I once picked every playoff game wrong like 3/4 nfl seasons ago.
6-9 for a weekend sucks, but being 6-13 overall is even worse.
Welp, hopefully I bounce back this weekend.
NCAA:
CLEM -2.5 (buy 1 pt)(
L)(WHAT THE FUCK CLEMSON???)
UGA -2.5 (buy 1 pt) (W)
ND -6.5 (L)
LSU -6.5 (W)
USF +18.5 over UMiami (L)
UMASS +35.5 over Iowa (L)
NFL:
TNF: GB -2.5 (buy 1 point): GB despite a short week looks really good. Washington also looked good though it took them a little bit to get away from the Giants. I think Giants are a lot more horrible than people think and Russell isn't going to change things for them.(
W)
1 PM ET:
CIN -2.5 (buy 1 point) - Browns have an excellent defense and they knew each other very well. In years' past, that Browns game was a game Cincy would lose in a heartbreaker. It looks like they finally got over the hump with a win. I think this will keep going. (W)
DAL -5.5 - Cowboys have belief! Giants are awful. AWFUL, I SAY. I'm a little skittish on this line being this high for a divisional game, but Giants are on the road again and that offense is not something they can fix in 1 week. I think the Cowboys' run game got a big break with Jalen Carter being out before kickoff last week, but Giants shouldn't make a difference for them. Also, Cowboys got a long week to prepare for this. (L)
DET -5.5 - This is an emotional, HIGHLY emotional team. They must be absolutely pissed that they lost to the Pack. I think they come out absolutely GUNS BLAZING this Sunday against a Bears team on a short week that lost a very emotional game. Also, I don't think Dan Campbell or anyone in that team wants to be down 0-2 in their own division. It's tough to come back and win the division title if you start out the season that way. (W)
TEN +5.5 - Rams are traveling across 3 time zones for this, and Titans looked very good against one of the best defenses in the league. Remember, Denver's good! They led the entire NFL in sacks last year. I think Jeffrey Simmons will put a lot of pressure on Stafford. (L)
NE +1.5 - This is more because the Fins are BAD. McDaniel is currently the favorite to be the first coach fired this season. I knew the Fins defense would be bad. I did not think the Fins OFFENSE would be this bad with the weapons they have, and to give up that many points to...Daniel fucking JONES??? (W)
NO +4.5 - This is more about SF than NOLA. Kittle is out. Purdy is out. Shanahan has an awful record when he doesn't have the QB he wants. I think Kellen Moore will take advantage and at least keep this game close (I hope anyway). NOLA? Well, Rattler didn't look good either, but I'll go with Moore and his playcalling over whoever SF's backup is. (L)
NYJ +7.5 (buy 1 point) - Bills won a highly emotional game on Sunday night where they had to claw back to beat the Ravens. Jets have all the confidence in the world right now. Yet...for some reason they are a near TD underdog? At home??? With one of the better rush defenses and pass rushes in the league? Remember, Baltimore could not get ANY pressure on Allen Sunday night. This will be different for him. (L)
PIT -2.5 - Is Aaron back? Maybe. Is Seattle traveling across time zones to play a highly emotional team at home? Yup. Is Sam Darnold awful against good pass rushes? Absolutely. Gimme the terrible towel wavers. (L)
CLE +12.5 - I had this at Baltimore -12.5 simply because I thought they would come out guns blazing like Detroit would. However, the more I thought about it, I realized Cleveland's defense will be just as pissed that they lost. Besides, Flacco against his old team that has a non-existent pass rush? Flacco with all that time in the world? Oh yeah, they're going to be in this game. (L)
4 PM ET:
DEN -2.5 - I had this at Indy initially, but I changed it. Why? Because 1). Miami's defense is trash. 2). Denver's defense is going to be all over Daniel "Indiana" Jones (lol). 3). Indiana Jones is awful against pressure. 4). Denver knows they did not play well. Bo knows he did not play well. This is a get right game against a team that everyone's been talking about all week. Expect the unexpected! (L)
ARI -6.5 - It's one thing when a west coast team has to travel one time zone to the other. It's another when it's the east coast team that has to do it, and it's an east coast team that has not impressed me Week 1. A TD favorite is a bit much, but I'll take Arizona on this one. (L)
KC +1.5 - I initially had Philly, but I changed it. Mahomes as an underdog? At home? With 2 extra days of rest? Yeah this is a get right game. Yes, KC has little to no running game. Yes, Philly also had a long rest week. But imo that doesn't matter to me. This is going to be a close game and KC will be out for revenge. Gimme Pat Mahomes at home with Taylor Swift in the stands. You KNOW that every Swiftie has tried to buy a Chiefs ticket and will be SCREAMING when she shows up at the jumbotron. (L)
SNF:
ATL +4.5 - Atlanta is another team that lost an emotional game. Michael Penix Jr. did EVERYTHING he could to beat TB, but the Koo-Aid man could not make it happen as he sailed his potential game tying FG wide right. I think Atlanta comes back against a Minnesota team that won an emotional game.
MNF:
HOU -2.5 - TB won an emotional game last week. Houston lost a game that they honestly had plenty of chances to win. They're now back at home and should get back right in this game.
LAC -2.5 (buy 1 point) - All aboard Jim Harbaugh and the Harbaugh train! Listen, don't convince me that the Raiders are back. They're not. Pats just played like straight garbage. Idk what the fuck was going on with Vrabel, McDaniels, and Maye, but they won't see any of that when the Chargers come to town, who by the way, had 2 extra days of rest.
