best bet (6-5) (+40 units)
strong plays (12-13) (-460 units)
regular plays (16-9) (+610 units)

overall (34-27) (+190 units)

had a really bad week for the first time in a while in the nfl. raised my best bet from a 3 unit to a 4 unit and got killed with the lions on thanksgiving. oh well, still on the plus side and that is very good for me in the nfl.


miami +3.5 over buffalo (best bet)...........i know i am crazy, taking the pathetic dolphins. i think miami has some pride left, don't know how, but they do. i think the first improvement the dolphins made was to get rid of their coach. they got their second win last week and now come home and i think they want to give the fans a much deserved win at home. i would tell ricky to drop dead as well. as much of a talent that he is, i don't want him back. who is to say as soon as things don't go his way again, he walks again. i know miami sucks this year, but it is not like buffalo is a great road team either. if miami loses, it will only be by three.

atlanta +2 over tampa bay (strong play).............just riding the hot team here. probably a suckers bet, i know atlanta is due to lose, but there just seems to be something about them this year. solid defense and vick doing just enough to win ball games.

san diego -3 over denver (strong play).....alot like the atlanta game above. chargers at home, only laying three in what has been an impressive year so far. might be a suckers bet too, but i will take my chances. seems like the obvious is winning this year in the nfl.

piottsburgh -3 over jacksonville (regular play).............taking the obvious again. steelers even when they look bad still have been winning games. they would love to get home field and need to continue to win for that.

minnesota -7 over chicago (regular play)...........again, taking the obvious. minny healthy again and bears have no offense at all. pretty good d might slow vikes down. the vikes will score at least 21 and i doubt the bears will put up 14. probably another blowout.

opinions (no write ups)

under 38 detroit/arizona
colts -11 over tennessee


get the feeling this is either going to be a really great week or a really bad week......no inbetweens.

good luck everybody!!

i agree with your vikings pick. bears look lost on offense. both their qbs are awful and their new qb hasn't learned their system yet.

i would have agreed with you a few weeks ago on buffalo but ever since magahee (this might be a typo) became starting rb, their offense has picked up. miami only beat sf last week by 7 after sf turned over the ball 6 times?

i'm looking also at the the colts versus the titans. colts offense is red hot and their at home. titans defense is banged up and mcnair is still hurt. any thoughts on this?

thanks for the write ups.

i have been waiting for the colts offense to slow down, but i don't think it will. i think they are the only team that could go into pittsburgh and beat them right now. payton is having an amazing year. colts should roll
