Early week 7 plays:

Den/NE o46'

NYJ/Oak u43'

GB +1'

NO +3

SD pk

Bal/Mia o34

Ind/GB u49

Den +4

Min/Chi u40

I've been only listing a few of my plays here per week so far. I believe I'm 11-11 on posted plays, but I'm actually 20-15 overall, so I'm just going to post them all now

Lines are getting tighter, most of these are slim margins imo, and about half have already moved to reflect that.

I agree. Line shopping is going to be more important now, from this point forward, more than ever.
 
Spreads from proline.ca (Ontario)

Anyone see anything I should take advantage of here?

WEEK SEVEN PLAYS:

Chicago (-3): 3 units

Green Bay (+2): 3 units

Denver (+3): 5 units

 
After a week off to try to get back on track I'll work to improve my 11-11 posted plays record. Here are my picks this week:

Indy -1.5

Cinci +9.5

Oak +3

Buffalo (PK)

Titans -9

on a side note, anyone ever used the site linesmaker.com or know anything about its reputation?

 
So I'm headed to Vegas Sunday, in time for the SNF and MNF. Any leans on those two games? I'm staying at the Mirage, any experience there or recommendations for other sports books?

 
I think the best bets for the week look like the Broncos and the Bills.

And Raider Nation is definately right about those home dogs, I'm not suggesting the Chiefs and Bengals are good teams, but they seem like very good picks this week. I've been quite lucky this year hitting over 70% of my picks, and I am sure picks like the Cheifs and Bengals will help me get right back to paying my bookie a lot of money. Here is the beginning of the end

 
Last week: 3-1

Overall: 22-9-3

================================

Here are this week's picks:

CHICAGO -3. The Bears are the better team here, and this is a traditionally home dominated series. Vikings have won two in a row, but were outyardaged big time in the Saints game, and struggled to beat Detroit at home.

MIAMI -3. I was probably the only one picking against Baltimore last week. Flacco is just not ready to be starting in the NFL yet. They were able to hide him at home and win against weaker teams with their dominating defense. This is the kind of team that exhibits a strong home/road split, and that's why I picked against them last week, and will again this week. They are going to need Flacco to make some plays on the road to cover.

Denver +3. I think the wrong team is favored here, you do have a good QB going on the road against a team struggling in pass defense. Also, while much has been made of teams travelling West to East, since 1993. In games where a West team travels East and plays at night, though, the Western road team is 14-14 SU and 15-12-1 ATS, so it doesn't seem to be a disadvantage for night games.

Dallas -7. The Rams are a general play on for the rest of the yr, and were last week, but I will play against them here. They beat Washington without scoring an offensive touchdown, so it is not like they completely turned things around. Dallas has been underwhelming recently, but the Romo injury has lowered this line to a solid value, and I think they come out with a solid game against a team with problems on both sides of the ball.

Seattle +11. See night note above. This pick is made with the belief that Seneca Wallace, and not Charlie Frye, will be starting at QB. Frye is terrible, and this line is pretty big. If Wallace is just okay, should be a cover on Sunday night.

 
Last week: 1-1

Overall 10-6-1

I really like this weeks card and so am offering 4 games this week.

Buff pk San Diego's defense just isn't playing well without Merriman. It'll be close but take Buff.

Mia -3 Miami has some sound leadership and the players have bought in. Flaccos troubles will continue.

Oak+3 I think this is a winnable game for Oakland. This dog has teeth

NYG -12 Ok so dd dogs have barked this year. J.T. is just awfull and teams now have film on him and have figured out how to force him into mistakes.

Good luck and remember to keep your powder dry.

 
I posted the following Pittman line in the Free For All...

At Bodog, Pittman at Over 68.5 yards rushing (-115) is free money.

New York was commonly -11 when it went off on Sunday. I actually got -10' as did many others without buying down. On Saturday you could get New York for 11 no problem. I didn't like the fact that -12 was the posted number at the top of the thread. Without an updated line I went with the posted number. I will however be taking credit for a win and not a push in my totals as -12 did not in any way reflect the line by Saturday. Even more so considering I posted Sunday morning.

Yes, I'm aware that this response now looks me look like an arzehole. Although, contrary to popular belief -- I am NOT psychic. How was I supposed to know Jay Cutler's pinky finger would shrink from the spotlight and break itself tonight?
Had Cutler's pinky been healthy, do you think New England would have rushed for fewer than 600 yards?
