the 10th pick in the 1st round and he has had a let down season so I think evened out on that. Beanie Wells has been a nice surprise but Felix Jones was a let-down so I evened on that as well. Jordy Nelson has really been the boost for my team.

    *** Official Week 13 NFL Gambling Thread***

    I thought you was being sarcastic when you said "Good Advice" earlier and was trying to sell Dallas...my bad mis-understood you, we both agree on it...just stay away from it when it comes to the spread. Nothing good came out of tonights game for me. I picked the Eagles in both of my pickem sheets. In retrospect that was dumb, not because the Seahawks are killing them but because I should knew better than the Seahawks to lose 2 home games in a row. I played the Seahawks defense last week, then dropped them yesterday. Also I betted on the under for the total points in this game.

    Young or Palmer?

    I would play Moore.

    *** Official Week 13 NFL Gambling Thread***

    Me neither. Did take the under tonight on the total points. I like Seattle QB's throwing less the 1 1/2 td's tonight but the odds suck on it so I will pass.

    Dallas past 2 games @WAS W27-24 OT vs MIA W 20-19 Do you think the Redskins and Dolphins are on a different level than the Cardinals? Don't forget, the Redskins/Cardinals played back in week 2 and it was a 1pnt game.

    Tom Brady vs Aaron Rodgers

    Rodgers has been the best player in fantasy this season..he has scored 20+ fantasy points every game the Packers have played this season. If I had Rodgers I would start him every week the Packers played as long as he was active, no matter who my backup is or the matchup. As far as your WR question I think it comes down too Colston vs Vjax, Lloyds matchup takes him out of it IMO. Colston hasn't scored a TD in his past 4 games...I just don't see that continuing. He has been getting the yds though in the past 4 games. Vjax has greater upside with potentially give you 15+ spot but he also has potential to give you 30 yds and no TD. You want be safe go Colston, if you want be a hero then go Vjax.

    I don't know if I "like" Arz +4.5, but I agree with your reasoning. Dallas is not as good as ESPN makes them out to be and the haven't won a road game this year by more than 3 pnts. I look at this game like the Browns/Ravens...just going to stay away from it.

    I like Seattle at home with Vick out but unless I see any prop bets that I like I will be staying away from that game.

    *** Official Week 13 NFL Gambling Thread***

    I would be surprised if Houston came out with a win on Sunday. I know Houston has been a good home team this season and Atlanta has looked shaky on the road but....Atlanta has a top 5 run D and the only thing Houston has going for them on there offense is there run game. Houston also has top 5 run D but Atlanta can air it out when needed. Atlanta 23 Houston 13 Also, I need to stay away from betting on college basketball.

    Some things that are sticking out too me as of right now. The Falcons are only -3 at Houston, and your actually getting plus odds on it. Houston down to there 3rd string QB and the Falcons are rolling...I like it. Total score for the Jets/Redskins game is only at 38 points. The Redskins have scored over 20 points the past 2 games, the Jets have scored over 20 points 5 out of there last 7 games, I like the over on that. Vegas could potentially win a lot of money on the Browns/Ravens game. All 3 of the Ravens losses this year has came to teams they had no business losing too on the road, especially the Jags and Seahawks. Also all of there losses have came off big wins,....they beat San Fran last week on Thanksgiving night and playing in Cleveland this week...I can see why Vegas put the line at 6 1/2. Even with saying all that though I don't think I can pick the Browns on any of my pickem sheets I will turn in this week...just don't have the guts
  18. With 3 games going today I am kinda surprised that somebody hasn't started this yet, so I guess I will start it off. Thank you Megatron for scoring a garbage time TD.

    Keep playing VJAX in the play offs?

    No. Gaffney has only had 3 games this season where he put up over 10 fantasy points, and Moss is coming back from injury. Vjax has had 3 games where has put over 20 fantasy points this season. They both have bad matchups this week and good matchups next week so I would stick to Vjax.
